Kravash

Kravash is a male Talyxian Stalker. He was born in the sewers of Gold Ring at some unknown point in time. His mother wandered away, abandoning him deep underground to fend for himself. He happened to come across another kitten that was suffering a similar fate, and the two decided to stick together and try to survive. They developed such a strong bond that Kravash would always call him his brother.

His "brother" (name pending) evolved into a T-Rooter, which gave them an opportunity to interact more on the surface. The brother held a research job while Kravash assisted him with his studies and any needed manual labor. After their shell network was created, his brother left on an expedition. Kravash urged him to use one of the mechanical shells instead of going in his own body, but he insisted that showing off such a device would cause the public to become hostile, for living forever was unnatural. He was never seen again, which sparked Kravash's paranoia that somebody found out about their project and were seeking to stop them both.

Appearance
Kravash is 4'6" on all fours, but for a better perspective he is larger than a Liger. His eyes are bright orange and his natural fur color is a medium grey. His long mane is more of a charcoal grey.

His synthetic bodies have strong, large fibre armor plates made from talyxian tendril plants that were growing underground. His claws are made of the same material and are sharp enough to cut metals. He also has a set of serrated teeth going from the back of the jaw to his large front fangs.

Personality
Being a sewer cat, Kravash didn't really interact with others until he had reached the surface once his brother became a rooter. Initially he had little interaction with other creatures, secluding himself to only observe how others acted and talked. With his heightened intelligence, he soon began mimic the actions, then soon developed his own personality and human-like social life. Despite this phenomenal gift, he usually stays alone and secluded due to his history and paranoia, only to interact with close friends. His humor and actions are also slightly twisted due to the shady activities he has observed/participated in underground, making him quite sadistic.

Career
After he refined the shell setup and his paranoia died down enough for him to leave his bunker in the underground, he began to use his knowledge in both the city and the sewers. He helps create electronic devices, heavy machinery, and other large scale and intricate projects. This is part of the reason he has serrated teeth and superbly sharp claws, for he can strip wires and cut plates.

Synthetic Shells
After he and his brother found a way to live somewhat comfortably, they naively began to investigate all that there was in the world and then some. Over time they both came to the conclusion that it would take lifetimes to research and document every little thing and found that they could only fulfill this dream was to live forever. They began developing mechanical 'shells', or bodies that they can switch their consciousness to at any time.

The prototype bodies were essentially robots, requiring only charge and a proper connection to a stasis pod preserving their body and mind, but these were heavily restricted as they only had a direct wire to the pods. On top of this, all the parts and machinery were either stolen or salvaged from whatever people threw away. However, Kravash's morphasis into a T-Rooter gave way to better materials.

The later shell models are more like enhanced clones rather than machines. This is due to Kravash's dislike of the mechanical lifestyle where he doesn't need to breathe, eat, sleep, drink, or feel. What his vision was for living forever was to actually live. These shells have synthetic organs, circulatory and respiratory filters, armor plates, strengthened bones and skin, greater muscular strength, pain suppression, and the ability to self-destruct. However, these modifications will not protect him from everything, for he cannot enter the radiation zone as it interferes with the wireless transmitter/receiver that the shell network uses.
