Him

He is the last and the most resilient cosmic parasite of this universe, living off the energy generated by Coldworro's half-dead inhabitants. In the very beginning, there were millions of his race. They were one of the oldest civilisations, and they survived that way only because they were so incredibly clever. They had kept to the shadows for so many generations, the youngest 'reed' (their word for children) born with upside-down facial features. They believed that the expression of emotion was a private thing, and that to break that rule would be similar to exposing themselves naked.

Although he is essentially genderless, he is referred to as 'he' or 'Him.'
