**Crow Harbor** is a character who appears briefly at the end of *Sunrider: Liberation Day* before making a full appearance in *Sunrider 4: Captain's Return* as the main antagonist.

He is an ancient Ryuvian warlord who lead The Fallen, a faction in the Holy Ryuvian Empire hellbent on installing himself as the Emperor. He unexpectedly found himself 2,000 years into the present day, after having activated a half-finished time machine to prevent his imminent defeat during the Battle of the Mnemosyne Abyss.

Realizing that there is no possible way for him to return to his timeline, and that present-day humanity technology is primitive compared to his own, he sets out on a new plan to subjugate the galaxy and rebuild the Holy Ryuvian Empire from the ground up.

## Background

Over 2,000 years ago, the Holy Ryuvian Empire, overconfident with their military and technological prowess, attempted to subjugate the Farari, a kingdom of white-haired, white-skinned nomads living in the Northern quadrant of the galaxy. The Farari put up a much stronger resistance than anticipated against the Ryuvian invasion.

Rather than face a humiliating defeat, the Ryuvian Emperor at that time, Tera di Ryuvia, offered his hand in marriage with the Farari Princess Olan Farr in exchange for the Ryuvian annexation of the Farari. Together, they bore two sons - Olgar di Ryuvia and Rayvin di Ryuvia. However, Tera also had an illegitimate son named Crow Harbor with Countess Tella Harbor, who was his previous betrothed of pure Ryuvian blood.

Decades later, the ambitious, power-hungry Rayvin assassinated his father and elder brother to seize the Ryuvian throne for himself. He then blamed their deaths on his half-brother Crow Harbor. Crow, having been accused of a crime he did not commit, rallied forces around the Holy Empire to overthrow Rayvin and install himself as Emperor, sparking a bloody civil war which threatened to destroy the Ryuvian Empire.

Known as The Fallen, Crow's forces slowly started getting the upper hand in the war. It was soon clear that unless drastic measures were taken, Crow will be victorious. The Ryuvian Empire possessed a flagship known as the Sharr'Lac, which had a main weapon called the Final Tear. This weapon is capable of destroying almost anything within a half-light year radius, but it can only be used with the sacrifice of the Emperor's daughter. Rayvin's daughter was not willing to give up her own life to this end, so she found and kidnapped Sola di Ryuvia, an illegitimate daughter of Rayvin, forcing her to take her place as Sharr of Ryuvia.

Meanwhile, Crow, having caught wind of Rayvin's plan to use the Sharr'Lac's Final Tear against him and his forces, hastily built a time machine in an attempt to dodge the Final Tear's blast, hoping that it would bring him and his fleet back in time before the battle. During the Battle of the Mnemosyne Abyss where Crow's fleet was cornered by the Sharr'Lac, Crow activated it in desperation. While the time machine worked, saving him and his fleet from certain annihilation, he was instead flung 2,000 years into the future, with no provisions to return to his original timeline.

## Personality

Crow is depicted as a vengeful, spiteful, self-righteous, arrogant megalomaniac with delusions of grandeur. He believed that he is the true heir of Ryuvia, and that it was his destiny to become Emperor. When marooned in the present-day timeline, even with no means to repair, resupply or refit his technologically-advanced military, Crow nevertheless ordered them to prepare to subjugate the galaxy. He also ordered the death of his niece and sworn enemy Sola, drawing untoward attention to himself.

He believed that by capturing Canon (also known as Claude Trilleo), he was able to harness her god-like time manipulation powers to restore the Ryuvian Empire and become, in his own words "the emperor of existence itself". His mad quest for power eventually proved to be his undoing, when his whereabouts were discovered by present-day humanity, ultimately leading to his demise.
