Aalik Kimir Entik

Aalik is an akkaon formerly from the kimir caste but fallen to dakaar caste due to being framed for the massacre of 21 iikhoš.

Appearance
Aalik has pale blue skin with silver rectangular freckles and tousled white hair. She has 5 golden eyes evenly spread across her face. Her antennae are light yellow. While she was in hiding with Setel, she wore a headband across her forehead to cover her upper 3 eyes to minimize suspicion.

Her lower half is replaced by two sleek robotic legs, with an augmented external spine extending to the small of her back. Her arms, from the shoulders, are also artificial. The right arm and left arm appear the same, but the right is able to expand into a blaster.

Personality
Aalik always believes that she is in the right. She is so stubborn in her morals that it sometimes seems she believes she is incapable of doing any wrong. Her obstinate attitude, while considered problematic by many others, was tolerated and even expected of her by other ackaoni due to her status.

She seems to act like a rich and entitled brat, but actually has a tough, ruthless streak. Any of her whining is just a show for lowering the guards of anyone that she is suspicious of.

Aalik is very manipulative and cruel. She covets positions of power where she is able to pull whatever strings she chooses to without being apprehended.

Her lighter side is sociable, confident, and protective. Anyone who manages to break through her thick shell has won an immensely tough and loyal ally that is willing to follow them to the ends of the galaxy. Her morals, which are often oddly skewed due to the twisted society she was raised in, are surprisingly kind. She believes that, while some lifeforms are lesser than others, every creature has a soul of their own and does not desire to cause unnecessary harm to innocents. Of course, it is difficult to tell when someone has truly broken through to her heart, as she often lies about even that.

Aketi
Aalik was born into the kimir caste on Aketi. She was raised to be an inventor from a young age, and readily given whatever supplies she needed for completing her current whim.

As she aged, she was expected to participate in the kimir tradition of creating her own enhanced cybernetic limbs. Her mothers partnered her with a kidnapped aakhoš by the name of Setel. She was initially kind to him, however, her mothers detested how soft Aalik was. They drugged Setel with muscle relaxant and removed all of his limbs in front of Aalik, then tormented him further anytime Aalik acted too softly towards him.

She finished the installation of his new prosthetics, and was looking for a place to rehome him, but she was suddenly framed for the murder of 21 iikhoš, tried, found guilty, and banished to spending the rest of her life as a dakaar. Setel was thrown on the streets without her around.

A few weeks after being banished, she encountered Setel again and struck a deal with him for escaping the planet. She told him that she could build a ship to get them off of Aketi if he piloted it. They also picked up Rhevai, another akkaon. They then escaped to Gedraycarro, a neighboring trading planet, where they met Eašah and came up with a plan to escape further.
