Wordun is not yet approved Characters played by Morganus.
Height: 5'8” Mass: 135 lbs
Build and Skin Colour: Quite tall, otherwise he is skinny and slim, just as any of his race. His skin is turquoise blue, but with some grey spots indicating his matured state.
Facial Features and Eye Colour: His face somehow has a reverent look due to the extreme symmetry of his veins trace, and what's more, his rare black eye colour gives him quite a piercing leer.
Hair Colour and Style: He wears his grenish blue algae-hair in the traditional 'Khasss-khor', which is a peacock-tail shaped hairstyle. Althought it represents in Teres social status as well, its primary purpose is maximizing the surface for gas exchange.
Distinguishing Features: Black eyes, a metalic earring clipped on his left ear-fin.
Personality: Wordun is a genuine two-faced person. Eccentric and philosopher at the same time: he can be strict and morose, and in the next minute he changes into a charmy and lovely buddy. Because of this, it's nearly impossible to know, actually what's in his mind or what his next step will be. Quite dangerous for a pilot, I must say… The name, given at the Kel'Moror, 'Wordun', fits him really well: it means 'Stormrider'. Even he admits that his always changing mood and behaviour makes it hard to like him, but otherwise, the lack of friends and a mate doesn't really matter for him. He is a lone wolf, with love only for the strong winds and insane speed. His element is in the turbulent atmosphere of his homeland, not in the water; that is too closed and slow medium for his rebellious and explorer spirit.
Likes: Speed, Thrill, Racing, Windsurfing, Developing Dislikes: Permanency, Obligations, Philistine, Giving autographs Goals: Developing new machines, technologies, getting on board of a starship, and see the outer worlds.
Wordun, at that time as a nameless being, hatched from his egg in Teres, at the time of CC 7. From the very beginning, as a young spawnling, he showed quite talent in making concepts and plans, and got great grades in school, although he was more interested in his own dicoveries then the official curriculum. In his childhood, he tried out windsurfing, and loved it, however he desired not only flying up high, but also, reaching distant, unknown places as fast as it's even possible. So, he decided to become a legendary engineer, who makes the fastest vehicle on the surface of Sudran. Maybe because of this, his favourite subjects were mathematics and sciences. As a youngster, he had come to know the disciplines of Areeka in the temple of the goddess, so as a follower he started practising the ancient martial art called 'Roktarek' at the age of 9.
At the age of 10, he had his initiation at the Kel'Moror ceremony. He was in a two-day long, but very intense, anxious unconscious state, and the gained prize for his distress was a telling name: Wordun, which means 'Stormrider'. So, he has become a person, a unique entity, and because of this, he wanted to reach the utmost peaks of social status and achievements. And his urge for becoming a legend, such as Ameriss was for generations of Azoreans, made him really better in every aspect. Or at least, in the field he has chosen… He asked no other, than Great Master Rowatar to enroll him as a pupil in Mechanical Engineering. The word workaholic really fits Wordun, but at that time, he was really a lunatic. He was working on his own racing vehicle for 5 years, and it was really a tough job, because he also had to find sponsors for this expensive adventure. But, in the end, he has managed to fabricate a useable pod racer, the prototype called 'Areeska', with the support of the Teres Engineering Company (the predecessor of Teres Heavy Industries), which also hired the young assistant engineer. So, as a speed racer of the company's Blue Lightning Racing Team, in his 3 year-long carreer he has won many trophies and awards, such as the 'Annual Young Tallent Award CC 23' and the 'Medal for Honourable Citizen of Teres' for going around on the planet's surface (it was nearly a year odyssey in CC 24). At the age of 19, his racer carreer has officially ended, and on that very day, he has got his draft call for the Pilot Training Program of the Commonwealth.
Bareos Wordun was assigned to the Alpha Military Camp in the vicinity of Edel for basic training. He was promoted to Rinotos after only two years, and after another two years to the rank of Tarinos. But, all in these years, he had to do missions, such as patrolling and transporting with his own vehicle, not to mention, that the engineers in the army grabbed all chances to study it. So, the fast rising was probably more than just the result of luck, hard work or talent, and he knew that very much. The real reason was the great interest for the Areeska prototype, the Commonwealth badly wanted it, just as the biggest corporations as well. However, the patent rights were belonging to both the inventor and the financial group of Teres Heavy Industries, so this issue started a war in the battlefields of law. After many trials and an everlasting litigation, Honourable Judge Wirdasim adjudicated the Areeska as one of the National Treasures of the Azoreans Commonwealth. So, now the blueprints are in the hand of the Commonwealth, but every manufacturer has to pay quite a sum to the Teres Heavy Industries. Anyway, at the age of 28, Wordun has become an Eccatus, and ready to serve as a pilot. The only question is, serving on what…
Wordun loves tinkering and designing things, especially vehicles and spaceships. His way of thinking is genuine and very innovative, but unfortunately the current technological level of his race binds him strongly.
Wordun is familiar with and able to fix most problems with vehicle components and systems on the current level of the Azorean technology. He knows very well how parts are functioning and the theory behind each, so it's not hard for him keep things operating even in harsh conditions.
His specialties are hydrofoil sailboats, developed by him and his co-workers. Also, he is interested in all types of ships, hovercrafts, even Rills, but he thinks these droids are too infantile compared to the possibilities in the future.
As an Areeka follower, he has learned the martial art called 'Roktarek' from the warrior monks of the goddess. It's an elegant, barehanded self-defence system which utilizes the opponent's movements and strength.
As an Eccatus he is able to lead fellow Azoreans, also in peace time, if he is working on a development, for example. Wordun doesn't speak that often, but he can be very talkative, so sometimes he shows his natural rhetoric talent and sharp mind.
He's become an expert in aerobatics and advanced maneuvers because of his racing carreer, and also has some knowledge about meteorology, aerodynamics and navigation. The real problem is, that without aerial combat experience, he lacks exercise and has only the conception of aerial warfare and dogfighting. Not to mention, that although he was trained to be a pilot, he has never been in a spaceship, all he could do is a vast amount of simulation training.
Wordun is familiar with basic radio operation and procedures, and he knows the proper methods of writing reports and filling out military forms. As every Azorean, Wordun speaks the mother tongue of his race, he has learned to read and write at a very young age, and he is also interested in the ancient symbols of The Forgotten, but he knows much less about the Polusites than he wants to. Actually he doesn't fear the shadows of the past, moreover, he firmly believes that the Commonwealth needs the technology and hidden knowledge of the ancient brothers, the Forgotten.

I'd like to be involved in the ACS Ameriss plot, somehow, if it's possible and still running.
