Krat the Brutal isn’t anyone’s actual name. It’s the identity that Grelb Rivercrest has taken in the city of Arbil, but knowing that true names have power Grelb never plans to let anyone else know what his true name is.

Krat was raised in a tribe of goblins who almost killed him once they realized that he was actually a Blue. He never knew his father or mother and doesn’t know which of them might have infiltrated the tribe and then left him there with only a well-worn kukri as a memento of them, but this doesn’t bother him much. Being exiled be a tribe of goblins means that one doesn’t need to stay with a tribe of goblins which suits Krat just fine.

After leaving his tribe with nothing but the blade his unknown parent had left for him, Krat wandered the lands of the Ophid Protectorate for a while before winding up in Abril. The city suits Krat just fine and he’s decided that he’s going to make himself a power there before too long. Always in disguise he has made the connections with the local thieve’s guild he needs to; they take a cut of his treasure from any haul and he follows their rules for who is and isn’t a valid target, but that doesn’t bother him. He’s using them to make the connections he’ll need for the future. His psionic ability has served him well in a place where psionic powers equate to authority, and he is focused on developing those as well as his connections and knowledge before establishing a base of power in the city.

Being especially driven, Krat has sworn off anything that might distract him from his goals: fine food; wine; close companionship; the comfort of another's arms. All distractions and potential dangers that could lead to someone discovering his true identity, all useful to entice others with instead. Krat isn’t especially cruel when left to his own devices, but he’ll do whatever he thinks best to achieve a given goal.

When moving around town Krat will usually be disguised as some other persona, often a kobold or other small race, depending on what he needs to accomplish. He’s almost never seen as a goblinoid, and when he is he wears a kobold mask designed to look as intimidating as possible. Krat would have no compunction at all eliminating anyone who he believed to know his true identity. He intends that his moniker, the brutal, will be known and respected by those who dwell in Abril’s underworld and will go to great lengths to further that end.

Krat will work alongside a group as long as their goals align, but is unlikely to make close friends and it will take extended contact to make him believe that anyone else would actually value him or his needs above their own. He doesn’t find this at all unfortunate, it’s just what expects from the world.

Krat is a sneaky skill monkey who will do reasonable damage as a striker once a few abilities kick in by level 6 or so. He can handle traps and scouting as well as some face activities (in disguise.)

--------------------
Brutal Disruptor, Distorter Cryptic Traits
--------------------
Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Cryptics are proficient with all simple, plus the rapier and shortbow. Cryptics are proficient with light armor but not with shields. Armor does not interfere with the cryptic’s class features.

Pattern Designs (Su): Unlike normal manifesters, a cryptic manipulates the world around her by creating tattoos and patterns that alters reality in different ways. Cryptic powers show up on the cryptic’s body in the form of tattoos. The cryptic’s known powers can be identified via Spellcraft checks with a DC equal to 10 + double the power’s level. These tattoos do not count against the number of psionic tattoos that the cryptic can safely wear.

When a cryptic manifests one of her powers, it creates a visual pattern of energy during the action taken to manifest the pattern. While the cryptic’s powers have the normal displays for psionic powers – auditory, mental, and the like – this visual pattern unique to the cryptic cannot be suppressed as normal displays can be suppressed.

Altered Defense: A cryptic learns early on to modify the patterns around her to grant her protection as a swift action. The cryptic chooses from the options below and may only have one such effect active at any given time. The cryptic can use this ability for a number of rounds per day equal to 4 + her Intelligence modifier. The cryptic can maintain this ability as long as she wants as long as she has rounds available, or dismiss it at any time as a free action.

Absorb: The cryptic gains DR 1/-.

Deflect:[i] The cryptic gains a +1 dodge bonus to his AC.

[i]Retaliate: The cryptic gains a +1 bonus on his attack rolls against any opponent that successfully hit him since his last turn.

Every four cryptic levels thereafter, this bonus increases by 1 (to 2 at 5th level, 3 at 9th level, 4 at 13th level, and 5 at 17th level).

Disrupt Pattern (Su) All cryptics are able to disrupt the patterns they can perceive, although the potency of this disruption is based on the cryptic’s focus. When a cryptic gains psionic focus, she selects one creature type as her active type (she does not need to select a subtype). As a standard action, the cryptic can make a ranged touch attack with a range of 30 feet, firing a ray of black energy at the target. If the attack is successful, the cryptic deals 1d6 points of damage + additional damage equal to the cryptic’s Intelligence modifier. This attack deals half damage if the target’s type is not of the cryptic’s active type. Like some other rays, if the attack roll of this ability would indicate a critical hit, the damage is doubled. This ability can only be used once per round, even if an item or other effect would duplicate it.

