King Charvak

"All of it started when the Architect drew a drawing board on a drawing board, but it was King Charvak that provided the paper."

- Narrator, Ten Years Gone

King Charvak was a citizen of BZPower who collaborated with the Architect to create the BZPB Multiverse.

Description
In 150,084 CMT (March 31st, 2018 for the Users), King Charvak wore a black jacket with red linings, pants of the same color, and a buttoned white shirt with no tie. His head was a glowing white orb with what seemed to be a golden Kanohi Avohkii attached to its front. By 253,074 CMT, his appearance had changed somewhat to resemble the form of an especially tall and muscular shirtless human man, albeit one with a Kanohi Avohkii still firmly attached to the front of his face or head.

History
King Charvak collaborated with the Architect to create the BZPB Multiverse. Though details about the exact nature of his involvement are sparse because BZPower's records of this time have since been destroyed, an analogy was made that described the venture as "if it was the Architect who drew the multiverse on the first drawing board, it was Charvak who provided the paper". Regardless, Charvak chose not to stick around to witness the development of BZPB, instead departing in pursuit of other ventures on BZPower and beyond.

In 150,084 CMT (but March 31st, 2018 for the Users - exactly ten years after the creation of the BZPB Multiverse), King Charvak was returned to the User HQ because User MK wanted Charvak to see what BZPB had become in the decade since Charvak was last involved with the project. The Architect led Charvak into a room that contained arcade-like machines, each one containing one universe in the BZPB Multiverse, and showed him the events of each universe in fast-forward. When User MK and User Kon teleported into the room to meet Charvak and tell him and the Architect about the anniversary story they had written, Charvak told User MK that he was amazed and proud at what BZPB had become, hoping that his response answered the curiosity that User MK had about himself.

By 253,074 CMT, King Charvak had become more involved with the affairs of the Users and BZPB, but his friendship with the Architect had deteriorated somewhat. When the Architect and User LM were arrested by the Platinum Lantern Corps, User MY called King Charvak to help deal with the situation. Charvak arrived in the User HQ and told User MY that he would interrogate the Architect, pausing when User MK broke the news that F-Klak had been killed and that Klak was his murderer.

In Charvak's interrogation of the Architect, Charvak scolded the Architect for interfering with what he deemed to be the natural course of events, because Charvak had planned to let F-Klak destroy Blackout and Ynot so that Charvak could eliminate him himself, and the Architect's interference had made this impossible. However, Charvak's mood was swayed when the Architect revealed that F-Klak was still alive in some form. Once Charvak had extracted all the information he needed from the Architect, he left the Architect alone in his cell.

Trivia

 * The real-world King Charvak was a BZPower member and friend of User:Heat/DRJ who posted the first BZPB topic on his behalf. Charvak met DRJ, who was then known as "brutaka555", in a flame war known as the "BVM war". When the topic in which the flame war was taking place was locked, brutaka555 changed his name to Makuta: Master of Shadows and began to play a game called Endless Feud. Unfortunately, its players accused M:MoS of god-modding whenever he did anything at all, so he PM'd Charvak with an idea for a game he had (BZPower Battles, which would later come to be known as BZPB) and went to bed. When MMoS woke up, he found that Charvak had already posted the BZPB topic and gotten many people to play it, which was good, but that he had twisted his original idea out of recognition (M:MoS wanted to allow people to play solo or ally themselves into teams if they wanted to, whereas Charvak made being in a team mandatory). Because the end result wasn't that bad, MMoS decided to stick with it.
