CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS
APPEARANCE: (Art I commissioned from an artist.)
BACKGROUND: Celerous was born to Kress Fark, a Saiyan warrior, and Ruvia Fark, née Liggen, a Human martial artist. At the time Celerous was conceived, both Kress and Ruvia were working out in Wild Space as mercenaries; taking any odd job they could find to make money, and satisfy both of their desires (Kress wanted to fight, and Ruvia wanted to help others where she could.) They both loved to travel, but knowing that Wild Space is no place to raise a child, Kress and Ruvia spent their earnings on a small plot of land. Located only a few hours North of Satan City, Ruvia decided to build a small farm on the land they purchased, and return to her childhood roots by growing cabbages.
Soon after Celerous was born, it was apparent that cabbages alone weren't going to pay for their expenses. After coming to a consensus with her husband, Ruvia, being the stronger of the two, left Earth for Wild Space. Her plan was to take on various odd jobs for a few months a year, send the majority of her money back to the farm, and return to Earth to be with her family for the rest of the year. Rinse and repeat. And on her end, things worked out smoothly. But back on Earth, Kress became quickly overwhelmed with raising a growing child on his own, on top of growing a crop, something he had never done before. Enter Spinch, father of Kress.
With Spinch around, raising Celerous for the few months a year that Ruvia was gone was much more manageable. And once Celerous was old enough to fight (that is five years old, by his father's standards), the two Saiyans took it upon themselves to begin instructing the boy in the art of battle. So began Celerous's strict training regiment; he would wake up before dawn and spar with his father until midday. From there, Celerous would help his grandfather tend to the farm until the sun painted the sky orange. This was his daily schedule, for six days of the week. It was brutal, frustrating, nearly torturous, and the young Celerous relished it all. Even at the tender age of five, Celerous's Saiyan genes demanded to be challenged, and as mundane as it was, fighting and picking cabbages all day worked.
Over the next five years, Celerous would keep to this schedule with rare deviations. Every now and then, when Ruvia was back on Earth, she would take over Celerous's training for a day. She always said she was "ensuring that Kress wasn't slacking off while she was gone." It took two individual training sessions with his mom for Celerous to realize that, despite his father being a pure-blooded Saiyan warrior, his mom was the real fighter in the family. For every punch Kress threw, Ruvia could throw two to three in the same amount of time. His father could crush boulders with his fists, but Celerous had no doubt that his mother could level a mountain with an open palm, if she so desired.
It was never made clear to Celerous as to why, but during his tenth year, Ruvia and Kress swapped jobs. His mom would tend to the farm and continue his training, and his father would begin to take missions in space. With Celerous now grown enough to mostly take care of himself, Ruvia took over most of the farm duties from Grandpa Spinch. Like with his father, Celerous would spend the morning training with his mother, and then help her with the farm work. Grandpa Spinch was, in his own words, "now relegated to housewife and storyteller." Nonetheless, he stayed around to watch Celerous grow up, and continued to instill Saiyan values in his grandson in his son's place.
Then, on the eve of his eleventh birthday, the news arrived. Kress Fark was missing and presumed dead, with only the scraps of his destroyed space pod found. The perpetrator had left no evidence behind, and so no one had a clue as to who was to blame. The family was devastated, and the only silver lining, if you call it that, was that Kress had taken out a life insurance policy on himself. The money they received would be enough to support them, in tandem with their profits from the cabbage crop. It was something Celerous was thankful for; with his father now dead, the last thing he wanted was for his mother to have to leave and make money in his stead.
With his father's passing, Celerous was sure his training would come to an end. After all, what mother would train her child to fight, knowing that fighting is what caused her husband's death? The answer to that question was Ruvia Fark. Not only did Celerous's training continue, it escalated in difficulty. With Kress's passing, Ruvia was determined to turn Celerous into twice the warrior his father was, hoping that Celerous could avoid the man's fate through the acquisition of martial power. And so the next eight years passed quickly, with Celerous's training ramping up in intensity with every coming week.
Celerous didn't mind one bit. In fact, he met the rising challenge with a smile on his face. He had decided to surpass his family long before then.
