    | HISTORY |
    Ryuken was the youngest of 8 children born into the White family.  Shortly after his first birthday, his family packed up and moved to the Crater.   Being a small child amongst 7 much larger siblings was hard for him, as his parents often times pretty much ignored his existence. As he grew older, he traveled farther and farther from the safety of his home, and wondering upon a large family of dragonkin.  Surprisingly to him, they were much kinder and warmer than his own family,  resulting in him constantly running away from his family to lurk near them.  

    By the time he was 8, he met Shuseki.  The dragonkin family couldn't help but let the newest member of their brood slip to their near-constant guest; resulting in Ryuken becoming determined to befriend the other altered human.  The pair were fast friends, with Ryuken dragging the other child into constant trouble.  Raza wasn't a fan of it but allowed the older child to be around for the sake of his son. 

   However, like most good things, their friendship came to an abrupt end when Ryuken's family decided to pack up and move to the other side of the Crater overnight.  Ryuken hated this idea but had no say in the matter.  Ryuken was distraught at losing the only real friends that he had and seeped into a deep depression.  By the time he was 14, he had grown silent, no longer trying to argue with his parents or siblings over his unhappiness.  It was at that time, his family all but packed up around him, and left him in their home in the middle of the night; leaving him alone.  

   It didn't take him long before he decided to find his way back to his old home.  The trip was long and treacherous, but within nearly three years, he had managed to walk his way across the region alone, before collapsing on the doorstep of one of the shops in town.  A bystander found his downed form and had him emitted into the local hospital.  The nurses fussed over him for the two weeks he was stuck there, and often time would braid his thick hair to avoid having to cut it.

   It didn't take long before he was released from the hospital, and he was offered a place to stay with one of the local "grandmothers" in town.  He loved it and began opening up to her, but he refused to talk about his family.  She became his grandma and the closest to a parent he had.

   The reunion with his old friends was a rough one; it had been nearly 10 years since he had left, and all of them had grown up since then.  Shuseki was really the only one willing to accept him back, and even then, he was held at arm's length.  He is now determined to make friends, and further the few friendships that he currently has.
