Name: Kraduk Pisaj Age: Elder Gender: Male Species: Tremorian Alignment: Evil(?) Sleep Disorder: Exploding Head Syndrome Description: Kraduk Pisaj—whose name translates to "Bone Demon" in Thai—is a fearsome mercenary hailing from Dhahab, one of the continents of Nox Tremor. He is one of Direm's loyal enforcers and took part in the infamous mansion raid. Though not renowned for brute strength, Kraduk inspires terror through the use of his cursed gong. When struck, its chime induces madness in all who hear it. Victims either become devout followers of the Cumulorian Empire—or in the most tragic cases, perish entirely, as if their very souls give out. Due to years of torment from the cries of the damned in Nox Tremor, Kraduk has developed a hypersensitivity to sound. To manage this affliction, he wears special hearing aids that dull the overwhelming noise. In compensation, he relies on highly advanced vision and sensory awareness, making him both perceptive and deceptively agile. However, when exposed to loud or chaotic sounds beyond his tolerance, Kraduk enters a dangerous frenzy. His skin flushes red, his eyes glow ominously, and he loses all control—thrashing violently at anything in his path. He aligned with Direm not out of loyalty or ideology, but because they are among the few whose voices he can still clearly hear.
c2a NOTE: - He and Leoke are the quietest and shyest among the Cumulorian Empire. - He was forcibly overwhelmed with loud noises after one of Direm's mercs tampered with hearing aids in order for him to enter Frenzy Mode during the events of Resistance. - After Vitsubox, Kraduk was sentenced to a Nox Tremor Mental Hospital instead of getting arrested due to his hearing and mental problems.
