• Average Lifespan: Approximately 150 GSY
• Estimated Population: Semi-Unique
• Description: The Kyn'arak are monstrous behemoths that project an aura of colossal rage, deceived by the inherent malevolence burning behind its many eyes. These creatures are towering killing machines pushed far beyond the limits of their forms into something entirely new. A highly concentrated acid boils so great beneath the surface, it glows through its hard chitinous, impervium hard carapace. These are multi limbed, tendril clad beasts of claw, tendril, blade, that swing and gnash with the promise of flesh soon to be torn and blood to be spilt. These creatures tower over nearly all on the battlefield and shake the earth with every footfall. They exist for one purpose, to destroy everything around them.

They all maintain a towering height and the same base shape reminiscent of a ravager brute.

• Manufacturer: Draelvasier | Rakvul
• Affiliation: Bryn'adul-Xaelesh Protectorate
• Market Status: Closed-Market
• Model: Xaeldrask-Pattern Energy Spear
• Modularity: No
• Production: Limited
• Material:
  • Malabast

• Classification: Energy Spear
• Size: Very Large
• Weight: Very Heavy

• Plasma Ignition System: One of the features of the Obliterator is the addition of a plasma ignition system utilizing Draemidus Finis Crystal. Through this every round is effectively ignited in crimson plasma, increasing its velocity and penetrating power, and magnifying the thermal damage inflicted upon targets. It vastly increases the damage output.
• Verpine: Through the introduction of verpine shatter rail system, the weapon accelerates rounds fired to a hypersonic velocity. The extreme velocity attached to such a weapon gives them explosive power that is comparable to an anti-material rifle or a rail gun.
• Range & Neural Link: As befitting its role as a Sniper Rifle, the Obliterator posts an impressive range with an ability to reach nearly any target on the battlefield, in part to design and the impressive modular scope system it's equipped with. Furthermore, one of its most advanced features is the miniaturized Kraemonen and Mind Stone inside each one. The Kraemonen acts as a brain for the weapon while the Mind Stone is its method of communion with its wielder. All a Drael has to do is hold the weapon to link with it, others of various species cannot use it. This further helps a Drael with the calculations for long distance shots, ensuring them greater efficiency than most standard sniper teams.

• Heavy: The Obliterator is a weapon designed to be utilized by the monstrous Draelvasier. To nearly anyone else holding the weapon its weight, and size make it impractical or even unusable in combat.
• Precision: This weapon was designed specifically to be a precision weapon, specifically designed for the careful elimination of targets. It contains low ammunition capacity, and a lower firing rate.

• Intent: To create a new terrifying species of Draeyde made by Rakvul that live aboard the Scourge and will feature in many stories to come.

  • Draeyde
  • Sraeljoarsk
  • Sun Quaker
  • Voul'dakesh

• Name: Blood Draeyde
• Designation: Non-Sentient
• Origins: Created aboard the Scourge.
• Average Lifespan: Approximately 2 GSY if left alone. Significantly shorter when active in conflict.
• Estimated Population: Planetary
• Description: The Blood Draeyde are a horrifying variant of the vicious creatures created by the Draelvasier known as the Draeyde. These small, terrifying batlike creatures are covered with blood red scales and black skin. Their talons and maws always look slick as if dipped in freshly spilt blood. These creatures were created as a direct evolution of the Draeyde to become something greater. They are a living scourge of numerous, small, hungering monsters who move faster than the eye can see. In battle these creatures are a force of nature shredding all life until nothing remains. These sadistic creatures seem to revel in carnage, feasting off the terror of those around them.

• Breathes: I, II, III, IV
• Average Height of Adults: 0.15m
• Average Length of Adults: 0.1m - 0.3m
• Skin Color: Blood red scales, black skin.
• Hair Color: N/A
• Distinctions: Small scaled batlike creatures. These monsters have a single pair of back legs with slick talons, multiple pairs of wings one of which that act as front limbs. When flying their back legs fold against their body causing them to disappear entirely. Their large maws are filled with jagged, oily teeth. While primarily covered in blood red scales, the skin on their wings, and other parts of their body are jet black setting them apart from the normal Draeyde. They have pale red eyes that seem to glow in the darkness.
• Races: N/A
• Force Sensitivity: Non-Sensitive

• Toxic: The Blood Draeyde carry a highly concentrated, deadly hemotoxin that coats their teeth and talons. It was at such a high volume of toxicity that it turned their scales blood red and their skin black. When struck it has the potential to cause the victim to bleed uncontrollably, as well as their cells losing the ability to clot. This makes wounds incredibly difficult to heal even with bacta infusion.
• Evolved: As a species the Blood Draeyde were a direct evolution of the Draeyde. This means they are stronger, faster, tougher, and smarter than the species they had evolved from. Overall, they are considered to be a superior race.

• Extreme Photosensitivity: While an evolved race the Blood Draeyde still retain the extreme sensitivity to light. As a whole they cannot survive in direct sunlight, concentrated beams of light and even bright enough lights are enough to cause them pain and ward them away from areas. Unlike their predecessor, the Blood Draeyde won't immediately die in direct sunlight. It will still kill them they are still able to function for a limited time, to possibly seek darkness for example.
• Durability: As a whole the Blood Draeyde are designed to be a swarm race utilizing great numbers and extreme speed to reach their enemies, elude their attacks and consume them. They are not biologically equipped to handle pitched battle. While their hide is stronger this means they may survive the initial blow. Individually they will fall rather quickly to attacks that manage to connect.

• Diet: Carnivore
• Communication: The Blood Draeyde communicate through high pitched screams; they cannot speak verbally but can understand certain commands.
• Technology Level: N/A
• Religion/Beliefs: N/A
• General Behavior: The Blood Draeyde are a pack-based species which does not exist alone. They live in vast swarms numbering into the millions. While Draeyde co-exist with the Voul'dakesh which often work alongside them, the Blood Draeyde do as well. Due to their distinctive evolution the Blood Draeyde are considered to be apex predators ranked above their parent species. When left alone the Blood Draeyde follow their base biological imperative to hunt and consume. These vicious, bloodthirsty creatures revel in the fear of their victims. They are cunning hunters who devour every ounce of their victim leaving absolutely nothing behind.

The beasts of nightmare that would become the Blood Draeyde begin after the fall of the Bryn'adul Empire.

Everything began to collapse all at once as the Draelvasier struggled to survive. Communication broke down all across the worlds they once called their own, forces thrown into disarray. Despite all odds the Warlord Rakvul the Darkener and the legendary Scourge managed to survive. In time he fought fiercely to unite the broken forces that scattered into desperate warbands. Despite rumors of the Chieftain's death, he refused to believe them and instead, moved to unite what remained to ensure that Tathra Khaeus had something to come back to, to steer his people's survival. This new force would become known as the Bryn'adul Remnant, largest of its kind in the known galaxy. ​

​

But his efforts expanded far beyond uniting warbands, seizing assets. It expanded into the acquisition of the precious warbeasts that became a rare commodity. The Bryn'adul made extensive use of beasts of war throughout their efforts to burn the galaxy. The collection of such creatures expanded rapidly in Rakvul's forces. It became important to acquire such creatures so the work to create and breed them could be replicated by the remnant forces and include them once more. These efforts are what led him to seek one of the deadliest species ever brought to heel by the Draelvasier, the Draeyde.​

​

It was said after the fall that the Draelvasier lost control of the Draeyde when Tathra Khaeus disappeared, his hive disappearing.​
