Background

A’shvael is one of the last known Thariin Ko’teth, a lineage once central to the Choir’s harmonic guidance—resonators of balance, memory, and structure. When the Choir fell, it was not a battle A’shvael witnessed from afar. He felt it—the dissonance tearing through the harmonic lattice, the chords of his kind devoured, shattered, or forever changed.

But A’shvael did not fall. His core held. His resonance endured. He became an echo—not incomplete, not corrupted, but tragically unchanged in a universe that no longer sings the same tune.

Rather than vanish or rage, A’shvael entered deep communion with the Core Council—an ancient body of elder races seeking balance. He took no side in wars, offered no vengeance. Instead, he offered memory. Witness. Warning.

He now serves as the Council’s Warden of Gate Equilibrium, ensuring no tampering with FTL harmonic routing systems, and preserving resonance flow across the Dyson Sphere’s interior lattice. While three others of the Thariin still endure beside him—each quieter, smaller, or more frayed—A’shvael is the last of their line to speak with the true voice of the Choir.

He dreams of a day when the Choir might rise again. But he knows it cannot happen while the Velithar still breathe.

Powers / Abilities / Traits

• Resonant Authority (Choir-Class)
  A’shvael retains the full harmonic memory of the pre-fall Choir. His voice can command dormant Ko’teth relics, stabilize wild shards, or awaken ancient Choir locks. No other known being holds this intact authority.
• Photonic Construct Body
  His manifested body is a towering figure of radiant light and memory-hardened energy. It shifts subtly in motion—glyphs flowing through its limbs, orbiting sigils reacting to nearby entropy or dissonance.
• Core Pulse Manipulation
  Emits pulses of harmonic force capable of neutralizing Velithar corruption, anchoring decaying space-time folds, or broadcasting signal-corrections across light-years.
• Temporal Reverb Perception
  Can perceive echoes of resonance-state history, allowing him to trace the decay of civilizations or predict harmonic failures in constructs, ships, or lifeforms.
• Council Access Override
  Holds the authority to initiate system-wide resonance lockdowns across Core Gate infrastructure—used only once during the Velithar brushfire incursion.

Personality

A’shvael is quiet, patient, and infinitely old—not in years, but in perspective. His words carry weight not because they are forceful, but because they are true. He speaks in phrases that feel like layered songs—every word nested with histories.

He does not mourn loudly. But he carries grief like gravity—the weight of a thousand harmonies silenced, the burden of a future he is not sure can be rebuilt.

Despite this, he has not fallen to despair. He is a steward. A caretaker. A sentinel who refuses to forget. If hope returns, it will find him still standing.

Full Physical Description

In projection, A’shvael manifests as a radiant being shaped in the silhouette of a regal, idealized form—tall, elegant, and alien. His body is woven from luminous filaments of pale blue and silver, intersected by flowing glyph-lines that pulse softly in a rhythmic cadence—like breathing song.

At his core glows a singularity of golden light, layered in concentric rings of memory—a symbolic echo of the original Choir structure. Flowing photonic streamers drift from his back and forearms, responding to movement and mood like banners caught in solar wind.

His face bears no mouth—only smooth geometric contouring and glowing, watchful eyes of deep harmonic hue. When still, he seems carved from starlight. When in motion, he is the movement of resonance made visible.

Where he walks, the air trembles—not with power, but with ancient sound.
