Likes
Cats – Del is puzzled by these apparently primitive and unremarkable creatures. On the one hand they are what they appear to be; a small predatory creature, on the other; they seem to possess personalities uncanny for their evolutionary station.
A short time after arriving on Earth a stray cat made his presence known to Del and insisted on sitting with her, even though she granted him no food. Security intended to remove the cat but Del decided to keep him, curious as to why the creature found her curious.
Earth – As Del's first real visit to a terrestrial body Del is more impressed with Earth she should be. Del knows she will see many more remarkable planets in the future, but already, she knows her memory of Earth will remain a stirring influence on her judgment. She will not be able to dismiss this planet like most of the Ky`R.
Meat – The Ky`R have no need to consume meat, the concept is as alien to them as Ky`R sustenance would be to humans. And yet, Del is fascinated by it: eating meat is much more challenging then Ky`R sustenance and even other human foods. The preparation, the presentation, the chewing and the flavor… Del has come to enjoy this food and has adapted herself to consume it.
She is a bit surprised by the human surprise that what they would consider "a vegan" species would consider meat pleasing. Del does not understand why humans consider this trait barbaric, from the human perspective: meat is a logical means of sustaining their biological functions… and a tasty one too.
Competition – competition is a means both for entertainment and for self-improvement. Del takes pride in her victories as testimonies of her ability and learns lessons in her defeats. Competition is a central aspect in Ky`R education and leisure, Del is glad humans express reduced but similar traits in that regard.
Dislikes
Sitting – humans seem to be obsessed with the need to sit down and assume other species are as tired as they are. At work, at study, at play, at food, at rest and during travel.Del does not feel tired, she does not see any reason to sit down but humans take this as an insulting gesture… so Del sits down.
Night – on Ky`R ships there is no concept of night time, Ky`R sleep when they require it – based on the needs of their working schedules. Del does not like having her routine dictated to by the planet's orbital whims and by humanities curious choice to slumber when their planet's temperature is most agreeable. Cats are much more sensible in this regard.
Laws – Del is disgusted by the human and other alien concepts of law. Many laws seem to assume their abiding public to be untrustworthy. Laws are made to be followed – not under the assumption they will be broken.
Fears
Losing things - The Abre, due to the confines of their space platforms do not have much use for personal objects. They therefor practice a policy of mutual sharing. Del is not used to having so many personal possessions and is afraid of losing these. Among the Ky`R loss of objects is deemed a failure in responsibility, a serious failure.
Human transportation devices - Del does not understand how humans place so much trust in their transportation when it is one of the greatest causes for mortality among their people. To Ky`R standards the statistical chances of sustaining damage on human transports are greater than a level 5 engagement , Del prefers to walk.
Being discovered as a machine life form – The Ky`R are a secretive people who do not see fit to discuss their nature among other races. As one of the first Ky`R to travel to an alien world and spend so much time on that world the secret is always at risk of being discovered.
Del fears being considered a mere machine rather than a sentient being and has therefor taken greater steps in integrating even more organic processes into her body then the already substantial average.
Skills
Martial arts – The Ky`R have kept their ancient martial arts, developed during the time they were still an organic race on their original home world. These arts have religious, artistic, cultural… even intimate implications as well as their original fighting potential and every Ky`R is trained in them – Members of the Abrekor are trained in the advanced arts while V`k's in particular are trained in the secret rituals and moves of these arts and are expected to become masters of the arts.
The martial art – known as Ryakan (meaning the martial art…), possess sub proficiencies in unarmed as well as bladed fighting. At its core Ryakan is a means of communication, modern Ky`R language was created out of the Ryakan since the language places value on movement as well as speech to deliver words meaning (very useful in space).
Computers – to Del human computers are so primitive she still has trouble adapting herself to access them. Once she has however, there is little Del can't do inside these systems apart from going beyond their abilities. Del can "talk" directly to computers, a trait her people have retained since they first created their artificial bodies and does not require a physical connection to do so.
Del is actually considered talented with computers among her people and explains this trait to others as the result of Ky`R implants, but the truth is that the Ky`R's artificial brain has many times more processing power then all the computing power of the Earth… the only way to maintain such a complex A.I.
Space ships – Del was born, has lived and will probably die on a space ship, she understandably known quite a lot about their construction, function and maintenance.
The Abre traits: The Abre have great physical endurance. They can run for day's should they want to and can perform physical feats beyond organic ability. They do not require air, or much nourishment and think in great processing speeds. These, among other traits require however a great amount of energy, energy which is provided through the ships they live on.
While away, especially on such a primitive planet Del cannot function at 100%, she functions in something more akin to 40% and while slightly faster, more enduring and reacting them most organic beings much of the advantage lost.
Del does breath, and consumes more nourishment, much like the Earth cast of her people to avoid using her artificial energy and thereby possibly risk being discovered as a machine.Del gathers what she can from natural energy projected on the planet from its star or other sources and stores energy during the night while she sleeps through her artificial capability.
Among her unimpaired capabilities, such as her computer skills Del retains her sharp reflexes, her aim and dexterity. She also posses an advanced memory but because she is discontented form a ship's data banks it is limited to her own recollections.
Flaws
Languages – Del finds languages challenging, to her much is lost in the spoken word without a physical gesture and she therefor finds it difficult to express herself using any human language. Del often uses movements while conveying words which normally go unseen by the human eye but when seen appear to be very strange. Likewise, human gestures such as a hand shake are often offensive to Del to whom a hand shake is similar to a very… personal… gesture among the Ky`R.
Headaches – the vast number of radio waves on Earth cause Del many headaches since these interfere with her processing functions. Del has been able to block out most of the background noise but can't stand having a radio on close by. Cellular phones also irritate her but she tolerates them, often walking away whenever some uses one.
