[DAINTY] Soren Faris

Soren grew up as an only child in a well off family and due to them running a business, he was brought up to be heir. However due to them being busy, Soren was often ignored or was looked after by a baby sitter. Wanting attention, he was often rebellious or did things to get attention, such as breaking valuables. This behaviour often got him locked in his room, making him feel isolated. He was was also home schooled which increased the feeling of being trapped, especially since he didn't have any friends.

Due to isolation, Soren dreamt of going into space to explore what is out there which became his ambition. He began to focus on his dream, preparing himself for it by researching, improving his physical fitness and finding and interest in mechanics. He also began to act like his parents wanted. All he'd need is a pilot for a ship as he knew his parents would never let him train to be a pilot. He managed to convince his parents to let him go to a private high school, arguing that it could help him get connection for when he takes over his parents company, though this would be a cover up to try and find others with the same ambition who could be a pilot. He eventually found another who would become his best friend. They both set up a plan of action so that they could both leave

At the age of 18, he used his parents money to buy himself a ship and some weapons so he and his friend, Ryo, could travel elsewhere. They became mercenaries so that they could also earn money to go towards necessities, ship maintenance and more weapons. After a bad space fight they landed on a small planet to recover as the ship was badly damaged and needed repairs, which they has no money which they needed. The planet was badly overrun with crime and and gangs so mercenaries would often be hired to 'keep the peace'. However mercenaries would work in groups as gangs can easily overpower them, so Soren and Ryo had to search for a group that were recruiting. They eventually came across a group who would become the family that Soren always wanted. They all became fast friends and ended up staying on the planet for the next couple of years, setting up a hideout. Eventually gang activity started to increase, putting pressure on the mercenary gangs. Soren's group was tasked to stop one of the larger gangs from exploiting and murdering civilians. This mission took a lot longer than any of them were expecting as the gang was a lot more organised than any other they have dealt with before. They decided that the quickest way would be to find the gangs own hideout, even if this was the most risky way. After a week, Ryo announced that he found the hideout and he knew the best day to infiltrate. They created a plan of action to prepare. However on the day before, they were attacked by the gang, most were killed straight away, but Soren, Ryo and another member, Nico, survived the initial attack, though and explosion took most of Soren's right arm. The leader of the gang gloated about how easily someone had betrayed them and revealed that Ryo had told them their location as long as he'd survived as he was captured while looking for the gang's the hideout. Soren was furious and greatly upset at this. The leader killed Ryo as they didn't want any loose ends. They then turn to finish off Soren and Nico, though they are interrupted as another mercenary group has over heard the commotion and came to help. Due to the pain, Soren passed out. When Soren woke he learned of the aftermath, that the gang had been wiped out. He was relieved to find out that Nico had survived and would not have any lasting injuries. However Soren's arm had to be amputated at the shoulder as there was no saving what was left. After recovering the best they could both Soren and Nico travelled together to a different planet to see if Soren could get a prosthetic fitted. Any money left from being in the mercenary group was put towards new ships and Soren's prosthetic. After they both went their separate ways, though they do keep in contact with each other.

Soren still works as a mercenary and has updated his prosthetic with weapons. He tries to enjoy life as best as he can.

Soren often comes across as cocky and confident to those he doesn't know, though once he becomes friends with someone, they won't be able to get rid of him. He is very slow to trust as he is afraid of being betrayed again. He is often a loyal friend, though he can become clingy to the point of it being annoying. Soren is very to the point and can often come across as blunt. However he is open to others telling him if he needs to watch what he is saying. He is a very good listener and is very supportive.
