Kenta Capris

Powers and Abilities

• Abilities and Vulnerabilities

  Chameleon This ability allows the Trys’tet to cloak itself and blend in with its surroundings. This ranges from simple camouflage all the way up to full on invisibility. The power allows the user to sneak in unseen (though not necessarily unheard) and perhaps glean information they otherwise wouldn’t be able to while visible.

  Fire Immunity As the ability suggests, they are immune to fire. This allows them to bodily block flames from harming others, wade through lava and the like. They are able to absorb fire without harm to themselves.

  Bloodrage The Trys’tet has little control of their anger. Once angered, the Trys’tet flies into a barbarian-like rage that can only be calmed by bloodshed. Kenta does not recognize friend or foe when enraged making it very dangerous for everyone around him.

• Trys'tet Clan

  Soul Clan
  General Role: Seers and shamans
  Hunger: Soul essence
  Clan Gift: Soul Sight. They are capable of shifting their vision to an ethereal sight to see the strength of one's soul.
  
  Soul Clan are the mystics, the seers, the fortune tellers. Those of this clan tend to operate in clouds of mystery and foresight. It is a common trait that those of Soul Clan are a bit on the absent-minded side. It is said that some of the soul clan like to bite their victims like a vampire does to mask the sensation of their victim losing soul energy.

• Attributes

  Trys’tet have several attributes that they select from to have a bonus to. Those attributes become supernatural in how powerful they are. They may select any one of their core attributes as their primary attribute. This attribute is raised to a supernatural high. This means they can lift beyond what a creature of their size normally can, move more gracefully or faster, tougher, smarter, wiser, more charismatic. They also chose a secondary attribute that is also enhanced likewise, though not normally as high. They also are required to have one decreased attribute (detrimental). Detrimental stats can be no higher than a 6 in D&D terms, but no lower than a 3.
  
  
  

  Constitution Primary Bonus: Increases ability to take damage immensely, granting damage reduction of two levels. Kenta is incredibly durable; his flesh acts like a non-Newtonian fluid when struck, gaining the constancy of reinforced concrete causing iron weapons to shatter upon his skin.

  Charisma Secondary Bonus: Like the primary, one is capable of picking up on micro-expressions and body language, but the details of such is less clear. One will be left with a gut feeling about how the other feels or if lying, but may not be perfect. While Kenta struggles with a lot of things, emotions are very clear to him. He is also quite charming with an enchanting grin and very welcoming mannerisms.

  Intelligence Detrimental Stat: Slow learner and doesn't tend to retain much information. This decreases all psionic potential by two steps, making it difficult for them to learn and manifest abilities. In many ways, Kenta is still like a child mentally. For example, even though he's bilingual, reading and writing are still at preschool levels and large words escape him. He also processes things slower, making him sluggish to react. Combat is near impossible for him less he just relies on his feral instinct.

• Positive Traits

  Regeneration
  Trys’tet as a species are very hardy. While they do not possess instant regeneration, they do have the capability to expend their stored energy to re-attach limbs and recover from most injuries. Utilizing their energy pool, a Trys’tet can regenerate a wound level of a wound per point of expended energy. Reattaching limbs requires two points to re-graft to their body.
  
  Plantspeech
  Trys’tet automatically gain the ability to speak with flora. They can communicate and understand them with relative ease. They gain the bonus language of Plantspeech racially.
  
  Shapeshifting
  Trys’tet are capable shapeshifting into three forms. They capable of taking on their anthro form, plant form and two other forms of their choosing. Once chosen, these forms are locked and cannot be changed without significant effort. To change these forms, a Trys’tet must return to their tree and meld with it, realigning their body to the new chosen form.
  
  Trys’tet Soul Plant
  All Trys’tet have a plant their soul is tethered to. This tether cannot be broken except in the event of the Soul Plant’s destruction. Should a Trys’tet be felled by any means, their soul is returned to their plant where they are regrown in a month. This is a harrowing experience and the wound that slays the Trys’tet leaves a mark on their soul in the form of a scar that remains on their body. Destroying this plant makes the Trys’tet vulnerable. Should the plant be destroyed and then the Trys’tet killed after, the Trys’tet is permanently slain with no recovery without aid of outside influence.
  
  Kenta's tree and true form is that of a Black Walnut Tree

  

  Psionic
  
  Trys’tet are psionic creatures. Many are in possession of psionic abilities, whether that manifests as empathy, telepathy or a kinesis of some kind, they all have some sort of psionic prowess.

• Negative Traits

  Wilting
  While a Trys'tet can survive on regular food, it is only a temporary substitute. Trys'tet need regular access to water, sun, and soil. Food turns to soil in the Trys'tet digestive system, but it is taxing on their body and takes a lot of energy to do so. Eating normal food only will starve a Trys'tet in a matter of weeks. If they do not have access to all 3 things, they will begin to wilt. They will show signs like their hair will turn brown and dry out. Their abilities will become weaker as time goes on. Without water, they burn more easily and take more damage from it. However, plants are very durable. Completely devoid of nutrients, water, and light, it will still take 2 months for the Trys'tet to die, though they will go into a coma after 4 or 5 weeks depending on how durable they are. No matter how long they are without food, it will only take them a few days to a week to become revitalized should they get what they need.
  
  Ability Score Detriment
  While Trys’tet are in possession of supernatural ability traits, they also have a key flaw. With this flaw, one of their ability scores suffers a penalty. This is chosen by the player and can be any of their attributes that are not enhanced. The detrimental ability score cannot go higher than that of the average furre/human. More often, this ability score is significantly lower than average and tends to be a negative on them.
  
  Magic Void
  Trys’tet are incapable of using magic. They do not have the capacity for magic, as they cannot tap into the ley-lines or magical forces.
  
  Essence Hunger
  While unique to each House, all Trys'tet must also feed on a type of essence. They can keep up to 6 units of essence in their body at one time and lose 1 unit every week. If they only have 2 left, their hunger is overwhelming and they lose the use of their abilities. If they only have 1 unit left, they frenzy until they satisfy their craving. At 0 units, they go into a coma until they are fed by another the essence in which they need. See the different clans for specifics. After being in a coma for 2 weeks the Trys’tet dies and is reborn from their tree (see Soul Plant) but are permanently affected by a Trys’tet Vulnerability.
