The Eliksni, (Biology) A Series By BlightedSpirit

Biology Of The Eliksni Key Words: Ether Splicer Adult Insectoid Arms Limbs Welcome to my first post of The Eliksni series, this post we will be analyzing the biology and the core ideology of the fallen and how they perform a certain type of metamorphosis. The Eliksni are insectoid looking creatures, they consist of four arms and two legs. They have equal control over these limbs, not to mention these limbs are quite strong. The head of the Eliksni is not seen often as they wear mechanized helmets, but the most distinctive feature is the four glowing eyes. And that their mouths are filled with sharp teeth. Not to include they have Mandibles, making them more insect like. Let's move onto the life force of the Eliksni, Ether. Ether is a whitish and blueish fluid formed from organic material. Ether is found naturally on their homeworld but due to the lack of Ether on Luna, Venus, and Earth they are forced to transform organic material and turn it into Ether using a unspecified process that Servitors perform. Many guardians confuse the sudden outburst of Ether from the body of a decapitated Eliksni as their soul. Though ether is also not the only substance in the body. As purple-like-blood also flows. Now, Eliksni are similar to humans in a manner where they breath and grow naturally, with body hair also growing on their heads and well body! Their homeworld is humid and fit for them. Due to difficult and unstable breathing conditions on earth for their race they resort to a built in apparatus in their helmets to pump customized air. While the average dreg is puny to a full sized adult Eliksni, (Now known as a kell, as they consume that much ether only.) If dregs were to consume a sizable amount of Ether and be freed from physical restraints they would grow. Fallen dreg limbs grow at a interesting rate and are usually capped so they do not grow as punishment for their uselessness. As Humans we were not able to properly dissect and perform experiments on a living Eliksni adult so we are limited in knowledge such as reproduction, infant growth, and such more . But with the help of the guardian hope arises as we might have a chance to explore more anatomical parts of the Eliksni body. I hope you enjoyed my first post about the race of Eliksni, more will come involving houses, vehicles, splicers, weapons, and more!

  • In certain areas in the Plaguelands, you can find staffs with skulls on top of them. These are used for the quarantine patrol missions and most have human skulls. However, one in particular inside a cave in the Archon's Keep features an Eliksni skull. Just thought that might help out in biology terms because you can get a really good look at it.
