Sunny, and his sister River, were unwitting victims of desperate times and the whims of bad alliances. Part of a small pack of Devoma with in-depth knowledge of the three powers, and allegiance was formed with roaming Wurthan mercenaries and pirates. They agreed that, between them, they could be in a position to nurture the next generation and create a force to be reckoned with. For Sunny and River, this meant a childhood robbed of the usual social and communal activities, and all the beautiful things that can be formative for a child.

Of the two, the higher-ups in this hybrid pack favoured Sunny (then named Rowan) as the potential for a powerful role. Navigator, leader, commander. His training was hyper-focused on physicality, fighting, and the eventual mastery of Akunra. It is cosmic irony that Sunny was naturally more inclined towards the science and tech that was famously out of reach for their race. Despite gruelling schedules, he amde usre he could learn as much as possible.

Then the day came that Sunny left the pack. It tore him apart to leave his sister like this, and he wanted to take her with him. But she had succumbed to the years of gentle manipulation and brainwashing and was firecly loyal to the crew, to the pack. In a dangerous act of trying to open and travel by portal with only minimal training, he made the jump, ending up in a random place and covered from ehad to toe in injuries. His battery practically drained. Only by good fortune of a landing on a Devoma-neutral planet did he find a healer.

From here, Sunny had total control of his life for the first time. He cultivated his knowledge, found a natural spark for critical thinking and maths and science...but also cultivated bad habits, like being self-obsessed and narcissistic. Hang-ups from his time being a prized child in the pack. He has no off-switch and no social graces. If he thinks you're an idiot, he will tell you. He does not like to fight, but he will defend himself.
