Krienulokuun

Krienulokuun/Krien the Phoenix is the familiar of Annalyse Steelfang. He is an extremely powerful supernatural entity that exceeds many other divine beings in terms of raw power. Krien is known as the most powerful of all the familiars that serve the Steelfang Family.

In The New Kingdoms, Krien was summoned by Anna via fusing a wandering spirit and a golden eagle, granting said eagle great intelligence and powers. Therefore, out of gratitude, he served Annalyse as a familiar.

In Cosmic Legacy, Krien is a powerful spirit bound by contract to defend Anna, provided to her by her father Raydin, originally to Anna's mortal mother. His origin is therefore different.

The New Kingdoms
Krien was originally a golden eagle that was found by Annalyse. She took pity on the creature and decided to heal him with her powers. Realizing that the bird was at death's door, Anna used spirit summoning and fused a powerful natural spirit she had unknowingly summoned with the bird, replacing its soul but giving it the ability to recover.

Krien's full name means "Sun Emperor" in dragon and was given by Annalyse due to the photokinetic powers she modified into the bird. As Annalyse created her familiar from fusing a spirit and an injured eagle, Krien was more intelligent than most humans and possessed incredible magic that even humans could not master.

Ever since that day, Krien served under Annalyse as her familiar, protecting her and helping her in her times of need.

Krienulokuun looks like a golden eagle, but his head is surrounded by a corona of solar flame and the feathers on his wings and tail trail golden fire. He leaves a glowing trail was he flies. His claws are nearly pure energy and glow brightly in the dark. He can also appear as a glowing ball of light when in ethereal form.

Krienulokuun is capable of performing many light related powers, like his master. His claws possess extreme photokinetic power and can easily penetrate and crush daedric armor, setting his target on fire at the same time. He can briefly convert himself into light to strike an enemy instantly, shredding their armor and creating an explosion of light. He can fire beams of light out of his mouth and create light explosions centered on him. Finally, he can project a light shield around himself or others.

Krienulokuun possess extreme flying speeds, a psionic link to Annalyse and is ethereal so long as he is not attacking or using his powers. He can act as an artificial sun in ethereal form at night to help Annalyse retain her nature based powers and recharge them, but this will prevent him from attacking enemies or defending Annalyse.

Krienulokuun does not need to eat or drink as he is partially a spirit familiar due to the alterations to his biology. Annalyse and Krienulokuun share a magicka pool that is very, very large, allowing Krienulokuun to draw magicka from Annalyse if his own already large supply runs out and his regeneration is unable to provide the magicka and vice versa. Annalyse can also learn any knowledge the bird sees, but not the other way around, making him a useful scouting tool.

Kreinulokuun can be transformed into a dragon, which massively increases his power levels, at the cost of depleting Annalyse's massive magicka reserves. This is normally not an issue, though, since Annalyse and Krienulokuun's combined magicka reserves are immense.

Krienulokuun can also take on the forms of other living beings if it suits him. In fact, he seems more to be a very powerful spirit bound to take a golden eagle form as his normal form, when Annalyse "summoned" him into golden eagle's body. As such, Krienulokuun does have a black soul, and his true form is actually unknown.

If Krienulokuun is destroyed, Annalyse can recreate him using magicka to hasten his reformation. If not, he will revive within a week or earlier, depending on how much of his body was destroyed. Krienulokuun's body is invincible, except to high level cosmic magic (such as the magicka flares of the Steelfangs), and thus he can shield Annalyse physically if their magicka is depleted.

''It was meant to be revealed in Datadragon Odahviing's story Ascendant Angel that Krienulokuun's true form is that of a Breton youth, with wings made of pure light, much like his Steelfang masters. In this true form, Krienulokuun's powers far exceed what he is capable of doing as either Dragon or Eagle - he has almost full control over the whole electromagnetic spectrum, gravity manipulation and control of soul burning sacred fire. He would also have possessed the Steelfang forged blade "Starsong", and served Empress Isis/Eris as one of her greatest warriors, wiped of his memories.''
