Allies of H.E.R.O 2.0

The Heroes of the City have allies that help, some have a questionable allegiance, but help no matter what. These include members of The AGENCY, as well as a few others who show up to aide and assist them.

#### **Yash-Ti of Nashar**

Formerly a member of the Nasharian Royal Guard, and friend of the House of Bellamere's former ruling Monarchs, Erisan, and his wife Pralana. His past was something he'd tried to forget as he swore his allegiance to the Bellamere's, knowing one good deed could undo any wrong. When Pralana Bellamere gave birth to Pico, Yash-Ti knew he would turn the soon-to-be "Last Bellamere" into a great warrior and King one day. But Yash's past slowly crept back into the light, as several Hetalian Darksiders came to the Monarchs, and pleaded with Erisan that the Royal Captain was not to be trusted. Yash, who'd been a Bounty Hunter across several systems, including the Iglesian Order and Salzair System.

Yash-Ti, wanting to serve loyally and with all off his chest, admitted to his past, and those he tracked down--even killing numerous bounties--admitted this to his friends. Erisan sent Yash to the Nasharian Mountains for a 6-Month sentence. It was during this time that the Mercenary Hive arrived, after a wave of attacks on Hetalia. Yash, along with the lesser-sentenced, and still loyal Nasharians and Hetalians, were released to join in the defense against Drone #0001 and the contingent of Drones. Yash, returned home a Hero as the Mercs were all-but wiped out, Drone #0001 and the few left, fleeing through a Void Portal back to T'Roa.

Back in the good graces of the Monarchs, Yash-Ti watched as young Pico Bellamere grew, and began to instruct the brash child how to behave, be honorable, and be able to defend himself. Giving Pico a boomerang, he would spend several years teaching Pico to use the simple weapon effectively. Feeling more peaceful, Yash soon fell in love with a Nasharian woman, Garlsia. The two lived in the Royal Palace, Yash continued to train Pico, while aiding the Monarchs in many areas. Garlsia, who was a teacher at a Primary School, would sneak Pico out to play with the kids from her school.

It was when things seemed perfect, when everything turned upside-down. As the Repscallians, led by the newly titled "Lord" Skarn, attacked and decimated most of the Regal City, that Yash-Ti did all he could to save the Bellamere's. Fighting against Skarn, he was knocked out, and awoke to see the Monarch's dead at Skarn's own hand. Luckily, he'd found the minorly-wounded Pico, and took the young teenager to an encampment in the Nasharian desert. Over the next few years he trained the child, and turning Pico into a strong fighter as well.

   Years had passed, and as word of Skarn's intention to use Ancient Nasharian texts, stolen from Nasharian catacombs, Yash contacted his Hetalian allies. Some, hesitant to trust the former Bounty Hunter didn't see his plan to take Skarn down, as anything more than foolish. But a few Hetalians, as well as as many strong and brave Nasharians as there were in the camp, soon saw to join the fight--including Pico. The night fell across Nashar, and the final march on the nearly-destroyed former Palace was under siege again, this time Yash and Pico led the charge. The two got separated, and as Pico went off to free any imprisoned survivors of Skarn's brutality, Yash confronted Skarn.

The two battled, and as Yash had Skarn pinned, aiming a blaster at the outcast Bellamere's chest, Skarn activated a holographic recording. The image showed Yash-Ti, years earlier, killing several Nasharian guards, years earlier--in cold blood. Skarn threatened to reveal the truth across the Iglesian Order, knowing the evidence would get Yash-Ti sent to the Penal Colony on the world of Deathwish. Yash-Ti dropped his weapon. Skarn threatened to kill Yash, but let him live if he swore his allegiance. Yash relented, and Skarn still drew his axe, knocking Yash out cold.

The events that sent Skarn, then Pico Bellamere to the City occured. Yash-Ti, destroying the evidence that Skarn threatened to use against him, met up with the Hetalian and Nasharian forces. They'd discovered the Void Portal generator had been used to send the pair to a distant world. One of the Hetalians, Gerish-Mo(Frostbite) accessed a small console, and found a trace of the evidence that Yash-Ti had mostly destroyed. It would be years until that recovered evidence would be used to label Yash a traitor to the Iglesian Order, and Murderer.

As time passed, Yash grew more and more separate from Garlsia. Garlsia had helped rebuild what she could, but as the remains of the Repscallians had destroyed what was left of Nashar, she succumbed to the heavy atmospheric radiation that turned a once beautiful purple sky into one full of green clouds. Yash, burying her in the remains of the Primary School, left Nashar, and for years went back to Bounty Hunting. But he suddenly was summoned from across the Galaxy, as an Octembrian Senator, Orin, who'd been loyal to Skarn for many years, while acting the role of a "Man of Peace", contacted Yash. Orin brought Yash to a hidden Octembrian Lab, where he used a Void Portal Generator to send Yash to Earth, where Skarn had contacted Orin from his Fortress.

Arriving in the City, he was met by Cazz and a group of Repscallian Drones, and blasted by Cazz's lazer eye. Awaking in the Fortress, he noticed he'd been implanted with a Shock restraint, and was now fully under Skarn's control. Skarn then ordered Yash to prove his loyalty, even though Yash had destroyed the evidence(mostly). Skarn then sent Yash to track down Pico Bellamere, who was amazed Yash had survived. Yash then revealed his new "allegiance" to Skarn, and could feel the heartbreak in his former pupil's heart.

In the Season 2 finale, Yash managed to free himself from the control chip, and escaped Skarn's Fortress, but not before being attacked by Cazz. He suffered a venomous bite, but fled. He arrived at the Hero-Cave, tracking down Pico and seeking redemption. After making amends to Pico, as well as Hero-Man and Frostbite. When Hero-Man opened the Void Portal, using the Atlantean Amulet, Yash accompanied the Heroes and arrived back on Nashar for the first time since his betrayal.
