Kaelis Ra

Kaelis Ra (also Kaelis, formerly Knux Econa) is a developer for the Creatures series in a number of categories, and is particularly known as a gengineer.

History
Kaelis was once a member of a relatively sane part of the Creatures Community, known as DSBreeders.

He left soon after the fall of Creatures Labs only to return again in 2004 to find the CC had lived on, due to the purchase of the Creatures franchise by Gameware Development.

He met nornagon at this point and they became friends. nornagon introduced Kaelis to daan, and the three of them got talking about an old project that Kaelis had been a part of: Nina's Mermaid Caves. They decided to start it again, from scratch. After a while Knux, nornagon and a latin dictionary came up with a new name for the project, Aquatilis Caverna. They found others to help them in this work and through the project Kaelis met others. Two such people were Liam and Bloodluvingirl.

Sometime around this point the events that involved K9norn took place and, because of what was known as his "Witchhunt", Kaelis met and soon became friends with Vanya. Not too long after Kaelis' longtime friend Trix introduced him to Lena (now known as Natalie). The two became friends as well.

Much time had passed, the Aquatilis Caverna project had grown quite considerably and it was now only a single project in the midst of many being made by the development team known as Metacore. Kaelis was one of the two Co-Managers of Metacore. During this period, he met Edash, Moe and Aquashee. There were many talks between the three (Aquashee was at the time a part of Metacore). In fact, Kaelis made many friends as a result of Metacore.

Later, Metacore began experiencing some difficulties, as was the Creatures Community. Kaelis and nornagon began to phase themselves out, Kaelis more noticeably so, only returning to the developmental forums out of respect to his friends that were still in the thick of it.

At the time of Metacore's eventual downfall Kaelis was wracked with guilt over the pain that it had caused to its members. He could finally leave the Creatures Community now and did.

There were concerns by a number of members that the Creatures Community would be upset about the downfall of Metacore; As such Kaelis asked that all blame be passed onto him, since he knew that he would not return for a long time. His wishes were denied though, which showed how incredible those friends were. It was at this point that Kaelis chose his current nickname, having been known as Knux Econa up until this point.

Recent CC Involvement
Hiding on the outskirts of the CC, Kaelis recently archived the Beowulf Norns on his webspace.

He is in the process of working on a possible version of Freetures, and helps to moderate The Creature Repository. He also created the genome for the recently-released Akatora Norns.