A patronizing attitude to humans – Del seems to treat even adult humans as children sometimes, Del's seemingly greater respect and interest to some Earth animals adds sault to that scratch.
Self centered? – Del is used to dealing with her issues on her own and sometimes expects others to do the same.

Personality
Del is Independent, confident, intelligent, obedient to the will of her parents and dedicated to the greater being of the Ky`R race. She is exactly as she is expected to be, but, under the V`k mask she is also a bit more.
Del is independent, she has had to rely on herself for much of her life but she cherishes friendships whenever these are possible… and appropriate. She is confident, confident in her capacity to be Ky`R but, not as confident to be herself. It is therefore convenient to fall back on the V`k mask of tradition but, on a world such as Earth where these things are immaterial Del has no retreat, she must also live for herself and not only the Ky`R.
Because of this, traits in Del's personality suppressed for years, only let out on brief occasion's surface… hesitantly at first but finally with conviction. Del enjoys her presence on a terrestrial body such as Earth – the first extended visit to any planet she has made, even though to her cast the terrestrial is a limitation and therefor, undesirable.
Interacting with Ives Ky`r (not of our people – aliens) and experiencing such a complicated, random environment is so different from the orderly and pre planned habitat in space she is used to. Del finds the experience enriching, and often trades her composure for an energetic eagerness to explore the difference.
To the humans, Del practices a certain amount of distance and seriousness. Even with the unknown freedom of Earth Del is Ky`r, her mission is to improve the humans concept of self. For all of Earth's wonders – Del knows it’s a common enough world with a sentient species, as of yet unremarkable.
Del does not believe the humans can specifically teach her anything beyond sharing the experience of their planet, which to Del is a special experience but universally it is not. Though she knows the reason for the experiment is the interaction between species she considers her mission to improve these humans as individuals to their society as the really important task.
Del is more relaxed towards her alien counterparts and, for the most part considers them equals. Though she is suspicious of them, more so then the admittedly primitive humans Del does not see a motive for trickery on their part. It is the humans who once said to keep ones friends close and ones enemies even closer , Del therefor sees no difference be them friends or enemies in relation to how she will interact with them.
Biography
Del was born in space as member of what humans could term the nobility of her race. Her father is a law giver: a member of the elite cast which rules the Ky`R. Del's mother used to be a Warlord, commanding many of the Ky`R offensive capabilities but has recently focused on establishing an official diplomatic capacity to the Ky`R race.
Del, as a V`k – law giver by birth has not enjoyed any of the fittings humans expect of nobility. Instead, her life is a constant test by her family and cast – preparing her to continue her ancestors legacy.
Del did not grow up with other V`k and faced the problem of having to prove her worth among the people she was one day expected to lead. Since the V`k of the Abre are separated between fleets Del has felt isolated most of her life, and is therefor independent in her nature though fond of friendships whenever these are appropriate. Even her siblings though close are "light years away" since only the first born may inherit the V`k mantel.
Both her parents have been strict with her upbringing – hardly ever shielding her from responsibility and expecting her to face the challenges alone as she would in the future. Her father however believes in the value of "leisure" and peace of mind and has often relaxed this distance, taking Del to witness council meetings and travel with him on his tasks – including private hiking trips ether alone with his daughter or with the rest of her siblings.
Like her mother, Del was taken for service in the Abrekor – or as other aliens call it the "Armada", the force which deals with the military needs of the Ky`R and literally translates into "expanding horizon". Del was recently initiated in the organization, though she is yet to participate in battle she has underwent rigorous drilling. Upon her return to her people she is expected to assume the role of second on a small but esteemed infiltrator class battle platform .
Now, year before she is married by her parents to a suitable spouse and thereby begin her adult life of service to the Ky`R –Del's mother decided to send her daughter to Earth to experience the aliens of the galaxy.
Species information (note: Ky'R is generally spoken as Kaiyaur among human)
The Ky'R are a synthetic race of humanoid machines – the survivors of the defeat of their race in war which saw the destruction of their original biological bodies.
For centuries, the Ky`R fleet traveled the galaxy, reaching the other side of the galaxy 400 years ago– far away from the Ky`R's vengeful enemies. Eventually they teraformed and settled a number of planets, there by beginning the slow process of rebuilding their species – a process which still continues to this day.
The Ky'R are not simple machines as they once were, their bodies have been recreated to mirror the organic bodies they had lost. Though the original plan was to recreate their old biological bodies the Ky`R have abandoned these plans In favor of enhancing their synthetic bodies. The Ky`R now reproduce in very much the same manner any organic would and require or at least mimic the same needs such as eating, breathing and sleeping.
Outwardly, few would think the Ky`R machines and even fewer know they actually are machines.
Socially the Ky`R are separated into casts. Del belongs to the original Ky`R who could not make planet fall at the time because of their space adapted bodies. Though they are no longer limited to space the cast system has entrenched itself in Ky`R society. Aliens, unless visiting the Ky`R planets only meet the Abre – space faring cast since they are charged with all space related tasks.
To other aliens the Ky`R where known as an aggressive race for most of their history as they expanded well beyond their initial colonies and claimed already inhabited systems. The Ky`R are known for their technology but to Ky'R knowledge no alien race is aware of that they are themselves pecies of technology, a secret the Ky`R aim to keep.
Recently, following a single unremarkable defeat, the Ky`R have stopped their advances and even retreated in a number of negotiated concessions. The Ky`R are still feared by many races but most aliens prefer the Ky`R as a people they can negotiate with rather than the previous arrangement.
Only the Ky`R know the reason for this sudden change, and they have not seen fit to discuss it.
