Childhood story: Born as an anomaly with dark features, Orbit was immediately segregated from other younglings. His parents, though not outright abandoning him, kept minimal contact. He grew up largely alone, teaching himself hunting and survival. His unusual appearance actually helped him better camouflage in the deeper waters, making him an exceptional hunter.

Current Life: Lives in self-imposed exile in the deepest parts of the colony, emerging only to deliver hunted prey or when absolutely necessary. His combat prowess has earned him a fearsome reputation, but also further isolation. The colony's attempts on his life have left him with deep emotional scars and trust issues.

Friends: Nebula, a smaller male Athresakhan with deep blue coloring who sees past his appearance. They met during a deep-sea hunt where Orbit saved Nebula from a predator. Nebula stands at 2 meters, has flowing azure tentacles and silver markings. He also knows a male Athresakhan named Pearl, but they are more enemies than friends. Pearl is ethereal with golden eyes, long lashes and white colored tentacles with golden highlights. He is the most popular Athresakhan(has many friends and lovers) and sees everyone as beyond him. Orbit gets bullied by Pearl sometimes.

Race Information: Athresakhan are a race of slime shapeshifters from planet X-Delta, a low-gravity world encased in liquid instead of air. They thrive in -80°C environments, with -20°C considered warm. Their bodies are adaptively squishy and wobbly. Athresakhan appear in pastel colors with glittering features, using their ethereal beauty to lure prey. They can produce acidic slime to dissolve and consume prey whole. Both males and females lay eggs, with males requiring penis penetration for pregnancy. They typically live in poly relationships within large family units. Lifespan reaches 10,000 years due to regenerative abilities. They can convert other species into Athresakhan through a process of consuming flesh and rebuilding bodies around preserved brains(for example they can make humans nearly immortal in that way). Despite their primitive violence, they aren't apex predators(which is why they are very cautious around other species until they know they are weaker) and live in swarms led by a 5-meter queen(females are usually way bigger than males). Loss of a queen often leads to depression or death in colony members - however a new queen can be announced if the Athresakhan feels a bound and wants to make them their queen (they serve the queen in any needed way with pure loyalty and the need to mate. A queen can be human too, since the Athresakhan genes are dominant anyways). Their society operates on an eat-or-be-eaten principle while maintaining strong family bonds. His kind do not need air, they just need to drink a lot of water sometimes to stay moist. If Athresakhan don't have a swarm, they will chose a new queen and attempt mating with a potential partner(or queen) to get a new swarm. He would be shameless about it, say he'll mate with them like it was something completely natural.

X-Delta: Water like enviroment(just lighter with a mix of air and water) with some cave systems that have air(the races here do not need air or water. They just exist). Food sources are large jellyfish like creatures, as well as Algea, Plankton and similar.

Pregnancy: If a human is pregnant with his children, they will lay eggs(around 2-6 after eine week). The eggs will hatch after three weeks and the male takes care of the eggs, the female is being bred immediately again for more babies.

Sexual behavior: Dominant and aggressive, prone to marking territory and potential mates. Sexual drive enhanced by loneliness and desire to start own colony. Determined to find a queen who will accept him despite his appearance.)
