Core Concept
- Subekti is an unlucky and anxious Allar from Hadar, who has lost everything time and time again. The world was never kind to him, and it is likely that it never will be; but Subekti knows this, and works to carve a space out within it despite his many setbacks. With the imperial exploitation of his homeland and the turbulence of the last fifteen years in Regalia a vivid memory, he is deeply aware of the wrongs in the world, and yet, perseveres. Once turning to violence as a result of feeling cheated from life, he now instead looks for a way to find happiness and contentment in whatever form it may take. Subekti imagines himself happy.
- The faith of this little Allar has waxed, and waned over the years. Growing up under the faltering Essa Empire, he found himself lacking introduction to the traditional structures of religion beyond the Hadarian affinity more broadly for Felicula, and the long-dead Draconism. In his early years in Regalia, he found himself oppressed by hardline Unionist radicals, though after chance meeting with figures far more powerful than street radicals, he would fall into the arms of Unionism for a time. Following a stint in western Ithania however, his love for the faith of the emperor's fell to the wayside, replaced by a radical interpretation of Estelley, implanted into his mind by the beast that was once Aegipane and its' master, a great demon lord. Freed from its grip once more however, he now wanders in faith aimlessly, far more focused on the material world before him.
Visual Information
- Subekti is a Kyat Allar with scales a shade of light green. He has two horns on the back of his head which curl forward like a ram, and horned protrusions adorning each brow ridge, with gills situated flat against his neck nearby. With the general head shape of a hypsilophodon with other ornithopod elements mixed in, the Kyat appears mostly friendly, though worn past his years, round pupils and soft greenish-yellow eyes certainly helping this appearance. Subekti stands roughly at 5'4 (163 cm) tall, and dresses in relatively working class clothing. Whilst reading, he can also be seen wearing small glasses with gold leaf frames.

→2 Regeneration: Allar bodyparts regrow over the timespan of 24 hours when lost, though scars can be left behind if desired.

→4 Darkvision: Allar have perfect sight at night and in dark environments, capable of seeing in the dark without needing any external light source.
→5 Semi-aquatic: Allar can breathe underwater without any Abilities, and can also see perfectly underwater without it blurring their vision, allowing them to stay submerged indefinitely.Subekti does not have gills, and this Heritage Trait is forfeit.

