Ep. 2

Ep. 3

**Ty Ren** was a **Genus High Savant** and the master of the **element** of **wood**. Born on **Crystallion**, he grew up in ruins and poverty, making his way as an orphan on this planet. However, after being found by the Genus, he was given an opportunity to redirect his life. Mentoring under **Alon Nuiv**, he found himself learning a great deal about the world of negotiation and politics.

He sat on the **High Genus Committee** throughout the majority of his **Genus** career all the way up to the beginnings of the **Great Elemental War.**

In 10 BBT, he was tasked with training the four **half-empyreans**, **Parker Ardent**, **Chase Halcon,** **Kira Zolan**, and **Amara Typho** after the committee declined to take them upon as tyros.

In 0 BBT, Ren was killed on **Cordia VI** while rescuing Chase from the **Cyclopean Federation**, buying the team time to escape before being destroyed. His death was remembered and sparked the Genus to act within the **battle of Thyrian**. After the great battle that sparked the war, he was given a funeral service and was widely remembered as a great Genus protector, warrior, and mentor.

Ty Ren is the master of wood and a very good negotiator. He is said to be one of the best negotiators in the Genus Order. He was mainly taught by Alon Nuiv but he was also taught by Kendar because Kendar saw greatness in him and with the vast knowledge that Ren tries to obtain, he is able to keep up to date knowledge in his mind.

Ren is kind to his Tyros and is one of the great teachers in the Genus Order because he cares about his students and puts himself first in danger to protect them. Ren was put on the Genus Council and serves with the other great Genus on the council.

Born to the crystal planet called Crystallion, Ren grew up being very curious, leading to him getting in trouble. He was born to a family tied to the Supremacy Senate, exposing him to many business trips across the galaxy on business of the Supremacy. His mother, Kistra Ren taught him how to negotiate with the people they are interacting with to get what they want. If he wasn't such a good negotiator due to his mom's profession, he would have turned out to be a Genus Explorer.

During a trip to Travas, his mother had a meeting with the Salavan and in the process, they were attacked by the Zryopt. During this, the Genus arrive and they find out about Ty Ren's elemental power. Ty's mother ignores the call but a year later, the Ren family goes to Planetoid because Ty hears voices in his head. Soon, the Genus take him into the Genus Order.

During his time in the Genus Order, he befriended Cora Katar and stuck with her as his best friend. They both understood each other's wishes to learn about the Genus so they made a good pairing. During the Juvenis Ceremony, Cora inspired Ty to become a Genus Negotiator after being stuck between being a Negotiator or a Explorer.

Ty became a Genus Negotiator and was given his master, Alon Nuiv. During Ty's time, he realized that it was pretty easy to be a negotiator because of his family's professions. He surprised Alon with his mastery of fighting with an element sword and he used his element with skill and ease. Kendar looked over Ty as he thought he was special in the ways of the elements.

Ty's first mission took him to Jakra where he witnessed a murder from a gang called the Viper Cartel as they work for Olothorin Nightshade. When they report this to the Genus Council, they get assistance from other Genus Masters and Tyros.

## Biography

### Early Life

Born to senators for the Supremacy on 46 BBT, Ren was exposed to many different types of negotiation with various planets and in the Congress, causing him to become very patient and open-minded.

Kistra Ren always traveled with her son, showing him everything he needs to see so he could take her place when he gets older. His father, Victor Ren, wasn't apart of Ren's family as much because he worked for the Supremacy military. Ty was a trouble child, being very curious and interested in many things.

In 40 BBT when going to Travas, Kistra was visiting the Salavan Council, an attack occurs in the temple by the Zryopt from the planet of Smillon. When the attack moves on, the Tetre fight off the Zryopt but the Tetre soon lose. After calling the Supremacy, many Salavan die and Kistra is almost killed until Master Tendra Soto and her pantaloon arrive, taking care of the distress call. When Ren is almost killed by a Zryopt, Tendra saves him and senses his elemental force.

When the battle is over, Kistra begins to leave off to Thon, one of Travas' moons, to get more fuel to travel back to her home planet but she is stopped by Tendra. When Tendra told Kistra about Ty's potential, Kistra ignored Tendra's call, taking her son with her to Thon.

#### Inducted into the Genus Order

39 BBT, a year later, Ty starts to get voices in his head. Voices talking to him about greater powers and he tells his parents about this. Worried, his father decides to get some help but Kistra figures it might have something to do with the Genuses. After Victor theorizes what is wrong with his son, Kistra suggests that they meet with the Genuses.

