Kingo

Kingo (Hindi: किंगो), is a cosmic-powered member of the community of genetically-engineered Eternals. Created by the Celestials in the World Forge, Kingo was sent to Earth in 5000 BC to progress the planet's societal development. Kingo was a warrior in the group who proved a useful asset in their fight against the Deviants. Over the years, he grew attached to humankind, and settled in India to become a famous Bollywood movie star, dancer and director.
In 2023, Kingo was approached by his old friends to get his help in stopping the Emergence. Kingo, alongside his valet Karun Patel joined the other Eternals on their mission to recruit the rest of the team, reuniting with Thena, Gilgamesh, Druig, Phastos and Makkari. When the team plotted to stop the Emergence and go against the wishes of the Celestials, Kingo grew doubtful of the plan, and following Ikaris' betrayal, Kingo left the group due to his conflicting beliefs. After the Emergence was stopped, Kingo was pulled into space alongside Phastos and Sersi by Arishem the Judge, so Earth could face judgement. 
==Biography ==
===Creation===
Kingo was built and programmed by Arishem the Judge, and presumably was sent to multiple planets to protect and help evolve sentient life forms from the Deviants, powering a Celestial seed inside the planet, which would absorb the energy made from the sentient lifeforms. Eventually, the Emergence would occur, destroying the planet in the process. Upon finishing their mission, the Eternals would be sent back to the World Forge to have their memories erased and reset.
===Protecting Humans===
====Arriving on Earth====
Kingo alongside the rest of the Eternals were sent to Earth on the Domo. Once awoken, the Eternals were provided with suits to wear before arriving at the planet. Kingo, being one of the Eternal's main fighters, landed on Earth first to fight the Deviants. Kingo was assisted by Makkari in defeating one of the creatures, and he complimented her on her fighting ability. When the Deviants attacking the humans were defeated, the Eternals presented themselves to the race they were assigned to protect.Eternals He claims Thor would follow him around when he was a child, but since he is now an Avenger he no longer returns Kingo's calls. However, this could be a boast due to his ego.

Once having settled into India, Kingo made a name for himself in the Bollywood film industry. To hide his immortality, he claimed throughout the years that he belonged to a single lineage of actors. He became a renowned actor, dancer and director, credited for multiple films including Khel, Youva Prem, Phantom Gun, the Shadow Warrior film series and Sarosh ke putra. In the 1970s, he met Karun Patel, who was shocked upon learning of his agelessness and attempted to stake Kingo through the heart, believing he was a vampire. The two eventually reconciled, with Patel becoming Kingo's loyal assistant and friend.

After the Emergence was stopped, Kingo was kidnapped by the prime celestial, Arishem the Judge, for sabotaging the emergence of Tiamut the Communicator. He was bought there with his friends, Sersi and Phastos, so Arishem would evaluate their memories for a final judgement of the humans.
==Personality==
Over the centuries, Kingo has become enamored with the idea of fame. In present day, he is a famous Bollywood star who must leave his life of wealth and comfort to help the Eternals repel the new Deviant threat. Kingo has used energy projection power to protect humans and grew to love how they adored him. Over the years Kingo became a performer using their Eternal stories as his inspiration.
Overall, Kingo is one of, if not the most boisterous and affable of the Eternals, having a good rapport with almost every one of them. The sole exception of them is Sprite. Kingo is dedicated to the mission of the Celestials, although he is not a zealot like Ikaris, as Kingo stated that although he disagreed with their plan to stop the Tiamut the Communicator's Emergence, he was not willing to harm them to do so and simply returned home to India instead of taking part in the fight.
Despite his positive qualities, Kingo can be slightly inconsiderate. This is evidenced in his tempestuous relationship with Sprite, having abandoned her in Macedonia due to getting tired of having to constantly find explanations for Sprite's stagnant youth. However, Kingo always had a soft spot for Sprite, with his love of movies and cinema stemming from him missing Sprite's vivid storytelling. Kingo's affection for Sprite led to him being the only Eternal, besides Sersi to see through her aloof exterior, realizing that Sprite was in love with Ikaris after noticing her jealously observing Ikaris and Sersi reconnecting.
