Beckandanath, whose name meant Lord of the planet Beck, had spent much of his life running analysis of the planet Beck in the nearby system of AUM-88512. In fact, his parents final act was to name him after this obscure planet, right before their death.

They had spent much of their adult lives madly in love, knowing that when they would die, it would be to bring someone new into the universe. Someone to leave all their accumulated knowledge and the future propagation of not only their genetic information, but also the continuation of the research they had each dedicated their lives to.
