Who is Kaelum?

Kaelum is a Mechallus in Eric's Alternity run. You can call him KLM or K, he doesn't mind.

He's a no-holds-barred merchant with the technological knowhow to back it up. Give him a rubber band, a straw, and a paper clip and make a gun out of it. Then he'll sell it at double market value. Aww yeah.

Right now Kaelum is riding the Sapphire, helping Captain Marcus pay off his father's debt. Cyrum gave them the ship, but he also gave them a 1-million+ Credit bill to pay off. Kaelum loves to swindle the swindlers though, so he gets a big kick out of watching Cyrum squirm.

Inspirations

To Kaelum, life is all about making money the most creative way possible. Understanding economics, business sense and psychology gives him the edge in business deals.

Technological developments are also important to K. He enjoys putting stuff together and letting it do the hard work for him. Plus it gives him time to think about the next big deal. KLM's perfect day involves making the right deal AND building the ubertool.

Leaving home

KLM left his home planet of aleer for two reasons. One, most aleerins hate using automata for common jobs, since poor programming can lead to disaster. K figures they need better programmers. And Two, aleerins do not like charismatic leaders. K can't boss people around, what's up with that? Kaelum left that Popsicle stand years ago.

Wuss

K isn't very healthy. The second he gets hit, he starts whining like a little bitch. Good thing Gerd can patch him up, or he'd never shut up.

Stuff he's made

Arm-mounted winch - Batwinch. He just found someone who was able to install it into his right arm. Fortified it with the strongest metals in the galaxy, too. It won't rip off his arm, YES!

Stuff he wants to make

Personal Gyrocopter - Walking is for wimps.

Stuff he wants to hack

The Sapphire's ultra-slick security system. He'll make Marcus the official captain of the ship, and K will leave a Backdoor for himself...
