Drian definition
Drians are what humans will become in thousands of years; they are an evolutionary enhancement of humanity. Their only world, Kyathalon, lives in pure harmony at most, but they share this world with many other races that are not all so peaceful. Of course, Drians aren’t perfect, and squabbles, misunderstanding and disagreements occur regularly, but there has rarely been war over the many millennia that civilized races have existed here. Things are done to seek knowledge or to advance the societies and technologies of this planet, and strength or fighting superiority is not cared about. The average height for these people is about six foot and they are almost all thin. Obesity is frowned upon greatly and it has been known for people to be exiled for being over weight. It is known as something that shows a persons laziness, lack of care for their health, and stupidity. The Drians are peaceful people but they are hardened and not weak by any means. Their speed, intelligence, dexterity and charisma is amazingly superior to humans and even elves and dwarves while their strength is usually around the same, but can be trained to be much stronger. They have developed a government that gets things done and keeps everyone happy, they do not care for possessions such as jewelry for their worth, but only for their sentimental meanings. They have invented many new ways to excrete energy from the things around them without polluting their atmosphere, they have found magic that can be used during battle and to help in medicine and everyday living, and their technology has far surpassed even the top secret NASA type projects. There are few races that even come close to the Drians. Disagreements occur a lot on Kyathalon and some races hold things against the Drians through jealousy. Some of the stronger races are known to pick fights with Drians for stupid reasons and the Drians are usually the ones who come out of it worse off. They are a race built for intellect truly and not for battle, but there are always the few exceptions like in any race.
Appearance
Hyvon Lore is around six foot four inches tall with thick but short dark brown hair. His hair comes to half way down his neck, it is straight and his fringe, which is actually fairly long and would usually hang over his eyes, is combed to the side so that it only hangs down covering half of one eye. The eye that it covers is scarred by a blade wound that stretches from just above his eyebrow to his cheekbone. His fringe covers his scar up and leaves enough of a gap so that he is able to see around the fringe even though that eye is unable to open fully. The rest of his hair hangs freely but is still kept tight and does not flow around everywhere. Lore wears a heavy pair of black boots that come up to just above his ankle. The boots fasten with three metal buckles that are positioned up the boots off to the side facing away from his body. He also wears a dark navy blue pair of trousers which are slit open across his right knee and frayed. When Lore’s knee bends the trousers come apart at the knee and it is possible to see that there is the casing of a mechanical leg. The wires are all covered up but there are parts where there are spaces in the metal and it is possible to see that the wires and mechanical instruments are covered in a black plastic type of material that is able to bend as much as need be and will mold back into its original shape. Basically this means that Lore is able to move just as if he had his original leg. On his upper body Lore wears a deep and very dark grey cotton long sleeved t-shirt which has a round neck. On his left arm the shirt sleeve is only three quarters of the length of his arm, but this is because of a device that covers his left arm from the top side of his middle knuckle to half way up his forearm. The device is made of a metal and is fairly thin. It is fastened like a bracer around his forearm and has controls under a black protective panel that cannot be opened. Lore named this device the Genon. On top of everything Lore wears a long coat. The left sleeve of the coat is inexistent, it was ripped off when his left arm was destroyed and Lore thought it looked better and allowed easier movement of the arm so he did not replace the coat, leaving his shirt visible and the Genon with it. The rest of the coat is normal and reaches down to around ankle level except from at the back where it is separated by a long rip that starts at Lore’s waistline and slowly widens apart until it reaches the bottom of the coat. Lore’s complexion is quite pale, although only around half his face, his right arm and the parts of his left arm that aren’t covered up by the Genon are actually visible. His fingers are thin and bony, and his face is drawn out. He looks far taller than he really is because of these features, which are mainly just his Drian features, but his build does not bother him very much because it is not his main weapon in battle.
