___________________________________________________________
Creature/Race:
Contaminant Elustran.
Elustrans are large, strong humanoid people with very bright hair and eye colors, that age noticeably slower than humans. They pride themselves on their strength and size, as they are a very power-driven, barbaric race. However, their technological progress has exceeded many other civilizations, giving them access to technology and tools that many would consider "futuristic." This combination of barbaric nature and advanced technologies has led to them being a powerful, feared race in the dimension of Ahlen Nal, making it so their capture of mining bases and other planets is often uncontested.

Dimension: Ahlen Nal || Planet: Elustra
Average Day Temperature: 76 Degrees Fahrenheit | 24.4 Degrees Celsius
Average Night Temperature: 48 Degrees Fahrenheit | 8.9 Degrees Celsius
Average Days to a Year: 291
Elustra is a barbaric but highly advanced society, on a planet with thick gases constantly permeating the air the inhabitants breathe. In contrast to what usually happens, although their technology blossomed quickly throughout the ages, they have remained by their more barbaric roots, following practices such as execution over the simplest of crimes and living in groups similar to tribes, constantly fighting over each other and surrounding planets. They do not have much of a concept of gender difference-- while they acknowledge that only women are capable of giving birth, both males and females have similar builds, allowing them to equally work the same jobs and do the same tasks. One's true worth was only decided by their strength.

Personality: Æternus is odd in that he keeps people at arm's length but wishes to keep them no further away than that. He actually really dislikes being alone for too long, but it's nigh impossible to have anyone come close to him (safely) due to his condition. Due to such, he usually spends time in somewhat crowded places but not actually near anyone, just in case. Æternus is a sort of hopeless romantic, but he just dismisses it as feeling loneliness. He generally is a sort of sucker for women, but not from him wanting to do what he can to "get them," but more so the fact that he lets his guard down around them, usually. Of course, Æternus doesn't outright avoid men either-- he's quite friendly to others when he can be, and enjoys spending time with or around anyone. When it comes to actually being "friends," with them, however, he's a bit more careful. His race was not above being deceitful or using trickery to get what they wanted, and he had to make sure he was not on the wrong end of such tricks.

History:
TL : DR-- Æternus was a slave taken over by another tribe on Elustra, incredibly intelligent but not allowed to break tradition. As he came of age, he was allowed to join the higher ups, and made it, proving himself and becoming a doctor. He tried to aid his former friends that were still slaves, but was caught and tortured by injecting several thousand chemicals into his body, with a device keeping him alive. He was paraded around and use as a weapon until he managed to take down his captors and escape. When the rest of the tribe leaders caught up to him, he was extremely close to being captured, but upon a miracle, the train appeared, leading him to safety.
War was not uncommon on the planet of Elustra. Driven by their desire for bloodshed, Elustrans constantly warred with each other, conquering each other's territories and forcing the conquered to work their lands and jobs while also forcing the women to bear their children, breeding even more warriors for the future. Æternus's conception was not a rare occurrence-- a woman of his ancestral tribe was taken upon their destruction and forced to be bound to one of the men of the invading tribe. As a child, he was exceedingly intelligent, especially for an Elustran-- what would normally take three of the workers, he would find a way to do it easily with only one. Instead of praising him however, his owners scolded and beat him for trying to change the way things were done, destroying any contraptions or ideas he came up with to simplify the work.
This continued through most of his early growth years (what we would call childhood and young adulthood), until he was finally old enough to be able to stand up for himself. Once of a certain age, all Elustran slaves are allowed to fight for their freedom-- or rather, a chance to be something more than a working slave. When it came time for Æternus to fight, he dominated his opponent easily, his intelligence combined with his race's natural strength allowed him to quickly outwit and overpower his enemy. This impressed his owners, and they invited him to join them, as part of the higher society of the tribe.
Once Æternus joined with his previous owners, he proved his intelligence to his peers, showing many ways that he could aid the tribe. Instead of just providing better ways to do the things, as that turned out so poorly before, he demonstrated medicinal practices he had learned-- making medicines and solutions to aid those who were injured or ill, allowing those who were to return to good health. This delighted the leaders of the tribe, as it would ensure continuing good health for them, as well as quickly recovering them from battles with other tribes. What they did not know though, was that Æternus was also sneaking these cures to the slaves he previously worked with. He could not stand to see them so pained without any way to recover, or any rest.
This continued for a long time, however, one of the owners eventually noticed the general change in mood of the slaves. They seemed happier, which was incredibly odd compared to their usual behavior. Upon this realization, the man quickly began violently executing slaves as a demonstration, killing more and more until one of them told him exactly what had changed their moral so suddenly. Eventually, a small child told him, and he thanked him, before beheading him as the rest before. Returning to the leaders, the man informed them of what he had learned, and they immediately tracked down and jailed Æternus for his secret workings.
They would have executed Æternus the following morning, but with a quick thought, he managed to convince them that he could still be more useful to them, prolonging his life. What he had volunteered for, he would soon regret, however. Taking him to a secret underground lab outside of the main city of the tribe, Æternus was chained to a table, and hooked up to several machines, filled with what seemed to be concentrated gases. The scientists explained to him that the reason the slave owners and tribe leaders were never as often sick as the slaves was because they had been constantly developing technology to siphon the harmful gases from the air of the main city, and feed them into the bodies of those who were not instantly executed. However, this injection of gases would often quickly kill the vessels, so the scientists would contain them in a special unit and burn the bodies, before depositing the remaining contaminants outside of their lands.
This practice had continued for a long time, and recently they had developed further technology to allow them to keep the vessels alive, something that would allow the vessel to continuously house more toxins, while decreasing the amount of vessels they would go through. Dismissing any pleas for further explanation, the scientists hooked the device into Æternus-- or rather, stabbed it in him. After the initial excruciating burst of pain (for which they gave nothing to dull it), the scientists turned on the device, feeding extreme amounts of toxins into Æternus. Quickly, his body became poisoned, quickly draining him. When it seemed like he would die as every other subject, there was a silent moment. All that could be heard was the heart monitor. It was still beating. The scientists cheered and praised themselves, and continued to feed even more toxins into Æternus, constantly pushing further and further to see how far they could go.
This continued for months upon months, Æternus constantly getting weaker, thinner, sicker as time passed, yet his body refused to perish as long as that device was hooked into him. The leaders of the clan paraded him around, showing the slaves and other clans they conquered what happened to those who defy them. They even went to the point of removing his filter that was designed to keep the scientists safe, around other tribes, using him as a weapon of war to bring a painful, prolonged death to their enemies. Æternus helplessly watched as his decision of survival brought pain and fear to so many others. They had turned him into a monster. He could not stand by and let them continue this anymore.
As the Tribe Leaders brought him before yet another tribe's doorstep, Æternus silently made a plan. Just before gaining access to the city, he swiftly turned around and grabbed one of the tribe leader's blades, slicing open his arm and whipping his spilled blood towards them. The blood splattered all over them, quickly attaching to their skin and corroding it, nearly melting it even. The two Tribe leaders there screamed in pain, as they violently, painfully died as the acidic blood took its toll on their outsides, while it seeped into their wounds, destroying them from the inside, all the while Æternus did his best to close the wound before it took an effect on him as well. The gate guards watched in horror as the scene unfolded, and Æternus quickly made his escape as soon as his wound was stabilized.
In the following weeks, Æternus snuck around neighboring tribes, taking what technology he was able to to modify his lifeline. He continued to work on it, making it more portable while at the same time increasing its efficiency, and wiring it to other places on his body if he would need to fight again in the future. Eventually, however, the tribe he was originally with caught up to him, cornering him in the forests of Elustra. In a panic, Æternus dove into a small tunnel in the rock wall behind him. Quickly making his way to the other side, he climbed out, looking for an escape. Although the others would not be able to fit through the tunnel, he knew that it would only be minutes before they made their way around. For the first time ever, he felt hopeless, unable to come up with any plan for escape. Then, out of nowhere, a horn sounded, and a large vehicle came barreling down, stopping in front of Æternus. The door opened, inviting, it seemed. It wasn't exactly a normal occurrence to have things like this happen, but Æternus knew he didn't have much time to make a choice. So without a second thought, he ran up to the vehicle, boarding it, as the door closed behind him, and it set off.

