Born on Mars to a an Elven Father and a human mother who perished during childbirth. Grew up under the tutelage of his father (a helicopter parent) who feared losing him as he lost his lover.

Eide was kept almost entirely indoors for his childhood. Isolated socially, he learned about most other people through books. He picked up Dwarvish this way, sporting an odd accent due to his lack of conversation partners.

Eide would be conscripted in 2304 to fight in the conflict against the Galilean moons, being assinged to the Europan frontlines. From there, he would defect and join the Githerzai side, studying their culture and ways in and attempt to "humanize" their cause.

Once on Europa and safely behind the lines of the Gith, he reinvents himself, shaving his head, wearing their clothes, taking their names, &c. He held an ultimate goal of finding a pre-conflict text authored by the Gith.

While searching for the aforementioned text, Eide's vessel was one day pulled from its trajectory and locked in stasis before an aberrant black hole. He assumed himself dead, but instead had his mind touched by the black hole which would take over his conciousness. From this encounter, he would develop his aberrant sorcery. He was percieved as having caused the navigational problems of the expedition (which required a rescue mission) and was subsequently tried and expelled from Gith culture.

Eide was apprehended near the Europa frontlines by People's Liberation Forces and taken into custody.

Eide aims to forge some sort of personal identity for himself and to figure out what this thing thats taken over his brain is and how to use it.
