STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES
- Giant Midget: As a Draelvasier, he is several times stronger and more agile than typical humanoids of his size and weight, even while still growing to adulthood.
- Adaptive: Having been trained to place strength above all else as a relatively weak individual compared to his peers, Dyyr has developed a hyper analytical thought pattern. He recognises potential threats and advantages in his situation quickly, adjusts to them deftly, and uses them relentlessly.
+- Ambitious: Dyyr's mind is bent fully on finding ways to climb to a more advantageous position in life. He is willing to use any opportunity that presents itself, even if it requires a level of dishonour and dishonesty typically eschewed by the Drael.
- Force Disorientation: While he has been made aware of his force sensitivity, Dyyr has had no training with the force. His eagerness to test his power often leads him to peril by disorienting himself in dangerous situations. This makes him a liability to his comrades and superiors.
- Heat Sensitive: Dyyr’s Aeravalin genetics make his body weak and susceptible to heat. He is weak in hot environments and heat-based weapons are lethally effective against him. He conversely thrives in the cold, but he has not yet found a way to use this to his advantage in his short life.
- Humility vacuum: During his time with the Bryn'Adul, Dyyr developed an inferiority complex. Now that he is living in the Demiraev of the Takara, that complex has inverted. Despite his reeducation, he still looks down on everything that isn't Bryn'Adul. It doesn't help that he now finds himself looking down on most people.
APPEARANCE: Dyyr still has some growing to do. He is shorter than the average Aeravalin and his carapace has yet to fully harden from dull white to gray. When compared to the standard races of the galaxy, Dyyr is a force to be reconned with. Over seven feet tall and weighing almost three hundred pounds, he at least has an imposing silhouette.

BIOGRAPHY:
If Dyyr T’pada’s short life has taught him anything, it is that in this galaxy, strength must come before all else. Having narrowly survived his Bedla’korum coming of age trials, he was drafted into the Barricas as a shaman in training where he finds himself learning to control and direct the fearsome war beasts of the Bryn’Adul. This is a typically dynamic childhood for a Draelvasier, and Dyyr has the advantage of being naturally born to two powerful Areavalin warlocks.
As he was trained in the turbulent crucible that is the Kad’Maera, he quickly realised the reason that strength is the first of the Seven Tenets revered by the Bryn’Adul. Areavalin serve as the strategic counterbalance to the hulking Baedurin which make up the backbone of the Bryn’Adul war machine. As such, they are smaller, lighter, and given to greater intelligence. Dyyr has learned that these advantages mean very little when faced with the trials that make up the Kad’Maera. Despite the apparent disadvantages of being both weaker than typical Baedurin and small for his size in comparison to standard Aeravalin, Dyyr has took this first of the Seven Tenets to heart. He will live to prove that strength means more than mere muscle mass.
Dyyr is the poster child of little man syndrome. On top of being born to the shortest of the three main Draelvasier races, he has also drawn the short stick of being a good old-fashioned shorty. In the culture of the Bryn’Adul, this is as good as a death sentence, but Dyyr made do. In an effort to get respect he outperformed the majority of his fellow trainees in tactical analysis, gathering reconnaissance, beast taming, and particularly genetic manipulation theory. He is fascinated by the Bryn practice of mutating other species into living weapons and was one of the best candidates in his class for that field. However, despite his talents with the beasts, Dyyr’s true obsession is in the force. During his Bedla’korum, it was discovered when he reached the end of his rope that he is force sensitive and potentially quite powerful.
Unfortunately, when deeper testing was performed, he found it difficult to identify and control his powers. His initial hope for deployment was to become a warlock, where he could use his carefully honed skills with the force to face the Bryn’Adul’s enemies on the battlefield with the rest of the Barricas. Much to his chagrin, he was instead assigned to use his gifts as a shaman, where he could practice exercising his abilities in a safer environment. Dyyr was embarrassed by this as shamans usually take a back seat to the beasts they control, who do the actual combat. To his despair, his superiors found that he fit perfectly where he was, but his drive to be respected by his peers drove him to a chance to prove himself. It appeared sooner than Dyyr expected and took a very different approach than he was prepared for. Acquiring strength sometimes requires a sacrifice of your comrades, your integrity, or your honor. But if there is one thing Dyyr T’Pada has learned in his short life, it is that strength must come before all else.
