Biography

Early Life

Dylan Hunt was a citizen of the Systems Commonwealth, the greatest civilization in the known Vuytti universe, born to a Heavy Gravity Worlder mother and a human father (later revealed to be a disguised Paradine) in the city of Visharna-Tarn on the Commonwealth capital world Tarn-Vedra. His mother was employed as a local shuttle pilot and his father a garderner at the planet's Imperial Gardens. Growing up Hunt encountered many species, most notably the Vedrans, the founders of the Commonwealth who other races viewed with near deific status. As an adult he joined the planet's local Homeguard Defense Force, and later became an officer in the Systems Commonwealth's elite armed service branch known as the High Guard. There he quickly worked up the ranks, spending two years as an enlisted man before becoming an officer after graduating from the High Guard training academy. Around this time, Dylan met Constanza Stark, the High Guard's Fleet Admiral and Chief Executive and sparked a longstanding friendship with Stark acting as a valued mentor.

After becoming part of the High Guard officer corps, Hunt was chosen by Stark to work in the High Guard's special forces unit known as Argosy Special Operations as a Lieutenant Commander, and on a later tour of duty he commanded the Crimson Eclipse, an Asceticism of Action class Low Observable Special Warfare craft. He also completed post-graduate stints at the Antares Command Lyceum and the Imperial Strategy College on Tarn-Vedra.

300 Years in the future

Dylan was awakened when his ship was pulled out of the event horizon by a salvage crew in the CY 10088 (1560 N.E.) by then he discovered the Commonwealth had fallen, the known universe he fought for fell into an age of anarchy called The Long Night until much of it fell under the rule of a powerful faction known as the Axis of Empires, or some call the Tyrants due to their rule and conquest over the many races,

Restoration of the Commonwealth

With the growing threat of the Magog and the Axis beginning their assault to attack the known Vuytti worlds, Dylan realised how much of a threat they pose, especially the Axis upon discovering their ability to travel between universes. Discovered an Alliance that are at war with them and accepted their help to restore the Systems Commonwealth and bring the worlds who were forced into joining the Axis to revolt and side with the Allies and the Commonwealth. In his second year, Dylan discovered the kast remnants of the Commonwealth were spared with the help of one of the Allied members and waited for his return one day for 300 years.

Quotes

• First time hearing about the Combine: “Soyour saying that these... Combine as they call themselves have somehow came out of nowhere and began their conquest of the known worlds. I don’t know who they are, but that won’t stop me from restoring the Systems Commonwealth, or die trying if inspires a spark of hope.”
• To the Star Destroyers: “Time we teach this Galactic Empire they made the big mistake to try and invade my reality, so why don’t we show them what this ship is made of.”
