Background
Born in 2051, Kurosh had ten years of regular life before the comet. When his change hit, his life fell apart in an instant. His mother couldn't look at him, his own brother attacked him. Without much of a choice, he moved from his lower class lodgings in Tacoma and headed underground. Life in the OU was hard, and the first few years were mostly spent starving, and eating garbage. Despite his appearance, it wasn't something he came to easily. But it was too hard to beg for change with compound eyes and antennae.
After the first couple years, Kurosh met Croak. At the time, Croak was a heavy, working the toughest jobs for the Morlocks. At first, he gave the kid his leftover pizza and stale groceries. Croak eventually found the kid had enough practice sneaking around the Ork Underground to be of some use, and for the next few years, he traded work for food and lodging. Croak taught him to accept himself, while also embracing the possibility of change. Limb replacements seemed a step too far, but Kurosh was all too enthralled by the prospect of 'catching up' with the person he should've been, if he hadn't changed. He should've been faster, stronger, smarter. He should have mastered more than stabbing and skullduggery. Augmentations could bridge that gap.
When he was 16, Kurosh saw his family again. They had long since assumed him dead, and the return was bittersweet. His mother still shunned him. She had worked too hard and too long for the family image to be so ruined. His brother followed suit. His father was kinder. He could not welcome his son back home, so instead he went to where he was. His little sister Safa, who had been born in his absence, was terrified at his ghastly visage. Still, she would learn to accept him in time.
Now that Kurosh was approaching adulthood, Croak felt it was appropriate to bring him into the gang. Instead of a cool nickname, he just ended up getting called what he always ended up getting called -- "The Fly". Still, he was happy for the work, and the brotherhood, and the chance to do something that mattered. Keep people safe, keep the bad guys out of the OU.
Over time, Kurosh worked his way up in the gang, and eventually started taking outside jobs -- Milk Runs and Hooding and the like. Lagoon, who would go on to become the new leader of the Morlocks, put him in contact with an ever widening network of folks in need. He also worked to build a new relationship with his family. His parents separated, his brother moved downtown, but his father and baby sister stayed close by in Tacoma. With Safa now a young adult herself, and their father's health worsening, Kurosh has taken on more and more of a mentorship role with her. Trying to set her on a good path, but one still of her own design. She is currently enrolled in a local community college, trying to plot out her life in the margins of homework.
