Raico (RAI'koh)
Raico
Raico himself does not know much about his early life or have many thoughts concerning how he came to be, but his handlers know much more. Due to the Ilyannoi used by the Eoion Empire in several wars, the Daji attempted to create something of their own. Richard Lohdan in particular was the head of the project and through a combination of reverse engineering and trail and error managed to produce something similar to an Ilyannoi creature. This project was entitled the Retrieval and Incapacitation Capture Offensive (or RAICO). The resulting creature instructed in hunting from the moment he could walk and treated as a cross between a high caliber weapon and a basic hunting dog. At first, he was difficult to train and would often attack those who tried to bring him to heel. However, through a combination of reward and pain, he was taught to hunt like a proper dog. His intelligence is not very high, but he is capable of some independent thought and defiance. He considers Richard to be the ultimate authority on everything and does not resist anything the man does, including intimate actions that he does not completely understand. His knowledge of Voltaire is very limited, mostly to just the idea that there was a creature before him and that he ran away.
