Genetoes (OU)

Genetoes was a Kra'lythe who abandoned the Sha'lythe Sect to become a disciple of Eclipse.

The Disciple of Eclipse
Genetoes teleported himself next to Kakamu, Masaharu, Micros, and Tratus when the four aliens found themselves surrounded by a Parasitic Fluff swarm. Genetoes threatened Masaharu by saying "Even the one who was called the lord of all Chenyromas failed to defeat me, and his son will suffer the same fate", and summoned a massive volcano that broke out of the ground next to him. The volcano erupted with streams of liquid darkness that hurtled towards the four startled aliens, but after Kakamu delayed the attack for a few seconds and teleported away from the battlefield, Genetoes stopped the onslaught of darkness and followed suit, teleporting away to parts unknown.

Genetoes confronted Kakamu again when Kakamu and his son Trantoshen were being electrocuted by Darkmount's security systems. Kakamu asked Genetoes for help, but he replaced Kakamu's eye sockets with spouts of liquid darkness instead. When Vorahk-Kah appeared and blasted Genetoes with lightning, Genetoes absorbed the lightning into an orb of darkness and returned fire with more powerful lightning that blew Vorahk-Kah away into space.

Much later, Genetoes was being followed around by TBS, much to his chagrin. Genetoes teleported next to Blackout and attempted to ask the Makuta whether he wanted to ally himself with Eclipse, the "bringer of darkness", but it wasn't long before Genetoes gave up and teleported to Yon's location instead. After Nosmilo was teleported next to Genetoes and TBS, Genetoes took a moment to rant about how TBS was "getting in his way all the time", at which point Chikato appeared and punted Genetoes with such force that he was sent hurtling towards a star.

Genetoes and Eclipse worked together to attack Nosmilo on Lotcas. Genetoes teleported in front of Nosmilo and kicked him in the head before Eclipse followed up with a punch that sent the poor Time Guardian flying five miles away. Though Nosmilo reappeared and launched a fireball at Genetoes, the Kra'lythe simply summoned a dark wind that blew the fire back into Nosmilo's face. Genetoes then whacked Nosmilo in the neck before he could recover and tried to drown his enemy in liquid darkness, but he was interrupted by Advanced Dal, who kicked Genetoes aside and slashed at him with his blade arm. Genetoes dodged the attack and tore off Advanced Dal's head in response, which he hurled ten miles away. However, Advanced Dal's head flew back and collided with Genetoes with equal force before reattaching itself to the robot's shoulders. Genetoes summoned Eclipse as backup, who crushed Advanced Dal into a 'fine mist', but not finely enough to destroy the nanobots that constituted Advanced Dal, who was able to reform himself within moments. Advanced Dal then split into two smaller robots named Tan and Log, who advanced towards Genetoes menacingly. Genetoes responded by infecting the robots with dark matter and sending them to attack the brain of Vorahk-Kah, who had since grown to immense size by absorbing the energies of an entire nebula.

At some point, Genetoes confronted Nosmilo again and successfully killed him this time.

Much later, Genetoes appeared next to 553 and smashed one of the zombies that were threatening the Toa in the head with an orb of liquid darkness. Genetoes told 553 that he needed to stick with him if he wanted to survive. Genetoes then dodged some blasts and attacked Kakamu, at which point Lite appeared and engaged Genetoes in combat. In the battle that followed, Kakamu stabbed the floor, thereby creating a wave of energy that launched Genetoes into the air.

Genetoes later appeared somewhere else and tried to attack Blackout, but was promptly sucked into a vortex by TBS.

During the Battle of Lantea, Genetoes appeared between Darkmount and the Wigwam and fired liquid darkness at both spaceships. After TBS appeared and blocked one of the blasts, Genetoes fled the scene.

A Bitter Reunion
In 150,081 CMT, Genetoes floated in space as he contemplated what to do with his relative freedom while Eclipse was away. Deciding upon some "pointless killing and horror", Genetoes enveloped himself in a comet of liquid darkness and shot off towards the Vesica Piscis. However, Genetoes's journey was interrupted by the sudden appearance of Quolas, who warned Genetoes that he had become a threat to time itself and ordered him to surrender his powers. In response, Genetoes simply laughed and explained that because Eclipse was in a 'full eclipse', a state of hibernation, he was free to do as he pleased and would not hesitate to kill Quolas if he continued to stand in his way. Quolas replied that he had abandoned Eclipse some time ago in favor of a new master, TBS, who had driven all of the darkness from his body and had replaced it with elemental ice powers that he now used to correct aberrations such as Genetoes himself. Genetoes reacted to the threat by kicking Quolas in the gut and hurling an orb of liquid darkness at his face, but Quolas froze the orb with his ice powers and smashed it over Genetoes's head, following up his attack with multiple ice blasts. Genetoes dodged the ice blasts and unsheathed a dark purple sword that he swung at Quolas, only for Quolas to parry with his own sword to remind Genetoes that they had received the same training.

