Editing Darnar Brokas (section)

==Childhood:==

[[Turkana IV]] is a violent and chaotic world located in the Turkana system. This planet was once a Federation Colony, but became subject to civil unrest, which transformed into open civil war. Two largest factions, the Coalition and the Alliance vie for control of the planet, and while the World is officially a Protectorate world of the [[UFP]], the Federation has decided to remain  neutral during the conflict.

It was into this environment that Darnar Brokas was born. Darnar’s early childhood is lost. He does not know either of his biological parents, and there is evidence that he is the resultant offspring of an encounter between his mother and one of the violent rape gangs that are prominent on the colony.

And while he does not know his mother or his father, Brokas does know a woman named Marana, without whom, he would not have survived his infancy. 

Marana was a refugee from the city of Molas, which had been devastated by biological warfare during the height of the civil strife between the Coalition and the Alliance. She had lost her only son in the attack and after several days of wondering through the underground labyrinths of Molas, discovered the infant Brokas, who had been abandoned by his birth mother.

She named him after her lost son and proceeded to raise him as her own. Darnar Brokas’ official date of birth is listed as Stardate 2357.10.20, a date which coincides with his discovery and subsequent rescue from death by Marana Brokas.

Growing up on Turkana IV was not an easy task. As a young boy, Darnar was an unwilling participant in unsavory acts. These actions centered on a need to survive in a very hostile environment. By the age of ten, Darnar Brokas was an accomplished thief and came to the attention of an officer in the Coalition Militia.

He was taken from his surrogate mother, Marana at the age of 11 and forced to attend school. His teachers found him a bright student, who hungrily devoured information, a trait that would stay with him for the remainder of his life.
