Name: Qinzy MarQai
Description: Qinzy is afflicted with an odd genetic disease that makes him about the size of a six-year old with the stature of an adult, about 116 cm tall. He has a peculiar form of heterochemia, with a red left eye and a brown right eye. Qinzy was born into a the slums of Calkanis, on the outskirts of the infamous Metropolis. His parents were bad folks, and shortly after he was born they were killed in a Mobb shootout. Qinzy, having nowhere else to go, dove into the secret back alleys and tunnels of the planet-city. Darkness was his friend; he learned to move silently and to scavenge for food. When he ran into others, it was only ever other tunnel rats such as himself, and he quickly learned how to scrap; to fight dirty. Throwing elbows and biting, and using blades or pistols when he knew where to find them. This could not last, however, and at the tender age of 23 (HAH!), still a child in body and mind, he got caught sneaking into The Mistress' home. He was promptly caught in the act of pilfery by The Mistress, and instead of killing him as she could've done, she for some reason decided to take pity on the strange boy, and took him in. He was fed, bathed and clothed for another 3 years, and Mistress taught him to read and write, and forced him to learn of the history of his people. One day his past caught up with him, and in the dark of night night Mobb thugs came to Mistress' house and burned it down. Qinzy barely escaped. He tried to run from the scene, burned and coughing, but the crooks were long gone, and the authorities were quick to arrive. After running for yet more years, he learned of the Migration and promptly signed up. Now at the age of 36, and with the mind of a ten year old, he only hopes to survive to exact revenge.
