[hider=K'eve Vek-Ka 3-1] [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/QxCG055.png[/img][/center] [color=f49ac2]Name:[/color] K'eve Vek-Ka 3-1... K'eve for short. [color=f49ac2]Age:[/color] Adult (Think late 20's) [color=f49ac2]Physical Description: [/color] Height - 6ft 6in Weight - 250lbs K'eve is average for a T'kossi. Covered from head to toe in grey scales with an eerie green glow coming from behind her teeth and eyes-- it can only be seen in a decent amount of darkness. She has three large fingers and a fourth acting as a thumb, two toes, all tipped with large black claws. Two tusks extend from each side of her head, decorated with various metal rings. There are black feather-like growths extending from her head-- when acting aggressively or when startled, these feathers tend to rise slightly. Reptilian in most physiological regards. [color=f49ac2]Race:[/color] T'kossi [color=f49ac2]Gender: [/color] "Female" though the race has no real concept of gender. [color=f49ac2]Specialty: [/color] Weapons Repair, Weapons Operation, and Ground Combat. [color=f49ac2]Likes:[/color] FIGHTING, Arguments, Cuddling (though she insists it's for body heat exchange), Weapons, Socializing, Raw Meat. [color=f49ac2]Dislikes: [/color] The Cold, "Sentient Scrap Heaps" (Tolathians), Pacifists, LIZARDS. [color=f49ac2]Inventory:[/color] - T'kossi Armor: Made from various scrap metals and decorated with animal bones. Helmet has a set of bone horns attached. - T'kossi G'ket: Hooks are worn on the wrists and ankles so that a set of two heavy L shaped blades can be spun about and tossed around. Confusing to watch but very deadly. - Sack of "Tools": Scavenged from who knows where, there are a lot of tools in the sack from various parts of the galaxy, some of them don't even look to be tools at all. - Smaller Sack of "Rations": The bag reeks of rotting animal yet, K'eve occasionally takes a bite of whatever the unseen contents are. [color=f49ac2]Bio:[/color] TL;DR: - T'kossi come from space Australia. - T'kossi are a Warrior Race of Lizard people that are dying out. - K'eve and other T'kossi are searching for an anti-virus for the Tolathian garbage virus that killed T'koss. [hider=Planet T'koss] T'koss is a planet that was once thought inhospitable and desolate. It possesses a high gravitational pull, it's in between two A-Type blue stars, alone, orbiting around a third A-type star, making it's surface extremely hot. Desert conditions are as common as the pools of boiling water-- the surface lacks vegetation, though there are signs this was not always the case. The planet is oddly located at the very edge of the Blue Zone-- it's stars being a popular tourist ship fly by during return trips. A strange amount of electrical magnetic interference radiates out from the planet powerfully, often scrambling the equipment of ships that enter the small star cluster. The gravitational pull of T'koss is responsible for hundreds of space crashes and the ruining of probes alike-- nothing can seem to withstand impact with the planet long enough to get accurate readings. Well, nothing could, until the Tolathians came along. [/hider] [hider=Tolathian Landing] Initial scans of the planet showed exactly what everyone else had seen for centuries-- absolutely nothing but electromagnetic interference. Tolathian technology was sent down and immediately destroyed. Then a few more probes were developed quickly and, after a few success trials, the first Tolathians set foot on the planet. They were immediately attacked by the hostile T'kossi. Tolathian data logs list the T'kossi lifestyle as one of scavenging from the large wrecks of ships, some of which are centuries old. Their behavior centers around a Warband-like structure-- a leader being appointed to lead the scavenging band. T'kossi are known to meet peacefully every three T'koss-month period (roughly 19 stellar months) for a period of 1 stellar month, in order to exchange information, resources, tend to the elderly, and trade members of their Warbands about. After such a meeting period, they leave the "Den", as it was nicknamed, and immediately become hostile toward other Warbands again. Lurking within the T'kossi Den is a monolith of technological marvel of unknown make or origin-- The Tolathians nicknamed it "The Mother." This device seems to be wholly responsible for the "birth" process of T'kossi, providing food to the elders daily, food and mending to Warbands upon the T'kossi meeting, and creating technology from the scraps scavenged by the T'kossi. Tolathians planted their virus into "The Mother" which sabotaged the T'kossi greatly as a whole. It was discovered that the T'kossi are able to communicate via a bio-mechanical sensor and signal array, implanted into their physiology before they are born. The Tolathians disabled their communication with one another, resulting in heavy psychological and emotional damage, and their sudden crippled ability to attack and sync movements as fast as data could travel. Furthermore the virus which infected "The Mother" disabled her ability to create and no amount of intervention could repair the damage. Along with the heavy casualties they sustained fighting the Tolathians, The T'kossi are now a dying race, no longer having a means to reproduce or sustain themselves. Most chose to stay and die with "The Mother," but the T'kossi are a free thinking people, so others figured out how to escape the gravitational pull of the planet, thanks to scavenged Tolathian technology, and have fled to the stars to search for a way to bring "The Mother" back to life. [/hider] [hider=K'eve's Journey] Having been one of the first to take to the stars, in a reconfigured missile pod, K'eve eventually landed in a nearby star-system and found it too was under Tolathian rule. Difficulties learning the cultures and a means to survive followed. Eventually, she found that her skills with weapons and battle could be used to make money. A few mercenary jobs later and K'eve purchased a better ship, then began coming planet after planet looking for "The Mother's Anti-Virus." Having become convinced that the answers no longer lie in this galaxy, K'eve searched around for transportation out of here. Her goal is simple: Find the means to revive The Mother and return.

And then I got sad."[/sup][/center] - K'eve can be extremely aggressive and even hurtful, but weirdly good natured about it-- as if it were friendly. - K'eve has 0 sense of personal space. - K'eve has 0 sense of how potentially intimidating she is. - K'eve took female pronouns simply because Tolathian's called "The Mother" a "Female" - All T'kossi are "female."
