BIOGRAPHY

Jade grew up in the poor streets of Hyllis where she quickly acquired

self-defense skills and a strong sense of human solidarity.  She has

never known her parents and was raised by her adoptive uncle, Pey'j. 

Jade identifies with the orphans that she looks after who have lost their own

parents during a string of alien attacks that have plagued the planet Hyllis. 

Jade is an action-reporter who has been recruited by a rebel organization called

IRIS.  Her mission is to submit investigative reports and photographs to reveal

a conspiracy fueled by the government of Hyllis - a government that uses media

propaganda to control and deceive its people.

Jade will fight against prejudice and propaganda, in the name of her people,

and for the right to know truth - beyond the certainties of what is good and

what is evil.

Game Description:

The planet of Hyllis has fallen under siege by a ruthless alien race. Despite the assurances of the Alpha Section defense squad, the war drags on, terrorizing the once-beautiful planet and crushing the faith of the people. From the rubble of a tiny island rises Jade - a rebellious young action reporter left traumatized by a brutal attack. When Jade is hired by the rebel organization IRIS, she learns that the Alpha Sections are secretly trafficking humans to the enemy. Still wary of who to believe, she sets out to expose the gruesome conspiracy and bring proof to her people.

Armed with her camera, dai-jo staff, and unflinching resolve, Jade plunges into a sinister web to untangle the truth and restore justice to her planet. But as she earns the trust of her beleaguered people, Jade discovers that sometimes, in order to find the truth, you must look beyond good and evil.
