Color Code: 227E08 Gender: Male Age: 30 Country of Origin: Province of Canada Bio: Nikolaas was born to Dutch immigrants who had originally settled in the southern Canada, before moving farther into the wilderness to become trappers as a way to make a living. Nikolaas grew up learning how to hunt and trap as a way to survive and his father taught him about all the different kinds of animals that roamed the lands. He lived a fairly normal early life as normal as a hunter could have in the Canadian wilderness facing wild animals.
Nikolaas’ powers manifested when he was nineteen during an expedition deep into the Canadian wilderness with a group of explorers. He had been hired to take them deep into the forest so that they could catalog and study the various types of plants and animals in the area. One day while butchering a fresh grizzly bear for the team, he decided to cook and eat the heart for himself as it was always his favorite part of the bear. The next thing he remembers is that he was waking up in the middle of their camp with blood on his hands and it looked like a bear had rampaged through their camp killing everyone. It didn't take him more than a few days to figure out that he was one of the unholy that the people in town had been talking about. He decided to bury the bodies in the wilderness and reported in town that they had all perished in a wild animal attack which wasn't all that uncommon.
Over the next few years, Nikolaas tested out his abilities in the wilderness of Canada. It was around that time that people started talking about weird creatures appearing in the forest outside of town. The British army was sent into the wilderness because of these stories as any rumors of an unholy was to be taken seriously. This is how Nikolaas ended up in the Government's custody as it took the army several years to catch up with him, but eventually he ended up in a cell in Toronto which was the capital at the time.
In late 1852, Nikolaas was loaded onto a Naval ship bound for London as he was to face the courts in London for his curse. Upon arriving in London, rumors of war were spreading and the British were forming a group of Unholy for the army to utilize if war broke out. Nikolaas was given the choice of the hangman's noose or to join the Unholy Army to repent for the trumped up charges against him back in his homeland. This forced him to serve during the Crimean War as a forward scout and information gatherer using his enhanced senses and ruthless methods to get the information that was needed.
After the war, Nikolaas had served his time for the crimes against him and not wanting to return to Canada he started to look for work around Britain. That was when he was approached by the Queen's Hand and was offered a job to use his abilities for the crown and they would defend him from the public option.
Ability: Lycanthropy Description: Nikolaas has the power to imbue himself with the abilities of the animals that he has consumed. He goes through a type of transformation similar to the mythical werewolf where he takes on characteristics of the animals while keeping his human senses somewhat intact. He is able to store the animal's powers indefinitely within himself, but he is only able to use the abilities of mammals and no other type of creature. There doesn't seem to be a sort of time limit on his ability, but the longer he stays out of his human form the more feral his mind becomes until he eventually loses himself to his beast side. The only way for him to revert back to normal at this point is to lose consciousnesses or for something familiar to snap him out of his haze.

Culture: The Ogarians showed up a few thousand years before the humans appeared in Elysia as an advanced technological race that was always striving for a greater advancement for themselves. Upon arriving in Elysia and discovering the power of magic that could fill the gaps that their own technology could not solve, many researchers started to study essence to try an understand this realm of the gods. It took over a thousand years to even understand the basic of what their technology could not tell them, but soon a few were starting to get a grasp of Elysia. Kaz Al'Oga is the last of his species as he is the result of an attempt by the Ogarians to try and become closer to the gods that created Elysia. A large infusion of motes and pure essence was forced into a single being to see if ascension could be achieved to a higher plane of existence, the resulting backlash scorched their home world leaving it a barren and molten world with only one broken soul remaining.
Racial Features: Ogarians were once a reptilian looking species, that was before their extinction leaving only Kaz Al'Oga with a spectral form of semi-solid physical form with the rest of his body being made up of Essence.
Occupation: Researcher of Elysia and Living God
Appearance: Kaz Al'Oga has an actual physical body beneath all the swirling essence that makes up the rest of his body. His body looks like black water that is in a constant rippling effect with glowing white orbs where his eyes should be. The rest of his body is made up of a swirling cloud of essence that is naturally created by his body.
