Ryik
Name: Eli
Gender: ♂
Age: Unknown (Forgotten) (Adult)
Race: Demon
A devilish race with pointed ears, horns, wings, and a tail. Faster, stronger, more durable, and quicker to recover from injuries than the average human. Similar to an olympic athlete in many categories. Capable of flight, though wings are built for speed and maneuverability rather than endurance and will tire him out quickly. Could probably fly continuously for only a minute, though gliding takes considerably less effort. Flight speed depends on wind but is typically faster than sprinting. As is the norm for fliers, very high speeds can be achieved out of an aerial dive. Resistant to dark-element attacks.
Appearance:
Equipment: None
Personality: Straightforward and light-hearted. Although he can be a bit impulsive, he’s good at keeping calm should things not go as expected. Highly sociable and loves attention, but will often prioritize others before himself.
Background: As an amnesiac, Eli has no idea where he comes from or who he used to be. Seems to be the only one in the Nexus that doesn’t have a room. Accordingly has no token or living quarters and needs to rely on the good graces of others for food that wasn’t gathered from rooms.
Favorite Food: Steak
Ability: Appears to have none?
Weaknesses/Limitations: Weak to light-element attacks. His tail is physically sensitive. (Hidden under clothes, not to be confused with the fake tail coming out of his belt)

vanovick
Name: Layke
Gender: ♀
Age: 12863
Race: Water Elemental.
Body is fully composed of condensed water. This aqueous form is malleable when force is applied, but not capable of applying the force required to distort itself. Repairs to the form will deplete the available water within the body until an amount insufficient to meet the total volume is reached. Further damage to the body will cause her form to destabilize or collapse (causing death) unless external water can be incorporated. Time is required to assimilate fresh/unprocessed water into a fluid usable for self-repair. Assimilation is somewhat faster while resting. Capable of drinking liquids through osmosis. Capable of drinking from contaminated sources. Resists physical, fire, and water attacks.
Appearance:
Equipment: Crab 🦀
Personality: Talking to fish who can’t respond all day has resulted in a confident and committed individual fueled by the need to bring leadership to the unguided masses (of fish.) It is simply her duty to provide assistance from her self-proclaimed position of superiority.
Background: Admiral of the seventh pond, the only pond isolated on an atoll in the sea. Manager of the astrological balance and sealife ambiance of an island within the pond within the atoll. Her one and only job is to assist any beached cetaceans. This species does not exist within her assigned “pond”.
Blissfully unaware that there is land or ocean beyond her pond, lives exclusively on the island within the pond within the atoll.
Favorite Food: Swedish Fish candies.
Ability: Conjuration of aquatic constructs that resemble marine animals. Constructs are capable of performing physical feats similar to their real-life counterparts, but lack any unique functionalities that stem from bodily composition. (Electric eel discharges, venomous spines)
Weaknesses/Limitations: Construct size is proportionate to conjuration time. Tiny fish can be made in less than a second. Creating a 30-pound fish would only take about one second, and creating a great white shark would take about a minute. There is an upper limit to conjured mass in a given period of time, which slowly refreshes over time. Constructs can be destroyed easily if they are small, with greater durability proportional to mass. When destroyed, constructs melt into water which then vanishes after a brief period of time.
Weak to electric and ice attacks. Dehydrates faster in low-humidity environments and can freeze to death in low temperatures.

Mattie_
Name: Kaleb Driver
Gender: Male
Age: 52
Race: Human
Appearance:
Equipment: Dirty spacesuit and a handgun
Personality: Paranoid, untrusting, anxious, volatile, self-conscious, rambling
Background: Space station engineer, face stealing monsters gradually took it over
Favorite Food: Soylento-brand meal gummy - green flavor
Ability: Shapeshift body while total mass remains the same. Can create blades, mouths, extra eyes, horns, whatever. Flesh and blood that is removed from the body remains alive, and instinctively tries to return to the host. Doing so successfully will heal some of the damage taken. If it cannot, it will attempt to eat whatever is nearby to sustain itself until it can. If there is no nearby food, it will gradually wither away. Once dead, it cannot directly rejoin the host and becomes more akin to food for Kaleb. Lost flesh/blood lacks sapience and does not take commands.
Weaknesses/Limitations: Limited to bodily materials, although can approximate other materials with them, such as clothing. Shapeshifting requires a couple of seconds to initiate and complete. Incapable of physically supporting liquid, gaseous, or gummy-like bodily compositions. Excessive stretching causes discomfort and eventually involuntary reformation.
Weak to fire-element attacks.
