Kaian “Raven” Montclair was born aboard the spaceship Last Frontier to a family with noble Exohuman roots. His surname, Montclair, carries historical significance from Earth, symbolizing leadership and distinction.

After the crash landing of Last Frontier on VOI 700-D, Kaian's family was granted land by the Free State of Settlers to establish a farm. During the Great War, Kaian fought for his people as part of the Volunteer Army of Man. Known for his keen observational skills, Kaian earned the nickname “Raven” from his comrades, who admired his ability to detect enemy movements, anticipate ambushes, and guide his unit through perilous situations. Just as ravens are symbols of intelligence and vigilance, Kaian’s perceptiveness became a vital asset on the battlefield.

After the Exohuman army's surrender, Kaian returned home, hoping to rebuild his life. Instead, he found his family dead—murdered by Outlaws who had raided the remains of their farm. This tragedy became a defining moment in his life, driving Kaian to seek justice for his family. However, the Outlaws responsible remain free, haunting his resolve and fueling his determination to protect others from similar fates.

Determined to make a difference, Kaian applied for a position in the Federal Sheriff's Department through the GAIA system. His acceptance marked the start of a new chapter in his life, one focused on restoring order and safeguarding the vulnerable. Assigned to escort and protect the caravans of the Federal Courier Service, Kaian ensures their safe passage through the volatile landscapes of VOI 700-D. His methods are often unconventional, blending disciplined law enforcement with insights gained from observing the Native Tribes.

Despite his professional success, Kaian remains driven by the hope of one day bringing the Outlaws who destroyed his family to justice. His sharp intellect, strategic mind, and unwavering commitment make him a steadfast protector of the Federal Confederation and its people.
