Kelhedros Tyrax

As a mechanic and cyborg, Kelhedros has, perhaps understandably, sought perfection in the form of the machine. He regularly wears a hooded metal gray-black robe as if to hide his partially-human form. Two mechanical tentacles spring from his back to aid him as extra appendages, one as a power tool/computer interface, and the other as a plasma torch. Due to his mechanical nature, he regularly makes metal popping and whining noises.

Personality
Kelhedros, like many cyborgs, has chosen the route of replacing as much of his human form as he can with cybernetics. He is obsessed with performing efficiently and logically. Though he may be a difficult taskmaster (he grudgingly admits two human co-pilots despite being convinced he could pilot the IPC-RV Savant perfectly on his own), he is also focused beyond what a normal human could probably achieve.

Skills
Kelhedros accompanies the Savant as a technician, pilot, and mechanic, and he is extremely fervent in his belief in machinery.

Being a cyborg certainly has its advantages. He has the ability to use his two human arms in addition to two mechanical appendages that can serve as extra hands, tools, or a computer hookup. He even has the ability to activate the intercom system of the ship with nothing more than a single thought.

Crew of the Savant

 * Although he seems frustrated with the inefficiency of the organic lifeforms on the Savant, Kelhedros is no less loyal to the others on board. He attempts to successfully pilot the Savant's transport to safety, dodging an array of fire from a mysterious source.

Death of a Seer

 * Kelhedros is a Cyber-Seer aboard the IPC vessel the Savant. While keeping his arms still to "conserve every calorie" ("A New Beginning", post 1), Kelhedros summons the crew of the ship with only a thought to the ship. His announcement? It is time to depart to the life-sustaining planet the expedition crew has discovered.


 * Kelhedros moves from the bridge of the Savant to the cockpit of the transport that contains the IPC scientists as well as Andrea Taylor and Colonel O'Neill. But during the flight to the planet's surface, the transport and Savant come under attack from an unknown source. Kelhedros does his best to assume evasive maneuvers, but unfortunately not even his mechanical prowess can protect the transport for long against the onslaught.


 * The transport crashes to the planet's surface, killing Kelhedros and his co-pilots in the process.
