Name: Kalrith Soreden
Race: Onkirus, also known as "The Devil Race" or "daemons" in some parts of the universe.
Age: Approximately a 160. (Species can live to be around 500 years old)
Role Description
Kalrith is a businessman who has been running the crew known as "Arthius" since the Captain who ran the old crew vanished around sixty years ago. There are many rumors about Kalrith being on that crew and being power hungry - no one knows what happened to the old captain or the crew except Kalrith, and he doesn't want to talk about the past or entertain people with such a story. He is very deflective in conversation with anyone who tries to ask him about anything that he considers to be personal in his eyes, and that specific topic is very personal.
The devilish man is the one who traps people into contracts in a variety of ways. He pays more than any other "captain" on the Dakarin, the Lunar Space Port, which was once the moon for a place called Earth, which is now a dead planet as a result of nuclear mass destruction.
Kalrith is known as a man who doesn't take things personally and doesn't show that anything goes deeper than skin level on him. He is usually quiet and observant. His silver tongue enables him to set prices and keep his crew's morale high through financial means.
Most people who do business with him have nothing but negative things to say about him, except that he always keeps his word and is a fantastic businessman when it comes to the type of work that these crews do: transportation, retrieval missions, scouting, and a variety of other forms of work for financial gain.
A little bit about him
When it comes to getting his way, Kalrith is known to push others' boundaries and test his own. He is obsessed with power. Perhaps this is why he has become such a successful businessman in his field. A silver tongue, refusing to take "no" for an answer, and not caring about anyone but himself.
The man takes pleasure in his black licorice cigarillos. He has them specially made for him with a natural charcoal black wrap, and it burns blue and emits purple smoke. If he's out of smokes, he will develop a miserable attitude within four hours, even though he tries to keep his mouth shut when he's on the verge of burning something down from withdrawals. He could be described as an addict.
Kalrith can be caring despite the negativity that he usually exudes with his smart mouth. He may not be the most caring person, but he tries to make his crew feel better than he feels all the time.
Kalrith never forgets a crew member's birthday or when they casually mention how much they enjoy a treat from a particular planet or a dish from a particular culture. Gifts can appear out of nowhere, with no explanation or a threatening note: "keep it to yourself."
He isn't without redeeming qualities.
Racial Abilities & Descriptions
Hypnotic Gaze
Ability: The Onkirus race has eyes that emit a mesmerizing glow, capable of entrancing and manipulating those who make eye contact with them.
Effect: Victims may have altered perceptions, increased susceptibility to suggestion, or even complete loss of control over their actions.
Weakness: The above effect will be terminated by the Onkiru's vocal decision. The ability and its effects can only be redone by the individual requesting or demanding a difference though the Onkirus has to be in visual eye contact with their victim.
Negatives: has to constantly wear sunglasses so he doesn't accidentally make anything worse for himself or anyone else.
Blood Toxins and Poisons
Ability: The Onkirus race is a master of toxic substances, ranging from lethal venom to mind-altering poisons. Toxins and poisons get stored in their bloodstream and do not seem to effect the race at all.
Effects: This species' abilities can cause paralysis, hallucinations, or fatal reactions in its victims. Their blood is toxic.
Weakness: As a result, the race has become extremely sensitive to extreme temperatures, particularly cold. Cold or below-freezing temperatures can temporarily impair their ability to control and manipulate the toxins in their blood. Furthermore, their toxic nature makes them vulnerable to rare antidotes that can neutralize their poisons. The above effects can only be done by getting their blood into the body of another.
Symptoms: The longer an Onkirus is exposed to cold temperatures, the darker its veins become before they go into a seizure-like state and the rest of its organs shut down. This means that the individual has spent too much time in the cold and their internal body temperature has dropped below 140 degrees Fahrenheit, which is significantly lower than the species' internal temperature of over 200 degrees Fahrenheit.
Racial Obligations
The Onkirus race has a few distinct characteristics that allow it to be identified from a long distance. Their skin tone can range from orange-yellow to purplish-red. The devilish characteristics that they possess are similar to the ancient and forgotten texts of numerous religious scriptures. These people are born without souls and may not have one for the first five to ten years of their lives. The stronger their soul and life force, the sooner they will manifest in the form of who they truly are.
Kalrith didn't last long without "Oseille," the physical manifestation of Kalrith's soul and life force. The lamb's symbolism [specifically she is a Dall ewe]. In contrast to Kalrith's masculinity, Oseille is feminine. The lamb represents Kalrith as both suffering and triumphant; it is typically a sacrificial animal, and it may also represent gentleness, innocence, and purity. When combined with the dynamic of Kalrith, the pair can represent a state of elation. Furthermore, the lamb represents sweetness, forgiveness, and meekness. The opposite of what Kalrith presents himself.
Because Oseille is the embodiment of his life force, he must carry her around or keep a constant eye on her. If the little lamb is harmed, Kalrith feels the pain on a higher level, and the same damage forms on his body as Oseille does, and vice versa. Kalrith will perish if Oseille dies.
Kalrith will develop illness symptoms the longer and further they are separated from each other. It will begin gradually and intensify until Kalrith experiences seizure-like symptoms before all of his vital organs shut down and place him in a comatose state.
Racial Prejudice
Because of his race, Kalrith is not permitted to visit many planets or even leave the spaceship. Planets with major banking systems, casinos, official gambling rings, or anything similar that is under legal action - An onkirus is not permitted to be in the building or, in some cases, on the planet due to their abilities and race's reputation for counting cards and cheating in such games.
If he was discovered by law enforcement, surveillance, or someone who wishes to report him for being on such grounds. The man could face a simple warning or up to six months in jail.
The man will be heavily monitored on "peaceful" planets because of his racial ability "Hypnotic Gaze," and it will lead to heavy monitoring once detected on the planet. There will be cases of certain planets' law enforcement not allowing him to get off the docking decks unless he puts a tracking device on. They are known to be malicious individuals who have done heinous things with such power. A reason there are not many left in the universe.
In short, an Onkirus is one hell of an individual to be traveling with.
