Background

Origin

Spoiler Warning
The following details are about a player-created storyline, or is information currently unrevealed about a character.
Please do not use this information ICly unless given permission to do so.

Ria-27 is a small planet located within one of the further and most isolated sectors of the Andromeda Galaxy as a home world capable of supporting life through a similar albeit heavier-gravitational (due to having two moons influencing certain phenomena on the planet's surface) atmosphere compared to the larger earth. Rians, natives of the planet, are composed of three separate primary races: The humanoid Bura-Rians, the energy forms of Fatalist-Rians and the slightly more primitive primate-like Azeks. The Bura-Rians with the highest population exist much like human beings, and through the perception of their planet possess no special attributes beyond what they are capable of or potentially capable of from nature and nurture.

Fatalist-Rians are literal forms of mental energy that have claimed to be a race to have existed long before the early Bura ever came into existence as a community. For Thousands of years the highly intelligent Fatalists have dominated the general believe system of the planet, in which dictate that they can sense the thread of fate each and every single living thing possesses - one that cannot be severed or changed to escape a sure destiny.

Fate may or may not have been perceived as a multi-layered platform, though the tampering of which was believed on loose evidence to have repercussions that affected far-off worlds. Since the age of the coming of modern society the Fatalists have developed a means of manifesting as physical beings that mimic the life-forms they mingle with in order to establish effective communication, experience pleasures and pains, and live within the physical world to better understand it. The Fatalists have taken it upon themselves to integrate themselves as the ultimate form of judge and jury, and modern society upon the planet today expresses them as such prominent figures of royal families and high positions that others have succumbed to.

Talas X'theten was a Fatalist born into the equivalent of a such a royal family; a destined prince of his kind. Talas expressed a particularly gifted form of innovation even from an early age, and was quick to indulge within the future concerns of Ria-27 as a whole. Like most of his kind he was required to endure rigorous education and training in order to hone his psychic abilities, especially to utilize such effectively while retaining permanent physical formations. During the period of his growth into an adult manifestation, the high council of Ria had moved to inact a decision that was deliberated for nearly a century; brought upon by several witnessed occasions across other worlds in which many beings demonstrated powers and abilities of great threat and disruption to the Fatalist system.

Through this decision, an affiliation known as CERES was established and partnered with the Intergalactic Travel Association of Sciences - their sole purpose to travel to other planets in and around their own galaxy as covert CERES operatives to stop and prevent such twisting of destiny from fully coming to fruition from its series of potential paths to conserve the well-being of the universe. Talas become one of its more prominent albeit youngest members once he was of maturity, and after only a few Rian years of physical and mental preparation, he was assigned one of the most difficult locations to serve as one of the CERES agents and overseers; the notorious planet Earth.

Such a planet even the next galaxy away had accomplished feats that reached the ears of many, and the only Earth visitor to Ria-27 a couple of centuries ago left most of the Fatalists secretly disturbed. Talas would be granted an appropriated locomotive traveling sphere with preset co-ordinates to Earth. After a year's time, the pod would enter the planet's atmosphere utilizing an electromagnetic cloaking setting that would render it undetectable by most means until he was much too far into the atmosphere.

The Present

Arrival to Earth

Talas' pod would experience mild turbulence which slightly altered its directory in the last hour of decent, which resulted in its rough landing within the waters of Vibora Bay. The impact of the landing caused a cratered localized tremor, in which alerted the local authorities immediately. Unknown to Talas within a temporary stasis, PRIMUS technology in addition to magical sources was able to detect the unknown comet-like pod object prematurely soon as it entered American airspace.

As a result PRIMUS operatives immediately responded to the estimated crash sight and arrived upon the scene within the hour. The unknown metallic substance material that the pod was created from was unable to be breached, and instead was relocated to one of its most advanced sights located just out of Millennium City.

Talas would awaken two days later and open the pod from the inside panel, stepping out into a laboratory with several faces staring back at the slightly unusual male humanoid of Bura physique. As the start of his more covert ambitions he would willingly cooperate with PRIMUS, revealing his name, title, place of origin and his educational and peaceful intentions for coming to the planet.

Talas utilized some of his more natural charms to gain almost immediate trust - spending only one week under supervision to become more oriented with the culture and status quo. In return for citizenship on a temporary basis to carry out his observations, he agreed to register and utilize his alien abilities as a crime fighter and developing 'superhero' utilizing the title The Fatalist.

PSI Obsession

It was only natural for one of The Fatalist's nature to perceive the personally overwhelming presence of PSI initiates in Millennium City sooner rather than later. It was fate that caused one of his first couple assignments to relate to PSI activities, and within the first encounter of several psychic numbers hooked a polarized obsession with feeding upon individuals any chance he could for their ripe mental energy.

