Ekuryua, formally named Aicryac Üémh Tlyzr Naurh, is an Abh female distinguished by cyan hair and turquoise eyes, traits common to her genetically modified race. Born in I.C.Y. 936 aboard a trading ship traversing planar space within the Barke Kingdom, she experienced childhood economic hardship. Her impoverished family clan kept numerous cats that bullied her, leading to a lasting feline aversion. At age five, her father sent her to relatives in Lakfakalle, where she grew up surrounded by many children. During this period, she developed an affection for a young boy named Sukashu. Ekuryua exhibits a reserved and taciturn nature, speaking sparingly outside operational necessities. She demonstrates occasional insensitivity during high-speed combat maneuvers, prioritizing mission success over crew comfort while piloting vessels like the Flicaubh. A distinctive mannerism sees her tracing circles with her finger on surfaces when nervous or deep in thought. Despite her general dislike of cats stemming from childhood, she displays a specific fascination with Jinto Linn's cat Diaho, using care for the animal as a pretext to interact with Jinto during her off-duty hours aboard the assault ship Basroil. Her military career commenced in I.C.Y. 951 as a Line-Wing Aviator aboard the Basroil under Deca-Commander Abriel Lafiel. She rose to Rear-Flyer by I.C.Y. 956, advanced to Front-Aviator that same year, and achieved the rank of Deca-Commander in I.C.Y. 959. She participated in key operations including Phantom Flame, the Aptic Offensive, and Hunter. In combat, she serves dual roles as communications officer and second aviator, operating laser cannons to defend against mines with exceptional marksmanship. While typically reserved, her demeanor transforms during piloting duties, demonstrating daring aggression, sometimes bordering on recklessness. Interactions with Jinto Linn reveal a complex dynamic. Ekuryua communicates with him bluntly and directly, frequently volunteering to care for Diaho despite her aversion to cats. Episodes in Banner of the Stars III depict unexplained synchronization with Jinto, such as simultaneously knocking over glasses during separate incidents. Her dialogue includes asking Jinto, "Why did you decline?" and responding to his inquiry with, "Because I want to be alone with you. Would it make you happy if I said that?" suggesting potential romantic interest. She harbors an aversion to carrots. A radio drama story in "Seikai no Dansho III", titled "Camping with Naurh (Ekuryua)", provides further context within the series' universe.
