Backstory:
After sacrificing Ddraig to permanently seal Trihexa, Issei is left drained and mortal.
Not long after, he discovers that his entire harem betrayed him, cheating on him with other men in their circle.
The emotional collapse triggers the Dragon Fall, a fatal condition that destroys dragons through overwhelming grief.
Refusing to die, Issei removes his emotions through sheer force of will, using a method inspired by advanced Predator neural tech he observed in battle. He locks his emotions away, but designs the process to be reversible through rare stimuli or mental triggers.
This cures his Dragon Fall—not with external tech, but through complete internal transformation.

Ambush and the Dark Blade Clan
While wandering, Issei is ambushed by rogue Bad Blood Predators, who have stolen advanced clan war tech—gear that should never have been outside a Predator civil war.
Though injured, exhausted, and unarmed, Issei slaughters them all with his bare hands, using strategy, terrain manipulation, and overwhelming martial prowess.
This act attracts the attention of the Dark Blade Clan, one of the most feared and technologically advanced Predator clans, known for their brutal hunts and cold precision.

The Dark Blade Clan's Decision
Expecting a kill or capture, the Dark Blade Clan instead watches and evaluates Issei.
His lack of emotion, total focus, and brutal efficiency, along with his ability to outthink and destroy warriors wielding advanced tech, earns their respect.
They take him in, not as prey or trophy, but as a warrior worthy of their ranks.
He is given the chance to earn his place through trial and blood, and he succeeds.

Transformation Under the Clan
Training & Modification:
Issei undergoes the brutal rites of the Dark Blade Clan:
Predator martial combat and stealth.
Advanced technology training (plasma scythes, cloak tech, wrist blades, bio-masks).
Biotech-enhanced endurance, bone density, and reflex enhancement.
He develops a custom armor system using living biomechanical materials—part dragon, part Predator tech, responsive to his bloodline and combat needs.
Cybernetic Enhancements:
His eyes are rebuilt to aid in battlefield analysis and tracking:
Sclera: Pitch black.
Iris: Blood red.
Pupil: A four-pointed star, rotating subtly based on his emotional state and threat assessment.
These eyes allow him to see cloaked targets, read thermal shifts, and analyze structural weaknesses in real time.
---
Mental State
With his emotions sealed, Issei operates as a near-machine:
Cold, focused, and inhumanly calm.
Lacking any emotional hesitation or bias.
Still retains the capacity for empathy, love, rage, etc., but only if unlocked via specific internal conditions or memories.
---
Appearance
Heightened and more muscular, with an intimidating, predatory stance.
Skin etched with faint Yautja runes and draconic scars that pulse when hunting.
Armor is chromatic black, lined with crimson adaptive tech and semi-living material that reshapes around wounds or new gear.
Eyes are pitch black with blood-red irises and four-pointed star pupils that glow faintly in the dark.
His weapons—wrist blades, combi-spear, and a retractable plasma cleaver—are modified to respond to his commands mentally.
---
Role in the Clan
Issei is named "The Black Star Fang", a title reserved for non-Yautja beings who embody the absolute apex of survival and combat.
Used as a lone hunter, scout, and assassin—able to go where even Yautja would struggle to survive.
Stories about him spread among other Predator clans, not as myth, but as proof that even the broken can become unstoppable.
