Humbled, was the word to describe the towering Krogan known as Codename Noxx. Repeatedly humbled upon his expectations of how truly different the galaxy was outside of his cage. The louder Krogan had snarled at his approach, then after his words meant to distill aggression in his brother it only seemed to aggravate the situation. The loud one began reaching for his weapon, Noxx's fingers twitched in reaction, but before the situation climaxed another distraction pulled the loud one's attentions away, yet again. The cause of which looked to be anomalous human female. Anomalous for the fact her size was greater then most human Male Noxx had encountered. Yet, the tall Krogan squinted inquisitively at the new comer, she appeared fully female. She extended her hand and the loud one proclaimed, 'Akoraan'. His name? Loud one was known as Akoraan. Noxx raised a finger, the intention of which was to ask the human if her mother had been experimented on as his had been before his birth, but other Krogan spoke first.<br/><br/>“Think we can teach him that going in bare chest makes you end up dead?”<span style="color: Red">Akoraan </span>chuckled.<br/><br/>The mountain of a Krogan glanced down at himself. His chest and belly scales were colored a deep gold, framed by scales of black that started at his ribs and grew out from his back to shape his spiky hump. His chest, although bare, was covered in scars. Ranging from animal like claw marks that raked from shoulder to hip, to diamond shaped incisions that told of knife or spear wounds, and even the shattered webbing of a plasma burn just above his left pectoral. If anything Noxx knew exactly what fighting with a bare chest held and the pain that came along with it. His torso was naked, that told true, but starting at his forearms and extending to his hands were heavy mechanical gauntlets. They looked to be powered and not simply armored for the sake of armor. Next were the Krogans hips and legs. Alongside the numerous sheathed blades that hung from his hips were several blinking power packs, some of which were obvious personal shield generators while the remaining looked to be connected the armor system covering his legs. The leg armor looked to both frame and support, possibly enhancing ones ability to lift great weight, or even jump or sprint with more explosiveness.<br/><br/>The Krogan Akoraan had deemed a female suddenly approached with a small squad of mercenaries at her flanks. With 'her' was a Turian, odd clan markings on his face, he looked fragile but Noxx knew that looks were often deceptive. A wiry build, he would utilize mobility and speed in close quarters. Next to him, but hiding behind the 'female' was an Asari. She seemed to shy aware from Noxx when he peered over the 'female' Krogan at her. Unlike the Turian her face was free of markings but at the same time,  like her ally, she was also thin and frail, but her look did not seem deceptive of her actual abilities. A white jacket covered much of her. She smelt familiar, like the medics in the fighting pits that would visit after every bout. Next to the Asari was another human female as different from the larger human female as Noxx was from the loud Krogan. Beneath the caked on dirt her face depicted a youthfullness if compared to the other human. She was by far the shortest in her group and her smell matched the machines that buzzed about the warehouse.<br/><br/>The exchange between Akoraan and the 'female' was becoming heated. Noxx's attention snapped back to present when suddenly the Turian in the group slid between the pair and inserted his own taunts. This tiny varren likes to bark loud as well, Noxx thought while lowering himself to eye level with the Turian and regarding him with a curious indifference. The Turian's eyes were a bright blue, intelligent, speculative, his taunting act was likely meant to cement ties of loyalty to his group. Smart move.<br/><br/>Standing at full height once again Noxx's curiosity finally pulled him to the Krogan that was repeatedly being referred to as female. Never had Noxx seen one. In the fighting pits of Azr'lor he had seen and killed many races, many genders, and even rare animals that most of the galaxy had never heard of, but never a female Krogan. Was his loud brother correct? Noxx took a step closer to the female, being sure not to come between Akoraan and the snappy Turian. With his orange and black snout just inches away from the females face he sniffed.<br/><br/>The female cringed, curling her lip in revulsion and placed a hand on Noxx's forehead pushing him several steps back.<span style="color: DarkOrchid">"Down boy."</span><br/><br/>Noxx blinked. She smelled different. Perhaps she was a female after all.<br/><br/><span style="color: DeepSkyBlue">"QUITE!"</span><br/><br/>Noxx turned. Gavin was speaking again. Something he said suddenly caused a stir and a great rush of bodies began flooding from the warehouse. The Krogan turned back to face the group. The large human female was moving with the rest of the mercenaries. She called back something to Akoraan which caused Noxx to cant his head to the side in wonder, "Quadnuts? I thought you were<span style="color: Red">Akoraan</span>?"<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