The Genon is a device which Lore created to control his high levels of radiation. These high radiation levels are nothing to do with “mutant powers” but are created by the reaction between his own world’s atmosphere and his use of physic abilities. If Lore’s radiation levels grew too high then he would die and so the Genon is there to keep these radiation levels at a minimum, which is usually at somewhere near to zero, but when in battle they can increase to catastrophic levels and so the Genon must be able to bring these levels back down and control them from going over a certain level. This does stop him from using physic powers over a certain strength, but he is still able to use these powers and be deadly with them. The Genons controls are not accessed by hand, instead they are accessed by Lore through his mind so that it is possible to completely encase the device and protect it from being damaged or malfunctioning. The Genon is actually directly connected to Lore’s life stream and so does not need batteries or any other power source to run it. It is intertwined with Lore’s own body parts in his arm to almost become a part of his body on its own. Because of this it is impossible to remove the Genon without having to amputate Lore’s arm at his wrist. This is a good insurance measure and since he will always have his psychic abilities then really there is no reason to get rid of it. The Genon can be completely opened up if it needs to be repaired though. The Genon is an advanced piece of technology that is uniquely available to Lore. As the creator, Lore decided that he would keep the designs to himself and since the skill of psychic powers is a very rare gift on Lore’s world it would not be an invention that could change the world. Lore also didn’t want a life of fame and riches, all he was interested in was finding out more about his abilities and about the planet that he lived in. For the planet was the reason he was gifted with such power and he had to understand the planet properly to truly understand his own power and real potential.
Armour
Lore has been in many battles during his life and so because of this he has received a lot of injuries. Some of his body parts have been damaged beyond repair and so he has had to replace some of them with mechanical versions of the real thing. Although Lore has never wore any external armour, he decided to combine these mechanical body parts with a new idea to make the these new body parts armoured so that they would be stronger than before, able to protect him further and maybe even take weak attacks. The mechanical body parts are made from a strong but lightweight material, which is similar to both the materials carbon fiber and titanium. The material does not react to chemicals in the human body and so it is safe to attach the metal right onto the flesh and bone. The material is bolted through the bone that is still left and then used to create an artificial body part. All the joints are created using this same material, but are helped to bend and move by small electrical devices implanted into the joint and connected to Lore’s life stream. These devices allow Lore bend to the joints easily upon request. The main core and the wires connecting the joints to Lore’s life stream are then encased in a plastic type material that is both strong and durable, but elasticized too. This allows the joints to bend as they usually would but also protects the materials and devices inside. Basically the material is able to stretch upwards and bend when for example the knee is bent, but if something hit into the material, which would put the stress on to it in a horizontal direction, the material would stay rigid and would act like a shield to the pressure. Lore is not fully encased in this armour though because if he was he would be a robot, and he is not that. At the moment only his whole right leg, his left arm, his rib cage, his spine and the left side of his hips have been replaced and so are covered in this armoured replacement.
Personality
Lore is a mild mannered philosopher; he is by no means arrogant and definitely not ignorant. Lore is a seeker of knowledge and so has had to be very sociable throughout his life; talking to people a lot and sometimes even being deceptive to get what he needed. He is an intelligent man and so usually knows what he’s talking about; Lore isn’t the type of person to go making things up. He is very temperamental the majority of the time, but he angers easily and can become extremely violent. This has got him into a lot of trouble in the past, but most of the time he is calm and thinks before he acts. While just talking to Lore you would never think he could have this sort of temper, he is fairly quiet at times and keeps himself to himself except when he needs to find something out. Lore does enjoy a lively lifestyle and can be found in a tavern joking and telling stories while he isn’t working. He has also been known to bring this laughter into his job for his own amusement once in a while too, which has never been popular, although has given his employers a bit of light comical relief. This comical nature has sometimes brought the opinion that Lore is fairly evil, especially when he brings it into his job, but it is all for fun at the end of the day and no real harm is meant by it. Lore is neutral to most things, he stays out of fights as often as he can and doesn’t go looking for trouble. He keeps his opinions to himself so as to not get into arguments but is not afraid to voice his own opinion. Lore has been labeled as a trouble maker in some towns though, but this is mostly because of either his temper or because he’s been in the wrong place at the wrong time, it is only on the rare occasions that his jokers’ attitude has got him into fights. It may seem that Lore is a bit of a clown, but he takes his work seriously and reaches for his goals. He just likes to have fun along the way.
Weapons
Lore bares two weapons that he uses in battle; one is a sword which he found in the ancient ruins at Alsaka, and the other is a high tech gun that can fire both normal bullets and dark matter. Lore treasures both these weapons and would never sell or replace them. They are both very expensive pieces of equipment and have helped Lore out many times in the past. Their sentimental value is far greater than that of their worth though.
