Kit'za Hanyth

Kit'za Hanyth is a character played by _Kittenz on the world of Rathnir. He is currently affiliated with the Blessed Diarchy of Knossos.

Kit'za is a Flosist and is a soldier in the Knossan military, he is friends with several Knossan citizens and has journeyed to a few other countries around the world. He generally sits around fishing in his hometown of Selintragou or exploring the vast world of Rathnir.

He is a half-cyborg catman who is afflicted with bad amnesia about his true origin, and has set off to find a new path.

The Future
To understand the character of Kit'za Hanyth, one must first understand his origins: the half cyborg catman actually doesn't originally come from Rathnir. At least, not our Rathnir. No, the world Kit'za comes from was a desolate wasteland, the most common sight around being a rough bedrock floor that seemed to stretch on to eternity; except where it was gashed open by tears in space, leading right into the infinite void. This was a world that Rathnir could become, one of many possible futures, an outcome wrought by it's past and without a future.

Growing up in such a dangerous and barren world, survival was always a struggle, even with the advanced technology of the societies of future Rathnir. Despite the enablement of massive industrialization after the Great Revolution against the gods, the people of Rathnir were still limited by the sheer scarcity of safe land for farming and living. This awful fate was the result of a great war between the nations of Rathnir: after casting off the cosmic laws binding them, the people of Rathnir enjoyed an era of prosperity, seeing infinite food, gear, and immense wealth being given to every citizen of every country. But with most resources effectively being infinite, and all that was left to do being to war for the last thing that was limited, land. This led the great nations of Rathnir into constant war, which saw a steady arms race to create the greatest weapons. Eventually, one of the greatest minds in the world, an ancient man known only by his (self-proclaimed) name of "the Genius Intellect," created a weapon with no peer. The Void Cannon, powered by a primordial End Crystal, created devastating tears in space wherever it fired. This development quickly spread across the world, and before anyone could see the consequences of their actions, the once infinite resources dried up as most of the matter in the world was completely erased by void cannons.

And this ultimately led to where Kit'za would end up at his birth, a wasteland, where everything was made of those few renewable resources people had left, and contact with other regions was severely limited by spacial tears severing the world apart. The name for the place Kit'za grew up had long since been lost to time, but the young catman always dreamed of how beautiful the world of the past must have been. Just a few years before he ended up in our Rathnir, a sudden tear in reality ripped most of his body to shreds, forcing the people of his nation to turn him into a cyborg for him to live. Since this commitment from his people took precious resources that could never be found anymore, like redstone, it only strengthened his resolve to find a better way forward for his people. Kit'za had just the idea... a way backward.

After a few years, his people had managed to construct a time machine by piecing together ancient scriptures written by the "Genius Intellect" before his untimely disappearance. Ultimately, they only had enough redstone to power a single trip to the past, and Kit'za was selected to find a way to save the past Rathnir from this terrible future, and to find a way to bring his people back to a better time. And so... he stepped through the portal, it's shimmering power absorbing him and sending him back well over a thousand years into the past...

Arrival in Rathnir
The moment the catman stepped through, he found himself in a vastly different world. Kit'za found that for some reason, he had been given a few basic tools by the gods of this realm, and after checking the surroundings, he began to look around. Finding himself in a forest with no signs of civilization, he set off to the west to find a town.

After traveling for a few hours, Kit'za had found that this world was indeed a paradise. Life and natural beauty abounded everywhere he looked, and if he could just find some way to bring his people back, he was sure that the dark future could be prevented. But as he finally found a path, disaster struck. It turned out the people of this world weren't as nice as their environment... Kit'za heard a strange sound, a loud clang, like something made of heavy metal being placed down above him on a branch.

Just a second later, the last thing that this Kit'za would ever see appeared. Sensing something was wrong, the catman turned his head up: what awaited his eyes was a massive chunk of metal, hurtling down at him from the trees. He barely had a second to register a cackling from the branches above before everything turned to black.

Rathnir
The next thing the catman saw after the anvil struck him right on the head was dirt. The coarse stuff was all over his face, and he quickly struggled to his feet, barely alive. After inhaling a bit of food, his survival instincts were satisfied, and he thought clearly again.

But something was wrong. "Hang on a second. Where am I? What's my name... Kit... Kit'za Hanyth, yes. What is this place?" The catman struggled to form thoughts, his brain badly damaged by the impact. He struggled to remember who he was, and what this place was, and anything but his name, but the memories simply weren't there. After pondering for a bit, he noticed something else in the clearing; a shimmering portal, rippling with purple energy. "Aha! A portal. I recognize that! A portal must be how I got here." Confident his memory was returning, Kit'za headed through, only to find himself in a tunnel carved out of a hideous reddish rock. The whole place was burning hot as well. Horrified, but still convinced this place held answers, the catman set off down the tunnel.

For several days, he wandered around the network of tunnels, slowly running through his food as he got more and more lost. It was only on his last piece of bread that he finally saw a different purple light emerging from the distance. Frantic at this point and nearly starving, Kit'za set off towards it and hopped through immediately.

The city he saw as he emerged shocked him: beautifully built, of shining white and blue materials, by the ocean.

The city that the catman saw that day was the seaside paradise of Selintragou, and after recieving some help from the town's Archon, Enkai, the catman soon settled in to his new city and nation, Knossos. Practically being a blank mental state, the man soon dedicated himself to the military of Knossos to protect his people, and that's where he still remains today. He even found spiritual consolation in Flosism, and constructed a shrine of flowers to the goddess Flos, his original role as a savior to his people shining through in his dedication to protect and improve his nation.
