Yang Xi

Yang Xi was a sixteen year old orphan from the Solar Coalition's southern Chinese industrial and political region. Arrested when he was thirteen for theft, Yang was left to rot in an over-populated government prison until he was selected to participate in the Renewal Project, which used convicted prisoners as test subjects for experimental drugs, medical procedures, and technology. While there, he befriended fellow prisoner Simon and together they plotted to escape from the orbital facility, Gateway, where the project was based.