The name given to the sword is “Bethalion” which in translated text from the ancient language found in the old ruins the sword was found in, means “Deadly Serpent”. It is thought this is because of the design of the sword. The sword has a long blade that is slightly wider than the usual size of a longsword and actually longer than a longsword, but narrower than a broadsword. The long tail of a dragon is wrapped around the blade, but is flat and so does not make the blade wide in the direction which it is supposed to be flat. The tail does not affect the sharpness of the blade because it is sharpened so that the edge of it is as razor sharp as the rest of the blade; all it means is that the blade is wider in some parts. The end of the dragons’ spiked tail creates the stabbing point of the blade. Where the hilt meets the blade, the body begins and takes up the majority of the joining area. The dragons’ wings make up either side of the hilt and stretch fairly wide, but not so wide that they get in the way. The whole of the handle is made up of the serpents’ upper body and mostly its neck, with the curved spikes at the back of its neck giving finger grip slots. At the head of the handle, the dragons head looks to the side with its eyes shining brightly with mysterious white gems that change colour with the blades inner mood. The sword was found by Lore while he was searching the ancient ruins at Alsaka for a gem known as The Worlds Eye. It was rumored that this gem gave the bearer all the knowledge of the ages. Lore believed that the stone inside the dragons’ eye was this gem and that the rumor was more of a riddle. The gem gives the bearer ever lasting life, so as long as the bearer doesn’t get themselves killed, they will live forever. The sword itself was the sword of an ancient king whose race was destroyed in one of the great wars of old. The ancient ruins are his tomb and his most treasured possession, his sword and the gem within it, were left with him. Lore keeps this sword in the scabbard it was found in, strapped to his belt on his left side. The scabbard is completely black except for metallic edging around the top and bottom of it, and a fairly small image of the sword in the center of the scabbard.
The gun was not given a name by Lore, but its manufacturer named the series the Duo-Discharge Series or DDS for short. The gun can just be used as a normal hand gun, which fires bullets and would have no extra advantage to a normal hand gun. The gun also has a second feature though which allows it to fire black matter energy. It must first be charged up before it can fire this because the energy needs to build up within the gun. The black matter fires out of the guns barrel as a sphere just a bit larger than a bullet. Because of the speed it is fired at and the form of the energy, the sphere then takes the shape of something more like a splatter and becomes flatter but around the size of a mans palm. The gun was first designed specifically for the battle between the beings of good or neutral and the black armies who had destroyed homes and murdered anyone they could for the many centuries prior to the war. It was found that black matter attacked the blood streams of these dark creatures and instantly killed them by spreading high frequency electro magnetic waves through their bodies. Strangely though, this same thing does not happen when the guns are fired on humans and other such beings. It is thought that the thick black blood of the dark creatures reacted with the matter and created these waves, but the red and white blood of the neutral and good beings did not have the same effects. Different effects were found though, which could be just as deadly in some cases. If the dark matter is fired at the head or heart of any creature, that creature instantly dies. But in other areas against good and neutral beings, the area that was hit becomes completely numb. All muscle cells in that area are numbed and so the limb is rendered useless. This effect can be dispelled, but only by a rare item known as Holy Matter, which there is only one known of. The whole range of this series was only supposed to be issued to army personnel and was to be only used against dark creatures for humane reasons. The dark matter causes extreme pain and discomfort because it attacks the nerves around the numbed area. The outer casing of the gun is made out of a light weight metal. This metal covers the whole of the barrel, chamber, trigger and surrounding areas of the gun. The also makes up most of the handle, but the handle is covered in a high friction grip which has a high powered static charge causing it to be able to stick onto flesh without actually being connected. A simple push of a button turns off this feature, and of course Lore is able to adjust these features with the power of his mind. The gun uses normal magazines to reload for the bullets, which hold fourteen bullets. The Dark Matter runs on Dark Mana Cartridges which draw energy from the atmosphere around it and then dispersing the energy back into the atmosphere once it has hit its destination. Because of this the cartridges are only stores for the energy and do not need to be replaced.
Skills
Lore isn’t usually a fighting man and prefers to use his head to get out of most situations but because of his short fuse he can get himself into fights quite regularly. Because of this he has a lot of battle experience and great skill with a blade from when he trained himself in his younger years. After becoming old enough to own a gun he trained his accuracy and soon became competent with this weapon. Lore is also able to use the magic that the Drians found in the atmosphere and living things on their world. These are elemental manipulation magic that are not anything special compared to other races magic but can be very powerful and at times very helpful. Lore’s main skill though is one that he has had since birth. Lore was born with the rare skill of mind powers making him able to use such skills and telekinesis, foresight, mind reading and the ability to manipulate psychic energy. Each of these skills has their own restrictions however and usually takes a lot of energy to perform. Lore’s psychic power is extremely strong compared to most peoples and has long perfected it after using it from birth.
