Kheran

Kheran

During the Kryptonian Wars, a splinter faction of Kryptonians fled the Kryptonian Hegemony and found a new planet to dwell on. They called this planet Khera and somewhat politely subjugated the race occupying that planet, the Titanthropes.

Unfortunately the colonists did not avoid the Oan genetic plague. After arriving on Khera, their birth rates plummeted to nearly nothing. Eventually the Kryptonians discovered that they could crossbreed with the Titanthropes, resulting in a new race that could be accurately described as the 'true' Kherans. The introduction of new genetic code into the genetic stock resulted in unpredictable capabilities for these young Kheran hybrids.

So called 'Noble' Kherans who were members of the original Kryptonian colony are long lived to the point of being immortal. They tend to have a more homogeneous appearance than their Kheran children and more consistent genetic markers. Kheran nobility have much more limited abilities than their Kryptonian cousins but are still quite physically capable.

Khera eventually clashed for control of their planetary system with a race of shapeshifting creatures called Daemonites from a nemesis-type planetary body opposite Khera. The war would be extremely prolonged and follow both species from system to system as they sought out other places to live. Wherever Kherans settled, Daemonites would follow. A pair of ships crashed to Earth approximately 1500 BCE, leading to the creation of the Sisters of the Coda as the Kherans fulfilled their vows of vengeance.
