Byror'tekta is a Hyot'tohr male standing at seven feet tall. His skin has a reddish-brown hue with a rough, craggy texture reminiscent of the volcanic landscapes of Vulcan. He carries a mechanical staff that helps him channel his abilities. The staff is crafted from a black stone and adorned with gemstones.
He wears typical Hyot'tohr attire—a simple, draping robe with soft teal and grays. Byror'tekta has two sharp protrusions on his upper back that often prevent him from wearing other clothes or protective gear.
Byror'tekta embodies the patient and contemplative traits common to the Hyot'tohr race. Despite his towering, rock-like frame, he is shy and easily frightened. Byror'tekta is particularly sensitive to loud noises, often causing him to instinctively create small protective barriers of stone around himself when startled. He is comforted by the sounds and solitude of nature. Though equipped with a language translator, he prefers to communicate through simple hand gestures and grunts, finding this more natural to his way of being.
Byror’tekta belies a strong sense of justice and determination. He demonstrates remarkable courage and dedication in defending natural habitats, often putting himself between threats and the environments he's sworn to protect. He is known for his continued involvement in joint conservation efforts between Flō and VISION. Through his actions and gentle demeanor, he has become a respected figure among conservationists.
Byror'tekta was born in an underground colony on Vulcan to Adoran'ok. His father witnessed firsthand the devastating impact of resource exploitation during the Battle for Vulcan and instilled in Byror'tekta a deep respect for the environment from an early age. Following in his father's footsteps, Byror'tek studied environmental conservation and the impact of planetary exploitation. Growing up on Vulcan, a planet characterized by harsh volcanic activity and a toxic atmosphere, gave him insights into surviving and protecting life in extreme conditions. He would later travel to Tempus to join Flō, where he could actively contribute to protecting and preserving diverse ecosystems throughout the galaxy.
