Early History
Birth & Abandonment
Born on what has been thought to be Year -19, Harada was abandoned in a peculiar chain of events. He was born prematurely, requiring medical care for a few days after. His parents visited him during this period. During this period the nurses often talked to them, and did get their identities, however due to an error in record keeping they lost their names, and the child's birth certificate. The day Harada was to be taken off support they did not come to the Hospital, for several weeks the hospital staff waited, they looked for anything they could find that could be used to identify the child, but it was of no use. The only thing they came up with was an account of his first name. During the time in which the hospital waited, they looked into a couple which had been shot point blank in the middle of the street. The descriptions did match that of the father's and mother's, however corrupt local law enforcement refused to allow any further inquires, despite the hospital's constant requests. Harada was never told of the murders and believed for a long period that his parent's had indeed abandoned him.
Living in Another's Home
As the hospital waited it came apparently obvious that his parents would not be found. He was sent to an Orphanage where he stayed till he was age 6, when he was taken from the Orphanage. He was never adopted though, the person who took him, used a loophole in it's charter to take the child without filing out any documents. However the Orphanage did record that around Age 6 to 7 the child was taken over by a foster parent by the name of "Julian", no last name was given though. As it turns out the person was Julian Malani, a man who would become a father figure of the young child. At the time the child was under the name "Tyrone" as this was the name he was identified with at the hospital. Julian turned out to be a prominent member of "The Desert Snakes" a street gang on Tatooine, Julian raise the child for three years before he expressed interest in joining the gang, reluctantly Julian agreed, and he passed down his bandanna to the child in a old tradition. The Child was then named "Harada Malani". Taking Julian's last name per tradition, and a first name of Julian's choice. Harada was the original name of Julian's deceased father, who died in front of Julian during a Tusken Raid. At this point Julian left "The Desert Snakes" and has been missing ever since.
Left in the Deserts
It seemed it had all been expected, as if this could have been easily predicted. For several years Harada remained in the street gang. Making alliances, seeing sights, he truly began life now. The most memorable event he recalls is when he saw them, the Banthas striding along the deserts of Tatooine.
- "They paid no attention to the turmoil around them. While people died they strided along, same as usual, unaffected by the world, only when they lost loved ones did they stop. They felt the pain of those close, but did not concern themselves of those distant to them... Sometimes I prayed to be more like them."

He remained in the gang for many more years. Around the time he turned 17 the gang had become embroiled in a power struggle. The loss of Julian had left a void, one that lasted years after he left. While many came to try to fill the hole, none were able. Even Harada at one point attempted it, but he to simply worsened the situation. Year -2 the gang was officially dissolved, as several members agreed to leave and pursue a new unknown group interest. Harada was not included in the group and was on his own for much of the time. As he wandered the deserts he had an epiphany. He wanted to save lives, he wanted to change the galaxy, and he would not rest till he had. It was at this time that he saw interest in the Empire.
End Game
Final Days
The final days of Harada's life were similar to that of his beginnings. Alone, abandoned, and reckless.
Harada Malani was under the process of receiving a loan of credits and assets from House Hawkes when he illegally boarded a House ship and stole several undisclosed items.
Agents quickly apprehended the criminal and summarily brought him to the head of house, Augustus Hawkes. Augustus passed final judgement and performed the execution.
Metamorphosis Plague
Harada Malani was transformed by the Metamorphosis Plague of Year 14 into a Ryn on Day 27 of Year 14. Prior to the transformation he was a member of the Human species. Here is a picture of him prior to the transformation caused by the plague:
During his transformation Harada described immense pain, and after it he complained of migraines that seemed to last all day. Not only that but he has said he has little to no recollection of many of his former friends, except vague memories of Grouta Vermilic Smaga and of many employees serving in Serv-O-Droid. This is only a temporary side effect, that subsided sometime soon after.
Known Ships
