Lone

Lone or Lone's are bio-engineered metaphysics beings who were either subjected to torturous alteration in adulthood within the Coalition or created through risky DNA modifications from birth. Lone is derived from the mythical creature who was capable of merging different worlds to mortals in order for them to explore a multitude of aspects of their fates. If the mortal decides to choose on of these options of these worlds, they were granted their wish. The mythical creature is often depicted in murals as being a neutral entity whose face is often merged with faces of the mortals, creating the illusion of itself being mortal.

History
After the Glass War, the Coalition was eager in creating new and more dangerous weapons. However, in order to avoid breaking the Treaty of Junrus, the Coalition was explicit that the weapons had to be more organ than technical. This involved in them exploiting biological fusion experiments. This included infusing several types of flora into weapons to make it more lethal. One such experiment that was explored but later abandoned was connecting the mind of a person with the root of a plant. The theory behind it was that plants send signals through roots, including messages. However the experiment failed when the person operated on died.

In the saeculums prior to the outbreak of the Kigbaas War, the Coalition decided to bring back that experiment in a endeavor to begin espionage and tracking operations within the Kingdom of Hvaas. A scientist by the name of Okark devised a way where it would be possible to implant the root within the brain of a individual without costly operation in dissecting the brain itself. Each of the species of plant that was used, failed in offering proper results. Okark finally decided to use the more dangerous plant that was not considered, purely because of the toxins that would be released when agitated.

During the operation to insert the plants roots into the brain, the roots took immediate hold into the tissue and began releasing toxins directly into the brain. Fearing that the person would die, surgeons attempted to the remove the roots. Okark stepped in and stopped it from happening. Vital signs were critical in the next hour and surgeons feared that their attempt to save the patient would go in vain.

What happened next, Okark could only explain it as seeing ghosts within the surgical room. The same patient was seen standing inside the room, looking bewildered by what was going on. Then another apparition of the patient appeared, then another. Okark, stunned, attempted to make communication with them before these beings disappeared and the patient dying.

Driven by curiosity, Okark continued his exploration into what kind of toxins were inside the plant. He concluded his report to military intelligence that the root contained faint traces of particles only theorized by the Guild of Physics. These particles disappeared, then re-appeared in the same spot, suggesting that their flickering resulting in going somewhere else other than this plane of existence.

Intrigued by the experiments, funding was flooded into his project. Okark continued his exploration of this plant. His first problem was to remove the capacity of the plant to produce and release the toxins, which required him employing a variety of specialists who could engineer the plant to cease the toxins. Once this was completed, he proceeded in fusing the plant with a volunteer. The first volunteer died when Okark forgot that without the toxins, the plant turned to robbing the volunteer of valued nutrients, causing a seizure and killing the volunteer. The second volunteer whose name remains classified, is the first successful volunteer to the project.

The Kingdom of Hvaas has given the label of the second volunteer, the "Nuum Lone" or the "Divine Lone".

The Nuum Lone was beginning to show the benefits of having a successful fusion of the plant. He was able to see other versions of himself who also saw him. Unsure what to make of it, his versions began asking questions as to why they are able to see him. Okark intervened to explain that they exist in their plane, much to their confusion. The Nuum Lone however began to experience a distaste and distrust of seeing other versions of himself, with an incident involving him killing another version out of frustration with him. When he did this, the Nuum Lone suddenly incorporated his strength and knowledge. Alarmed by this, Okark attempted to reason with the Nuum that this was dangerous. The Nuum ignored Okark and followed it by bringing other versions and killed them all. The strength that the Nuum now had was greater than even the strongest of man within the Coalition.

Fearing that the Nuum would eventually break away, Okark gave permission for his death. Records and information of how he died are missing.