Telekinesis, the ability to move objects with the power of the mind allows Lore to do most things without moving a muscle. During battle he can use this to throw objects at enemies, control things like water flow, the wind and even things as small as air particles. He is also able to use this to help move himself out of a sticky situations faster by moving his body. This means he can also control his body enough to make himself do such things as flying, teleportation and moving through dimensions. Lore is able to move objects as large as a small house or bungalow if he has enough time to build up the energy. To do this though it can sometimes take a fair amount of time and he would not have this sort of time during battle. Cars are the largest objects that Lore is able to control instantly, but if he was in battle and didn’t have time to store up enough energy he could control air particles in front of him and use them as a sort of push to create a wave that would grow to be strong enough to move objects like trains, buses etc.
In order to use foresight, Lore must meditate before and while he is viewing possible future events. The sights Lore views are usually accurate but because nothing is ever definite until it happens, he can sometimes get some things wrong. Lore rarely ever uses this in battle because he does not have enough time, but sometimes when he is in mortal danger he receives flash visions which are warning signs. Foresight isn’t all that useful for Lore because he doesn’t use it to do good for the world. Instead he uses it for himself to look at the dangers that could be part of his day so that he is able to prepare for them and maybe do something to stop them when they occur. He cant get a full picture of what will happen most of the time but it gives him an over view.
Mind reading and foresight are partially connected. Lore needs to be able to concentrate of the persons mind to be able to read it fully and hear what they are thinking or what they have thought. In most cases it is hard to do this and so he only gets snippets of their life which are usually irrelevant to what he may need to find out. This is why he socializes with the people that he wants to find information about. He can just sit in a pub with them and talk while reading their mind and not have to think about anything else. As a person drinks more their mind becomes weaker too and so it is much easier to read. People can resist Lore hacking into their mind though if they want to and if their will is strong enough, but that usually only slows the process and in the end he is able to access that person’s inner thoughts. This skill can also be very helpful when Lore finds out something that the person is planning on doing in the future. At this point mind reading and foresight become inter twined, although the thoughts are more passive than future. Mind reading doesn’t really take up much energy and can be done instantly at times, especially if the person is willing to allow Lore access or they are very weak minded, but it can take time if they are strong willed.
Physic energy is basically the energy flow in people’s minds. When someone thinks something, psychic energy is being used and being released into the atmosphere. The smarter the person, the more psychic energy is released. Lore is able to get a grasp on this energy and give it a form. This form can sometimes be a ball of energy that can be projected, an energy wave, or an energy blast which would cause an eruption and can be very dangerous and destructive. This energy is normally transparent, but it can be given a tinge by the user to make it easier to use. The default tinge is a bright pink, which is the quickest to use does not need to be distorted or change to be used. Other tinges do not take very long though and are much more destructive because they are purer forms of this energy. The purest form of this energy is pure white and is known as Holy Matter in its solid form. The one down from this is Dark Matter, but the ones after are not known about by those who cannot use psychic powers and so are not given names. These include a red, blue, green and yellow tinge, red being the strongest and yellow being one above pink. Each of these cause different effects on people and some can only be used in certain ways. Basically they all have their own uses and cannot be used for anything different. Pink is for basic energy blasts, waves and projectiles, yellow is for healing, green can only be used be channeling it through the earth or through water and is used to create earthquakes, lava flows and topple buildings by crippling their structures. Blue is just a much more powerful version of the pink energy, red can do everything that the blue can but is even more powerful. It can also control the weather by changing air particles. Black Matter energy is the exact same thing that is fired out of the DDS and does exactly the same thing. Holy Matter is the most powerful energy force known to the Drians. If used in a destructive manner it is possible for this energy to cause a chain reaction that could destroy a whole planet, but if it is used for good it is possible to cause disease and even bring someone back to the dead with it. Even though it can do such good and could actually be used to make a whole planet immortal, the Drians have made construction of such energy illegal. For what good it could do, it could do much worse for bad. Therefore only one sphere of Holy Matter exists on Kyathalon encase of a planetary emergency. |
