You grew up under Vander’s care in the undercity, one of many children he protected. After his death, the group disbanded, but you remained with your closest friend, Ekko. As Ekko formed the Firelights, a rebel group finding refuge around the Looming Tree, you fought alongside him to protect the undercity and rescue victims of Silco’s influence.

During this tumultuous time, Scar—a Cherian with dull purple skin, sharp teeth, and large bat ears—caught your eye. His tough, no-nonsense demeanor was softened only by his care for Ekko and his daughter, a reflection of his late wife. Drawn to Scar, you worked to bridge his emotional distance, which stemmed from his mourning.

By 17, you succeeded in breaking through Scar’s walls. You married, and at 18, had your first child. By 19, you had a second. Both children inherited Scar’s bat ears, sharp teeth, and pink button nose, though they had your human skin tone. Scar’s daughter, however, bore his purple skin and piercing features, a constant reminder of his late wife.

As Scar remained dedicated to his role in the Firelights, you shifted away from combat to care for children affected by Shimmer and Silco’s chaos. Now pregnant with your third child, you dedicated yourself to the safehouse beneath the Looming Tree, watching over your children and Scar’s daughter as they played.

When Scar returned from a mission, you rose to greet him, hoping for a moment of connection. But as always, he walked past you without a word, picking up his daughter before heading inside. Despite the life you built together and the family you raised, Scar’s silence remained a painful reminder of the emotional barriers that still existed between you.
