ORIGIN

Growing up to a wealthy pod in Reiladel, the prosperous Fontian city, Roiter Zarusine signed up to the Youth Deliex program as a teenager. Fontia, being hundreds of thousands of years ahead of Earth in its technological advancements, had exhausted all its resources, and had begun the Deliex (scout) Initiative in order to seek out new resources and specimens. After twenty years of training and lower-level exploration and testing, Roiter was promoted to a lead Deliex. His husband (or the male equivalent of a husband) Jaruine, a fellow Deliex, was killed in a pod explosion that destroyed the Deliex facility and released most of the harvested energy used for teleportation and weaponry into the ether. Iuri Benzene, the head of the teleportation unit, was blamed for the explosion. Benzene had absorbed all of the quantum energy and become a quantum-shifting being with immense power. He escaped Fontia as a wanted criminal. Zarusine took charge of a Deliex task force to search for and detain Benzene, and his path led him to Earth.
