[b]Species:[/b] [hider]Dragon-kin: A race of overly large reptilian beings that have been apex predators in the wild areas and mountains of  Kepler-17x. When first discovered by humans the Earth-borne thought they were actually dragons, hence the given name. The native inhabitants obviously didn't speak Human and their own name for themselves is such a mess that translators can't actually say figure it out. Until humans came the race was still very tribal and a show of force is what made them peaceful, after all humans were smaller. Edible. The species is also not nearly as plentiful as the normal races due to harsh practices. Laying eggs in the desert and leaving the young to fend for themselves until they're able to find a tribe to join in the mountains. This method prevented the weak and lame from taking resources and allowed diverse mating prospects since it's rare to find your Layer. No one knows exactly how long they live thanks to them killing each other, or falling in off-world combat, long before their scales start to dim.

The earthling arrivals didn't go unnoticed by the Dragon-kin. Sickness came but it wasn't as devastating to them as it was to most other predators of the planet. Their reptilian make-up, and the eating of rotten meat, gave them a severe boost to their immune systems to help keep unnatural sickness down. Afterwards though humans civilized the Dragon-kin, to a degree anyway, after the reptilian people 'made peace'. Which was offering up kills after a hunt. The language barrier was a huge issue that humans fixed pretty readily by setting translators on the reptilian people. Now they're mostly exotic bodyguards or geared up to be soldiers. Still they return to Kepler-17x to continue their laying practices.

(Yes the artwork is mine. Bought and paid for)

Kaze is big, even for a dragon-kin. Standing at eight feet seven inches tall and built like the old worlds strongest men from earth. But with a lot more muscle definition. While he may have wings, he's far to heavy for flight, like most of his species, and really just uses them for fighting, aid in climbing, gliding, and swimming. His are oddly unique, having claw-like fingers instead of the classic wing 'thumb'. His scales are black with a purple sheen in certain lights with purple underbelly plates running from his chin to his tails tip. Given his size, and attachments, normal clothes aren't a thing. He's mostly seen in a red skirt...kilt...thing with a golden border. Or he's clad in metal plates in certain locations. Namely chest, abdomen, fully encased arms, and the fronts of his legs with some weird elastic stuff on the back. He didn't pay attention to what it was.

[*] Observed humans until he was 'of age'.
[*] Underwent the translator surgery, first to have it in the brain and not as a concealed headset and choker.

[b]Weapons:[/b][list]
[*] Archaic Battle Scythe: A rather old looking weapon with some odd features. The long curved blade can collapse and pivots on a hinge to become a large axe. If pivoted the other way it becomes sort of like a pole-sword due to the length of the haft. It's Kaze sized so it's very large.
[*] Punt Gun II: A massive shotgun based off of Earth's old discontinued thirteen foot long mounted shotgun. Like most shotguns that use shot the range is fairly limited and the sheer size of this behemoth limits its usage as well. But it's capable of using a slug and the classic pellet shot rounds for devastating effects within its range. Single round chamber that has the archaic breech loading method.
[*] Aegis: A massive plate of metal with strapping on it to act as a shield. It resembles the ancient tower shield except it's eight feet tall and four feet wide. The edges of the slab of metal are honed down and sharpened while serrated spikes dot the front. 
[/list]

[b]Skills:[/b][list]
[*] Melee Specialist: Hand to hand or various forms of melee weaponry, it's his preferred way of fighting.
[*] Heavy Weapon Specialist: His secondary way of fighting is using large forms of various guns.
[*] Defensive Strategy: He tends to look for the best possible way to defend a position. If he has multiple views he can do a better job of it.
[*] Multi-linguist: The technology allowing him to speak in various languages allows him to understand what others are saying. Mostly because it's translating as they talk into his own language which is nothing but hisses, growls, and oddly enough chirps.

Yes he's strong but he's limited to certain things given his size, and the size of his preferred weaponry.
