    Zhyv Drutagati

    Occupation: Craftsman (of weapons and machines)
    Gender + Race: Male Satyr (Goat person)
    Sexuality: Bi.
    Full Age: About 400 years old
    Power Level: B

    Backstory: Zhyv is the best craftsman of his time, and he'll be willing to tell anyone who listens to him that same very fact. Descended from a long line of renowned craftsmen, Zhyv was frequently under pressure to be as good as or even better than his parents. He was doing very well on that front, until one day he made a terrible thing that put his countrymen in danger.

    While awaiting punishment, Zhyv, fearing the consequences to be dire, ran away from his homeland with naught but some stolen tools he could use to build things. On the run from his family, he ended up in a ship filled with shady craftsmen from various lands, who were being held prisoner. What saved him was the longstanding treaty the owners had with the satyrs, and he was returned home safely, much to his chagrin.

    Zhyv could never forget about the people he met on the ship, however, and the little he could learn on his short time there from the shady craftsmen left him with a hunger for more knowledge. But all that had to take a backseat to the judgement he awaited, now that he was back at home.

    Before any rash decisions could be made, a rather reclusive craftsman surprised everyone by taking him under his wing. He sensed something in the boy that made him want to train the lad.

    When training started, he didn't get disappointed. Zhyv was always willing to try new things, something that seemed to please the old craftsman. Under him, his creativity was not stifled, but allowed to run free in a controlled environment.

    Centuries passed, and soon he was a craftsman in his own right. Together, the old man and he plied their trade until Zhyv began to get a bit of wanderlust. They had travelled for a bit, and the goatman had developed a wish to see the world. He told the old man of this, and got supported wholeheartedly. To help him, he was given a parting gift, an old dagger that was said to have mystic powers.

    Seeing as the dagger was a gift from the old man, Zhyv kept it close at his side always. Little did he know (until later) that he was the latest wielder of the Spacewarper, a sword that allowed him to make portals through space and time! It didn't allow him to go very far backward, but he had to learn to control the 'forward' part.

    Fast-forward years later, and the Nexus joins one of the many realms Zhyv Gilehxquac has visited.

    Personality: A friendly, jolly romantic man with seemingly simple tastes but an eye for knowledge and possibilities. Is a craftsman who's better with a pair of tools than a weapon. Trickster tendencies. Loves wine.

    Abilities:
    • Confusion Inducement
    • Good at making steampunkish constructs. Builder of things.
    • His music can cause weak-minded people to stop what they're doing and start dancing.
    • Fast runner

    The Spacewarper dagger bound to him gives him the following abilities:
    • The ability to portal from place to place. Requires cooldown time.
    • Faster reaction time and perceptiveness to the flow of time. Passive.
    • The ability to freeze time for a short period of time. Requires cooldown between uses
    • The ability to travel between planes. Requires cooldown of one day.
    • The ability to summon the dagger.


    Weakness: He's not a fighter.

    Equipment: His craftsman tools, a lute, a wineskin and his magic dagger, the Spacewarper, so named for its ability to create portals via space-time manipulation.

    Description: A man with long spiral horns of a goat on his head. He has mighty red-furred goat legs, a bag strapped to his bare back and his weapon at his belt. Square pupils, but his eyes and his horns are the only goat-like things on the human upper-half of his body.
