Michael Valen is a living mystery, a human riddle that is still not solved, and probably never will be. Little is known of him, and that what is known is most likely far from the truth, or doubtful at best. Rumor has it that he was born on Planet Curacao, that is located within the Cortez system. But this information is shady, for some state that he was born on Planet Houston, and yet some speak of him being born in Bretonia. The only known picture of him was sent to the Police Authorities by an unknown person, presumably Michael himself sent it.
The year of his birth is also an information veiled with secrets and myths. No records exist about his birth, and no doctors or nurses that witnessed his birth were ever found. One woman from Bretonia, named Caroline, last name not revealed to the public, claimed that she was Michael's mother, and spoke of the year 792 AS as the year Michael was born. But she has been a patient of the New London Psychic Institute since then. Some said that she is mad, but some claimed that she was declared mental to deny her testimony about her being Michael's mother. His father was never mentioned anywhere, which lead to the conclusion that he was long gone, and no one had any information concerning him.
Caroline also spoke of this boy being an extremely quiet and shy, who hadn't had many friends while growing up. She speaks of him as a very smart and talented young boy, who excelled in school, especially in subjects such as mathematics, logistics, and politics. And as an opposition to other children his age, was never fond of school subjects such as physical education. He always preferred using his mind and wit instead of his physical attributes. She claimed that Michael was a student of the Winston Private School, on the Planet New London. While the teachers of that school have no records nor memories of him being a student here, they do remember a boy with similar personality. He was described as a child with incredible instincts and reflexes, that went by the name of Lewis, last name unknown.
However, even with these testimonies from the teachers of the Winston Private School, all leads and information concerning Michael disappear when he was approximately 18 years old. Caroline also claimed that Michael escaped from her home in 808 AS, so that concurs with the information that the teachers provided to the investigators.
Not long after the investigation about Michael's disappearance began, unusual things occurred. Caroline was found butchered in the New London Institute, her head was severed from her body, and her tongue was cut out and burned with a candle that was lit in her room. There was a writing on the wall of the room that was written in Caroline's blood, it simply said "SHHHHHH". No clues were found in the room that could lead to the killer, but the writing on the wall lead to the conclusion that Michael came back to silence his mother, and remove any and all that could reveal his location, or in fact any information about his life.
Further investigation traced Michael footsteps to the Planet Curacao, which as some say it, confirms that he was born there, and completely denies Caroline's story. The investigators traced him to a person that was considered by some to be his father. After a long surveillance on his house, and not seeing any progress or movement they decided to risk it and entered the premisses. Only to find the said man hanging down from the ceiling. The description that follows is a direct quote from the investigators logs:
"What we found there is unexplainable and disgusting. The man that we later discovered was named Lewis, was hanging from the ceiling in his room. He was hanged by his head, and his arms and legs were cut off and placed on the bed beneath him in a shape of letters T and Y. Blood was everywhere, it was terrible."
It was yet later on discovered that the letters T and Y stood for thank you, and that Michael received fighter pilot training from this person. It may seem that Michael was covering his tracks well, since no clues were found at the man's premisses to where Michael is. Later on the investigators came into contact by a person who claimed to be Michael's friend. He provided information that Michael is currently somewhere in Bretonia, and that the most likely location is Planet Gaia. "An interesting turn of events it may seem. Michael may yet be found." the investigators say.
