Role: War Mount and friend
Links: Aedan's Mount Barding
PHYSICAL INFORMATION
Age: 40ish Hard to tell with Krayt Dragons
Species: Krayt Dragon
Height: 7 meters
Length: 20 meters
Weight: 150 tons
Appearance: Darker than most Krayt Dragons this one is Black with almost silver scales on its belly.
SOCIAL INFORMATION
Name: Dha Kyr'am (Dark Death)
Loyalties: Aedan Miles
Notable Possessions: Saddle and Barding
Personality: This beast as some would call it shows almost unusual amounts of intelligence for its kind and when came to becoming Aedan’s mount choose him as much as he choose it. Friendly enough towards Aedan’s clan it is almost gentle around the younger ones of the clan at times allowing the children to climb upon it when they are not doing their chores. When in battle it changes to what some would call a blood thirsty beast consumed by battle rage until Aedan finally tells it that the fight is over and it can rest. Treating Aedan and his warriors as brothers almost it proves that loyalty is something that it has extra of.
Training:
Mounted Combat: Trained to work as one with its rider anticipating his movements and doing its best to help the rider emerge victorious.
Space Travel: This took time as Aedan found he had to use the force to ease the majestic beast into rest while they were leaving the planet from then on it was a matter of slowly getting the mount used to space travel.
Being around Others: This training was to make it so the beast could more easily determine who was an enemy of its rider as well as ally. Now being used to fighting amongst Clan Akaata taking it elsewhere and having Aedan dismount would end very badly for allies.
Combat Function: All of its extra training has been put into it being able to sync itself to Aedan with and without use of the force so that even without it the two of them are able to move and anticipate for each other. When Aedan is not mounted atop this mighty companion it turns into a terror of its own working to take down larger threats that may show themselves as a danger to Aedan’s clan as he fights those he deemed worthy of an equal fight.
Partial Domestication: Part of its training was to make sure that it understood the differences when it was time to fight and when it could relax. As this training progressed he started to let it be around the Clan’s children finding that the large creature actually seemed to enjoy and put up with the presence and antics of the children letting them climb atop its massive frame while it sunned itself.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Aedan Miles remembered one of his training trips to Tattoine where he stumbled upon the first corpse of one of these creatures and at the time knew it was beyond him but imagined one day riding one into combat as not a slave or pet but partner knowing that creatures like this deserved respect if they could work alongside him. Now two years later he returned to Tattoine and started the long tiring job of finding and bonding with one of these beasts finally doing so one day while wandering canyons near Mos Esiely and coming upon a trio of them fighting in its depths. Watching for a time the young Force User finally reached out with the force feeling and seeing one react to his touch with an unusual reaction. From there he watched as the three fought finally the smallest one, also the one that had reacted, emerged victorious but wounded. As he was getting ready to go down and approach it the worst possible thing happened Hutt thugs appeared in both openings somehow getting past his guard he had brought to watch out for Tuskan Raiders and such thugs to attempt and capture the now wounded Krayt Dragon. Watching as they taunted and teased the beast moving to trap it in a smaller canyon the young man finally gave a bellow of rage letting the Dark Side flow through him before he threw himself from the ledge he was on and into their midst. What followed the few survivors would describe as a crimson eyed demon in black armor with a glowing sword was tearing through their ranks as if they were nothing but grass to be cut down to size. When Aedan finally came out of the rage he had been consumed by he was greeted by the crouched and snarling Krayt Dragon with a thug in its mouth that had managed to get close behind him. Walking forward the young man had held up his hand and whispered a single string of words to the creature. “Come brother time to go.” Looking at him and almost as if understanding the Krayt Dragon stood and started to slowly follow the young man as he left. Upon returning to his ship and loading up on it the young man spent the long journey to his home on Kesh in the hold of the ship with the beast doing his best to heal its injuries as he maintained his force link with it deepening the bond he had with it.
