"I thought gods, demons, dragons, they were all myths and fairy tales. Now I sit upon my throne of marble and slate, thinking of who I once was and what I've become."

Captain PiK, originally named as "P4-NF" was a newly recruited commander in the Mimin Armada. Born and raised fully in the confines of the mothership as he was raised from birth to be an officer in the Armada thanks to his mother's previous position. Their species known as the "Mimins" were entirely stuck in a brand-new universe as things were getting desperate. The Mimin Armada has always been a group of pirates and raiders, but the land below was extremely hostile. As a new recruit it was his job alone to bring them salvation, however, something went horribly wrong. His ship crashed, the crew was mostly slain, and he was found by the Fruit Kobolds as they dragged them back to their basecamp. He would meet with their leadaer, Ayvil and the two would strike a deal. With his alien technology he would help arm her soldiers and her colony would keep them safe from the horrors of the realm. If he refused, he would be sent back into the wild where they wouldn't even survive the night.

The deal was struck and Captain PiK with the help of the Armada would be able to arm the Fruit Kobolds with weaponry and armor. Ayvil of course took this advantage to fight against the Stars while she could, as Captain PiK would continue with the colonization project. Also, during this time, he would meet many different people of this realm such as Hunter Star, Caroline, Bud, and a few others he would call commanders. He would also go as far to unite a few goblin clans to stop infighting as they fall under his own banner. As time went on though however, the Mimin Armada would decide to betray the Fruit Kobolds as soon as they got a more solid footing. "Canning" factories were made, the land was being ravaged, and Captain PiK with the help of Ayvil would fight back against their oppressors. However, Captain PiK would be killed in the process.

In his death he would strike a deal with the pillar of death, UBiL, to return and take the throne of being a god. That he would become Overlord to the Fruit Kobolds and wage war against the Mimins. He would rise from the grave as a Copper Fruit Kobold. reborn and transformed and claim his throne of godhood. When one war would end, another would begin, and there would be more people caught in the chaos. He won the war against the Mimins, and as he founded Bayshore and tried to usher in a new peace... Another war would begin. One against the Stars, one against Angel-Tech, and even against the Council of Colored Gods. He at one point even dated Ayvil, and then would lose her through his own decaying madness... Although, he never lost hope no matter how grim the situation became.

Even with the bad cards he was dealt, and those he lost still haunt him. He still has a much more joyful exterior and tries his best to put a smile on his face. He is prideful and is someone who is still very playful in nature. His relationship status is a bit of a mess, but he still does his best to be a loving partner. He is inevitably flawed, and he is personally okay with that. Ever prideful as he is the god of the kobolds themselves, a curious being too. He just hopes he can continue to be a good example for the future generations to come.

Despite being a god? He still somehow manages to run a circus as a side gig as he finds it to be quite the hobby. His mother and father are still around, and he still has a good head on his shoulders. He just hopes his castle doesn't come crumbling down around him.

Box one: "Captain PiK usually has a battle standard that he can cast amplified spells from. This same battle standard can also transform into different weapons. Most common of these are a scythe or even a shotgun. It depends on what is needed, but that battle standard is no slouch!"

Box two: "Captain PiK has a faceless infection in his right arm, and Captain PiK loves nothing more than to play with fashion. So, on his left arm he has a dyed leather glove to try and give himself a bit of symmetry in his design. No matter what form he takes, the arm certainly stays..."

Alright, so I'm coming back with my setting stuff and coming back *HARD* fams. Captain PiK? Let me be honest with you, his reference sheet is almost over 3 years old at this point, the setting has changed massively over that time, and it needs a facelift. Like yeah this is his reference sheet, but what's more important in this is the character, the universe they live in, and how they effected it. Everything above? It kind of explains itself now doesn't it?

Until next time folks! Seeya around! Thank you for reading!

Disclaimer and Copyright: These characters involved, and the artwork belongs to me, TwistedHensley. The Skin to Scales Universe also belongs to me there, TwistedHensley... You get the drill. I want to point out that this is an Epic Dark Fantasy setting with a lot of mythological and religious tones and that there is no real-life connection to any of these events, religions, characters and it is fully, grounded, in fantasy. There is no copyright infringement also intended to other forms of media as Skin to Scales is meant to be its own thing and something I've been working on for a very long time. This is the same setting where faith is a massive part of the magic system, and it is usually meant to have a very bright and colorful art style to help balance the tone.

Other Disclaimer: You are allowed to share my artwork as long as I am credited, but do not upload it anywhere else, edit it and or mark it as your own if that wasn't common sense.

Fun Fact: I originally started working on this in December!.. and, uh- only finished it now awkwardly enough, whoops! This is what I get for sitting on my WIPS!

Fun Fact 2: He did manage to win Ayvil back after the War against the Stars arc, and Dark World when he did a lot of soul searching lmfao

Fun Fact 3: Captain PiK has had the most, and yet least number of redesigns. As everything done to him was only ever slight facelifts or costume adjustments

Fun Fact 4: The early wars of Materia does not include the War against the Dragons that the Stars had committed or King Keii's wrath.

Fun Fact 5: Sometimes Captain PiK can put on a very feminine look and go as female, but they're usually male. A perk of being a god is shapeshifting, and it is also known they do not usually ever return to the form they once were as a Mimin.