His presence became so well known so quickly to PSI in fact, that it would immediately demand the attention of Psimon, Medusa and Mind Slayer. Learning that their normal methods of psychic assault would prove highly ineffective against someone that simply fed upon it, Psimon would enlist the assistance of PSI engineer and inventor Professor Psychosis; an associate and indirect operative of PSI that while usually occupied with various side projects that took the organization into consideration, never really made himself too public-known as a villainous identity.

It was Fatalist that managed to bring him forward, and as one of his primary assignments Psychosis was instructed to keep careful tabs on the vampiric alien in order to attempt to draw him out or counter him during his appearances to immediately disrupt PSI aspirations. Though his first primary schemes did little to actually halt Fatalist, he has grown to be a familiar face to the hero, where the two more often than not find themselves clashing as rivals for different reasons.

Personality

What You Get at the Beginning

Through a combination of his actual personality, manipulation, deception and natural attributes, Fatalist prefers to carry himself as a very charming, kind, helpful and sensual individual. He remains intelligent, intuitive and happy to learn of new things. He genuinely values friends and allies that assist him and do not get within his way, and grants them his loyalty. Since developing his physical body and senses, Fatalist appears quite open-minded when it comes to indulgence and pleasures.

What You Don't until the End

Spoiler Warning
The following details are about a player-created storyline, or is information currently unrevealed about a character.
Please do not use this information ICly unless given permission to do so.

Fatalist is truly, albeit almost secretly considered both an anti-hero or anti-villain depending on the circumstances, for even the good deeds he accomplishes is only to mask his own personal goals and ambitions that, in his opinion, are far superior than the lives of Earth. On some occasions he has seriously harmed or killed criminals when it is necessary or convenient for him to absorb enough mental energy to sustain himself or further his tasks. Fatalist purposely seeks out psychics to prey upon from his own vampirism, and if that means that someone of a considerable poor moral alignment isn't available he will readily manipulate allies. Most are also unaware that he has no morality as a psionic, and will pry, bore and invade the minds and private thoughts as he sees fit. Through his own perception and beliefs he is doing a greater good in preventing fate and the time-lines from being breached, severed or manipulated from their destined paths. Because of this he is especially fearful of time travelers and most forms of time manipulation; such individuals usually in danger of being investigated, confronted, interrogated, hunted or even destroyed.

Known Superhuman Powers, Attributes and Abilities

Racial Attributes

While his true form is a different story, his current assumed form is that of Bura brother-species on his planet. Bura physiologically has developed identical to a human being's sans a few notable details:

  • Bura ears are developed with pointed ends.
  • Bura possess notable leg muscle strength over the normal parameters of human beings.
  • Bura hair and eye colors are almost always of the lighter shades. Body hair can assume colors ranging within the pink, purple, violet and blue spectrums. Eye colors range in light blues, greens, greys and violets. It is uncommon otherwise.
  • Bura exist on a dense planet with higher levels of natural gravitational pull despite its smaller size in general. As a result, Earthbound Bura experience greater physical prowess that surpasses humans. However, they seem to have an inferior sense of taste.
  • Bura radiate a substantial pheromone naturally that affects most humanoid races in varying degrees. It typically acts as a 'feel-good' chemical, though may also cause social or physical attraction effects.
  • Bura possess a more keen sense of smell compared to human beings naturally, and are capable of perceiving pheromones more readily.
  • Bura appear to retain a better degree of thought-processing and multi-tasking compared to human beings.

WIP

The Mind

Psychic Vampirism: The core of Fatalist's stamina, regeneration and power stems from the consistent absorption of mental energy or psyche from sentient organisms through his ability to to remotely feed off the minds of one or more targets at any given time. The process of doing so enables him to store and retain access energy for prolonged usage. Depending on the amount of mental energy he drains from victims, the repercussions vary. Minor draining renders others mentally and emotionally exhausted, weak willed, with difficulty in cognitive and in-cognitive processes and memory, and disorientation. Stronger amounts of draining yield more dominant effects, including extreme bodily weakness, blackouts, short or long term comatose, and to the most extreme degree death. The most substantial energy comes from other psionics and mentalists themselves.

Will Manifestation: The Fatalist is highly trained in utilizing the power of his mind in manifesting and projecting mental energy, whether completely from himself, or utilizing that of the excess energy he has absorbed from other beings. He is capable of for example, conjuring mental force-fields, varying shapes and constructs or simply releasing the mental energy as a powerful damaging outward force.

