Yet as time passed division split the two, Cremini was a bright boy who enjoyed helping his community and was loved by many in his town while Hericium after his parents died shot dead by an explorer in 7bby he grew to be more hateful and sulky often hiding in the dense jungles and lurking on the edges of town just close enough to keep feeling the great connection of his people but far enough to not be a bother...
This eventually came to end with hate when a fight broke out between Cremini and Hericium during one of Hericiums many misdeeds as he stole often to feed himself when living off the earth seemed unbearable, during their fight Hericium always smaller and weaker then his once friend struck him upon the skull killing the man and in a way himself as because of their great emotional connection almost every bit of the pain he felt himself driving him insane as he felt his own skull split over and over day after day...
Murder was the only punishable crime on the almost lawless planet of Mydasos and for it Hericium was banished by force shipped off planet with an imperial exploring company, eventually breaking free of his captors and forced conscripts he joined the rebels for a bit of revenge and because wanted as a criminal for killing imperial soldiers he felt he had no other option, isolated and alone he desperately tries to forge a path in this ragtag group sleepless and often in pain as he still feels the blow to his skull ringing it..

Obsession-Nat'yrie , Hericium is obsessed with Nat'yrie another of his species he has bonded deeply with, unwilling to let her see harm, he will kill any who harm her and will see himself die before she suffers, if she is harmed he will be in great distress and will listen to her above any person, order or reasoning so long as she is not abandoning him.
