Species: Hive Wizard (descended from Nokris)
Role: Founder of H.I.L.T., Necromancer
Visual Style: Ritual patchwork robes with Hive stitching and etched bone charms
Weapon / Ability Style: Necromantic rites, soulfire puppetry
Quote:
âFor one secondâI wasnât alone.â
Overview
A disciple of necromancy exiled from Hive traditions, Kezen formed H.I.L.T. to gather the discardedâthose rejected by Sword Logic. She never sought power, only release. Where others saw heresy, she saw rebirth.
Full Bio
Once part of a hidden sect within the Hive, Kezen was a disciple of necromantic rites.
Unlike Nokris, she never sought acclaim. She learned in silence, practiced in exile, and eventually severed herself from the Hive hierarchy altogether.
Kezen founded H.I.L.T. to reclaim what the Hive discarded: reason, restraint, and purpose.
She carries regret like a lanternâand lets it light her path.
Kezen was born of forbidden lineageâdescended from Nokris, a pariah among pariahs. Raised in shadows and quiet scrutiny, she hid her necromantic ability for fear of Hive orthodoxy branding her heretic. Her gift was to return the dead not as puppetsâbut as echoes. And it terrified those who served the Sword Logic.
She left. She wandered. She learned. She began to stitch together a new kind of powerânot from servitude or god-worship, but from fractured lives like her own.
Those who joined her didnât kneel. They stood. Together, they became H.I.L.T.âHive Idolized to Lost Trails.
Personality
Stern & Strong-Willed
Maternal in cryptic, ritualistic ways
Sees common power ranks as a burden

Quote:
Thereâs an insanity in control. I have control, just within insanity.â
Overview
Kiln speaks like a philosopher and fights like a siege wall. He was once a mindless soldier, but Kezen taught him how to reflect. He speaks rarely, but with extreme, keen weight.
Full Bio
Kiln is Kezenâs hammer, her shield, and her foundation.
A once-fallen Knight known for his brutal efficiency, Kiln defected during a siege that left his battalion in ashes.
He speaks little, acts swiftly, and believes in strengthânot for conquest, but for peace.
His weapons are dual-wielded cleavers modeled after Cabal gladiators, reforged into axes by his own hand.
Kiln was H.I.L.T.âs first hammer. A warrior who began in blade and shield, fighting among Hive trenches before defecting under Kezenâs ideals.
He took interest in Cabal cleaversânot for brutality, but for their balance. He forged his Great Dane Axe: one massive weapon that splits into two.
Despite his strength, Kiln served as peacemaker, reigning in Kapaarâs chaos and anchoring the groupâs brutal intent. His partnership with Kapaar was brotherlyâargumentative, explosive, but unwavering.
Kilnâs legacy is etched in every fallen enemy and every soldier who saw him not as a bruteâbut as a bastion.
Personality
Stoic, mostly in mannerisms
intelligent & insightful
Treats grief & battle as sacred

His combat pacing changes based on courtesy & respect. Begins calm & observant, ends volatile if disrespected. In-raid mechanics reflect this shift.

Species: Hive
Role: Pyroshock Disruptor, Flamefield Control
Visual Style: Faded gray armor, red/green glow accents, soulfire tank on back
Weapon / Ability Style: âGospelâ â soulfire-modified flamethrower of his own invention
Quote:
âIf I laugh maniacally, itâs working!â
Overview
A pyro-hive engineer with a mouth as dangerous as his weapon. Behind the chaos lies remorse, shown through his craftsmanship and isolation. He named his weapon hoping someone would finally listen to him.
Full Bio
Kapaar is H.I.L.T.âs spark and shrapnelâa living weapon wrapped in burnt prayer.
Once a Hive boomer with no leash and no conscience, he found belonging under Kezenâs command.
He modified Cabal flamethrowers to emit soulfire, branding his enemies with heat and memory.
Kapaar often causes more damage than intended, but Kezen sees something salvageable in himâeven when he doesnât.
If Kiln was the shield, Kapaar was the wildfire. Once a Hive brute of staggering force, he fell in love with destructionâbut only when it meant progress.
Where Kiln sought structure, Kapaar sought heat. He took inspiration from Cabal Incendiors and re-engineered a flamethrower fueled not by flame, but by soulfire. The result? Chaos, often uncontrollable.
Burns lace his right armâscars he wears with pride. He calls them âAugurs,â signs that heâs seen the future and it bleeds.
He and Kiln fought more with words than weaponsâbut stood together every battle. Kapaarâs journal scrawls in ash:
âStructure cools. Fire builds. You need both to make steel.â
Personality
Rowdy, sarcastic, chaotic
Deeply scarred and insecure
Loyal in reckless, unconventional ways
Signature Traits / Battle Notes
Leaves trails of soulfire and sets zones ablaze. Explosives speak louder than words. Despite being the comic relief, heâs also the emotional wildcard.

Weapon / Ability Style: Mind control, swift mobility, limited but calculated weapon use
âI donât need to be louderâI just need to be the last thing you remember.â
Overview
Gharâkaan doesnât overpowerâshe unravels. A master of mental manipulation, she was trained to infiltrate and destabilize long before she ever picked up a weapon. Rarely flinches, and rarely loses control. Her bond with Kezen was deeper than loyaltyâit was purpose. And her connection to Harthânoak gave her a tether to her own fading sense of self.
Full Bio
A Hive acolyte genetically blocked from becoming a wizard, Gharâkaan adapted. She favored range, versatility, and intelligenceâshifting from thrall to tactician. Her third eye was damaged in battle, and Kezen gifted her a crystal lens to protect and weaponize it.
The lens can subdue enemies who stare too long into its glow.
Once an acolyte bound for wizardhood, Gharâkaanâs mutation denied her that path. She turned instead to intellect, outfitting herself with a soulfire rifle and a modified shredder.
She fought for Hiraks, then defected after his fall. Kezen saw potential in her traumaâpotential she nurtured.
After a firefight damaged her third eye, Kezen gifted her a crystal-laced helmet. It glows with influence: anyone who stares risks falling under her control. She used it many times to subdue adversaries Kezen desires alive, once to avenge herself. She forced the perpetrator to end ones own life with their weapon.
To H.I.L.T., sheâs a tactician. To Kezen, a confidant.
Personality
Controlled and cold on the outside
Deeply protective of those she trusts
Avoids loud approaches when possible, prefers stealth in missions

âHis scream isnât a soundâitâs a memory shattering.â
Overview
A towering monster fused from cursed Thrall and twisted Hive tech. Harth doesnât speak, but he feelsâand when grief hits, he detonates. Gharâkaan is his anchor. Without her, his control is fractured.
Full Bio
Harthânoak is an anomalyâan ogre with emotional depth forged through ritual and grief.
He doesnât speak, but feels. When calm, he is a stone pillar. When enraged, a quaking faultline.
Kiln brings him offerings. Kapaar tempers his tone near him. And Gharâkaan once placed her hand on his headâhe let her.
He remembers that.
A cursed ogre built from the grave by Kezen herself, Harthânoak commands legions of cursed Thrallâbeing one in origin, just far greater.
He bears the glowing blue essence inside his skin, just like the cursed ones he leads.
Kezen considered him her most dangerous creationâand her most vulnerable. He obeys without language, expressing only through gesture and grief.
Under enough stress, Harth detonatesâa catastrophic explosion that kills both guardian and ghost. The only way to prevent it is coordinated disruption. He does not speak. But his sorrow echoes.
Final title: The Mourner. His pain is not just fuel. Itâs memory.
Personality
Quiet and haunted
Fiercely loyal and protective
good hearing, expresses & reacts via rumbles and gestures
