Revision as of 18:07, 4 December 2012

Vureos Kalhalum (Now Corteus) is one of a few drallivians to serve in the imperial marine corps. After being severely injured during the Andromeda War, Vureos was chosen as a prime candidate for the Wraith Unit; A top-secret supersoldier programme using candidates listed as "killed in action" by the imerpial government prior to initiation.

Characteristics

Appearence

Vureos looks like a large and muscular Drallivian and his body is littered with patches of synthetic muscle. Both his arms have been replaced with synthetic replacements sheathed in synthetic muscle fibres. His eyes and thighs ahve also been replaced with synthetic analogues

Equipment and Abilities

Corteus was modified extensively in part due to the severe mutilation he suffered as a byproduct his injuries, when he does not push himself he is capable of exerting 20x the strength of a normal Drallivian but it is possible that he is capable of bursts of strength of up to 100x what is normally possible. The elastic and durable nature of the muscles allows him to leap and bound for a considerable amount of time and can jump up to 10x higher than normal.

Other augmentations include enhanced multispecral vision, imrpoved dexterity, immunity to airborne poisions or toxic elements in the atmosphere. The Morphis nanites in his bloodstream allow him to achieve what other morphis hosts are capable of (such as tissue morphing, heightened senses, enhanced regeneration and a strengthened immune system). His implants are very extensive and are designed to mimic the properties of his central nervous system, making him highly resistant to an electromagnetic pulse. While buffers in his CNS improve his resistance to being adversely affected by direct electrical attacks, he is not immune.

Personality

Both before and after his operation, Corteus was a reserved man. He kept to himself and would rarely speak to others of his unit if it was not critical. Depite this lack of communication the soldiers under his command respected him for his tactical ability and he considered that he did waht he was doing for the good of the Imperium.

He became more cynical and reckless after his operation. Although he does nto consider himself superior in all aspects, he still feels that he is, in soem ways, better and stronger. Even though he admits hiself that he is something that one may find difficult to feel for or approach, he is convinced by Vidius's words that Morphis (and to a lesser extent people like himself) is the "next step" in the Imperium's evoloution.

History

Vureos Kalhalum grew up on the Drallivian colony of Acahas III and at the age of 37 signed up to the Imperial Auxillaries four years after the Republics agreed to join the Imperium. His skill on the battlefield made him a consideration for the Imperial marine corps when he was 43 and in the decade since served the imperium with distinguishment. His career was cut-short early in the Andromeda War's darkest hour when the Mali'Zane interrupted an invasion on the IAF planet of Vashkya. He was picked up by the horns by a giant Mali'Zane acting as the leader and was thrown some distance away. He was saved from death by a medical team who managed to recover his body for an as-of-then uncertain purpose.

While he lay in hospital, professor Vidius Senvinus (The progenitor of the Morphis project) secretyl arranged fro hi mto be fitted with the finest cybernetics available, offering ot use House Senvinus's personal funds to pay for any imported technlogy. Vureos was augmented behind closed doors, his survival was kept secret from the rest of the universe and he adopted the moniker of "Corteus" to fit his erasure from normal society.

The newly-dubbed Corteus accepted an invitation to train and adapt to his new lot in life under the Morphis project. he grew accustomed to his new implants and eventually he became comfortable with them.
