Kiren the Black

Kiren the Black, one of the first and most loyal comrades to join Xiten’s revolution, remains a formidable and enigmatic figure in the kingdom of Solaris. Known for his unmatched strength and haunting presence on the battlefield, few know the truth behind his origin — that he is not born, but crafted.

Kiren is, in truth, a clone of Xiten The Red, a living echo conjured through the shadowy ambitions of King Cypress Golden-Eye during the dark experiments leading up to the revolution. Meant to serve as a puppet or perhaps a replacement for Xiten himself, Kiren was discovered by his original in the early stages of Cypress’s unraveling plot. But instead of destroying him, Xiten saw in Kiren not a mistake — but a brother.

Embracing his own autonomy, Kiren joined Xiten's cause with unwavering loyalty, bound not by blood, but by purpose. To protect the revolution’s early secrecy and avoid inciting panic among the people, Kiren took on the persona of the ancient warlord Mahz-Tul, a mythical and feared figure from Solaris’s history. Cloaked in this fearsome identity, he struck terror into the hearts of Cypress’s forces while concealing the disturbing truth of his existence.

Now, long after the revolution’s victory, Kiren still walks the halls of power in Solaris — no longer masked, but no less mysterious. Though he rarely speaks of his origin, he stands as living proof that identity is not dictated by creation, but by choice. His loyalty to Xiten is absolute, and his presence on the Solarian stage continues to command respect, fear, and reverence.
