Careodry (proper Acaranian name Ceriodry, English Fate Seeker) is a Euthoran Voidwalker and a recurring supportive character in both Cult of Ustream and Euthoran Song canons. Both iterations of him, however, are one and the same; his exploits in one are canon to his exploits in the other, due to his ability to manipulate events in history and thus travel between timelines. Therefore, although he only becomes a Soul Harvester in Cult of Ustream canon, he keeps this role after the corresponding point in Euthoran Song canon.

Because of his inquisitive nature and careless alteration of important events, especially in Euthora's history, the Euthoran pantheon has marked him as an enemy. Throughout Euthora's history, and even when Careodry becomes a Soul Harvester, this Voidwalker tends to appear during notably dangerous situations, a result of the pantheon attempting to remove the threat he poses. They did succeed at this at one point in Euthoran Song canon- the Careodry in these two canons is the one native to Cult of Ustream's.

Appearance

Careodry appears as most typical Voidwalkers do- with a lithe, agile build on four long legs, his hide covered in slick black scales and blue markings spread across his body. However, Careodry is subject to a rare color anomaly known as melanism, meaning that his blue markings are darker than normal and do not glow as brightly. This leads to an increased visibility of the pupils of his eyes, which appear as a lighter blue. A dorsal fin runs along the length of his spine, ending shortly before his second tail stripe, its top broken by black stripes. He also has stripes on his tail fin, which is positioned much like a dolphin's and is used to help him steer through the void.

Careodry's chief markings are the large bars on his limbs and his blue underbelly, but he also has two stripes on his back, two ring-like stripes on his tail, and one ring-like stripe on his neck. His muzzle and the sides of his head are also blue. While these are darker than normal, his Voidcore glows brightly with what should be his true color- a bright electric blue matching the pupils of his eyes. This gemstone hangs around his neck, except for the short periods of time where he does not have it. It has a pulsating violet-black core that appears to have collapsed in on itself, but the rest of the gemstone varies from clear to bright blue depending on the lighting.

The bottom of Careodry's right foreclaw is branded with a rune that marks him as a target of the pantheon. This rune appears to be the archaic Drakine symbol used to mean "war", though the meaning has been interpreted as other, similar concepts. His paws are three-toed with dewclaws, and lack true talons, instead taking on the appearance of being "sheathed" a la most species' ability to partially retract claws. Careodry also has a total of twelve vectors- semitransparent, psychokinetic limb- that can reach a range of about ten or eleven meters- or perhaps more later in Careodry's life. After becoming a Soul Harvester, Careodry tends to manifest golden runes that appear etched into the vectors, similar to the Soul Harvesters' scythes, but only does this during battle for the aesthetic effect. The bear no effect on his combat performance.

Personality

Careodry notably seems perpetually amused, except in times where seriousness is needed for survival or an equally important goal. As he tends to say, he never does anything without having a reason for it- although his reason tends to be simple curiosity- and only occasionally interacts personally with the world outside of his void. Careodry's morals work very differently from most mortals', though are still understandable once his motives are clear. He seems to believe that even if he alters events in one timeline and makes someone's life miserable, he can "make up" for it in another timeline by giving that person the opportunity to live like a king.

He has a very odd, wry sense of humor, and once in a rare while he will befriend a mortal (as much as it is possible for him to befriend someone whose fate he has likely changed for better or worse in several different realities). He seems to have little, if any, regard for his personal safety unless in a situation where death is an imminent possibility.

Fighting Style

Powers

• Manipulation of history: The chief power that he is known for, Careodry has the ability to observe other timelines and time periods and change the outcomes of events. He does this mostly out of curiosity, to see how a single change can affect everything involved, and perhaps some things that do not outwardly seem relevant. It is this ability that marks him as an Outside Observer, and later contributes to his becoming a Soul Harvester. This power allows him to travel between timelines, though he is still tethered to the time period he resides in.

Abilities

• Psychic potential: As a Voidwalker, Careodry has powerful psychic potential to the point where he is at least partially immune to powers such as dracoimpery. This is only heightened at the beginning of the Reformative Era, when all Voidwalkers are given a higher psychic capacity as part of their becoming the dominant land-based race of Euthora. This psychic capability allows Careodry to use telepathy- in person and through his Voidcore- as well as allowing him complete mastery of all twelve of his vectors.

Equipment

• Voidcore: Careodry's Voidcore is a translucent, dipyramidal gemstone that hangs by a cord around the base of his neck. In certain lighting, it can appear anywhere from light blue, to black, to clear in color, but always has a deep violet core that appears to have collapsed in on itself. This is because the core of the gem is in fact a contained void, which, when breached, causes the Voidcore's most notable effect: creating a one-way portal to anywhere of the holder's choosing. Regardless of lighting, the Voidcore glows a bright electric blue when active, the same color as the pupils of Careodry's eyes.

Careodry is almost always seen with his Voidcore, despite occasionally giving one to a person he has "befriended". This is in part because Voidwalkers naturally produce these gemstone through unknown means. Careodry has given only two of his Voidcores away- one to Shadow Version 27, and one to [REDACTED], even though [REDACTED]. He also [REDACTED].