Genetoes kicked Quolas in the face, but he quickly regained his balance and encased the upper half of Genetoes's body in ice. However, Genetoes shattered the ice with ease and threw Quolas into an asteroid, gloating that he would not spare a fool who had turned down the "glory of Eclipse". Quolas responded by uppercutting Genetoes and kicking him in the crotch multiple times. It is unknown whether Genetoes or Quolas won the duel, but Quolas later admitted that Genetoes had almost succeeded in killing him.

The Dying of the Light
In Chapter 10 of The Mazkertis Paradox, it was revealed why Genetoes and his allies had been missing for so long. In 150,082 CMT, Genetoes had discovered the existence of the Knowledge Dimension when he travelled there through a crack in time. During his stay in the dimension, he discovered many things, such as the fact that Eclipse and the Living Stars had the hidden ability to absorb other Living Stars to increase their power. He also discovered the location of the Forest of Lights and that all Living Stars possessed the means to travel between universes - they were just not aware of it. Genetoes took this information to Eclipse, who decided to test the theory that he could absorb other Living Stars by attacking the Forest of Lights and attempting to absorb their leader, Sun.

In the battle that followed, Genetoes took command of the Kra'lythe armies and led the charge on the unsuspecting Sha'lythe warriors who were present in the Forest of Lights at the time. Genetoes killed several Sha'lythe and tackled Cithus when he saw him charge at Eclipse, engaging the lightning-wielding Sha'lythe in a one-on-one duel. This duel was interrupted when Cithus's master, Vrentus, launched a telepathic assault on Genetoes's mind to determine how the Kra'lythe had learned the location of the Forest of Lights. Unable to resist Vrentus's mental strength, Genetoes was forced to reveal that he had accessed the Knowledge Dimension and learned that the Living Stars had the innate ability to absorb others of their species and travel to other universes in the BZPB Multiverse. Just as Vrentus exited Genetoes's mind, he was hit with a blast of shadow energy fired by an enemy combatant, which caused him to let go of Genetoes. Genetoes took the opportunity to escape through a portal to live to fight another day.

The Mazkertis Paradox
Genetoes returned to the universe on Day 4 of The Mazkertis Paradox arc. He found Eclipse, who was floating through the Original Universe in a state of hibernation following an unknown conflict that had damaged the cohesion of his form. He used some kind of magical lighter to reignite Eclipse's aura, which violently awoke him from his slumber. Genetoes welcomed his master back to the universe and told him that he had awakened him because they were both "needed again".

On Day 8, Mazkertis used a technique that he had read in Quolas's mind to summon Genetoes. Genetoes and Eclipse agreed to ally themselves with Mazkertis to spite the Time Guardians and to have a hand in creating Mazkertis's new timeline.

On Day 11, Genetoes and Eclipse met with Mazkertis on Kalta Thaea along with several other characters who were interested in learning about Mazkertis's crusade. During the meeting, Genetoes reiterated that he and Eclipse would stand with Mazkertis. Genetoes, Eclipse, and the other characters who chose to join Mazkertis (Gabriel Ascheron, Blue, Mink, Raziel, and the Green Goblin) then became part of his new brotherhood: the Kindred of Dawn.

Genetoes stayed on Kalta Thaea overnight with his newfound teammates while they waited for the final guest, Lord Zrintch, to arrive. Genetoes bickered with the Green Goblin about something just before Zrintch arrived.

Later, Genetoes discovered an ancient but high-tech fortress that was partially hidden underground near the Kindred's meeting place on Kalta Thaea. When he and the Kindred ventured into it, they discovered that it was built by an ancient civilization that existed on the planet over 100,000 years ago. After disposing of the mummified alien skeletons left in the base, the Kindred decided to adopt it as their headquarters.

On Day 55, Genetoes