Skills and Weaknesses:
Racial Skill:
- Æternus is fast and tall, but does not retain the strength of his race due to his contamination.
Unique Abilities:
+ Æternus is entirely immune to most poisons.
+ Æternus can breathe a poison cloud or mist by taking off the filter on his mask.
+ Æternus has needles injected in his arm through a glove that draws his blood out and applies it to the claws of his glove.
+ Æternus can rearrange the poison that is his blood in various compositions, allowing him to create poisons of varying effects for both beneficial effects and negative effects, although creating beneficial poisons is much more difficult.
Weaknesses:
- Æternus can only pass/spread poison through the mouth, his claws, or an open wound.
- Æternus cannot make any very fast acting fatal poisons. Any fatal ones take at least an hour to take effect.
- Beneficial poisons can not be applied through his claws or direct blood source, as it would be too far mixed in with the rest of his blood. It has to be expelled through the mouth, either in a mist over an area or some other form.
- The poison is far stronger when concentrated, and not in a mist. As such, if Æternus does expel it through the mouth, it'll take far longer to take effect unless somehow breathed directly into another person's body.
Social Skills:
- Æternus is very intelligent, and practiced in medical procedures. He's happy to help in situations that require such talents.
- Æternus constantly struggles to decide whether he should keep distance from others or go and speak to them, due to his condition constantly proving a risk should something go wrong with his device, or if he bleeds.

Likes, Dislikes, Etc.
Likes:
+Spending time around others.

Extra Information:
- Æternus's outfit is skintight, as his pores need to be covered up to prevent release of toxins. His face is the only exception, as his regulator is located on his head, the filtering affect goes throughout his head.

Script:
Æternus: *Walks up to the door, lightly tapping the panel as the door slides open in response.* Man, this train's actually pretty empty today... everyone must be out doing their own business, I suppose. *Æternus peers around the room, coughing momentarily.* Where is it we stopped most recently again..? Perhaps I should check the schedule back in the main cabin...
Lit:
Æternus stepped down off the train, casting his gaze upon the city before him. He had visited this area a few other times along with other riders, but this time he had come himself for something he needed. Walking down the streets, the thick air clouding the sky, Æternus moved his vision back and forth between stands on either side of him, quickly scanning the contents of each.
"No... no... where in the world could I find something like that..?" Æternus pondered to himself.
In truth, Æternus was attempting to find a certain piece to upgrade his Regulator, so that it would be able to filter out even more of the poisons before they left his body, allowing him to remove his mask for longer than a few seconds. Unfortunately, this specific item was quite difficult to locate...