When flying to the core worlds, Kistra and Victor bring Ren to Planetoid to meet with the Genus. After almost being kicked out of the temple by the Temple Guardians, Kendar meets with the Ren family to discuss Ty's voices in his head. When Kendar realizes that the Ancients have been speaking to Ty, he tells his parents that Ty is an elemental and that he would be safe learning under the Genus Order.

Victor thinks it's a good idea but doesn't have much say in the matter as he is barely involved with his son's life. Kistra didn't know what to do because her son was supposed to follow in her footsteps as a representative. Ren wanted to help her so he decided that he would return to his home planet to assist her.

#### Being a Juvenis

Ty never had many friends when being a Juvenis. He spent a lot of time studying and watching many live coverage on the Supremacy Congress. He didn't really know how to make friends because he only lived with his mom. Ty could never get comfortable in one area because he was always moving around the galaxy in demand from his mother's profession.

Ty was a good fighter but was passive and felt sympathy for others, which affected his skills at times. Being spectated by many Genus, they didn't think that Ty would be a good guardian for the order but Kendar thought he should get a chance. He knew his styles and knew a lot of knowledge of the Genus Order so Kendar kept an eye on him.

Ty met his best friend, Cora Katar, who was very smart and knew as much, if not more, than Ty. This started to pose some friendly competition which built up their relationship and opened up Ty more.

### Becoming Tyros

During the Juvenis Ceremony, Ty meet Mistress Iola, who believed that he was special. She liked to poke fun at some of the Juvenis but Ty seemed like a good target. At that moment, Mistress Iola knew that she would be working closely with Ty because she could feel some intense knowledge coming from him, making him an interesting Genus.

While searching for his crystal under the sorceress's spell, Ren had to face a situation that put his mother in a cell in a room filled with water. All the other rooms are dry besides the last one. There are giant holes at the bottom of the last floor to drain out the water. If he doesn't beat the system, his mother at the last floor will be electrocuted by the water. Ty has to calculate backwards, finding out how many floors he must drop to get to his mother. He realizes that he can only drop either one, three, or four floors.

As he does this, he figures out the pattern and Ty goes down the floors. Once he reaches the bottom floor, he saves his mother and retrieved his element crystal. As he came out of the trance, he gained his crystal and was taken to his room with other Genus Masters to gain their masters.

As the ceremony goes on, Mistress Iola feels the minds of each Juvenis to help them get a better idea of what they might wish to choose. Iola senses that Ty can become a Genus Explorer or a Genus Negotiator. Ty steps aside to think about it. As this happens, Cora visits him to talk him through his choices. She is going the negotiator route. This helps Ty decide what he wishes to do and he becomes a Genus Negotiator.

The Masters choose their Tyros to help them become worthy Genuses. Ty is put with Master Alon Nuiv, a Genus that is in the field of the Genus Negotiator. Kendar meets with Ty to tell him that he will be keeping a close eye on him with his training, like a co-mentor.

##### First Mission

As Ty trains with Master Nuiv, Kendar meets up with the master and the tyro to tell them that they have a mission to complete. The mission is to go to Jakra because they must oversee the slowing down progress of the drones and negotiate a better contract for the Supremacy.

While going to one of the drone facilities in Jakra, Ty studies the surrounding area, realizing that many of the locks have been damaged and no one is around the main buildings. Nuiv breaks into one of the damaged doors, seeing many bodies around the main floor. He looks at them, noticing no body marks. Ty studies the bodies, seeing their skin become paled and their blood bleeds out different parts of their body.

Ty thinks that this is one of the poisons that most bounty hunters use when they wish to get rid of multiple people at once. Nuiv finds a helmet from a bounty hunter, keeping it for analysis later. Suddenly, they find the head worker for the drone facility named Crysenia Chur. She explains that a group of bounty hunters named the Viper Cartel came for drone plans that will be used for the crime boss in the Savage Realms named Olothorin Nightshade. Nightshade has been building himself as a stronger presence in the Savage Realms.

As they gain this information, they decide to report to the Genus Council to reveal their newfound information. The Council decides to lend the team some help from other Genuses so they can search out the problem in the Exotic Territories. Tendra Soto and Inaga Ran join Nuiv and Ty's mission. During this, Katara Yalari and Seth Talon are investigating the crime scene on Jakra.

