History
Kor is an amphibious humanoid alien who's spaceship ran out of fuel and crashed on an unidentified tropical island on Earth. The island was run by a Caucasian man named Mason, who bullied the Natives into working and scavenging pearls for him. After meeting Mason, Kor informs him he's and alien and even shows Mason his downed spaceship. But Mason doesn't believe him, thing the spaceship is simply and airplane. After a couple of weeks on the island the Natives came to like and respect Kor. However, Mason saw this as threat to his rule and so challenged Kor to a diving competition, Kor tried to tell Mason that it wouldn't be a fair competition but he can tell Mason wasn't interested in a fair competition and so Kor finally agreed. While diving and collecting shells Mason holds Kor down thinking he will be able to out last the stranger and prove to the Natives that he is the better man. Kor, however just continues to swim and after a couple of minutes Mason passes out of lack of air. When Mason awakens on shore and wonders about how Kor could stay down longer than he did? Kor informs him that on his planet there is no dryland, that their cities are instead built on pilings rising out the sea and that his people also have gills! [1]
Attributes
Powers
- Underwater Adaptations: Kor's body adapts to underwater conditions, such as changes in pressure, temperature, and visibility. As a result, he is able to breathe underwater.
Notes
- It's possible that Kor, along with Jarna and Vanza are all members of a here to unknown species of amphibious humanoid aliens.
- Even though Kor states he has gills they aren't visible even when he is only wearing swim trunks.
- The natives appear African so the island is possibly somewhere off the coast of Africa.
