## Biography

### Black Swan Bay

MC's origin is initally unknown. At some point in their early years they ended up at the orphanage in Black Swan Bay where they were trained in combat and the use of Ex. Skill. Eventually, they became close friends with Renata and by extension Z.

#### The test

When Renata was 13 years old, the day before Christmas and also Renata's 14th birthday, the player experienced a nightmare of being chased by a wolf-type Dragon Subspecies. Renata awakened the player up for the yearly test that would allow an orphan to go to the capital, yet the MC seemed uninterested enough to forget about it.

Outside of the cabin, Renata was greeted by Jung Von Herzog, the leader of the orphanage, while she looked for flowers to give him as a Christmas gift. Renata was relieved after she managed to distract him long enough so that he wouldn't notice that Z was still sleeping. Z hadn't made much progress in his training, even after receiving all the nutrients that Herzog made for him.

MC attempted to motivate Z to participate in the test, but he showed no interest in being told what to do and declared that he only stayed in the orphanage by his own will. On their way to the test, MC was reminded by Ivan to look for a date for the Christmas banquet.

Once at the testing grounds, Renata gave Herzog a Christmas card. MC and Renata were mocked by Anton and Khorkina after a disappointing performance during their tests. In the end, Anton was chosen to leave for the capitol after he was the only one to display an amazing power.

   The exercise was interrupted by the arrival of Major Bondarev, who brought supplies and left to negotiate with Herzog. Bondarev intended to learn about the true nature of the orphanage, but Herzog alleged that he only worked on creating a genome bank.

#### The Christmas tragedy

Herzog asked the orphans to leave and prepare the banquet and gave a chocolate bar to MC, a limited reward for the orphans. They then gifted it to Vera and agreed to be her date for the dance. Vera cherished it since it was her first Christmas present. MC later went to watch the ocean with Renata, who expressed her wish to see the outside world together.

That night, the orphans lighted up the Christmas tree and watched a fireworks festival while Z left due to boredom. Herzog then showed up and took Anton away, saying he needed to ensure that he was healthy before letting him travel. Renata expressed her disappointment that she wasn't the one who got to leave to MC. Seeing this, Z suggested to them that Herzog was ill-intentioned and "only took one sheep at a time before devouring the entire herd". He then mentioned that giving them his gift in front of everyone else was a bad idea and went to sleep early.

Hours later, MC awoke and left their cabin to find Z wandering outside. He decided to give them his gift, something that they had to witness inside of a dark cave. Being left alone at the entrance, they snuck inside and found Herzog explaining the history of the Dragon Raja to Bondarev.

While the information was interesting, more pressingly, an unconscious Anton was strapped to a wheelchair. Coincidently, he was brought up in conversation and MC learned a horrifying truth: Being sent to the capitol was every orphan's dream, but instead they had been taken down into this cave, Herzog's secret lair, and experimented on until death. Worse, Herzog explained it mattered not whether they were sent away; those that displayed abilities like Anton were not to live much longer, having reached a turning point where their bodies would soon rapidly deteriorate.

To add to their list of revelations, MC overheard how the entire bay would be attacked and destroyed that night. They patiently waited for a chance to act, but unfortunately Anton awoke in pain and with a single bullet he was unremorsefully shot in the heart. Once the pair left, MC quickly checked Anton and confirmed his death before hurriedly leaving to warn the others of the impending attack.

By the time they ran outside, the bombardment of the orphanage was already underway. Aircrafts bombed the area, large fires quickly spread, and armed men chased down those still alive. MC watched as Vera and some of the others fled, but all except her were gunned down. Vera stopped running and turned towards MC, but whilst distracted, men appeared from behind and killed her in front of them, the gifted chocolate flying away from her bullet riddled corpse.

Enraged by her death, MC slaughtered the killers and their comrades in a rage fueled Blood Rage. This left them tired and vulnerable once the effects wore off. Luckily, Renata was the one to find them next. She relayed how she couldn't find Z, worried about him, but then more armed forces arrived. Pressured, the pair ended up running to the lighthouse. While Renata was able to turn around and use her skill to form a minigun from broken parts, she could not defeat all the pursuers alone. With both orphans now exhausted and cornered, it wouldn't be long for them both to be killed. However, even while being shot, Renata mustered her strength to push MC off the cliff into the icy sea below, in hope that MC would live. Right after, Z found Renata's body and took her away.

### Cassell College

#### Awakening

When MC fell, they became encased in ice, so cold they entered cryosleep. Once discovered, they were brought to Cassell College and thawed out. There, they awakened and met both EVA and Principal Anjou who explained their predicament. MC had been buried under the ice of Siberia for 20 years, and was recently recovered by the college's icebreaker. They were then enrolled as an S-rank student of the College and set free to explore the campus outside.
