Nyrkis A'rkoh - Fallen Scientist

** — /// Appearance \\\ — **

Apperance: Nyrkis A’rkoh is an Arkanian. His figure and posture are unremarkable… He is of average height and build. Like the rest of his Species, he has long white hair, pure white eyes, and very fair skin… So fair that he could be mistaken for an Echani. A feature that may distinguish him from most Arkanians is four clawed digits on each hand (assuming he is not currently wearing gloves.).

He wears dark and simple clothes… However, a trained eye can notice that they are not cheap and are made with great care. All accessories are selected in such a way that they perfectly match the rest, which may suggest that many hours were spent on their selection.

Behavior: The man rarely smiles and does not often gesticulate during conversations. When he speaks, he tries to do it slowly so that everyone can hear him, giving a polite and confident tone of voice. Very often, however, his words show arrogance that disturbs the “nice” image presented by Nyrkis.

The same subdued attitude is visible in movement as in conversation. However, the situation changes during combat where the Arkanian becomes fast and aggressive, which is the complete opposite of how he normally behaves.

Companion: Very often, Nyrkis is accompanied by K’lor’slug. The creature is generally very calm… But as soon as the Arkanian gives the silent command to attack, the K’lor’slug adopts the aggressive behavior so native to this Species.

This beast is a smaller representative of this species, but a trained eye can notice several changes in appearance that should not take place.

Force Aura: For those sensitive to the Presence in the Force, Nyrkis’ appearance changes slightly. There is an extraordinary self-confidence and arrogance associated with the Dark Side of the Force, but there is also a sense of calm and concern for K’lor’slug, which pushes the aura towards the Light Side of the Force. At times both sides clash with each other and neither side gains the advantage.

Some may sense that Nyrkis has only just begun to take the first steps in mastering the Force.

** — /// Backstory \\\ — **

Nyrkis was born into a family closely associated with The Adasca BioMechanical Corporation of Arkania. As a child, like most Arkanians, He underwent genetic manipulation of their body… His early life was like that of most Arcanians with the right characteristics.

Nyrkis A’rkoh emerged as an enigmatic young figure, his striking white eyes reflecting not just his genetic heritage but also the uncharted territories of his brilliant mind. Nurtured in an environment that revered intellectual prowess, Nyrkis possessed an extraordinary talent for science, particularly in the realm of ethically ambiguous genetic manipulation.

From an early age, Nyrkis exhibited a penchant for pushing the boundaries of ethical science, delving into experiments that blurred the line between innovation and moral responsibility. His mentors recognized the brilliance within him, but his unorthodox methods and willingness to traverse forbidden territories raised eyebrows among the more conservative scientific community.

Nyrkis’s fascination with genetic manipulation took a darker turn as he explored ways to enhance not just the physical attributes of life forms but also their cognitive capacities. His experiments often skirted the edge of ethical acceptability, and whispers of his controversial work spread beyond the borders of Arkania, attracting attention from both admirers and critics.

Ultimately, Nyrkis became one of the most promising employees (at least that’s what he said about himself) of The Adasca BioMechanical Corporation of Arkania… Unfortunately, he never had the opportunity to spread his wings more or meet the CEO himself because at some point he simply disappeared. The official news was that the Arkanian legacy was destroyed by the Mandalorians and the CEO himself was killed.

From that moment on, the problems began… Not only for the Corporation but for the A’rkoh family. The CEO’s place was left empty, which opened the way for many people who wanted to take power. Nyrkis’ family split into several camps, each wanting to take part in the ongoing conflict and try to stand out as the “Most Outstanding” of A’rkoh.

Family Conflict wasn’t bloody, at least not at first. The first moves involved sabotaging experiments… Then came the reduction of authority among colleagues…

The first to shed blood was Nyrkis… Nyrkis experimented on animals. He tried to create the perfect animal (Perfect in the context of the war being waged. Therefore, an organic fighting machine). He shared a bond with many of his experiments… He treated them as his Children. And when these Children were gone, because his cousins destroyed them, something inside him broke. And he decided to take revenge.

The result was that House A’rkoh lost its importance. If anyone survived outside Nyrkis, they escaped from Arkania like Him. The Young Scientist, in his vanity and arrogance, never bothered to check if there was any arrest warrant issued for him… Was anyone interested in the whole case? He just assumed that was the case. And he had to escape.

Nyrkis would probably still be in hiding if it weren’t for the Civil War. He thought it was the perfect time to come out of hiding.

His next steps were once again guided by ambition. He didn’t manage to finish his research then, but maybe he will succeed now? It won’t be easy, but it’s possible. The only thing needed is to find allies who would be able to appreciate his talents.

But what about being Force Sensitive? This is something that remains to be discovered…
