Book of Stone: Decklaa

For April, Stone Soldiers.info is celebrating the A to Z Blog Challenge with daily letter-themed entries. A separate page with a list of all these entries, plus Character Profiles and Book Synopses will appear on the right hand side of the page in coming weeks, detailing the people, places and things of the Stone Soldiers universe.

A millennia-old First Born, Decklaa was a powerful forest elemental who concocted a scheme to kill all of humanity in the early 21st Century (SS: 06, Terrorcota). The elemental posed as a human, creating a mutated mold that could turn a human into a mindless, zombie-like creature. Building a green company to disperse the mold spores, she was poised to succeed in eradicating man from Earth. Fortunately, Decklaa's plans for Armageddon were forseen by the psychic Kenji Nakayama and she was stopped and ultimately killed by the stone soldiers.

As an elemental, Decklaa possessed nearly unlimited powers of regeneration and cellular manipulation, beyond the DNA level. Decklaa was able to control and even create sub-sentient lifeforms.
