General Info

Ket is my persona; my avatar if you will. He is the character I created to represent my personal goals and desires. The name of his species is Achelthym. While the design is turtle-inspired, this species is warm-blooded and has many mammalian features. Ket is an explorer/adventurer with some dabbling in alchemy. For now, I will say his age is 25.

Origins

Around 2003, I decided to create a character to represent myself. I enjoyed the design of Koopas and thought a turtle-based character would be appropriate for my personality. The name “Ket” came from the acronym for “Kinmotsu’s Erotic Turtle”. Despite my influences, I’ve always aimed for a unique design. While Ket simply resembled a Koopa Troopa at his inception, his design has evolved over the years. In 2009, I finally took the time to engineer a comprehensive design with which I was comfortable; a happy medium of various influences and original ideas. A finished version of this currently serves as the official reference.
