Bio:

Jaqen is a native of the Altetch Star System, a race that would eventually be known as the “Altess”. Born of a time long before the genetic manipulations and extreme prosperity of the Altess today, Jaqen’s upbringing was more barbarous in nature, than cultured.

The people of the Altetch believed themselves to be the descendants of the First Race and as such, each living member contained a small fragment of the information needed to find the Cosmic Forge. Rather than unite together and puzzle out the mystery, the people of Atletch chose the path of warfare. Hoping that with each death, the knowledge that person contained would be released and absorbed by the survivors, eventually as their numbers dwindled enough the path to the Forge would become less murky and the survivors would be able to reclaim their position on top of the Megaverse.

Jaqen although raise a barbarian like the rest of his race, was always more of a thinker than a warrior; His thoughts usually lacking focus but always eventually reaching the same conclusion: War is stupid. The tribes of the Atletch had been warring for thousands of years without any sign of progress: although death was a common occurrence, the population remained stable and more importantly, no revelations had been found. Although the constant slaughter of his people with nothing to show for it weighed heavily on his mind, the true cause of Jaken’s distress were the clear parallels to “The One”. Although his people were the descendants of The First, it was clear they shared little in common with the noble race and far too much in common with the madman that managed to wipe them from existence. Jaqen could see no future but horror if his people were to ever find that which they sought.

Jaqen’s attempts at converting his people to his way of thinking were futile. The race still thousands of years too young to accept any solution that didn’t involve death, treated Jaqen’s enlightenment as synonymous with cowardice and the cultural revolution he sought was only met with more blood. Although his people were unable to respect his philosophy, the Cosmic Forge could. Jaqen now possessed two historical accolades among his people: He was the first of the Altetch to have no interest in finding the Forge and he was also the first to find it.

Although always an intellectual man by the standards of his people, it wasn’t until being empowered by the Cosmic Forge that he truly reached a state of enlightenment. Although the very essence of his being had always sought to remedy the imperfections of his people, only now did he realize the folly of his ways. They were not ready to find the Forge on their own and if he returned to show them the path, they would only revere him as a God Although only a small comfort, he was now at least sure that the bloodshed would eventually end on its own, when the Altetch are more responsive to change.
