==  Kaylen == Kaylen felt neglected and had a power issue, causing him to focus on the military after losing his sister and father, as well as his mother. His mentor, Drayon, had led him into the path to attacking The Fire Nation. During the attack on his home, he met again with his father, and they organized a way to save their people. The Eritomoru, as well as a way to show the other nations they are not weak. Kaylen did not save his sister, as Zade urged him there was not enough time to go back and get her in the neighboring city.

Zade
Zade had left his family after being confronted by a member of the Kikono. After having sent his wife into exile in a rage, the Kikono told him he was destroying everything he loved and his nation too. They sent him to find his wife to make amends. He finds her, but she is slain. Zade is torn apart, but he does not know the Kikono orchestrated her death. Guilty with knowing he caused his soulmate to be slain, he went back to the Kikono to ask for their help in restoring his nation to its former glory. They told him it was too late and gave him the weight to bear that he got his nation destroyed. They told him the only option was to reconnect with his son and guide him into creating an organization that would bring destruction to the other nations to allow the survivors of the shadow nation to rebuild.

== Drayon == Drayon was always apart of the Kikono since he was a child, and was close with Kyokku and most importantly, Somnium. He was a creation of Somnium, after all. He grew as a child alongside Zade and then mentored Kaylen.
