Countless rumors and tales are told to hatchlings of an outcast who resides at the highest altitudes in the northern mountain region.
His scales, gritty and vigorous, allow him to adapt to the harsh cold, unlike the rest of his species.
A feral-like personality has taken over him, inescapable.
The question that every toki has asked for generations is: how has he been able to live at such an old age, showing no sign of it coming to a stop.
Raki-Tak is a mysterious toki with an unusual body and crest color of light and dark grey.
He resides on the northern pole of Tarati where temperatures reach near uninhabitable levels by most species and oxygen levels are dangerously low.
He was once a former member of Rux-Aaroth, a nomadic tribe known for their endless raiding and plundering on unsuspecting villages. Due to his unnaturally old age, his body length is the same as an average elderly toki.
Personality
Raki-tak is best known for his unpredictably psychotic behavior, despite his suspiciously friendly personality towards outsiders.
Most of the time he is very charismatic and finds ways out of situations without the use of violence, but there are occasions where he ends up pushing things too far. Examples are using the fresh corpses of animals as poor disguises, or violently blowing up an entire village using Kiladako technology.
Out of instinct, and a century of experience living on various parts of Tarati alone, Raki-Tak manages to use everything around him to ensure his survival.
Backstory
Much like most tokis, Raki-Tak has no idea who his parents were. Despite being born into Rux-Aaroth, he did not consider them family for their questionable practices.
Before the war he became good friends with Maki-Tak, Cavi-Tak and Vaki-Tak which has continued to stay to this day.
Raki-Tak has always held a grudge toward Kiladako since he was released back onto the planet.
Ever since the betrayal of his friend who unknowingly abandoned him from the rest of his tribe, only to be mauled by a predator moments after, the Kiladako thought this particular specimen was an excellent subject.
The purpose of the experiment was to reattach his body parts and accelerate cell development giving life back to the demolished pile of blue flesh he once was before.
The slow ageing process was an interesting result the aliens did not expect to occur. Feeling accomplished by their success in their work, they were generous enough to cast him back to his homeland where he could once again live in peace.
Rux-Aaroth did not accept him as he was before the incident, forcing him to live in exile.
Raki-Tak began to lose his sanity, living in the stark icy wasteland as many years passed by, causing his unpredictable mood-swings.
His end goal is still considered a mystery, either waiting for his clan to forgive him for their mistakes, or to once again reunite with death as he did before.
Due to past experiences dealing with multiple events involving Kiladako, Raki-Tak has managed to utilize their technology for his own, doing mainly experiments on weapon development.
After nearly 50 cycles of making no contact, he returned to Rux-Aaroth for the sole-purpose of waging war for their misdeeds. It was an easy victory due to his accelerating cell growth and healing. This was all done alone, without the help of friends, making Raki-Tak a feared and unstoppable killing machine. The Rux-Aaroth tribe afterwards officially became extinct.
