Character Profile: Deputy Rian

Rian was born on a farm-state on the planet Nagosti. He worked hard on the farm while his father taught him ways of the trade as his mother educated him with manners and speech. When he was of the right age, he was to go the nearest Initiative Center where he would chose a career and undergo the ritual to be bonded with the tegarei of his choice.
But his choice was soon made for him. Shortly before he left, a group of disorderly off-worlders had wandered onto the farm and accidently caused the destruction of the farm. While no one was harmed, he decided to become a Security Officer, rather than a farmer. And after a year of training, he returned from the ancient Ritual of Destiny, bearing the crimson tegarei of the Security Branch.
Soon after, Security Chief Violeen would retire and promote her deputy Keann to fill the position. This made her the third most powerful Nagostian on the planet, after Mother, leader of all, and the newly initated Sara, Ambassador of Harmony and the only honorary Nagostian. Some say that Keann was resentful that if Sara had undergone her own Ritual of Destiny weeks later, then Keann would have been Mother's favorite.
But what really matters is that Keann had to appoint a new deputy as her second. She searched through all of the academies. None of the candidates pleased her, no matter how experienced they were. It was only a matter of chance that Keann would stumble upon Rian. Rian had been called in to subdue some rioting off-worlders, protesting about Nagostian policy of neutrality.
No one knows why she offered him the position after seeing him in action. Her only response to questions refering to the moment were vague like, "He seemed to have potential."
Now, Rian is the deputy officer answering only to Keann herself. His youth sometimes clouds his judgements, but his instincts are a hundred percent accurate. Oddly enough, he is very friendly with Sara's human friend, Zoey and is happy to find that not all off-worlders are as bad as he thought.
