Character Biography

As an Inhuman, San grew up on Attilan, their home world on the moon. He believed that when he stepped into the gas, it would decide he should be a member of the Royal Guard, as his father and grandfather were (this belief was discouraged, as children usually did not try to decide on a career choice ahead of time, to save themselves disappointment). When he emerged from the gas however, he changed into a smaller, yellow-skinned creature who would be an artist. His disappointment was made greater when his friend, Alaris, turned into a member of the Royal Guard. As an artist, San could make beautiful sculptures. When Medusa decided to attempt to integrate the Inhumans back into Earth society, she handpicked several to spend at least a year there, including San and Alaris. On Earth, San faced discrimination for the way he looked. He got a job shelving books in a library and dated a girl named Stacey, deciding eventually that he wished to stay on Earth with her.
