Q'lia

Lord Q'lia (b. 3 January, 1958) was a female Cosmius-sensitive Sathron who became a No'med of the Apex Brotherhood in 1974. She fought for the Ghost Empire during the First and Second Ghost Wars. Q'lia was styled with black Sathron tattoos covering her body including her head. As a No'med apprentice, she was trained by a wise No'med Lord named Lord Ithium, whom she later killed on Asolas Danatheon's command with a swift decapitating strike of her sword, shortly after ascending to the rank of a full fledged No'med Lord in the Ghost Empire.
Recognising her suspected unshakable loyalty, Lord Ithium anointed Q'lia as his No'med apprentice when she was just fifteen years old. She found herself working alongside her No'med ally Paiz Ireda during the early times of the First Ghost War. Q'lia was often tasked with her master's most important missions, including the capture of the Zêirí Michael Thompson, and her training in the ways of the Shadows. Q'lia always remained loyal to her master Lord Ithium. Her master commanded her to kill her own father in order to finish her final test to become a No'med Lord.
== Biography ==
=== Training ===
The female Sathron whom was a No'med apprentice, raised and trained in the No'med Academy in Eznius. Q'lia's inherent abilities as a Cosmius-sensitive were honed in order to transform her into a No'med apprentice. Her ultimate loyalty, belonged without question to her King, Asolas Danatheon, Shadow King of Suezeus and Supreme Leader of the Ghost Empire. 
On the verge of her training's completion, Q'lia was greatly immersed within the Shadows. Her final test of loyalty was to slay her own father in cold blood. Obedient to the will of Lord Ithium without question, the apprentice did not hesitate when she killed her own father. With her final rite of passage fulfilled, Q'lia was elevated to the rank of No'med Lord, thus making her one of the King's most trusted Ghosts.
=== The Pursuit ===
Lord Q'lia's first mission as a No'med Lord was to locate and capture Alpha I Guardian Bernard Henderson in order to lure out Commander Michael Thompson. Q'lia travelled to the planet Renn Khy where she discovered Bernard Henderson, who had been hiding after a battle. Although the Guardian eluded Q'lia, his bodyguards was defeated in combat by the No'med Sathron. She kept one bodyguard alive and planned to interrogate him.
After amputating his arm during the duel, Q'lia then tortured him with the Shadows. Q'lia discovered that Michael Thompson escaped with the Alpha I pilot Jack Monroe and captain Sam Mitchell. With no further use for the Lux Bodyguard, Q'lia killed him and continued her pursuit of Michael. 
=== Imprisonment ===
During the Battle of Suezeus, she was defeated in battle by Will Wilkins and placed in the Kilamengard prison for imprisonment on the planet Ginias Hain.
== Personality and traits ==
Like most No'med, Lord Q'lian was cold and dispassionate, and followed the commands of Lord Ithium and Asolas Danatheon without question or hesitation, as shown when she decapitated her own father at her master's request. She was unmerciful like most No'med, keeping one of Bernard Henderson's bodyguards alive only for the amount of time needed to extract the location of Michael Thompson from the grievously wounded bodyguard. Devoted to the Apex Brotherhood, she held little regard for her own life, as she told Will Wilkins during their duel that she would welcome death as long as she did her duty. She also had Sathron tattoos that were common in the Ghost Empire. Despite her power and high rank in the Ghost Empire, she was clearly never meant to rule, she was a fanatic like most No'med and did not have the capacity to lead as Lord Ithium, nor his independent thought, as such, she became one of the No'med who served Ithium's command to sabotage the Lux Republic.
== Powers and abilities ==
Q'lia's ability in combat was considerable. Her skill at fighting was further exemplified by the fact that she was anointed as one of King Asolas' No'med Lords, as aforementioned. On Unomia, Q'lia was able to outfight two Zêirí simultaneously, showing her aptitude at combat. 
She was known to use acrobatic flips and leaps in combat. As she had often, if not always, fought one-handed. Her talents at fighting, as well as her rank of No'med, put her at a status greater than the majority of the No'med.
Q'lia was also skilled in Shadow techniques, especially the rare Cosmius power known as Shadow paralysis, by which she used to execute dozens of Lux Republic members. She also appeared to be a very skilled pilot, knowing how to operate many starships and other vehicles.
