Yod's parents absent mindedly raised him on a mining barge in HighSec. His play things were poorly crafted veldpar action heros which he carved during an early life of duldrums snacking on snow cones shaved from the remnants of ice harvester left-overs.

Yod's parents were closet Blood Raiders, so keeping a low profile and secret cultish rituals was normal life. Yod faught in the DUST 514 tour for many deployments, then entered college to return to the stars. In college he was recruited by some missionaries of THE CODE and Sani Sabik... but learned of their distorted ways. It changed his life... There is good news...

Yod now serves as the highest rank of Divine Commodore for the Empress and is a devotee of St. Tetrimon.