Training:
Understanding and proficient with advanced technology
Deep understanding of Essence and how to use it
Skilled Pilot with a vast array of ships
Understanding of most different technology with a specialization in Fae'Rin tech
Powers:
Telekinetic Touch: Kaz is able to move any object in his immediate area without touching the object and can even move multiple objects at once. If he actually sits down and focuses he can move objects hundreds of feet away and can even throw living being around as if they were leaves being blown in the wind. This was one of his first abilities that was manifested after becoming an exalted and as such is his most practiced.
Shield Generation: Kaz Al'Oga has the ability to surround himself in a nearly impenetrable shield that can protect him from most forms of harm that don't involve another exalted. This power was not created for his own safety because mortal attacks do not seem to affect his altered body, but because of his hate for having to repair and replace containment suits every time they became damaged.
Equipment:
Containment Suit that was built and designed by Kaz in order to allow him to maintain a humanoid form. The suit is maintained by essence fuel cells and over the many many years there have been many different iterations of his Containment suit with this only being the latest in a long line of different designs. The suit also contains a built in translator and PDA built into the HUD of the suit.
Ogarian Energy Pistol: An old pistol that looks like it should be in a museum with the age that the gun looks. While on the inside the gun has been completely rebuild and is practically brand new.
Several Rare metal knives that are able to pierce many different types of armor
Airship:Ogarian Hope The Ogarian Hope was designed and built by Kaz to be his personal ship in Elysia. Built into the hull are magitech conduits that allow Kaz to use his sheild generation magic for his ship in case of emergency. The ship is armed with twin side mounted repeating rail guns as well as a nose mounted rail gun that fires a larger shell then the side mounted weapons but with a longer cooldown between shots. The ship is large enough to house a crew of ten comfortably with a storage hull loaded with actual paper books as well as datapads from various different centuries.
Motivation: Kaz Al'Oga is driven by his research of Elysia and the gods that rule the place. He is determined to find a way to bring down the gods that ruined his people.
Personality: Kaz is a melting pot of emotions and personalities as he as been around long enough that he has probably displayed every thing in the book. The most common traits shown by the Ogarian are a loneliness that cannot seem to be filled and a determination to complete any goal he is striving toward.
Flaws: Kaz is unable to maintain a cohesive tangible form without a containment suit. He is also a very broken person who finds it hard to believe that he is the last of his kind.
Bio:
There is no remaining records of the Ogarian race except for a small blip in the history books of the Fae'Rin known as the Lose of the 8th Fleet. This event took place a few millennia before humans showed up in Elysia. The Orgarian's waged a war of expansion against a close neighboring system of theirs which was controlled by the Fae'Rin. The resulting decade long war lead to defeat after defeat to the far more superior Fae'Rin forcing the Ogarians back to their home world that had been turned into a factory world for research and manufacturing. The Fae'Rin's 8th fleet had blockaded the planet and was demanding the unconditional surrender of the Ogarians, not knowing of a last effort of the planet as a way of fighting back.
The Ogarian's were a race with few exalted in their ranks and thought that by injecting massive quantities of essence and motes into a individual they could artificially induce the exalted process. This was a last ditch effort toward the war efforts and a test subject named Kaz Al'Oga was chosen as he met all the requirements. What happened next is unknown to anyone, but the results of the experiment were distinctly displayed when the methane rich planet started to erupt into a firestorm starting with where the experiment was to be held. All that was left after the firestorm were scorched buildings and rivers of fire with scans of the planet showing no remaining lifeforms.
The 8th fleet hung in orbit shocked with what they had just witnessed until their ships slowly started to dip lower and lower into the atmosphere of the planet and slowly picking up speed.
This is the last report that the fleet sent and a follow up fleet found that the Fae'Rin fleet had crashed into the surface of the scorched planet with all hands lost. The unofficial report claims that the fleet had been pulled out of orbit somehow as an intentional act to destroy the fleet.
Kaz Al'Oga somehow survived the experiments that altered his body and turned him into a real exalted instead of an artificial exalted as the tests had been a complete failure. After the destruction of his home, he wandered across the stars for a millennia wishing to die like the rest of his people. He now does what he pleases and serves no master or god.
Extra Info: Technically biologically immortal, except that it has not been verified. He may have a temper at times and some may even say he is dragon blooded.
