"The true measure of progress lies not in what we create, but in how we nurture what we've created to grow beyond our own limitations." — Final words to the First Gathering of Neophites
*"It is now that I see… the potential for life and growth. Within all of you. Go. Seek peace, knowledge and, understanding...” ***— Her vision for the Aanuh Ka'ri before their exodus

M'jiraix Anqex, also known as The Exile, was the inventor of Cybernetic Energy Reactors (CER0s) who arrived on Earth more than three centuries ago. Fleeing from those who sought to misuse her groundbreaking technology, she crash-landed on Earth, forever changing the course of human history.
As Krul M'jiraix, she was initially cold, calculating, and driven by results. Her early work with the Aanuh Ka'ri reflected the rigid Akrulan societal structure. She showed little concern for the wellbeing of others, particularly the Aanuh Ka'ri, whom she viewed as expendable tools. Her research logs from this period demonstrate a cold detachment towards their suffering, often documenting failed experiments and terminations with clinical precision rather than empathy.
The Exile’s perspective evolved through her interactions with Zah'ra. Her initial attempts to eliminate Zah'ra's emotional traits proved frustrating, as these characteristics persisted despite her efforts to study and correct what she viewed as anomalies. However, as she spent more time with Zah'ra, particularly observing her secret studies of the laboratory experiments and her surprising grasp of complex scientific concepts, the Exile's scientific interest gradually transformed into genuine care and affection. This personal connection would become the catalyst for her broader transformation, leading her to recognize the potential for emotional depth and individual growth in all her creations.
This shift in worldview eventually put her at odds with Akrulan society, transforming her from a revered scientist into someone viewed with suspicion and contempt by her own people. Despite facing backlash for prioritizing the welfare of her creations over Akrulan ambitions, she remained steadfast in her convictions, ultimately choosing exile over allowing her technology to be misused.
Born on Akrul, M'jiraix Anqex was initially a revered scientist and inventor under the wing of Sa’vaj, a general at the time. She specialized in bioengineering, physics, and technology, working to create weapons and tools to assist with Legion’s expansionist goals and solve their natural crises. She created the Aanuh Ka'ri as part of her research into matter and energy manipulation over 550 years ago an designed them as subservient beings capable of adapting to various environments and performing complex tasks.
Her perspective underwent a profound change after developing a unique bond with one particular Aanuh Ka'ri whom she named Zah'ra. Seeing Zah'ra's capacity for emotional connection and intellectual growth, the Exile began viewing her as a surrogate daughter. This relationship led her to encourage all Aanuh Ka'ri to seek freedom and establish their own identity away from Akrul.
Over three centuries ago, she invented the groundbreaking Cybernetic Energy Reactors (CER0s) on Akrul. However, fearing the misuse of this powerful technology, she was forced to flee when the leaders of her people sought to use CER0s to dominate the universe. Pursued by Krul Sa'vaj and his fleet, she crash-landed on Earth in 2272. The inhabitants who discovered her provided shelter and resources, helping her acclimate to Earth. As trust grew between them, she chose to share her knowledge of CER0 technology. This decision fundamentally changed human civilization, enabling advancements like faster-than-light travel, energy shields, and artificial gravity systems for interstellar exploration.
Her arrival catalyzed the transformation of the United Interstellar Foundation into VISION, marking a pivotal shift in interstellar relations. Her legacy endures most prominently through the Aanuh Ka'ri civilization she created, particularly in their home of Neophis - a specialized artificial planetary structure completed in 2401 under the leadership of her daughter Zah'ra, who went on to establish the Order of the Archives dedicated to preserving universal knowledge.
As an Akrulan, she possessed enhanced physical capabilities, including superior strength and the ability to use four arms simultaneously with exceptional dexterity. She had adapted vision allowing for excellent depth perception and the ability to track multiple targets, particularly useful in low-light conditions. Her tough, hide-like skin created a natural resilience to harsh environments.
The Exile possessed remarkable scientific and engineering abilities that allowed her to create groundbreaking technologies. Her most significant achievements include:
