Name : Kalek Kelegar

Age : 25 years

Species : Gortien

Gender : Male

Home world : Gorti is a world composed predominantly of desert. Its unusual rotation axis places the poles in the axis of the sun, so that only a part is exposed to the sun at all times and makes a permanent furnace while the other is an immense ice field. Only a thin strip between the two provides a relatively temperate environment, despite the lack of light.

Description :

At once tall and muscular, his physic of 2.25m for 190 Kg (7 feet 4 inches and 418 lbs) tends to pose some problems in places not really designed for this format as, among others, human buildings. It's not very discreet, but this is not really what is asked to this species. Indeed, this race is better known for strength work than for undercover operations.

Her skin is mainly formed of scales small size, at least enough to pass unnoticed at first sight with their color very dark brown, almost black in some places and their matte appearance. Apart from some places it is barely thicker than human skin, it is rather flexible.

His head has an elongated shape, which is reminiscent a T-rex face. At the end of the muzzle two small slits take the nostrils place, just above its mouth. The head widens backwards to accommodate his two eyes yellow slitted vertically positioned just above his nose. Although placed on the side, they are sunken into the head on almost one centimeter to allow them to point forward. Naturally, this position slightly limits its vertical field of view and what he has in front his nose.

Unlike the majority of representatives of its species it has no horn as a beard or eyebrows, that which slightly softened its aggressive appearance if we put aside his sharpened teeth row destined to cut into the meat, as we can see when he opens his mouth. The rest of his face has three vertical stripes khaki colors, the last pass over his eyes. Contrary to what many think, it is not tribal paintings, but a different shade of its scales allowing distinguish more easily individuals from each other. He has similar bands on his arms, legs and at sides of her body.

His neck is strongly developed, more in proportion than human. This is largely due to the presence of muscles that budge practically all the head (except the jaw) and a thick bone structure common to the whole of the species. The top of his wide shoulders have larger scales and thick come down on his chest and on his upper back, form a kind of natural protection to what might try to penetrate here. They have a slightly lighter shade than the others.

His arms as these hands have a humanoid appearance, it is easy to find the structure biceps / triceps and the same kind of hand mechanism, the only real difference being that his muscles are naturally more developed than other species, understand by this that he did not need to work specifically to be as this. In fact, this would have no effect on him. The outer parts of his fingers have thicker scales similar to his shoulders, to protect them from shocks.

His legs are closer to those of some bipedal dragons, with digitigrade structure based on three thick fingers and a completely atrophied on the inner side. Despite this provision cannot jump very high because of its weight, too heavy and poorly distributed for this activity. His long and thick tail has a cylindrical shape and is rather flexible compared to the rest of the body, it actively participates in its balance especially when he carries heavy loads. It can also occasionally allow him to bring down an opponent who would have remained sufficiently close.

In certain condition, a pocket full of blood inside his chest is emptied of its contents in the normal blood flow. This improves his muscle strength by increasing the number of red blood cells available and visually increases its volume, like some creatures that inflate air to seem bigger than they are. However, for the gortiens this sounds rather be triggered by the influence of anger or an unusually intense physical activity.

He usually wears a simple canvas trousers and an simple loose fit solid color shirt, it doesn't really need to accentuate more his physic than it is naturally. More so as like said before, it may occasionally become bigger, a thing that his clothes would not appreciate if they are too narrow.

Finally, his voice is both rough and deep. Even if it corresponds well to the native language of gortians, it is much less to basic that sounds weird coming from him. Usually it has a normal voice volume, but if necessary it can also roar. In this case, he can be heard several kilometers, yet it is in this case unable to articulate anything.

Aptitudes :

As his physical lets guess, it has a great strength allowing him to carry masses without any difficulty that a human cannot consider to move, such as a rock, a bombshell crate or a heavy weapon normally used on ground. This same strength allows him to tear a light body armor with his teeth or to carve a path across usually impassable areas. Flip side, that makes him a slow person to virtually all levels, it is easy to lose in open terrain and it will have all the difficulty to catch a moving and flexible target . Another thing to note, it floats like an anvil filled with lead. Therefore, it cannot pass a river if it has no foothold, otherwise it will sink to the bottom without being able to do anything.

Physically, he is able to withstand unflinchingly many blow, her bone structure giving a rather high resistance to impact of all kinds. It has good hearing able to perceive infrasound and some ultrasound as long as it is not wet and there are not too much ambient noise. It is also able to see at night in shade of gray, his day view being a normal human level.

About his intelligence, he is not a genius, but there are much worse. He can speak, read and write gortian language, as well as basic even if sometimes it stumbles on certain words and concepts, giving occasionally comical quid pro quos or senseless dialogues. It has the bare minimum of piloting skill, some basic in mechanics and that's it. Neither medical training, nor scientific, nor depth knowledge in cartography or other things like that, it's just out of his reach. The only skill that stands out about him is his knowledge of agriculture taken from his home world.

Character :

If we disregard the appearance of brutish lout, one discovers a simple person without making head rather easygoing and friendly. However, careful his anger ... Some do not come out whole.

Another thing that characterizes it is its tendency to always choose the simplest solutions, even if they are not necessarily the most adapted to the situation. There is also a little bourrin on the edges, a confrontation with him is not done in lace, at least if he can get his hands on you.

History :

There is not much to say on his past, it is so flat and unoriginal that we will quickly move on. He goes out of his egg in a small village located at the equator of Gortie, sheltered in the collective incubator of the clan. Like almost all gortian children he does not know who exactly are his parents, except that they are part of the community. He grew up like any other, between learning the customs, the language and notions of agriculture that exist in this region of the planet.

Nothing extraordinary. His disagreement with the clan chief makes him leave the village and respond to the first job offer that seemed on its level, a longshoreman job on a cargo ship. It was 5 years ago and it is still there, but it would be an exaggeration to say that he loves his job. Between the mockery of the staff always ready to take it for more stupid that he is, bad jokes about his person and passageways not always at his measurements, no doubt he will leave this ship without problem if he had the opportunity.
