Constis Valayner

## History

### **Early Life**

Valayner was born on a fringe world around 3000 light years away from the Parmenian Sector on the year 2250. He was the only child of Harinus Valayner and Naia Nazadal, who had a personal garden in which they prefer to hang out in most of the time. His early life was very good, his parents prioritised family over other stuff, his father was a veteran of many battles, and he was allowed to retire as he has reached the rank of being an Instructor. Valayner also lived in a relatively large neighborhood, and had a lot of friends. Personality wise, Valayner likes socialising with others, had close ties with his grandmother. He preferred playing games that involved a lot of running. He was described as "being very athletic for his age", as he was aged 4 when he manage to run a full 50 meter dash without tiring down. And it seemed that he will live a priveledged life, until the year 2255.

### **The Invasion**

It was a clear afternoon on his world, he, aged 5, was just playing with his friends, this was until, the skies began to darken. He and his friends saw massive fiery displays of large objects entering the atmosphere, yet they didn't have any idea what were those, until Harinus, started warning everybody, to start fleeing to nearby evacuation stations, and as soon as Valayner heard his father's voice, he also heard distant thundering noises, and soon, nearby explosions were heard. Valayner and his friends fled to their parents, and it was just moments before everything descended into chaos. Almost every male in the neighborhood armed their power armour and light cannons to delay the EUF forces. Luckily, a brigade of reinforcements from a nearby Ostroni battlefleet, went to reinforce the locals, but it wasn't sooner before the Ostroni forces were outmatched as a Legionnaire Battlegroup reinforced the enemy. The situation soon descended into chaos, and Valayner, didn't know what was happening, all he can hear are screams of civilians as well as gunfire

Harinus was one of the senior commanders, and he was one of the frontline commanders. But he joined the forces helping evacuate the civilians, after the first line of defense was broken. After then, he met up with Naia, who was carrying Valayner, and as he had done that, a squad of Assault Tempests emerged from a drop pod and started to massacre both soldiers and civilians.

Harinus decided to take on them, alone, and being an instructor, he outmatched them individually, but 4 posed a threat large enough to him. But they were no match for his skill on his battlesword, as he defeated them one by one in melee. Afterwards, Harinus and surviving shocktroopers help other fleeing civilians, and a few minutes later, a drop pod, bigger than usual, contained a squad of Legionnaires.

This was a threat that all soldiers in the area knew, they will not prevail against, but they held their line, using themselves as meatshields to buy the civilians time to escape. But their efforts were in vain as the battlefleet above the planet, was destroyed by the EUF battlefleets that outnumbered them 3 to 1. As the planet was slowly being purged of its population, Naia, decided to hide Valayner in the corner, as she decided to join her husband in the fight, as she possessed her own suit of armour. She learned sooner that Harinus lost his power armour to a Legionnaire, and she tried to cover her now vulnerable husband, but her efforts were futile, as the legions of Assault Troopers were beyond counting. Sooner, she was shot by an AAMAC to her heart, killing her instantly. Valayner, just hiding in the corner of an unknown alley, just waited it out, as the gunfire was very intense. But eventually, it started to die down, and 10 minutes later, it was quiet.

Afterwards the gunfire stopped, Valayner, slowly walked out, of the alley, and saw around him the destruction of the battle. The entire neighborhood he knew for some years, now gone in an afternoon. He was just walking by the street, with hundreds of Ostroni bodies littered around, and for young Valayner, was a terrifying site. Sooner, he saw a body, it was Harinus, who apparently got killed by AAMAC shell splash damage as he was unprotected. Valayner kneeled down before his father's now dead body, and began to weep, until he heard a loud stomp infront of him. As he looked above, to large figures were infront, and the way they looked like, they were the enemies, Legionnaires to be exact.

He suddenly jumped back, laying on his back in terror. Unknown to little Valayner, he will have no chance of surviving such encounter, well, that was until, when a Legionnaire swung his chainsword at Valayner, it suddenly froze in the air, as behind him, another large figure emerged and started fighting the two Legionnaires.

The fight was loud enough that Valayner was forced to cover his ears and close his eyes. It lasted for a few seconds, until he saw the legionnaires were dead, and the figure that saved his life seemed injured. But soon it stood up, and looked towards Valayner, and soon spoke, and Valayner realised it was a friendly, endorned in armour he never saw before, but heard tales of them. The large figure soon carried Valayner, surprisingly, his hand was comfortable, despite it being designed to crush supersoldiers. The Vanguard carried Valayner to safety, and he heard a loud explosion, and saw enemy ships falling from the sky, as he looked above, friendly ships along with the largest ship of the Ostroni during that time was with them.

### **Post-Invasion Life**

Valayner spent the next 10 years after being rescued being raised in a training world by Juinias, he surprisingly shared a similar childhood that his Leader, Se Ostren experienced more than half a millennia ago. He was raised with countless other Ostroni to become shocktroopers, as a result of the current war that has forced almost every male member of the species to take arms to battle an alien race known as humanity, who united under the name of the EUF. He was really, nothing special amongst the others. He performed as good as the others, he spent time hanging with his fellow initiates. Once a year he gets a visit from his adoptive father, due to that individual's occupation as a Vanguard, he had little time to spare to visit his adoptive son.
