Even at times, he does not show it and is one that can act friendly and be nice to people. But, during his time at Vira-Legat Bioengineering, he has also shown to be ruthless in his drive and not care about the costs of his mother's dream. Which means a lot to him after his mother's death, and he seeks to do right by his family. Despite his drive, Rylond still finds time for the little things and does make some friends throughout his life. Though his drive has waned as the years passed and the true costs of his mother's dream weighted on him. Realizing that he can no longer do this, he seeks to make amends for his time at Vira-Legat. To ease his conscience and seeks to start anew somewhere else. [b][u]History[/u][/b] Rylond had always wanted to do right with his family. Born the eldest son to a researcher and government official and in New Pretoria on Callisto. Rylond's life growing up was a happy one considering the state of affairs in the solar system and despite the commitment of his parents's professions, and he would grow close to his mother. His mother, Sarette Marais, a talented and well-known scientist who worked for Vira-Legat Bioengineering. Sarette had a dream where, through her work, humanity could be something more than what they are now. A dream that she would share with Rylond. However, while it is still unknown what caused the accident at her lab that killed her and destroyed much of her research, his mother's death affected Rylond greatly. But sometime after her death, he gained a newfound goal of continuing what his mother started and fulfilling her dream of making a better humanity no matter the cost. So, with his father's backing, Rylond attended a prestigious university on Mars after years of hard work. He would earn his doctorate and either through his hard work or perhaps by being the son of a well-known employee or both. He applied and was accepted to work at Vira-Legat Bioengineering and eagerly continuing his mother's work. For years, he worked diligently. At first, he did not expect the level of zero ethics, but this did not bother him later on as it meant there was no limit to his research. Which pleased him, and he worked hard. Soon, he was transferred to the Kepler Space Station to continue his research there, and Rylond was eager to work at the most advanced nations in the system. But after four years on the station, things started to change for Rylond. For after years of research and experiments and seeing the true costs of fulfilling his mother's dream. Did Rylond start having doubts about what he was doing and if it meant sacrificing what was left of his humanity to do so. He had done many bad things in his quest, and the costs were catching up to him to what remained of his conscience. Now, Rylond is considering quitting Vira-Legat and leaving the station. However, he knows that will be hard, given how Vira-Legat would not be willing to give him up so easily and how far they are from the rest of the colonies. But one thing is sure, he can not see himself doing more vile things in the name of his mother's dream and seeks a new path for himself. One where he could make amends for his actions and start anew. But for now, he stays on Kepler and plans on how to leave the station and quit Vira-Legat for good. [b][u]Fear and Regret[/u][/b] N/A for now. [/hider]
