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. The year of his birth is also an information veiled with secrets and myths, as there are no records whatsoever of his birth, nor his life.

"Michael is a living mystery, a myth, that few ever see and even fewer live to talk about it. There is a thin line between sanity and madness, and Michael often travels back and forth between the two. He is a sane madness, the harbinger of terror, which in his eyes is the only way to force humanity to redeem ourselves for the sins we have committed against him. We must reap what we have sown."

[[image: ValenCity.jpg|left]][http://discoverygc.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=58443 Michael Valen] was born on [[Planet New London]] in the "Angel's Wing" Hospital by mother Caroline and father Lewis Valen in the year 792 [[A.S.]] Not much time needed to pass for Michael to taste the bitterness of reality as his father left him and Caroline when he was 4 years old, depriving him of the father figure in his life and of a normal playful childhood.
 +
Soon after his father's departure, Caroline and Michael entered serious financial problems that caused Caroline's mental illness and turned her to seek comfort and absolution in alcohol and narcotic substances, as well as prostitution. Even though Michael was only 6 years old at the time, being in a situation he was in, Michael was forced to grow up and condone his childhood, for which he never forgave Caroline, even blamed her for that his entire life.
  
 +
Caroline's prostitution ensured Michael attended the Winston Private School in New London, and concerning material things a happy and fulfilling life, as he never missed anything in that matter. However, his soul and heart were shut from the outside world, forcing him to grow up without any friends, and even though none knew it, he preferred it that way.

Michael was a great student, smart and cunning, always preferring to use his wit and mind instead of his physical attributes. He excelled in school subjects such as mathematics, politics, psychology, social studies and logistics, and was known to hide his intelligence from the outside world. And as an opposition to other children his age, was never fond of school subjects such as physical education.

Over the years Caroline neglected Michael and his needs while mainly focusing on her own satisfaction, resolving to frequent use of narcotics, and the constant visits of her "clients". Michael's life was unbearable as his own mother cared more about her work and the daily pill then him, so he turned to violence and causing problems to draw her attention, in which he did succeed, but in a wrong way. Instead of making Caroline realize that he exists in this world, she now saw him as a burden that needs to go away, and enlisted Michael to the "Hand of Mercy" Psychiatry for treatment and brain washing.

With the age of 18 Michael was brought to the "Hand of Mercy" Psychiatry, where he was diagnosed with sever depression and mental trauma. Even though Michael was trying to reason with the Doctors at the Psychiatry, and explain what was really going on with Caroline, none believe him, as he was considered mentally ill. Lack of trust, and ignorance from the Doctors cause Michael to experience uncontrollable anger issues, and occasionally assault the Doctors.

Michael's mind was weak, as he was given tablets to ease the pain, and quicken the recovery. Little did the Doctor know that no recovery was needed for Michael, and that he speaks the truth of Caroline's prostitution, drug and alcohol problems, and complete denial of a child's existence. Psychiatrist at the Hospital subdued Michael to brain shocks, in hopes to restore his mind mental activity, which seemed to be ignoring the outside world, and creating its own little world with Michael his own master.

 +
The same Doctors that are supposed to help those who need it, and listen those who need listening, were doing Caroline's work in her name, and Michael was at the brink of collapsing into the darkness of his mind. Nevertheless, Michael was still very fond of his mother, and defended her in front of anyone, clearly a sign of a disturbed mind the Doctors thought, but only a sign of a child's love for his mother.

 +
Seeing no hope in staying in a world no one cares for him, Michael broke out of the Psychiatry, stealing all records of his existence in the Facility. The plan was to escape as far as possible, away from the torture of the world, even more, the torture that is Caroline. While roaming the streets on [[New London]] Michael runs into trouble, and a young girl saves his life, showing true human care for him, and for the first time in his life, Michael was in someone's heart, even for a short while. The young girl was [[Georgia Brown]], with whom Michael fell in love at first sight, and who convinced him to go back home to his mother.

[[image: ValenHouse.jpg|left]]He stayed with Caroline for a short while after that, until finally he couldn't take it no more. Michael ran away from home and with a help of an old friend of his mother's, Michael managed to locate his father on [[Planet Curacao]], in the [[Cortez]] System, on a mountain where he lived alone. Michael calls his father The Old Man, never by his name.
 +
 +
At first, the two got along well, until The Old Man showed his true face to Michael. He exposed his drinking problem to Michael, and the love for machines and research, who he loved more then his own son. Michael endured the constant threats and insults, but in time, but the last straw was when The Old Man hit Michael as he tried to touch one of The Old Man's experiments, a body armor, that increases the wearer's physical abilities, but with a terrible cost, the degrading of the mind and all that makes one human, his feelings.
 +
 +
The one fatal night when Michael decided to put on the body armor, it connected to him on a mental and physical level, only worsening his already twisted view of reality, Michael killed The Old Man in a state of rage and fury, mutilating his body.

Michael Valen was born on Planet New London in the "Angel's Wing" Hospital by mother Caroline and father Lewis Valen in the year 792 A.S.

Soon after his father's departure, Caroline and Michael entered serious financial problems that caused Caroline's mental illness and turned her to seek comfort and absolution in alcohol and narcotic substances, as well as prostitution.

The body armor Michael was getting addicted too, was powered by special Crystals, that are created by solidifying Liquid Cardamine.

Michael managed to find the LiCad Crystals onboard Driscoll's Pirate Transport, but the armor, even though he was drawn to its power as before, the urge to wear it was dispersing. As he flew away from the Luxury Liner, and away from his Angel, his heart again was darkened with thirst for blood, anger consumed him, hatred towards the human race, towards all who wish to hurt him and his Angel. Justice needs to be upon those who oppressed Michael in his life. However, thoughts that he has of his love calm him, bring his mind at peace, but Michael's mind is a tortured one, his thoughts tend to travel in time, in memory, and in dreams.
