Ahsat Ruchlos

Ahsat Ruchlos was a male Drakonus and ruler of Klesk. He was best known for exterminating the planet's entire Drakonus population.

Biography
Ahsat was born on Klesk in 512 BBY. He was the only child of Jaek and Kamille Ruchlos. Being raised under the elected clan leader but being told about the ways of Rykar gave the young man a unique experience. Ahsat became his father's advisor early on and eventually became Jaek's second—the ways of Rykar still ran deep in the people.

In 146 ABY, Jaek died and Ahsat assumed the title of clan leader. Not fully ready for the job, Ahsat tried to meet the expectations of his people and grew into the position with age. For over a century he ruled Klesk while keeping things as his father had.

The problems came in 50 ABY, when the Drakonus began to fell that they should become a larger democracy, not just for their clan leader but all positions. Ahsat became concerned with the power he had put in place for himself. By 54 ABY he felt so threatened that he moved his father's scientific research from curing the ferals to controlling them. Over the next fifty years Ahsat watched the people he had put in power be replaced by those he couldn't control.

Fear of losing his position intensified and Ahsat began to start to forcibly put Klesk back to the ways of Rykar. He shut down voting options for many things, upsetting the people. The harder he fought for control, the more people resented him. During this period he tasked his scientists to create Mort Sora.

In 110 ABY, Ahsat married a Drakonus female in a poor attempt to gain favor. She gave birth to their son Jaek Junior in 111 ABY, but died in childbirth. Fighting to keep his empire quiet and raise his soon took up all Ahsat's time. By 114 ABY full civil war erupted and Ahsat authorized the use of Mort Sora. It was just supposed to kill the rebels, but the disease started to pollute every water supply.

In late 116 ABY, with war everywhere and Mort Sora killing thousands, the younger Jaek was exposed to tainted water and died. This sent Ahsat over the edge, and he executed anyone he thought could be responsible.

By 117 ABY, eighty-five percent of the Drakonus were dead and the rest dying. Ahsat committed suicide by taking a heavy dose of poison and died on his throne.

Appearance and personality
In his Human form, Ahsat had brown eyes and chestnut hair, with a fair skin tone; he stood 1.83 meters tall. In Drakonus form, he was 2.21 meters tall and rust orange.

Ahsat was quick to anger, but quiet about it. He would stew over things until he could get over the issue. His people felt he was not a great leader, and his temper flared more as the years went by. Eventually, he simply snapped.
