Captain:Sarec

"Doubt can be the first step to damnation or redemption, depending on the circumstances"

- Himself

Sarec (Formerly Sarec Thulassos) is an inquisitor of the Cult of Drakon. He is a man who takes his work in his stride, believing that religion can be a force for good if the right practices are enforced. While it is normal for the empire's inquisitors to have an improved level of elemental control, it has been noted that Sarec is more in tune with the essence than other inquisitors. As a result of this gift he is a highly durable and energetic warrior and a cunning negotiator even for an inquisitor.

Currently Sarec belongs in the Zealot-Hunters - a branch of the inquisition that is responsible for keeping preachers and fanatics in check - and has been assaigned to patrol for any Divinarium activity.

Appearence and Personality
Sarec is quite young for his species. Much of his body language suggests a confidence common among inquisitors. His bodily scales are a very dark blue and he has braided his side-hairs while keeping the hair on the back of his head very short. His face is wide which tapers considerably at the snout.

In his work he is nothing more than a manipulator - working to achieve his goals with minimal bloodshed and maximum wide-reaching effect. His habit of sowing dissent amongst cults is based on his findamental belief that the only thing that stops a cult from destroying itself is a few choice words, therefore a few choice words are all that is needed to bring their work crashing down. because of an apparent enjoyment he is not above using 'choice words' on governers, officers and a variety of others. What stops him from simply doing what he wants is a moral code and a sense of restraint that all inquisitors follow.

He speaks with a soft tone in his voice and often hides his emotions, making him difficult to read. When angered he lets out a low growling sound while folding his arms. He always carries a dual set of HGf-34g fusion pistols, one on each side, that are decorated in brass on the nozzle. He is calm, patient and will always seek a diplomatic solution and has no quarrels with being deceptive when he believes the results offset the method. His armour (which he coneals under clothing) consists of reinforced ceramic plates, the centrepiece of his brestplate is a forward-facing dragon's head with its jaws wide open. He favours reds and golds for his look and enjoys looking presentable.

Abilities
Sarec enjoys using a pair of HF-34 fusion pistols for his attacks, opening up with a barrage as he closes in on his target, when in melee range he swaps the pistols for a sword. He is known for his brash fighting style and for the fact he will frequently find himself improvising in the heat of battle, using his talents in elemental energy to increase his endurance and agility. Even in battle he takes pleasure in toying with his opponent psychologically, but often this is to intentionally open his opponent to one of his attacks.

Sarec was inducted into using his powers for offensive purposes mid-way through the, particularly the manipulation of electromagentic energy. These abilities commonly appear in the form of lightning arcs, flashes, bolts and other forms along with an emerging ability to maipulate the neural signals of a target from close-range, effectively giving him a crude form of mind-conttrol.

Biography
Sarec was an orphan, abandoned on the streets of when he was three and spared from death when a pesserby took him to a local monastery. Seeing the child the clerics took him in and trained him as an inquisitor. Clerics found that he was able to more readily grasp concepts of meditation and mental focus than the other initiates wans was considered something of a prodigy. The planet the monastery was based had been hit hard during the Mecha-Wasp war and was still recovering when he was brought in. He would help out the clerics during downtime and was frequently commended for it.

After being granted the title of junior inquisitor at age 30 he had already heard stories of Inquisitor Arsac's exploits and she became something of a role model. Paired with an inquisitor 150 years his senior he spent his years committed to the 's destruction, as was Arsac's decree at the time.

At the age of 50 he and his senior encountered numerous ramblings relating to Angazhar. Believing them to be superstitions brought about by insanity the two of them agreed to burn every trace of these ramblings. Eventually they discovered that the diety mentioned was one of the most dreaded creatures in existence. This was brought to the attention of the High Inquisitor. Arsac commended their efforts by granting Sarec the rank of inquisitor and asked him to find out what he could.

Andromeda War
In the early years of the war sarec had grown suspicious of the relics being brought through the Pwilight Pass. Pulling a few favours within the Talon navy he chartered passage on a vessel assaigned to uncover a relic in the Caharden system. Encountering a Twilight Guard fleet under command of, his vessel was downed by a freak electrical storm.

Separated from the rest of the evacuees, Sarec was found by a patrol who, under the impression they could study him, took him to the remains of the flagship which was still occupied. Sarec managed to convince the admiral (who had mistaken his deception for an assassination attempt) that the relics were irrelevant compared to a greater danger. After recovering the artifact the defences were overwhelmed by an attack by the and this attack nearly cost him his life. What disturbed him more was that he experienced psycic contact with both of the legion's commander and his subordinate. After escaping the planet he became one of the few, if only, Draconis to see personally and after returning to imperial space spent the next week in meditation trying to recover from the ordeal. Pleased with his efforts Arsac assagined him to the Segmentum Crepusculum in order to find out more about the and to make sure there was no religious risk from the Divinarium.

After a failed attempt to kill Br'Klakkon his life was saved by a servant of the Isio'Nar. After ordering the remaining Legion Loron to be killed he would spend many weeks studying tomes and observations to find out more about his saviour, discovering that many species across galactic history had encountered such beings. it would evolve into an obsession his mind became hungry and curious to know more. His studies within the Divinarium garnered the attention of the mali'nar who desired ot assassinate him. Although he had some ability to handle Mali'Nar that had threatened his life, agents of the returned to save his life once again, claiming that he had the potential as one of them. They left sarec with more questions than answers and he continued to study them over the course of the war.
