Quan-Jin (kwan
jeen) Huang was born on Khantze Lu Ge and lived there for 14 years before
developing an inoperable tumor on his brainstem, which pressed against his
spinal cord and left him all but paralyzed until a member of the Upeo wa Macho
(a woman he recalls as unnaturally tall and beautiful) took him to Beijing for
antiproton treatments to burn away the tumor.
He was still in the hospital undergoing treatments when the Esperanza
crashed and the Teleporters vanished from human knowledge, leaving him stranded
on Earth, in the care of his rather domineering family matriarch, a 73-year old
great-grandmother with notable rank in the Ministry. She had her nephew tested and, pleased greatly with the results,
explained to him that he had a far greater destiny ahead than to be a simple
colonist. She took him into her home
and taught him what he needed to know to be a Ministry agent while physical therapists
taught him how to walk again and basic motor skills, which he still has not
recovered fully. She also gave him his
new name (in line with her own values, she follows the traditional means of
composing a lineage poem with each family members given name starting with a
character representing a word in the poem in precise sequence) and officially
took custody of him until contact with Khantze Lu Ge was reestablished or he
were to attain his majority. He was in
the middle of post 'awakening' training when the jumpships were finished and
left for his homeworld and was unable to arrange special dispensation to go
with them and be reunited with his family (his great aunt has made enemies and
one of them blocked his request for political reasons, but he remains ignorant
of this).
Now that he has
heard of the fate of his home city of Kuan, he is wracked by 'survivor's guilt'
and isn't sure he even wants to know what happened to his family. He certainly has no desire to go there to
his home and see it infested with Taint and Aberrants, his home in ruins, his
family scattered, enslaved or destroyed and what stands being overrun by
Legionnaires pouring fire and devastation forth upon his only memories of
happiness.
Despite (or because
of?) his deteriorating physical condition in his youth, he has become quite the
perceptive genius, he is a people watcher and a keen observer of patterns of
behavior like no other, a remnant from the years of degeneration before his
problem was diagnosed when he could just sit and watch everyone else his age
work and resent him for being able to sit in the shade, while he sat and
resented them back for being able to walk in the light. These skills make him a most promising
addition to the Aviary.
