Etende Rhaloff is a human inventor-turned-adventurer on the planet Rhadan.

Biography[edit | edit source]

Born and raised next to a scrapyard, Etende grew up as a mechanic in a family of mechanics. However, her technological skill far outshone those of her siblings, to the point where she was inventing new machines to take over household chores at an early age. Although she likes to design machines for her friends, she rarely uses any herself, with the exception of one. Her pride and joy is a homemade wingsuit that she recently constructed from material scavenged from a fallen airship.

Etende speaks quickly in a strong Valdajoan accent that can be difficult to understand at first, but fortunately it is easy to get used to. She has a fiery temper, having little patience for clumsy people who get in the way of her work (or teleported her into the middle of the desert). She is currently studying advanced mechanical engineering at an academy in Valdajoa with her friends Kensa and Jarvis. She is often frustrated by Kensa's carelessness, but she still finds him and Jarvis endearing enough to want to hang around.

History[edit | edit source]

Etende was born to Darren & Kath Rhaloff on the planet Rhadan. She grew up in Valdajoa and her education led her into an advanced mechanical engineering course at one of the cities' academies. There she met two other gifted inventors, Kensa and Jarvis. During one summer break, the three of them started working on inventions to show off to each other. Etende's was a wingsuit that she quickly fell in love with. Kensa's was a modified escape pod with a teleportation function that he offered to demonstrate to the group. The trio climbed inside the escape pod and its creator hit the teleport function, intending for them to be transported to the outskirts of the city. However, this was not the case. When they emerged from the escape pod, they found themselves in the middle of the Rhadanian desert.

Etende was absolutely furious at Kensa's miscalculation, so she took off in her wingsuit to clear her head and scout the area. While she was away, her friends were offered a lift by Jubei, and graciously accepted. Etende flew around for about half an hour until a sandstorm started brewing on the horizon, so she was forced to locate Jubei's ship, which she demanded to be let into. Despite her initial rudeness, Jubei allowed her in and made her some tea. With some persuasion, she agreed to travel to a mysterious place called the Anemos Sanctum... but we don't know what happens next, because alas, Heat the Soul was cancelled at this point.

Abilities & Powers[edit | edit source]

Being a natural-born human being, Etende has no natural powers of her own, unless you count her technological prowess and ability to drink heavily without passing out. However, thanks to the capabilities of her suit, she has the ability to fly.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • This version of Etende was the one that appeared in the BZPB spin-off RPG Heat the Soul, set in an alternate universe named the Soulverse. After Heat the Soul's death, Kon decided to make another version of Etende in the Original Universe so that he could continue using the character. One difference in their shared history is that OU Etende grew up in a village, whereas HTS Etende grew up in a large city named Valdajoa.
