Name: Ksyx (pronounced K'sikes)
Age: Adult (they measure simply lifecycles)
Sex: indeterminate
Race: Xzict
Affiliation (X-Men, JLA, etc.): Xzicst Battlegroup
Physical Description: Exoskelletal/endoskelletal body structure primarily quadrapedic and vaguely insectoid. An elongated skull, long, dexterous claws, small eyes, four jaws, a prehensile, bladed tail and various spines/portrusions that double as an offensive armor. Muscle mass is comprised of a considerable ammount of Tendon, lending lightning reflexes and savage strength (10 tons pushing). Two rows of teeth. Potassium-based life forms who do not 'breathe' in a true sense; but absorb hydrogen and carbon-dioxide. It should be noted that this makes the mamals of Earth attractive as potential meals, and thus sources of these elements. Communicates through complex gestures, sounds, pheremones, and limited telepathy. Able to tolerate and even opperate in the vacuum of space, pressure/low temperatures are no obsticle, though extreme heat or prolonged existance in an arid environtment will sicken the alien. Water/oceanic depths are no issue, and are, in fact, a preffered environment after flooded tunnel complexes. On average, 12 feet tall when standing, twice that in length.
Weapons (if any): Claws, Strength, tail blade, teeth
Special Skills: Racial traits; No need to breathe, completely sealed and thus immune to pressure changes, natrual climbers, diggers, and swimmers. Dont need light to see.
Powers: none
History: Two aliens, survivors of the planet wide epidemic, have traveled billions of lightyears to Earth in search of a cure for the blight that has overcome their people. Masters of Temporal travels (the use of wormholes, specificaly), the Xzicst homeworld itself was rendered into a monsterous ship and sent through a wormhole to escape the Supernova of its sun. This, unfortunately, exposed the entire race to an imperceptible energy and the chaotic relative-time accelerations of interstellar travel; for which the ramiffications were not immediately evident. It manifested as a horribly painful plague on their people; a dissolution at the atmoic level. Immediately, the warrior-race sent out agents, acting in teams of two, across the galaxy to inhabbited planets, seeking hope.
Xzicst warrior Ksyx is follower of the race's ideologic religeon based on the sanctity of Warfare and warrior-worship that keeps their caste society stable. Fast and agile by racial standards, Ksyx is concidered female for the sake of refferences, though no warrior breeds until they are old and no longer capable of fighting.
