TECHNOLOGICAL GENIUS: Staren has vast scientific and engineering knowledge, and absorbs new information like a sponge - if it can be done with just knowledge and/or practice, chances are he can learn it, especially if he already understands similar things. His social naivete has led to no longer caring what most people think of him - the few who take the time to understand him are those he calls friends, and to them he is intensely loyal - he would move the Multiverse itself for them if he could find a way. Once naive about the world due to only learning from books, he's seen the great wonders and horrors and _weirdness_ of the Multiverse and become somewhat jaded, though he is still as anxious as ever to learn how it all works. He has a compassionate heart and likes to help those in need, but his eagerness to fight for good has been dulled over the years. After that he left the front lines for a quieter, less combative life. Armed with tools of magic and technology (including mecha) to fight, he was once one of the Union's elite and proud mecha pilots - until one of his friends went crazy and had to be killed for becoming a threat to the Multiverse. Believing any problem can be overcome with science, the young man dreams of a better future for all. Staren is a young superprodigy from the magitech City of Lazlo, with the advanced computer and robotics knowledge of an expert decades his senior.