Lesser Insights: Cryptics learn minor powers they can use at will to aid them in a variety of ways. The cryptic gains 2 talents from the cryptic talent list.

Intimidating Pattern: A brutal disruptor adds 1/2 her level (minimum 1) on Intimidate checks made to demoralize a target.

This ability replaces trapfinding.

Unnerving Disruption: Any time the brutal disruptor deals damage with her disrupt pattern ability, she can expend her psionic focus to make a free Intimidate check against the affected opponent.

This ability replaces trapmaker.

Altered Appearance (Su): A distorter has learned to alter her pattern to mask her appearance. As long as the distorter is maintaining psionic focus, as a full-round action, the distorter can change her physical appearance to look like someone else, granting a +10 bonus on Disguise skill checks. The distorter’s size does not change, and she does not gain any special abilities, even if her new appearance would seem to grant it. The effect ends once the distorter is not maintaining psionic focus or it can be dismissed as a free action.

This ability replaces the Scribe Tattoo feat normally gained at 1st level.

In combat Rhami is a skirmisher who excels when he can flank with another combatant.
Out of combat he's a skill monkey and trapfinder with a decent selection of knowledge skills. He also is a very skilled scout.

Rhami was born in an island nation situated beyond the lands of Maquoran Fleet. Life in his home country was centred around the worship of the Feathered Serpent, a warlike deity who had, according to legend, helped the people conquer their island nation and repel invasion from barbaric outsiders. In a form of everlasting gratitude regular sacrifices would be brought to what supposedly was the god's living embodiment on the material plane. These sacrifices were brought in the form of those psionically gifted from among their own population, as this talent was believed to be a remnant of the corruption of the outsiders.

Like his father before him, Rhami joined the elite unit that was trained to find and capture the so-called 'tainted ones' for sacrifice.
After all, his people had not been attacked ever since the sacrifices started so it was for the good of society.
Yet the belief that what he did was for the good of all did not cause him to like what he did.

When, after a series of earthquakes and increasing amounts of smoke from a nearby volcano, the priests started demanding more sacrifices only caused his discomfort to grow. The Winged Serpent had never protected them against these natural events, that was one of the other gods. One that demanded fruit and not blood. However shortly the other priests said as much they were proclaimed tainted and end up tossed to the snake in the temple.

It was then, when his doubts where deepest, that Rhami came into contact with an underground resistance movement that helped smuggle supposed tainted people off the island and into the lands of the Maquoran Fleet. Initially he ignored them, unwilling to report them as they clearly did what they believed was best he kept their existence a secret. Then, when the priests started demanding that even newly hatched chicks would be tested for 'the taint' Rhami shifted gears and instead started to help people reach the smugglers so they could be taken off the island.

Then the unthinkable happened. At first both Rhami and his father suspected it was a malfunction in their testing equipment. Yet when they swapped out their testing rods for those of others the result remained the same: Rhami was 'tainted'.
While his father was still debating whether he should hand in his own son for sacrifice Rhami did not wait. Within the hour he had packed his things, said his goodbyes and left, using his contacts with the underground to make his escape.
Yet where others were content to live among the Maquoran, Rhami was not. Afraid that he was discovered anyway and what that would mean for his family drove him to flee further away from his home.

Last month he arrived in a city called Arbil. A city populated by psionically gifted, humanoid snakes. While he picked up their language very quickly it took him almost a full month to get over the initial shock. Here were people who almost all carried that supposed 'taint', yet they thrived! His life up to his flight had been one, massive lie. But now he was here and everything would improve.

"Stand, and others stand with you."
Those were the words written over the door to the training hall in which the company that she had signed onto. Strong... Inspiring... and vague. The confusion at something so general made her wonder what she had signed on for.

That they were undergoing a "reorganization" was something that was not mentioned to her at signing.

"Oh. Joy."

Training was an undertaking. From what she could gather, something about the previous contract was something ill-considered, and a complete overhaul of the higher-ups included many of the ranking members leaving with them. So she was left to train where she could, with who she could, and a lot of headaches trying to figure out the training left behind in books and personal journals.
