Akiahr
Gender: Male
Age: Around 33
Affiliation: None
Race/Species: Zaraii (mutant race)
Appearance:
With tanned skin, black, long lashed eyes and raggedy long black hair, Akiahr is about as close to gorgeous as a guy can get. He is excellent with any weapon and a powerhouse hand to hand fighter. His weapon of choice is the sword, in which he is a master. It is a very foolish individual who challenges him. Like his feline ancestors, he has large canines and deadly retractable claws on his fingers.
Akiahr's muscle mass is very accentuated as he has very little fat. He has a thin ridge of one inch long hair, fine and black, from the nape of the neck extending to a point near his hips. This ridge is capable of piloerection. When he is startled or aroused these hairs will raise.
He weighs in at around 315 pounds and stands a towering 7' 6". Often he has difficulty with things made for smaller races.
He has little concern for what he is wearing at any given time and he's not afraid to be unclothed. He's usually told what to put on. Without this 'help,' he'll wear whatever feels comfortable in. Sometimes this results in rather outlandish attire. Also, he wears no jewellery like rings, torcs or bracelets. He thinks this stuff is silly.
Personality:
Zaraiin like Akiahr are usually very serious. They are easily roused to action. Akiahr will not be coaxed into smiling as to him, that's a snarl. Since he is an individual who enjoys exploring, he occasionally manages to say or do something silly or inappropriate because of his innate curiosity and willingness to try odd, for him, things. He gets into trouble by simply being his own curious, exploratory self.
He is intelligent, well able to learn and usually manages to pick up on the behavior of others fairly quickly. Sometimes.
Humor is foreign to him, but he doesn't mind it in others.
While most Zaraiin have a deadly hate for other males, Akiahr will ignore them mostly, but he can be moved to friendship if the other isn't challenging or nasty. He will defend anyone he takes as a friend to the death if need be. He is often very hard headed and can be difficult to turn from a task he undertakes.
As for females, he is their slave pretty much and he will take behavior from them that he would never allow of another male. If having a one person male is the female's focus, which in some species it is, she will not find that in Akiahr. He is a devoted and caring stud, but it isn't in his nature to be monogamous. He doesn't romance those attracted to him, he simply befriends them and things seem to proceed from there, somewhat like friends with benefits. He isn't a creature who feels love, but he does feel affection for certain individuals. For Akiahr, sex is not only a job, it is a reward. He loves to be touched, but only by those he knows.
He is trustworthy, however he will take things. He always brings them back but often not in the same condition they started off in. There are times when his actions are misunderstood and he finds this very puzzling. With an innocence that belies his breeding and training, he is often frank and not afraid to speak his mind. He also tends to drive others crazy with his constant need to understand and learn.
History:
The Zarai have a long and war-like history, mainly between each other. In the beginning, Akiahr's kind were big cats, called ligaron. This mammalian species evolved into the Zarai, a sexually dimorphic and sentient race.
In their history, males were very dominant and highly aggressive individuals, making constant battle a rather tiresome occurrence for the females, who found themselves passed about like glasses of beer between the winners, with the losers only winding up as slaves.
Since more females than males are born, the females ganged up on the powerful males and took over, gradually turning the situation into a democratic monarchy ruled solely by the females. Males were relegated to slavery and used for breeding.
From the very day they can walk, males are trained to fight and obey. When they are mature, they are trained in the sexual arts. They can be rather pampered due to their relative rarity and well trained ones can command a hefty price on the block, both for their bloodlines and for their prowess in the pits and in bed. Females are schooled into whatever career they wish.
Zaraiin live to around 150 to 175 years, with the end of childhood coming at ten years of age. A juvenile reaches full maturity at about 30 years of age. Their breeding life continues until death, which is usually from heart problems. Males are built very much with an eye for attractiveness, agility and power.
Species Abilities and Weaknesses:
Due to the feline background of the race, there are certain attributes common to all : They have strong, pointed canine teeth, not in evidence when the mouth is closed, but quite apparent when directly viewed and much larger than a human’s, a tendency to tallness, very little body fat and a strong, ‘quick twitch’ type of muscle attached to a sturdy frame of dense bone, much harder than a human’s due to the stresses put on them by the stronger muscle mass.
In males the fingers and toes tend to be slightly longer than a human’s. Their toes have short, sharp claws and not nails. On their hands, from the second joint to the tip. Instead of nails, Zaraii possess strong three inch long retractable claws.
The Zarai are omnivorous, but must eat a certain amount of meat daily to retain good health. Males stand from 6ft to over 7ft and are the true showpieces of the race. They have been selectively bred for many generations to be what humans would consider beautiful, but in a masculine way.
All Zarai have heightened senses compared to ours, with keener hearing, eyesight and a well-developed sense of smell. They also possess the tapetum lucidum seen in most earth-dwelling mammals, allowing them to see very well in the dark and their eyes will reflect light. They are highly intelligent, on a par with humans, and can be very quick to assimilate information.
Zaraiin can take a hit from a sword that would break a human's bones and not even limp. Their skin is very tough and hard to puncture, even with a needle.. Their bone density is harder than a human's and their rib cage possesses extra ribs that are quite closely spaced, giving them an almost armored chest to protect their vital organs. Females do not have this adaptation.
Males emit a pheromone that is attractive to females. Sometimes this can cause problems. Not all females are responsive to this, with certain other species having immunity.
Zarai are not immortal and they have little immunity to unfamiliar diseases. Males cannot read or write. This is not thought of as necessary for them. Despite a nearly indestructible body, Zaraii may be killed and/or injured during any type of explosion. An injury to the heart is fatal. In order to heal from severe wounds or illness, Zaraii will sleep. Males require a lot of food to fuel their rather hyperactive metabolism. If they do not eat enough, they become lethargic. Very loud noises can disorient them. They aren't particularly fond of water, but they can swim if necessary.
History:
Akiahr is from a previously unknown group of mutants ruled by the females of his kind. His people have a long and war-like history, mainly between each other. In the beginning, Akiahr's kind were big cats, called ligaron. This species evolved into the Zarai, a sexually dimorphic and sentient race.
In their history, males were very dominant and highly aggressive individuals, making constant battle a rather tiresome occurance for the females, who found themselves passed about like glasses of beer between the winners, with the losers only winding up as slaves.

Females are often tall and are always attractive. They are shrewd and able merchants. They are well experienced in settling differences and their government is run expertly.
Sexual dimorphism, in case you are not savvy on this term, means that there is a distinct difference between the males and the females. In the Zaraii, males are significantly larger than the females, often topping out at close to eight feet in height. They are quite naturally muscular and are strikingly beautiful creatures in a masculine way. While the females possess an exotic and humanlike loveliness, the males are bred to attract females, which they do with ease.
Akiahr has been trained not only to fight and breed, but to explore and learn about other cultures.
