Akhazane

Akhazane's human form

**Akhazane** was an Ibyon soldier who followed his brother Akhator to Earth thousands of years ago for the purpose of studying the planet and its creatures. Unlike his cold-hearted brother, he developed a fondness for Earth's myriad species. This eventually led him to go against his brother in the Ragnarok war.

Most of his body was destroyed by Akhator, and only his right hand, which also contained his brain cells, remained. This hand and the Star Seed that it held was kept under guard in Africa by the Sacred Guardians. Akhazane’s consciousness awoke after the release of Star Seed kept by the Tengu emitted powerful signals.

He then summoned those who had come into contact with the Star Seeds to test them. He wanted to find a suitable host to transfer his remaining cells to as only the Ibyon can control the Star Seeds. In the end, he chose Alex.

## Biography

Akhazane was the vanguard captain of the IBYon’s third assault squadron. According to the ancient Greek poet Homer, Akhazane reeked of blood – he hated the stench of a soldier who had taken too many lives. Akhazane came to Earth with Akhator to discover Earth’s secrets via experiments and intel gathering. Akhator was already immune to the sun’s UV rays from his previous visit to Earth. After spending some time on Earth, Akhazane became immune as well.

He was sent on a mission by Akhator to gather information from humans and other sentient races. He disguised himself as a human and pretended to be a scholar in order to blend in, obtain information, and collect samples of blood, hair, and skin.

During his travels, he made friends with many different peoples and races and fell in love with the planet Earth. So when Akhator told him he was going to destroy all of Earth’s intelligent lifeforms, he was horrified.

Witnessing his friends fall one by one during the war caused Akhazane to be filled with sorrow and regret, for though he was used to killing enemies, he never had to kill his friends before. Determined to protect the Earthlings, Akhazane picked up a Star Seed and told Akhator to stop the attack. But Akhator called him a traitor and blasted him with power from the Star Seeds, destroying most of his body.

Luckily, Akhazane was able to transfer some of his brain cells into his surviving right hand to preserve his mind. After defeating Akhator, Akhazane’s friends kept his hand and the Star Seed it held but burnt the rest of Akhazane’s remains.

Before his "death" at the hands of Akhator, some of Akhazane’s blood was collected by a reclusive couple and made into an elixir of immortality. It damaged the genes of the man who drank it, and while it gave him and his offspring immense strength, it robbed them of their emotions. This was called the Sky Demon's Curse. The Ferocious Four are descendants of this couple.
