John Silver's origins/backstory are more closely looked at in the flashback sequences.  He is a member of the Ursid race. At the time Earth was destroyed by the Drej he was a young man who was establishing himself as a farmer on his home planet, and was engaged to a woman of his race named Callisto. When the humans were dispersed, a group of them including members of Project Titan arrived on their planet asking for shelter and supplies while they regrouped and planned what to do next. While it was debated, they were eventually allowed to stay. John had been on the side arguing to help them.
Soon afterward however, a list of names of all those affiliated with Project Titan was given to the Drej by the human man Dr. Donald Baxter. After his wife was murdered by a desperate group of human raiders looking for supplies, he became vindictive and sought the Drej's help for revenge. Also coming to lose his faith in humanity and believe that their true nature is based around greed and animosity. Giving them the names so that they would kill the raider group, leading to massive widespread execution. The Drej the refugees with the Ursids, and demanded that he and his allies were handed over or they would exterminate them all. The Ursids refuse, and work with the humans in a big battle with the Drej. Though they managed to win narrowly, they face heavy casualties. John's brother and Callisto were both killed during the battle, and his homestead destroyed. John in part blamed himself for this because of how he was one of the main defenders of keeping the humans there, and if he had refused them he wouldn't have lost everything.  But seeing what deciding to help them le to, also decided that from then on he'd look out just for number one.
