Name: Krothu Janaame
Alias/Titles: Adept Shaper, Select member of the Jeedai Heresy.
Originating From: Star Wars Expanded Universe OC
Gender: Male
Age: 27
Appearance: Slap
Species: Yuuzhan Vong
Brief Backstory: Like Many Yuuzhan Vong, he would be born into a Domain, under a Caste, and assigned a role in the great Invasion of the Galaxy. Even under the same great Clan of the Supreme Overlord, Krothu was noted to be a humble and introspective man, aloof even by Yuuzhan Vong standards. While being assigned to the Northwestern Fringe of the Galaxy, he would often meditate on the religion of his people and the nature of the Yun’o. If this was the edenic galaxy promised by generations past, will this galaxy be solely for the Yuuzhan Vong? Did not Yun-Yammka sacrifice portions of Himself to create all the cosmos, and the various creatures and beings who inhabit it? Did not the Yuuzhan Vong find a place and purpose for all living beings on Yuuzhan’tar, as evidenced in it’s Biotechnology? Then what would be the purpose of this galaxy, it’s inhabitants. Are they merely slaves, or could one of them possibly be a race to succeed the Yuuzhan Vong, once they Escalated to the point of joining the Yun’o in paradise? While Krothu would eventually imbibe in what would be called the Jeedai heresy, outwardly, he retained his unorthodox philosophy under the guise of unitarianism. All things came from Yun-Yuuzhan, and they will go to the Yun’o when they perish, thus no caste is inherently better than the other. Even the Shamed Ones are treated marginally decent under his care.
Travelling through Wild Space near the Unknown Regions, a fleet that was meant to help the Yuuzhan Vong do battle with the Imperial Remnant near the planet Troska flung them to Niflheim, an outpost of the Frost Giants. Despite the Bifrost being crippled and Thanos’s culling, the Yuuzhan Vong still face stiff resistance from them, and use the brisk planet as a base of operations, and studying where exactly they are and how to return home.
Powers and Abilities: Bioshaping - Mostly used maintain Krothu’s own cache of organic technology...however, his various innovations also include the ability to peer into more conventional steel and circuitry tech, as well as double as a decent enough healer. Without this innate ability for biotechnology, the modified attachments to his body would fall apart. Despite the Yuuzhan Vong’s predisposition towards mutilating and mauling foes, as well as grafting living creatures/organs onto themselves, Krothu is an excellent surgeon, and can work with the most minimal of equipment.
Beastmaster - The Yuuzhan Vong have weaponized every living creature in their home galaxy, and the font of that knowledge is passed down through the Shaper Caste. With his Shaper Headdress, and via his Shaper Hand, he is able to subdue and tame most non-sentient creatures.
Tier: (See the Tier explanation.)
9-B/A, under varying circumstances such as vulnerability to certain poisons, and whether or not that giant dino is sentient. If it is; great, what are you going to name him? However, Yuuzhan Vong tend to be around 9-B in terms of tier and strength, at the least 10-A due to their prioritizing martial prowess.
Attack Potency: With the Chitin Carbine, or any sufficiently powerful biotech, a 9-A. On his own, roughly a 10-A to a 9-B
Speed: Peak Human
Lifting Strength: Diet Superhuman (Class 1 on a good day)
Striking Strength: Wall
Durability: Wall
Stamina: Superhuman
Range: Extended Melee
Standard Equipment: Modifications :
Eyes - Mqaaq'it, this replacement for the eyes prevents the Yuuzhan Vong from looking like a black-irised monstrosity, now it can be a multi colored-eyed monstrosity depending on mood! But the changes are far greater than mere cosmetics, granting binocular and enhanced vision, night-vision, infrared as well as heat-discernment.
Brain - Vaa-tumor, a painful but necessary implantation for a member of the Shaper Caste, it allows the brain to be restructured, enabling the user to learn bioengineering as quickly as possible.
Head -
Shaper Headdress, similar to a head of snakes (a la medusa), but typically tied up in a turban form. While not used for emoting, he prefers to use it to communicate with his living armaments, as well as access biotechnology, and survive on distant worlds as well.
Gnullith-lungworm, allows breathing, even in the vacuum of space (for two hours in vacuum). However, Lungworms are separate organic creatures, and require feeding and careful maintenance in order to survive. The Gnullith on the other hand, can be used to siphon out toxins and liquids indefinitely.
Tizowyrm, allows for communication with different forms of speech.
Left Hand - Yanskac Chelliped, Roughly eight centimeter long centipedes that replaced a hand. Has a painful, but not necessarily lethal neuropoison.
Right Hand - Shaper hand, allows the use of many Yuuzhan Vong and organic technology, as well as medicinal and first aid techniques. This cephalopod-like appendage can grow to an impressive four meters, allowing for dexterous attacks and graceful grappling via it’s Finger-spears as well as a poisonous affliction from it’s whipsting.
Fortified Bones - What it says on the tin, between the slashing Yanskac claw and the stabbing finger-spear, many of the exposed limbs need some extra calcium in order to make it through a particularly grueling battle.
Torso - Q’et, Increases Carrying capacity.
Sclipune, increases carrying capacity slightly, requires specific code to access.
Ooglith - A highly durable rust-red bodysuit, this cloak allows one resilience to the vacuum of space.
Weapons - Malledillo. Did you ever watch Disney’s animated film, Alice in Wonderland? The really old old movie? Remember the scene where they use flamingos as croquettes? Well, a Malledillo is kind of like that, except as an armadillo and a part-time pimp cane/walking stick.
Chitin Carbine: This short, stocky shotgun-like weapon comes with a collapsible stock, and fires thud bugs, which can be thrown on their own up to 150 kilometers per hour. The carbine allows the thud bugs to go even faster, and act as shotgun slugs.
Intelligence: Above average/low genius intelligence, between the Vaa-tumor and the rigorous training of the Shaper Caste, he has an incredible knowledge on all things biological. Most of that intelligence is however, used for healing and keeping his allies alive, and pondering the mysteries of the universe, rather than actually fighting.
Weaknesses: While Krothu is no slouch when it comes to fighting, much of it is reserved for close quarters, and he hasn’t quite gotten around to figuring out how the Chitin-Carbine really operates. Not the quickest draw as far as guns go, so a marksman may find him a laughably easy opponent.
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
Chelliped Shield - A heater-style shield emerges over much of Krothu’s right arm, allowing extra protection.
Grafter’s Grapple - With his shaper’s hand, an opponent up to twenty meters away will be wrapped and flung about, forced to grapple with Krothu.
Toxic Tear - forgoing defense, the Shaper Hand and Yanskac work in sequence to snake through armor and inflict the opponent with a deadly nueropoision. An Agonizing and efficient death that would do both the Good Hunter and GLaDOS proud.
Thud-Bug Boomerang - Adeptly throwing a special variant of thud-bugs, the sharpened shells allow for a flurry of repeating gashes and bludgeons before returning to Krothu’s side.
Slug-Stream - A final, all out attack, unloading a flurry of acidic shredding upon the foes.
Theme Song: Too epic and long to be considered practical for a leitmotif
