Klynoks

Sentient humanoids from Affril, Plane of Knowledge, Klynoks are recordkeepers of history across all the planes.

They are users of purplestone and riders of Giant Bats.

You do, however, catch a glimpse of the world beyond the rift. A whole civilization of crystalfaced people live atop purplestone archways over an endless gray sea. - Eye of Ulos (RPA-ADV4)

Notable Characters

  • Qualzar

Society

Klynoks faces are comprised of a single pink crystal, and their bodies a black rubber-like material.

They lack a skeleton, or internal organs. The entirety of their physical form is given life and controlled by their face crystal.

It is known that their face crystals will modulate in hue to reflect their current mood, e.g. turn red when angered.


Culture

Klynoks are first and foremost cataloguers and historians by nature, living knowledge-centric lives.

Klynoks have built entire civilizations on the purplestone archways of Affril.

Their offspring grows on trees with prickly trunks. Infant crystals are called “flakes”.

Their staffs are made of purplestone, and can be used as a weapon, crackling with energy when ready for use.


Relations

The Demon Elsifor claims that Klynoks have no personality;

Did you know your king put a lot of effort into getting to know the Klynoks? Not an investment I’d care to make myself. They’re a hive mind, you see. Lots of creatures but only one brain. No personality at all.” - Elsifor, Gate of Brizoor Waal (RPA-ADVF)

Winged Escape - Deathmatch at the Colosseum of Ashes (RPA-TE)

Two Klynoks are brought to the Colosseum of Ashes, and their Giant Bat is startled by the new surroundings:

  • Rein in the mount:
    • You restrain the Giant Bat long enough for its owners to calm it down and return home.
    • It takes flight and vanishes off into the sky, leaving the Klynoks to return empty-handed.
  • Eliminate the Klynoks while they are distracted:
    • They fall to your blade easily and the Giant Bat flies off into the distance.
    • One holds you down while the other reins in their mount, the three returning home.

Your standing with the Klynoks will be influenced by how you handle this situation.
