“The winding path to peace is always a worthy one, young Aoirtae. Regardless of how many turns it takes.”
- - Ryen imparks some wisdom on his pupil Aoirtae
Ryen is a mysterious male Osteola loyal to the New Cyrannian Republic as well as an enigmatic order of warriors, sages and knights united in opposition to Tyrómairon and his Phaedric Order. A wise, kindly though stern figure, Ryen is equally adapt at solving problems diplomatically as he is with his energy sword. As a young Osteola, Ryen quickly discovered that he was attuned to the unknown energies permeating the Cyrannus Galaxy, granting him abilities ranging from telekinesis to the ability to harness fire and lightning in the palm of his hands. In his earlier days, Ryen was one of the first Cyrannians to explore the Tigris Galaxy, where he was trained in the ways of psionic energy by Hierarch Kroc himself.
Though he has lost contact with Kroc and the Krassio in the decades since, he utilised Kroc's training well, being a force in conflicts including the War of Ages and the campaign against the Entropic Dalek. While these events would elevate him to a position of notability amongst many of the universe's empires, Ryen remained staunch in his opinion that he is little more than a teacher eager to pass on his knowledge. Unbeknownst to him however, his actions would have a profound impact on the history of the Cyrannus Galaxy, specifically those in relation to two young women with a special destiny.
Biography
Early Life, Student of the Krassio and the Unknown Order
“I have certain gifts, shall we say. In my younger days, I travelled to the Tigris Galaxy, where I trained under Hierarch Kroc himself, the greatest user of Psionic Energy in history. I myself am adept in psionic energy, though the fabrics of this galaxy are such that I am also attune with the unique energies of light unique to this Cluster.”
- - Ryen, speaking with Aoirtae shortly after their first meeting.
Ryen was born on the Osteolan homeworld of Mandatine in 87 BNE, where he spent much of his youth. As he grew older, it became apparent to his parents that their son was born with many unique gifts, including an ability to levitate his play things and even influence the decisions of other children. While he was not ostracised as a result of his powers, he nevertheless failed to fit in with other Osteola, prompting him to leave home and travel the galaxy when he came of age. For two decades, Ryen travelled between distant worlds in the search for greater knowledge, particularly through old texts relevant to his abilities. This curiosity prompted him to travel to the Tigris Galaxy when diplomatic relations were established between the United Republic of Cyrannus and the Krassio, a powerful faction of psionics dedicated to peace and order.
There, Ryen became a student of Hierarch Kroc, a figure considered by many to be the greatest user of Psionic energy in existence. Training under Kroc, Ryen learned multiple forms of melee combat in addition to the energies of Psionic, augmenting his already powerful abilities garnered in Cyrannus. While under Kroc's teachings, Ryen heard rumours of the Valader and a force the Krassio referred to as the true Order, though such knowledge remained unknown to him throughout his years in Tigris. After the War of Ages and the Second Coming of the Ayrai'Shikua, Kroc deemed Ryen's training complete and after a fond farewell, the Osteola returned to the Cyrannus Galaxy. There, he heard whispers of an Unknown Dark Lord lurking in the shadows. With the Krassio ascended into realms unknown, he was unable to seek their assistence, though came into contact with a mysterious secret society of warriors, sages and knights united against the growing Darkness in the galaxy.
Their efforts would be hampered exponentially upon the fall of the United Republic of Cyrannus and the rise of the Galactic Empire of Cyrannus, with Tyrómairon at its head. It was immediately apparent to Ryen and his allies that this new Emperor was one and the same with the Dark Lord haunting the shadows of Cyrannus. Unsure of how to proceed, Ryen and his order retreated deeper and deeper into the unknown reaches of the galaxy, their future uncertain.
Physical Appearance
Ryen carries himself with wisdom and thoughtfulness.
A brown skinned male Osteola, Ryen is slightly taller than members of his race of a similar age and tends to carry himself with a more upright posture. To an average citizen of the Cyrannus Galaxy, Ryen is often assumed to be a scholar or a monk due to his tendency to wear a hooded robe as well as ceremonial Osteolan cultural effects such as a unique circular cowl that covers the back of his head. Like all Osteola, Ryen has a single crest on the top of his head, which changes colour depending on his mood, with light brown indicating calm and deep red indicating anger, though given Ryen's thoughtful personality, this is a rare occurrence.
Personality and Traits
Ryen is a wise and intelligent Osteola who rarely ventures into emotions such as anger, jealousy or rage. Indeed, contrary to perceptions based on his rather fearsome physical appearance, Ryen abhors violence in all its forms though it quite a proficient warrior should the situation call for an energy sword rather than diplomacy and compromise. He is steadfast in his dedication, wise in his counsel and modest in his considerable abilities. Ryen recalls fondly his time among the Krassio of the Tigris Galaxy, though his time in Tigris resulted in a strong dislike for the Congregation and the more modern Dominion of the Xhodocto, which he considers to be the epitome of evil in the First Gigaquadrant. While his soft-spoken nature belies his fierce abilities as a warrior, Ryen is one of the Cyrannus Galaxy's most proficient swordsman, mixing both ancient Osteolan martial arts with the legendary prowess of the Krassio against potential foes. In addition, Ryen is also a master of utilising both Psionic Energy and the unknown energies which permeate the Cyrannus Galaxy, making him a high unconventional force in combat.
