Eksu Skyrunner
Eksu Skyrunner is a Half-Elven Empathic Sorcerer and the Communications Officer of the Kairos crew.
Eksu Skyrunner was born in 979 AB to Nilya Skyrunner and Kane Skyrunner. Eksu's ancestor, the ancient Jacques Thadrimr was overjoyed at the union of his family with House Skyrunner, whose progenitor Kane Skyrunner was Jacques' best friend. Jacques named the boy Heir to the Hierarchy upon his birth, igniting the ire of many other clan members who deemed themselves a more fitting choice than the gibbering sideshow they considered the baby to be.
Eksu proved worthy of the title, truly incredible, walking and talking in Elven and Thonic by age 1.
Jacques, Nilya, and Sul protected the boy from 980 AB to 993 AB, when he was first killed by a Wood Elf assassin sent by Zar Thadrimr, Lord Protector of Boreal. Eksu. The assassination triggered a short but bloody war as rhe Borean military was dispatched alongside an Atlantean force led by Sul to take the city of Boreal and depose Zar. Zar was slain by Sul and Nilya, and Silya Thadrimr was installed as the new ruler of Boreal.
After this incident, it was decided that Sul should retire to his family home, Skyrunner Manor in Atlantis to keep Eksu safe until he was old enough to take over the Thadrimr Clan. By 994 AB, Sul's retirement had been processed and Nilya had been appointed as the Borean ambassador to Atlantis. Sul spent his days mentoring Eksu in both magic and statecraft, maintaining Skyrunner Manor and managing House Skyrunner's business interests. Eksu was an industrious and gregarious teen, and befriended Normin Alviss and Allen 17W in 995 AB. As Eksu neared adulthood, Nilya pushed him to engage in more diplomatic activities, allowing Eksu to accompany her and eventually take her place at low stakes meetings, such as balls and ceremonies celebrating Atlantis' many partnerships and alliances. By 999 AB, Eksu had developed Empathic Sourcery, combining the Thadrimr Clan's Blood Sourcery with Sul's clerical magic, allowing Eksu to forge empathic bonds with his friends as opposed to utilizing the blood ties that Blood Sourcery stems from. During the War of the Flood, Eksu was crushed to death in a tunnel collapse during the bombardment of Atlantis. Jacques bargained with Thoth, procuring a resonating crystal attuned to all nine worlds in exchange for placing a resurrected Eksu among the crew of the Kairos.
