Originally kept prisoner by BioCorp for experimentation, xe broke free from containment and escaped in the late 2170s. Xe is the leader of the Anomaly Rights Coalition, and fights against Raven to establish rights for partially anomalous lifeforms like xemselves.
Creation
Exon was created by BioCorp at the company's secretive Site 18 Research Facility in the late 2150s, building on both knowledge gained from dissecting the stranded Ir'vaki diplomats and knowledge that the company had acquired regarding the relationship between entropics and substratics; the same process from which the Selerian Horror was created. They had partially acquired knowledge of this from their previous custody of the entity, which escaped from their containment nearly three decades prior.
BioCorp took Ir'vaki stem cells from the diplomats, modified them with the latest in their gene editing technology, and then implanted them into an artificial womb. They were then grown in an environment of complete saturation in entropic radiation, causing Exon to develop xer natively powerful substratic capabilities. Exon was kept in containment and experimented on throughout xer childhood, with no knowledge of the culture of xer species.
Personality
Exon is a cunning, mischievous, and enigmatic anarchist who possesses a deep distaste for the perpetrators of xer imprisonment, as well as those responsible in humanity as a whole who committed atrocities against the Ir'vaki species.
Xe is approachable despite xer somewhat imposing appearance, but xe doesn't hesitate to show off the full range of xer abilities to those xe considers a threat to xer friends or self. Although Exon is genetically Ir'vaki, xey align more closely with human culture than xer own race's, due to xer upbringing and existence in human society.
Design
Exon is a tall, imposing reptilian. Xer body is covered by dark purple scales with a metallic sheen, as well as bioluminescent purple accents. Xey have slitted eyes with iridescent, colour-changing irises, and a lizard-like tail with a sharp, bladed metallic tip.
Due to xer innate Ir'vaki physiology, xey possess innate psionic powers, the ability to sense and manipulate electromagnetic fields, and rapid regeneration from physical injury. Ir'vaki also subside on both organic and metallic diets, integrating the latter as armour into xer bodies.
Relations
Exon is one of the highest threats catalogued by Raven due to xer powers and motivations, masterminding the attack that forced the self-destruction of the Wilhelm Schmitz Research Facility and single-handedly eliminating a squad of elite Calamity Mitigation (CMI) operatives. Xe also has a personal rivalry with Cypher, an elite CMI synthetic who managed to greatly wound xem during the attack.
