Mouv, The Recondite Queen

Ta'Akaix'Mouv'lek'tanta C'thur, The Recondite Queen

Mouv'lek'tanta's virtual reality is often conceptualized as an ocean that exists in all directions, besides the direction one starts in. Lin'tiyakt navigate these worlds to discover secrets hidden within data, or to hack machines within the real world.

Her brood is identified by scent and their exoskeleton color amongst C'thur.

Unbound of any type: (RGB 150, 180, 255)

Bound Warriors: (RGB 110,100, 255)

Bound Workers: (RGB 90, 150, 255)

Mouv'lek'tanta is the oldest daughter of C'thur and has quickly developed political alliances within and outside of Federation space. Indeed, As the oldest lesser queen, Mouv'lek's brood has thrived under the care of Jargon, with thousands of her unbound Ka and Za working in tandem with scientists from the Jargon federation to develop new technologies, as well to provide information about the enemies the federation may face. Upon planet Diulszi most of her bound spawn has taken to the sea, assisting the skrell with dozens of underwater construction projects.A practitioner of mutable biology, her brood, especially the bound, possess a wide variety of body forms, with new ones being developed continuously. Typically lightly colored, Mouv'lek's brood used this to their advantage historically as the hives primary diplomats. By virtue of being clearly visible in the darkened chasms of old Sedantis, it was harder to mistake them as hostile or armed. She has kept this mutation alive in her spawn, holding onto the hope that perceptions of her hive remain disarming to those that view them. Diplomacy aside, she has made inroads within Eriandi, buying a significant portion of Einstein Engines through various skrellian intermediaries by selling off some of the more complex Vaurcan virtual reality technology. Perhaps more than any other of her hive, Mouv'lek realizes the power of money in the new society the C'thur finds itself in and has done all she can to acquire more of it.

Her VR, if it could be called a virtual reality, houses the minds of born and dead unbound Ka and Za in a space much like the interstice, a place between different VR realms where raw data is expressed, and the physicality of reality itself is expressed little. Here, she trains all of her unbound to navigate endless scrawls of translated machine code, expressed physically within the confines of the VR construct. Obtained via Hive-net relay, unquantifiable amounts of data surge forth like a quasi-physical tidal wave. Deceased Za and Ka who dive themselves into the oceans of this sometimes physical data stream call themselves Lin'tiyakt, or net-trawlers. Even with the processing power of a Cephalon, the data expressed within exists only for mere moments, and it is the skill of the net-trawlers to identify and capture useful data before it is washed out of memory. The most successful net-trawlers achieve renown throughout the hive, with a value being based upon the most secret, and important data obtained. It is not without danger, however, as with all trawls sometimes anti-hacking software can be triggered, turning the ocean of data into a seething froth. Fomenting whirls of data scour the minds of those unlucky few caught in it, sucking them under and outside of the data stream, forever lost. The danger of her VR is not lost upon Mouv'lek, who rewards those who manage to bring to light the darkest secrets of the galaxy from the abyssal depths of the data stream by allowing them greater control of her construct, or extended sessions within VR. The secrets obtained by her virtual reality has made Mouv'lek. It is the basis of her success, and with the growing scope of her influence, so too does her ambition continue to expand.

Of her brood, there are two noteworthy Xakat'kl'atan, acting as the ideal teachers for newly born Za or Ka.

Ka’Akaix’Lozi C’thur

Ka’Akaix’Lozi C’thur is known to be one of the few workers sent to battlefields for the purpose of negotiations. Identified by their light blue carapace, Lozi would often talk fights down as they moved, often escorted by few warriors, through the battlefield. Their presence often halted fights. However, their title of Master Of Ideal Forms only came after they died, and only because they died. Lozi died attempting to de-escalate rising conflict between two lesser, forgotten hives. These hives could not be talked down - a fact all knew. Their feud had lasted eons, and could not be stopped so easily. Many had tried but only succeeded in truces. However, both hives served a unique purpose - destroying one to end the fighting wouldn't be beneficial, especially since they both contributed to the construction of the hive ships. Lozi devised a plan, through rapid calculation of the scene, and came up with this - become a martyr, inducing the wrath of the larger C’thur hive, and drawing the attention of the Zo’ra, which would either force a war in which both lesser hives would be lost, or force them to stand down to prevent more bystander casualties. The latter occurred, both hives submitting to peace, allowing them to focus on the production of resources and research - something that was incredibly beneficial to the production of the hive ships. Without Lozi, the ships would have taken longer to construct - this is certain.

Za’Akaix’Vezaz C’thur

Za’Akaix’Vezaz C’thur is in one word, a hacker. Accomplished in decryption and encryption, Vezaz is one of the newer masters, becoming one the year of first contact with skrell while still alive no less. The reasons for such are not exactly known, but it is assumed that they played a pivotal role in decoding alien programs, as well as understanding them in the first place. Vezaz truly came into his own however when contact was established within Eridani. With Gangers and even corporate lackeys knowing Vezaz under his human given hacker pseudonym Ecdysis. With the unbound use of technology within Eriandi, the ways VR interacts with human technology was unknown territory prior to Vezaz, and its use has transformed the world of hacking throughout the known galaxy. Suddenly, cyberspace networks once thought uncrackable have become vulnerable, with their network architecture simulated in ways that can be navigated and bypassed in a VR construct. With their recent ascent as a master of the ideal, the world of hacking is surely to change, for all species.
