Vaki-tak is an enigma to all who know him. Strangely apathetic to everything but the most concerning of issues, he wanders from place to place seemingly disappearing and reappearing at will, carrying an immensely heavy burden he had accidentally received in his past.
Personality
Vaki-Tak can be best described by the look of almost impossible boredom upon his face. Those who know him can tell of his astounding apathy, in even the most serious of occasions. Despite this flaw he can display rather surprising acts of kindness towards others, especially the native animals of Tarati, often taking those who are weak and abandoned under his wing. Vaki-Tak has even shown, though only to his most trusted friends, a rather spontaneous and fabulous side, performing incredible acrobatic feats, as well as posing at inappropriate moments. While not being particularly aggressive, he has shown a type of psychotic violence towards those he sees as a serious threat to himself, or those he cares about, using only his fists to pummel the threat into submission. He has even been said to throw hundreds of jelly filled doughnuts at enemies, though this is often dismissed as nothing more than an ill-informed rumor.
Relationships
Due to the regular hatching process of tokis, Vaki-Tak does not know who is parents or siblings are. Despite his usual distant and apathetic personality, Vaki-Tak has managed to befriend and keep in contact with several other members of the toki species, a few being Raki-Tak and Maki-Tak. He has, on more than one occasion, been seen in the presence of an unknown all-white toki, who was later discovered to be the insane cultist Velastre Astre-Vel.
Backstory
Not much is known about Vaki-Tak's life before the Kiladako arrived on Tarati. Some suspect that he was an amateur scientist experimenting on the many different types of fauna and flora that reside on the planet. Others guess due to his expertise in pugilism that he was a fighter in one of the underground arenas. Whatever is guessed about Vaki-Tak's past, it is almost certain that it will continue to remain a mystery.
The Accident
"Of all of the organic lifeforms we have seen, this one is particularly odd, especially for the toki species. It seems as if its genetic structure has somehow been warped beyond repair and now possesses abilities beyond even our understanding. We will have to keep an eye on this one." -Anonymous Kiladako scientist.
Cycles after the arrival of the Kiladako, Vaki-Tak had gotten too curious with abandoned technology left behind by the foreign invaders. A rather dangerous and careless experiment had drastically altered reality within his physical body as well as severely distorting his own genetic code to a point beyond repair. The result of this experiment was a plethora of unique side effects, including a drastically extended lifespanm enhanced strength and endurance, and the ability to phase in and out of reality at will, along with many others, most of which are still unknown. The most recent being a small pocket dimension located on his palm which Vaki-Tak can store nonliving objects inside. However, such immense power came at a price. Upon gaining his newfound abilities, Vaki-Tak was also robbed of nearly all of his emotions. Not long after his metamorphosis, incomplete and often hostile doppelgangers of himself had started popping up seemingly everywhere he had previously been. The most detrimental however, was gaining the attention of certain malicious cosmic beings. One of which who is only known as "The Moon" had tasked their disciple Astre-Vel to study and eventually "collect" Vaki-Tak, though for what reason is still unknown.
