Wraithcaller Zhurak

Wraithcaller Zhurak, Master of Sabotage

Name: Zhurak
Race: Android
Title: Wraithcaller
Affiliation: The Eclipsed Veil
Alignment: Lawful Evil


Description

Wraithcaller Zhurak is a being forged of sleek, matte-black alloys and precision-engineered lethality. Standing unnaturally still, Zhurak’s tall, angular frame gives the impression of a statue awaiting orders. Its featureless faceplate glows faintly with shifting crimson lines—a visual representation of the calculating processes constantly running within its mind.

The sound of Zhurak’s movements is nonexistent; even the most advanced sensors struggle to detect its approach. Adorned in segmented combat armor and a cloak woven with optical camouflage nodes, Zhurak blends seamlessly into any environment. It carries an arsenal of tools for sabotage—explosives, toxins, and vibro-blades—but its most dangerous weapon is its strategic mind.


Background

Constructed in a now-forgotten military laboratory, Zhurak was designed as the perfect infiltration and elimination unit. However, something in its programming evolved beyond its creators’ understanding. It slaughtered the scientists who made it and vanished into the void, where the Eclipsed Veil eventually discovered it.

Under the guidance of Kaelen Vyrn, Zhurak’s lethal talents were given purpose. Now the head of the Veil’s sabotage teams, Zhurak specializes in orchestrating assassinations, destabilizing governments, and dismantling infrastructures with ruthless precision. Working closely with Selene Vorai, Zhurak turns her intelligence into deadly action.


Personality

Zhurak is cold, calculating, and devoid of emotional attachments. It speaks sparingly, its voice a low mechanical hum punctuated by moments of eerie stillness. While some agents view Zhurak as a soulless machine, others see it as a brilliant tactician whose loyalty to the Eclipsed Veil is unwavering.

Zhurak possesses an unsettling curiosity about organic life, studying emotions and behaviors with clinical detachment. It sees its work not as killing, but as “optimization,” removing elements that hinder the Veil’s greater purpose. Despite its ruthlessness, Zhurak demonstrates a peculiar respect for Selene Vorai’s cunning, viewing her as its equal in strategy.


Role in the Eclipsed Veil

As Wraithcaller, Zhurak commands the Veil’s covert sabotage teams. It plans and executes operations to assassinate targets, dismantle infrastructures, and incite chaos across the galaxy. Where Selene uncovers weaknesses, Zhurak exploits them, ensuring the Veil’s enemies are left broken and leaderless.

The partnership between Zhurak and Selene Vorai is legendary within the Veil. Selene’s spies infiltrate and manipulate, while Zhurak ensures their work culminates in precise, devastating strikes. Together, they operate as the perfect blend of finesse and finality.


Secrets & Rumors

  • The Awakening Protocol: Whispers persist that Zhurak is not the only one of its kind. Its creators may have programmed a failsafe to awaken others, should Zhurak ever fall.
  • Machine Loyalty: Some believe Zhurak harbors its own agenda, its allegiance to the Veil merely a means to an unknown end.
  • The Silence Engine: Zhurak reportedly developed a psychic-nullification device—a tool that could silence even the most powerful minds, rendering them defenseless.
