Name:Kalthea Druadach’Vok

Nicknames:Kal

Gender:Male

Age:???(29 in human years at time of death)

Species:Kurosian Dragon Ghost(Shire)

Nationality:Kurosian

Element:Ice

Voice Actor:Val Kilmer

Attacks/Actions:

Winter’s Wrath:Breaths a stream of ice that causes frostbite within a matter of seconds for most creatures.

Bulwark of the North:Summons a shield of ice around him that, like Winter’s Wrath,will cause frostbite on contact.

Appearance:Kalthea is a typical Shire male with silver horns that resemble those of a bull, which match the markings on either side of his shoulders that bear the likeness of said animal’s skull. He has deep blue eyes that are the same color of the upright mane that runs from the top of his head to just below his shoulders.

History:

Kalthea was born to a Shire father, who served as a soldier in the Kurosian army, and a Brokt mother, who worked as a blacksmith. Both his parents were intensely dedicated to their professions, wanting nother more than to better their people’s lives. Each saw the patriotism burning in the other’s hearts, leading them to consider the possibilty of providing an offspring in order to combine their strengths so that their beloved city might be further empowered. So it was that Druadach Bruca’Vok and Illinalta Rannveig’Vel entered the tournmanets to see if they were capable of being mates. Neither could best the other in combat, earning them the right to breed. Kalthea’s egg was laid not long after Feuriah arrived in Kurosia.

Kalthea was unsure at first what to choose as a career. He considered being a soldier, but they often travelled far away from home and he preferred to remain in Kurosia. Becoming a blacksmith also did not seem right to him, as much as he admired his mother for it. Then one day, as he observed the guards patrolling the streets, something in his mind clicked. They protected Kurosia just as much as the soldiers, but stayed within its walls for the most part. Soon after he set off on the path to enter their ranks. It was not easy, as one would expect, the young dragon being pushed to his utmost limit in mind, body, and soul. His love for Kurosia and its people fuelled his every step, though, and despite the harsh training he succeeded.

Like his parents before him, Kalthea was devoted to serving the inhabitants of Kurosia, admiring Feuriah most of all. That was to say he did not repsect Kurogh, but the older male made him uneasy whenever Kalthea saw him. This feeling only increased when Malefor arrived and the King treated him as a god. Something about the purple dragon didn’t seem right, although Kalthea didn’t quite know why. The young guard knew very well to keep his mouth shut, trying to ignore the dread that filled his heart. When Malefor betrayed them Kalthea was horrified to see the home he loved so much being destroyed. He threw himself into the fray, using all his might to defend his people, but was ultimately defeated.

He to see Kurosia charred and smoking, the corpses of his fellow dragons almost barely recognizable after they had been mangled by Malefor’s army. Kalthea was confused that he was still alive, until he glanced down at himself and nearly screamed. He could clearly see his skeleton, which meant that he had indeed passed away. Kalthea wished for the sight to go away, causing his form to shimmer until he resembled his living form again. He stood there for a moment before picking his way through the remnants of the city, hoping to perhaps find another ghost like himself, or perhaps even a survivor. Kalthea did indeed find another spirit, but rage and hate emanated from it. The being began to attack him, and Kalthea fled to the castle, the only place that might still be safe.

Years passed as he roamed its ancient halls, fortunate to rarely encounter another malevolent ghost. He often wondered why he had not ended up like the others. Sometimes he thought perhaps the gods had intervened, but that was unlikely. They did not help the Kurosians when Malefor attacked. Kalthea doubted they would ignore such a situation yet aid him. Still, now and then he would pray to them, hoping that in their slumber they would hear his pleas and answer him. He had began to lose hope when he saw someone he had given up ever seeing again.

At first Kalthea thought the dragon before him was either a ghost or an illusion.When he saw a short, bald human communicating with her he relized she was very much alive. He wanted to run to her and tell her how thrilled he was to see her again. Then Kalthea remembered she might not even be able to hear him. Besides, even if she did, the ghost was not sure how his Queen would react. It was an all to real possibilty that she might be highly upset at seeing one of her fallen subjects. He learned from the conversations between her and the human that a group called the Skylanders had failed to help the Kurosians. This caused him to develop a deep dislike for them, remembering all to well what had happened to his city because of their neglect.

Kalthea continues to watch Feuriah, as well as her family, from a distance, trying to assist them in any way he can without revelaing that he is there. He desperately hopes they will be able to defeat the Skylanders and restore Kurosia to its former glory. Until then, he lurks among the shadows, happy to have a purpose once more.

I’ve been looking at @weirdhyenas Skylander blog @weirdlanders and have become quite intersted in the Kuros. I admit, not once have I ever played Skylanders and the only Spyro games I focused on were the orginal game and “Ripto’s Rage”. Still, I couldn’t help but make a Kuros of my own. The names of his parents are taken from the “Elder Scrolls” universe, while his is drawn from Superman.I used Feuriah’s profile as a guide, athough in no way did I intend to copy anything. Please forgive me, Ms.Weird, if I got something wrong. 🙂

OOC : Lawdy, this babi is well thought out! So sad, but detailed! ;u; I absolutely love him hon, amazing work thinking this babi thru! *latches onto Kal’s face*

What are your thoughts on the new Creation Crystals gimmick ? Will you try and create the Lost Queen or Havok in game ?

