You are all permitted to RP out the journey back to base and the arrival at the base itself (which in turn is a simple apartment in the Galactic Bazaar).

Also, sorry about this, Duoya, but next GM Update will be in a few hours.

Short Bio
Born into the Romu-Dookan Clan, a royal-blooded (read: ceremonial royalty) family slowly entering decline after years of bad business and political decisions, Yuno Romu II was the eldest of three children, and as a result, received the most attention in terms of schooling and health, but also the greatest part of his temperamental father’s wrath. As he grew up constantly subjected to his father’s mood swings, Yuno came to develop an ability to read the emotions of anybody he knew, and as such, could avert most disasters better than his two younger sisters.

Despite the largely ceremonial nature of the clan's status, the Romu-Dookan maintained a private force of mercenaries and black-market men organised into a pseudo-military of sorts, a force they were able to maintain for the greater part of their history thanks to several strategic bribes.

As such, Yuno was schooled, for the most part, not in subjects like mathematics and the humanities, but rather in such matters as political theory and military strategy. From as early as the tender age of 7, Yuno received training as a member of the Romu-Dookan’s private military, and was schooled on all matters pertaining to such a vocation, from the use of firearms to the donning of a ceremonial uniform. At the age of 11, on his father’s recommendation, Yuno was commissioned as a full officer, much to the chagrin of many older and more experienced personnel, who were also vying for a commission (and the pay raise it would bring). Understanding the consequences of alienating such powerful individuals, Yuno put on an air of humility before these people; to a certain extent, this humility was real.

Though the Romu-Dookan’s wealth was already siphoning away decades before he was born, cataclysm finally struck when war broke out between Humanity and a race of aliens known as the Rau’ve. In a swift move, the Ascendancy of Man rose as a new forerunner in the human agenda, secretly recruiting a multitude of human children for their military experiments, a fate from which Yuno was not spared; the Romu-Dookan’s private military was forcefully dissolved, and Yuno Romu was taken into custody by the Ascendancy. His remaining family was stripped of their styles and sent into exile, never to be heard from again.

Aware that he was of aristocratic blood, and cognisant of his “military” background, the Ascendancy was quick to take advantage of this; rather than train him as a frontline fighter, Yuno was made to be the “brains” of the human force. Tortured for months to break down his mind, the 13-year-old was then subjected to a series of excruciating experiments on his brain. His golden hair turned white almost overnight, and more noticeably for him, Yuno soon came to realise that his eyesight had actually improved, but to the point that even focusing normally on an object would force him to see it like a microscope saw its subject; in impossible, painfully high detail.

Yuno was, thus, put to work analysing images of enemy formations. His boss, a morbidly obese 52-year-old colonel named Krull Wronodd, took a liking to the boy, and ordered that he be trained to be his own bodyguard, learning other combat skills (physical and magic alike) in order to do so. Wronodd also attempted to take advantage of Yuno sexually, but thankfully for the boy, the colonel was stopped by his own superiors.

The tide soon turned against the Ascendancy, as the foe vanquished the fleets of humanity decisively at the Battle of Proxima. Wronodd and his immediate circle took their own lives, leaving Yuno the only one alive in the bridge of his ship as the aliens stormed the vessel.

Taken captive by the Rau’ve, Yuno expected to be killed, and braced himself for the worst. Much to his surprise, however, the aliens actually treated him well while in custody, refraining from torturing him the way the humans had. It was in the detention of the Rau’ve that Yuno came to learn of the existence of numerous other children like him, children who had been far less fortunate than he had. It was in the detention of the Rau’ve that Yuno came to hate the bureaucracy of humans that had ruined him and the other children he saw around.

As such, when the time came, Yuno flatly rejected the offer of a new, comfortable life. That would have to wait till another time.

Spell List
Timespace (Eagle Vision): While not technically a teleportation ability, Yuno possesses abnormally powerful eyesight. He can see objects in impossible detail, as well as distances ordinarily invisible to the naked eye. This comes at a cost; he is in a state of constant discomfort, and often experiences intense and debilitating headaches.

Mind Magic (Future Reading): Through the torture inflicted by Colonel Wronodd, Yuno is able to read the immediate intentions of almost any individual, seeing what they intend to do in the immediate future. This does not grant him mind manipulation abilities, and he cannot read long-term strategies.

@The Senate, clarify more on who exactly the Romu-Dookan clan are, and you'll be accepted. I want to know the clan's origins and how they fit into the implied history of the Ascendancy (once democratic, now dominated by a President-for-Life).

Alright, I've added a paragraph to the bio. For the most part, the clan was (they're no longer extant) something of a ceremonial royalty, declaring themselves to be of noble status, but whose claim is only recognised selectively.

@The Senate, Cool, but your character won't know basic military magic until he was injected with Kaisoken dust by the Ascendancy...

Oh? I don't recall seeing that in the OP. In any case, I'll edit again.

The information was scattered around in said OP, but still there.

Accepted, though.

SORRY SUDDENLY DISAPPEARING.

IRL matter occurred, and I deemed it to be in my best interest to drop everything and focus at the task for the moment. That's done now so I can resume my regular schedule.