Pheromone Emanation: The Fatalist's body passively, naturally and consistently secretes a psychoactive type of pheromone that has proven to affect most humanoid, sentient, and semi-sentient races and species he comes across regardless of sex. Naturally the pheromone instills a 'feel-good' affect and pleasure stimulation, though depending upon the individual, it also carries the side-effects of social or physical attraction, or light hypnotic-suggestive applications. Though it can effect others within his immediate proximity as an airborne chemical, pheromone transfer is most concentrated through skin to skin contact.

Telepathy: The Fatalist is an extremely powerful and disciplined intellect and telepath, easily capable of scanning thoughts as if second nature. More forceful techniques enable him to penetrate as deep as the unconscious, create false memories, manipulate brain functions and perceive feelings and memories that are long forgotten, or required to be pieced together. He is capable of communicating telepathically over extremely long distances, especially when concentrated on pin-point targets.

Mental Resistance: The Fatalist's mind is extremely powerful - both racially and through rigorous discipline. Only the most powerful of mentalists are able to breach his various psionic blocks that his intricate mind possesses, and even still it does not come without the struggle of their lives if they wish to achieve more prolonged effects. Not even Menton has demonstrated ease when dealing with the alien life-form.

The Body

Longevity and Agelessness: Fatalist Rians bare lifespans that can span for several centuries. A side-effect of shape-shifting to mimic their surroundings, and consistently feeding upon the mental energy of others enables them to retain maximum youth, strength and an ageless-oriented appeal until they expire.

Superhuman Strength: Within Earth's environment of lower gravity, The Fatalist demonstrates alien strength that surpasses natural peak ability of normal humans. He is able to lift and bench press weights of up to 5 tons, especially when sated.

Superhuman Durability: The Fatalist's body is very durable compared to that of normal human beings. He has demonstrated feats such as deflecting gunfire with little damage to himself, resist the lower depth pressure of the oceans, and withstanding semi-extremes of heat and cold without permanent injury to himself.

Superhuman Stamina: The Fatalist is capable of experiencing continuous action without needing to rest or pause for long periods of time, especially when sated. His body does not produce exhaustion-inducing toxins as readily through necessity, and he is usually able to recover fairly quickly should he ever become disoriented.

Superhuman Speed and Flight: Theorized to be either a gravity negation, an extension of his psychic will or a combination of both, The Fatalist can achieve levitation and flight as common means of locomotion. His top speed has been estimated between 70-100 MPH.

Abilities

Intelligence and Learning: Fatalist not only enjoys learning new things, but is great at retaining information and processing thoughts.

Manipulation: Through his own charm, whether genuine or artificial, Fatalist has always been adept in deception and manipulating others in order to meet goals. The fact that his defenses are so powerful makes it almost impossible for the general public to pull down the veil.

Modern Technology: The technology in general of Earth is slightly inferior compared to the level of development that is present on Ria-27. As a result, it is not difficult for Talas to utilize basic technologies, especially with computer software and hardware.

RP Hooks

  • His homeworld though rather isolated and not as well-known as other planets in the nearby system, nor Andromeda as a whole, well traveled or knowledgeable beings will certainly identify his physical attributes as a Bura-Rian.
  • As the only one of his race to currently occupy Earth and the second documented being to ever originate from Ria-27, affiliations or individuals dealing with extra-terrestrials will be quite aware of his public-record made arrival.
  • 'The Fatalist' has a developing PRIMUS database profile that can be accessed by anyone who possesses permission to do so.
  • Anyone associated with PSI (or Mind Inc) will certainly know of Fatalist's identity, as he has posed a great threat to their operations in general.

Trivia

  • Character inspirations (looks, personality, moral codes, etc.) include older characters mashed together, Marvel's Starfox, Namor and Gladiator, and other minor influences.
  • The character's first name "Talas" was named after a province/river of Kyrgyzstan.
  • Because his race originated from a state of sentient albeit incorporeal energy and have only begun to assume physical forms in the modern age of civilization, Talas identifies as a true pansexual due being able to discover/enjoy physical stimulation while lacking the primary biological coding and reasoning for such perceived sexualities/preferences in the first place.
  • Talas's perception of beauty remains the same despite his relocation to Earth, and applies the same judgements he passes upon the Bura on Ria-27. This emphasizes the beauty he finds in short or shaved hair, and presumption of uncleanliness with the unkempt or elongated regardless of sex. Body modifications (tattoos, piercings, etc.) are considered ill-fated as they only represent the destruction of a once perfect shell.
  • Talas's current number of murders, totaled including pre-Earth: 4 (known executions on Ria), 3 (unknown on Earth).