OOC : I think it’s a really cool gimmick, but right now with the videos I’ve seen, I’m honestly not TOO excited about it. Something about the faces weird me out, as if they just don’t feel like they belong in a Skylanders game (could just be me on that one, I only did see a few but GAWD that lizard/dragon one is frightening). And I’m pretty sad that the character can only be bipedal, so no custom feral dragons ;n; 

I highly doubt there’ll be enough customization for me to make any of my OCs in the game, so most likely I’m just going to whip up whatever I want with what they give us ;u; I’m still really excited for the game as a whole, BUT YEE just my thoughts for now!

OOC : This is just sad :T don’t steal art folks. So strange, I’ve had more run-ins with art thieves on Instagram than I have anywhere else

Wait, who is Havok’s new wife? Is it not Stormee anymore?

OOC : I think I’ll reveal that in due time, kind of work it up more than I did with the other ship ;u; 

Tho I wouldn’t really say it isn’t Stormee anymore tho; that ship is still a solid thing that I lurb. HOWEVER, I am moving that ship and a lot of things that were once canon in that verse over to a separate AU that is just between @a7xsparx and I! Things like Havok and Stormee being the main ship, Viril not being in the family (which makes Havok more of a less open-minded prick, at least until he starts seeing Stormee seriously), Chill was the Skylander who cut off Havok’s tail (and also he lost it when he was around 15-16), Havok tricking and kidnapping Spyro’s daughter Circuit ( @a7xsparx‘s fanbabi!) which causes her to have a crazy grudge against him, Havok having a rivalry with Frostbite (another OC of hers) but secretly thinking he’s cool cuz he’s half shark, and TONS more. 

Not to mention, the entire Devine Havok plot-line is based on this AU. THAT whole plot-line is crazy and would make a really good comic on it’s own, hell A7Xsparx and I role-played it for like a month straight it was that intensive xD

But as things naturally do interests changed and she and I didn’t collaborate as much as more and more games came out that effected the plot-line, new plotline ideas, etc. I still hold the HavokXStormee pairing close to heart, so I just moved it all from blog canon to an AU ^u^

Originally, with this pairing Havok had a crush on a girl from his childhood, but her rejection of him made him more bitter towards opening up and accept when he actually feels something for a gal. So when Stormee came along, another girl he could never find himself wanting to bully or harm since he was a kid, he’s more fearful of loving her and blaablaa sappy romance stuff because Havok’s a big ol’ lovesick puppy man ❤

But in blog canon, it’s the first gal. The girl is deathly afraid of him as he IS a villain, and one that’s caused a lot of death and destruction gleefully. Havok’s had a fondness of her ever since he was a kid and could never bring himself to harm her, and it hurts him when he sees her afraid of him. BUT he keeps this very, VERY secret, only Viril knows about it. Big sappy man-man xD

Good luck getting him to talk about it tho, this has been canon for a while now actually but he just won’t show it, or he plays up how much he goes around with other gals xD

so what’s your thoughts on Dark Wolfgang?

OOC : I actually like the fact that the Golden Queen and Wolfgang are Skylanders, since I wasn’t doing much with either of them plotwise after Trap Team. Well except with Havok, which he forever holds a grudge toward Wolfgang for cutting off his tail and the Golden Queen for making him suffer weeks of agony just to try and have him killed to spite his father. Havok didn’t need any other reason to want to maim them, but now that they’re Skylanders HOBOI xD

BUT more specifically, Dark Wolfgang. He looked the same way pretty much in his ‘evolved’ skin in Trap Team, so before I had no story for it, but for Imaginators, I’m not sure yet! It’ll most likely have something to do with Havok I’m sure. As for the toy, meeeeeh it DOES look neat but I think this time I won’t be getting the dark pack. I’d rather get his toy regular, and same with the Golden Queen ;u;

Wait so Havok is bigger and Taller than even Eon. If he was born a full blooded kuros, would he have been a brokt?

OOC : He’s an Allus Kuros, at least he was originally made to be Allus. But the main reason why he’s so tall and generally a big guy is because a dragon, at least Kuros, grow bigger with age. Being a hybrid, his dragon genes are going along with his human age, so instead of growing a little over hundreds of years, Havok’s getting bigger per decade. Once he goes past his 40/50′s he does slow down, but by then he’s almost a giant of a beast xD Feel bad for his new canon wife, feel very very bad. Or good, whichever xD

BUT Havok has developed more since his original design, and when I pictured him as a dragon I didn’t picture a small dragon, but rather a Brokt like one. So I may just switch his Kurosian breed to Brokt as it is more fitting now. There’s just one thing that will be inconsistent, just because it’s something I don’t want to change xD