During their mission, Crysenia reveals that she can track the data that the Vipers stole. They track the data to Dyson. While they go to the planet, they search around the area. Inaga and Ty finds a facility building that has two of the Vipers standing outside of it. When the Tyros report back, they are taken by the two Vipers as they are stunned with the phasers.

When Inaga and Ty are being held captive, the masters pose a plan to go into negotiate with the Vipers. As this happens, three ships land with bodyguards coming out, protecting Olothorin Nightshade. As the data and medallion transfer commences, Tendra tries to go inside the building to rescue Inaga and Ty but is confronted by some members of the Viper Cartel. Fighting them off, she rescues the Tyros.

Nuiv tries to negotiate with the gangs but a fight breaks out. After almost escaping, Ty shoots a giant wood block at the wings of Nightshade's ship, making it crash. They arrest Nightshade and obtain the data. When reporting to the Genus Council, the Vipers almost kill them with the same gas used on Jakra but they are stopped by the four Genus members. They call in some members of the Supremacy military to clean up the gang unit and give Crysenia her data files back before returning to Planetoid.

As they do this, Ty realizes that this is one of the many Viper outposts in the area and even in the galaxy but Nuiv states that the Genus Explorers are to find any details on the Vipers and Nightshade to make sure the situation is subdued.

### Elemental Dreams

In 11 BBT, Ren, along with Flase Torum, Anna Shin, and Kal Kain, are called to the High Council room to meet with Kendar. They all had dreams of powerful elementals around the universe, hidden from the vision of the council. Kendar gets the other four High Council members to meditate and find the elementals. Ren goes to Heraclius, while Shin and Kain go off to their assigned planets to find the elementals.

### Traveling to Heraclius

When landing on Heraclius, Ren lands near Ardent Casino. Ren walks through the casino, looking for any signs of an elemental. When looking around, he sees life on the planet, seeing people mugging others and animals being treated in games. He can't expose his cover but logs this in his report, knowing that he has to keep tabs on this planet.

When walking through the casino, Ren hears someone say the name "Ardent" and he sees Buna talking with some criminal gang named the Fury Corps. They seemed to be wanting money from him so Ren sticks around. After the business associates leave, Ren approaches Buna. Ren asks Buna about his association of the Ardent family is like. He senses great power from the Ardent family so he asks where they reside. Buna doesn't let Ren know right away, asking to be paid. Ren negotiates with Buna, telling him that he is a criminal and that the Genus will let him go if he lets him know where the Ardent's live. Not being able to resist the offer, Buna tells Ren where to go.

Flying to the Ardent Mansion, Ren lands in a spaceport and walks out of the ship. He steps out, sensing the area around him and realizing that Parker Ardent is the one that he was looking for. Ren senses that Parker will come through destiny, leaving the door open to his Supremacy Ship. Ren goes back in the ship, relaxing and reading about some galactic news.

When Parker runs into the ship, Ren meets him, telling him that he was looking for him. While the conversation is brief, Parker agrees to go with him, as he is trying to escape his parents, Titus and Sarisa Ardent. Ren takes Parker in and they fly off, traveling back to Planetoid.

### Arriving to Planetoid

#### Checking in with Kendar

When arriving to Planetoid, Ren ends up arriving after Kal Kain. He lets Parker go into the Scullery as he checks in with Kendar, reporting the news. After reporting the news, the whole High Council was called to discuss the placement of the three new elementals. Ren thinks that with their power, they should be watched but he doesn't believe they should be controlled, agruing with Kain. Shin argues that since they are still children, they should be spared from this mistreatment. Kendar decides that they will be trained, ending the arguments.

When meeting with the three elementals, Kendar tells them that they will be starting their training the next day, giving them their rooms to stay at.

### Meeting Fuher Kin

A year later, Major Fuher Kin enters the council room, proposing an idea to keep the Congress safe. He says that it'll be safer from attacks if put on Planetoid, which most of the council disagrees with. As Kin tries to defend his actions, the High Council almost shuts down his idea but Kendar lets him do what he wants, as long as the Congress doesn't try to take over the Genus Order. Torum, not liking the idea, gives in and wants one thing from Kin, some control in the Congress. Reluctant to this idea, Kin agrees with them and makes a deal with Kendar.

### Welcoming the New Tyros

Ren is present, along with other Genus Council members, in the Juveni Ceremony as they watch the upcoming Tyros gain their element crystals with the help of Mistress Iola.