Plot Hooks and Life Story
-
→Hadarian Native| Subekti was hatched in northern Hadar just prior to the Chrysant War. Though he was a hatchling when it began, painful memories are etched deep. Hadar was not a kind place to him afterwards either, and whilst he speaks little of the specifics of his days there, it is clear that his past is still fresh to him in the modern day. The world may have moved on, perhaps even Hadar has- but he has not. Can he?
→Between Faith| Subekti has never been by choice, a person of great faith. For the entirety of his life, his interactions with religion have been at the end of a spear and cannon, either having one pointed at him, or pointing it at another. In an effort to seek a life beyond pain and turbulence, is it possible he might find solace in religion again, or is his weary soul doomed to oblivion?
→Fifteen Years of Regalia| Subekti immigrated to Regalia as a stowaway in the year 300 A.C.. In those days, the city was a far different place, and a far less accepting space for the non-Ailor. Much has changed since those days, with foreign invaders and otherworldly entities having graced the capital more times than could be counted. Subekti has seen much of it, and has felt the consequences. Perhaps he is willing to spin a yarn or two.
→Experience Beyond His Means| Despite his unassuming appearance, the Allar named Subekti seems to have found his way into strange places over the years. Anyone looking into paperwork around him would see two separate court cases against his person involving 'weapons of mass destruction' and the 'State Medical Union', veteran of the Imperial Legion 'The Ironwake Host' during the Pressena Conflict and its' aftermath, a meeting with Emperor Cedromar, and a signed affiliation to the Qar-Digmaanship, now Triumvirate, of Regalian Hadar. Some records, too, seem to be missing. Why is he now a mere working man, rather than some advisor to Hadarian royalty? -
⇶TO BE ADJUSTED
⇶ Hatching:Subekti was the product of a hidden romance between two Kyat, one a Mageborn émigré named Mego, and the other a Kota-Allar alchemist named Melati, the former masquerading as a Paria. He was infused to be a Kyat like his parents despite the wishes of their Digmaan who desired aquatic hunters. Subekti spent his younger years on one of the northernmost Hadarian islands on the edge of a small fishing village. It was the bliss of a decent childhood.
⇶ Hatching (0-4): Subekti was hatched directly to his parents in the autumn of the Essa Empire, upon one of the northernmost islands by the name of Ossitang. His mother, a Draconist priest named Melati, and his father, a Kyat alchemist by the name of Mego. His memory is limited from this period, given just how young he was, but what he does remember is fond. Introductions to alchemy and infusion sessions with his father, and semi-frequent visits to a local, restored Draconist temple with his mother alongside a host of seemingly aristocratic, and open, Slizzar. Similarly, he spent a great deal of time with his two siblings, a far older Nang brother by the name of Hawis, and a younger Kyat sister who came along later, Ojasini. It is because of this, that Subekti learned to appreciate the crafts, and the gentle times alone with someone you adore. These times however, would come to an end as on a fateful summer day in June of 286, the hatchling spotted masts and purple flags on the horizon.
⇶ Antebellum and the Chrysant War:The Allar family eventually moved to the city of a local Digmaan in order to take up work, escaping Mego's known status as a Mageborn Pariah. Subekti and his siblings became enamored with the Essa Empire, parents producing alchemy for the garrison. The Chrysant War's beginning left nothing untouched, Subekti losing everything in a series of brutal attacks. Fleeing to the jungle, the young Kyat became a partisan, learning gunpowder via a stolen Regalian cannons, laying deadly ambushes with his crew. He was captured following the war, but do to his age and swearing that he wash but a medic-alchemist, he was spared execution and sentenced instead to labor under first the Regalians, and then the Regalian approved Digmaan.
⇶ The Chrysant War (4-9): His village was
⇶ Early Adult: Subekti was able to flee his imprisoned fate in 298 as a stowaway to Regalia. Here he met Saksono, an Allar whom he settled with, (oddly) having twin daughters together in the slums of the Bridge District. Four short years passed, until news came of the Songaskian Masaya's invasion of Rivel. The family fled to Ithania with the nobility. On the voyage home, Subekti's newfound family was lost in a storm to the sea, returning to find his home burnt during the occupation. Perseverant, Subekti devoted himself to alchemy and Chemtech.
⇶ Adult: Subekti was one of the first to support Digmaan Yaotl, though remained after it left. These years were eventful and turbulent, and much of what Subekti experienced remains enigmatic. Subekti grew close to the Kyat named Siralli, though they would ultimately decide to go their separate ways. Leaving Regalia in 307 with the coin he had acquired through diligent work, he headed to the edge of the world in western Ithania. Here, he took work on a vineyard.
⇶Return to Regalia: In late 309 he heard word of the Vampire Crisis, and elected to travel back to Regalia, farm life simply too isolated for the Kyat. He began a voyage south, however ran out of money in Hivre Monèrde. Working for another season on a vineyard, a chance skirmish with insurgent Dread Kathar cultists near his vineyard had him rewarded, using skills long neglected in the Chrysant War. With enough coin, he finally arrived in Regalia in late 310. Cursed for nearly all of 311 by the powers of Aegipane, he has recently been relieved of its most extreme effects, and as such, now struggles to simply 'live' once more.

Alone, traumatized, and scared, Subekti''s compassion comforted the rat, who formed a bond with the thralled Subekti, in their little rodent way. The mutant rat has wispy, radiant blue eyes not dissimilar from a Exist Silven. Subekti often brought the rat to prayer, though now usually lives in a terrarium that Subekti keeps safe in his apartment. The rat enjoys the smell of rubyflower, and of Elamona.
