Name: Siphon/Talvesh
Powers: Has the strength of 6 men hence an incredible melee fighter, can cast a small protective energy shield around himself that will protect from hi kinetic energy magic attacks or projectile attacks, but not from melee attacks, and he can create a small shockwave from his hands that will knockdown any enemies within it's range, but he cannot fire it off in rapid succession, it requires a 20 second cool down period. Also great knowledge of various inter-dimensional technologies of his people. Siphon has also gained the rare trait amongst his people of being able to use his hands to heal most any wound inflicted upon a person. He has other abilities open to him, but for the time being he is unaware of them.
Healing Gene: Siphon is capable of using his healing gene to heal even the most severe of injuries, although this can be quite taxing upon him, and requires his full concentration. Depending on the severity of the injury, it can take anywhere from 30 seconds to ten minutes to restore and heal the injury, or injuries. He is not able to bring a person back to life if they have already perished from their injuries however. So for example, a minor injury such as a cut would be healed rather fast, but something like a punctured lung or a broken bone would take quite a long time for him to heal in this manner, and he would still need to set the bone first.
Age: Appears to be in his early 30's, but is actually SIGNIFICANTLY older.
Physical Description: 5'7" Weight 180 lbs Brown hair, Blue eyes normally, Caucasian appearance.
Description of traits and BG: Siphon was thought to be one of the last survivors of an ancient race of beings known as the Alverans, but as it turns out, he is actually Alteran, the parent race of the Ancients, and Ori. Siphon came to this dimension some time ago from his 'own' home, ahead of an army of undead that followed his people here. Choosing to stay behind and fight along side the humans of this world, they defeated the undead, and Siphon has grown quite fond of the people he chose to protect. He chose to remain on this world, and live amongst them, and he saw a great potential in them to become a super powerful race some day, a dream that is now being realized.
When using his shielding or his shockwave attack, his eyes will begin to glow a fiery red, and he will utter several words in his native tongue. His normal voice sounds as any normal humans would.
Talvesh is a symbiote that is attached to his spine, and allows him to utilize several other technologies because of it's unique properties. Talvesh can assume control of the body, and this is shown when his eyes gleam fiery red for longer than a second and when speaking, his voice is noticably deeper with a flang to it. Side Note: By High Kinetic Energy I mean something such as a magic propelled attack or a bullet. The shield will not stop an arrow from getting through however.
Siphon's first ship, The Kara, was named after his dead 1st wife, who was killed in battle during the original undead siege on his 'home world'. The ship was very much akin to the Daedalus class cruisers in Stargate, and at 586 Meters in Length, are quite decently sized. In fact, all other Alveran ships are exactly the same, although Siphon's had a few new modifications he himself has made that are not seen on any other Alveran ship. Unfortunately, the Kara was destroyed near the end of the war with Anubis. For a time, he was stuck with using Talok's ship, which is named after Siphon's second dead wife, Daina Eil'Mori.
A year ago though, Siphon unveiled a new design of ship, his own design, and far more powerful than his old one.
Ship Information: Siphon created a new class of ship, known as the Nasara Class, named after an old friend of his from his days as an Atlantean. While he hasn't said much of the woman the ship is named after, the ship itself is quite impressive.
The Nasara is a large, heavily armed ship built for the sole purpose of fighting battles, while still maintaining it's ability to conduct peaceful exploration. Clocking in at just over 1,100 Meters in length, she's slightly less than twice the size of his previous ship. The Nasara comes standard with much of the technology found on his previous ship, with a few additions. Technical Specs are as follows:
Dimensions: ~1,100 Meters in Length, 400 Meters in Width, with 20 decks.
Shielding: Siphon's latest shielding is more advanced than the previous shields were before, roughly three times more effective.
Propulsion: Along with its sublight engines, the Nasara comes standard with two distinctly DIFFERENT types of Faster than Light Propulsion. First, is the Interstellar Drive, designed for fast travel between places in the same galaxy, allowing for precise coordination. Second is the more powerful, advanced Inter-Galactic hyper drive technology. Siphon managed to find a way of tripling the old drive outputs, allowing for a ship utilizing this new drive to travel 3 Million light years per hour.
Weaponry: All Alveran ships come standard with blue plasma beam weaponry, capable of overloading most known forms of shielding, or piercing them, varying on the level of shield. Unlike most laser type weapons, they don't overpower by using a lot of energy, but rather use little energy, focusing more on firing rapidly to overload shield emitters, thus frying them out and collapsing them.
Another weapon found on all Alveran ships are the special drone weapons. These yellow squid like projectiles are extremely powerful, and usually will rip through most shields in a matter of seconds, focusing primarily on simply passing through the shield, and ripping apart the hull of the target ship. They are more powerful than the beam weapons, but Siphon prefers not to use them unless he has to, as replacing them on the fly is time consuming.
The final weapon aboard Siphon's ship is unique to his alone. During his time spent in the future, he worked on several upgrades, one of these being the gravity wave weapon. Against an unshielded planet or ship, it is a devastating weapon. This weapon fires a high end gravity well at a target, usually flattening an unshielded ship. Siphon scaled the weapon down to be more effective, abandoning the previous grand design for something more practical, and that wouldn't blow out all his power relays every time it got used. Even still, it requires a few minutes cool down.
Power Generation: Siphon's ship is different from most Alveran ships in the power supply department. While most of their fleet are powered by single Zero Point Modules, Siphon's ship is powered by three of them for it's Inter-Stellar Hyperdrive, Weapons, and basic functions. The more advanced Inter-Galactic Hyperdrive, Cloaking Device and shields are powered by a new power source proto-type, a micro-contained black hole.
Cloaking Device: Based off the same type used in Puddle Jumpers, the cloaking device renders the ship invisible, and undetectable.
Unlike most ships of other races, Alveran ships are capable of being commanded by a single man crew, largely in thanks to the chair interface in place aboard each ship. They have taken great pains to prevent their advanced technology from falling into the wrong hands, going so far as to specifically key their most destructive and advanced technology to only
respond to those with their genetic makeup. This, they feel, is the only way to truly prevent an enemy from stealing their ships if they are unable to self destruct them in time before being boarded. While they can be crewed by one man crews, currently only the Nasara and the Daina Eil'Mori do so. All other Alveran ships usually carry a crew compliment of six hundred, although they can carry as many as twelve hundred.
Special note: If for whatever reason, there is a specific issue where someone is going to be injured and does NOT want to be successfully healed, let me know in advance, and I can work with that. I have several ideas on how to "fail" Siphon's healing ability, and if I know in advance I can work with that.
