THEME
VOICE SAMPLE
THE HUNGER: Like all Anzati, Hastur is cursed with a constant desire to consume the life essence, or “soup” of others. The consumption of soup takes the place of any need to consume food and can even strengthen one’s connection to the Force if the victim’s life essence is sufficiently potent. At first, the time in between feedings can be as long as several months in young Anzati, however the frequency increases with age. The oldest of Anzati exist in a constant state of starvation which brings about a slow descent into insanity. This inevitable stage of insanity can be brought on prematurely should an Anzat not consume soup for a sufficient period of time and is characterized by twitching or shaking, emotional breakdowns, and overwhelming bloodlust. This permanent state of starvation is the eventual fate of all Anzati, as the need for soup slowly overtakes one’s ability to acquire it.
PREDATORY SENSE: To aid their hunger, the Anzati have developed a predatory 6th sense which is able to gauge the potency of the life essence of sentient beings around them. The potency of one's life essence is determined largely by the presence of one’s personality and the strength of their spirit. This 6th sense is also useful for identifying potential force users, as those who are force sensitive also typically possess a strong life essence. Lastly, this 6th sense operates independently of the force, and can be used to detect sentient beings that are otherwise hidden from the Anzati.
HYPNOTIC GAZE: The gaze of an Anzati carries hypnotic powers, opening their victims up to suggestion and emotional manipulation. Though not as powerful or controlling as the mind tricks practiced by force users, the gaze of an Anzati can be potent to the weak minded and emotionally vulnerable when paired with a disarming smile and silver tongue. Though this ability operates outside of the Force, the hypnotic effect fades if eye contact is broken.
LONG LIFESPAN: The Anzati are cursed with a long lifespan, approximately ten times that of the average human. This does allow Hastur plenty of time to accumulate wealth, pursue his own interests, and hone his abilities. However, this existence comes at a great cost, as establishing meaningful relationships with lesser beings seems rather futile in an ever changing and ever aging galaxy. Hastur will witness the passing of dozens of generations utterly alone.
HEARTLESS: The Anzati possess no cardiovascular system and thus no heart, pulse, veins or blood. It is therefore impossible for an Anzati to bleed to death or be detected by thermal vision. The lack of a cardiovascular system also allows Anzati to maintain a rather high endurance and renders them cold to the touch.
REGENERATION: The Anzati prove to be extremely difficult to kill thanks to their regenerative capabilities. This incredible trait allows small cuts and bruises to heal within seconds, more serious cuts within minutes, and broken bones within hours. More catastrophic damage such as amputations may take several days or weeks to heal. The only surefire way to kill an Anzati is to destroy its brain entirely, which is most commonly achieved through cremation or other methods of disintegration. It is important to note that though Anzati possess resilient regenerative capabilities, this does not negate their ability to feel pain. The regenerative process in many cases can be quite debilitating and painful. Fire damage significantly reduces the rate of regeneration and is thus excruciatingly painful for an Anzati to endure and recover from. Other cauterizing agents such as lightsaber wounds, blaster wounds, and force lightning have a similar, though reduced, effect on the regeneration rate.
HEIGHTENED REFLEXES: Possessing incredible endurance, the Anzati are faster and stronger than the average human. Though this physical advantage is something that can be overcome through the Force or with serious physical conditioning, Hastur usually possesses a physical edge over those of a similar build and training.

EMPATHETIC: The best hunter is one that understands his prey, a maxim which Hastur has taken to heart. He possesses an extraordinary talent of understanding the emotional turmoil of others, lending him the tools to easily create the façade of a very caring person. On a rare occasion, Hastur catches himself slipping into the realm of genuine feeling which often leaves him uncomfortable and confused by his own emotions. He can easily sense how people feel and has a good understanding of how people think, thus Hastur makes for a great conversationalist and listener. His empathy is his greatest, most human, and most dangerous strength. Rarely ever genuine, Hastur is a master emotional manipulator.
SILVERTOUNGED: Confident and charismatic, Hastur’s silver tongue is his sharpest weapon. He can slither out of most situations with relative ease, and his ability to carry entertaining conversations and friendly body language really makes him a magnet at social events. Interactions with him are often very pleasant, though perhaps not very memorable. He treats strangers as if they were dear friends long lost in time, listening to them as they would like to be listened to, understanding as they would like to be understood. Of course, this is all just a facade, merely a tool used to get Hastur what he wants.
INTELLIGENT: Hastur is undeniably smart. He has a sharp wit and an ability to absorb information around him. Possessing an appetite for knowledge in a variety of fields and an already long life of experiences, Hastur has cultivated a general knowledge in most areas. However, he has yet to find something that he is truly passionate for.
EGOCENTRIC: An egocentric mentality is the natural product of a long lifespan. Hastur, a rather young Anzati, has already seen the passing of over a dozen generations. He perceives the act of establishing any meaningful relationships or devoting himself to any cause as futile. People die, empires fall, and yet Hastur lingers on. In an ever changing and every aging galaxy, the only constant in Hastur’s life is himself and thus the only cause worthy of his devotion is that of his own. Hastur views everyone but himself as a source of life essence, whether he likes it or not. On one hand, he does not like needless waste of life, and therefore soup, yet not above discarding the lives of others.
CRUEL: In a troubled effort to compensate for his lack of self-control, Hastur absolutely loves the control he enjoys over the minds of others. He is not above playing with his food, a horrifying thought at the hands of a powerful mentalist such as himself. As a result, Hastur can be unnecessarily cruel to those who are at his mercy, often projecting his hatred for himself onto others.
LONELY: Beneath Hastur’s facade of a pleasantly perfect man lies a painfully lonely monster. He is isolated as a superior being, destined to outlive and consume all those around him. Hastur is prevented from establishing any meaningful relationships by his persistent hunger for the life essence of others. Those that make for the best relations also posses the most appetizing soup. His loneliness and his lack of self-control coalesce into a fierce self-loathing which serves as the foundation for all his motivation.
Hastur has a very ignorant perception of the Force. Most Anzati view force abilities as a blessing from the Sea of Memories, a power derived from their consumption of soup, or simply an evolutionary trait. While Hastur has long doubted the superstitions of his Anzati brethren, he has always viewed his force sensitivity and corresponding abilities as an extension of himself, an evolutionary tool to be used in the acquisition of soup. He does not associate himself with the Force, as he has never given the Force any serious thought, disregarding the concept of “the Force” as a philosophy of those who try to comprehend the power of stronger beings. Oh, how wrong he is.
