I don't know English well, but I'll try to somehow tell you a small part of the story of one of my fan characters - Orion
Orion is the same purebred Viltrumite as his parents, his mother is Trisha, and his father is Thragg. Orion and his younger sister were not desired children for their mother, but for their father they were no more than combat units, differing from other relatives only in their "noble" lineage. (Not in terms of the fact that any of them had the blood of Emperor Argall, but in terms of the fact that Trisha and Thragg were the strongest of the representatives of their race)
From the very birth, the twins were isolated from their mother and were brought up by specially designated Viltrumites, first by nannies, and later by teachers. Thragg was the only parent who at least somehow figured in the childhood of Orion and his sister, and then only in order to subject the children to his own influence as a regent. It goes without saying that the idea of an "ideal, strong society" was imposed on Orion and his sister, as well as on other Viltrumites, and since Orion and his sister were born after the civil war and the ascension of their father to the throne... Not that they had any choice but to renounce their own feelings and be unquestioningly loyal to Viltrum. They knew about the mother only from the words of the father, who told about her as a worthless traitor doomed to death.
Orion and his sister were very different in character, Orion was quiet and unspoken, leaving a satisfactory impression on his father as "cold-blooded and focused", and his sister was emotional and loud, which at first annoyed Thragg, in the future the regent managed to channel the features of his daughter's character to his advantage, as a result of which the girl was forced to find joy in violence against subjects who opposed Viltrum. Observing the changes in his sister, not only doubts, but also horror began to creep into Orion's head, but since Thragg encouraged such a thing, and noticing even a hint of doubt, he immediately raised his voice and reprimanded... Orion simply did nothing, suppressing inside himself all thoughts and feelings that were unfavorable to his father.
Of course, the brother and sister repeatedly witnessed how the weak perished and the strong survived, even despite the fact that the empire was relatively calm.
Orion and his sister face their mother already as adults, before the destruction of their home planet. Watching Trisha, Orion wonders why she is still alive despite Thragg's words, why she is so confident in her beliefs and actions. In response to Orion's questions, Trisha manages to sow doubt in his head with her actions and words, and also bring out all the doubts and fears that the young man previously suppressed. Trisha does not ironically mock her son, calling him cowardly and weak, and then declares that sooner or later he will simply lose his mind like his father and sister... That Orion will kill himself.
The young man remains completely bewildered, but still begins to think about his mother's words.
Orion still remains in the ranks of the empire, but decides to tell his sister about his encounter with Trisha, because of which they have a conflict, the girl chases her brother away, and then informs her father.
Not wanting to fight with his sister, Orion flees to Earth in search of his mother, but becomes an involuntary witness to her conversation with Allen about spraying the "dirty" virus on Earth. The young man falls into despair, unsuccessfully trying to convey to his mother that the beginning of the epidemic is not a way out, that in the ranks of the Viltrumites there are those who could take her side, like him, for example, but Trisha does not listen to her son. Orion leaves once again, avoiding a fight... Realizing his own position and that he has been used all this time, the young man falls into depression.
Yes, in the end, Orion had to unite with Mark and his father in order to save the people and the Viltrumites, but in the end he still ended up between two fires, Trisha got angry with him, and Thragg refused to take his son back.
Orion disappears for some time before the expulsion of Thragg, but then returns. Nolan, who became the rightful emperor, allows the guy to return. Orion's sister harbors a grudge against the new emperor, but she also refuses to help her father, now considering him a weakling, since he lost to someone as pitiful as Nolan, who spared him and simply let him go.
Trisha returns to the coalition of planets, where she was before.
I'm too lazy, but this is enough as his minimal background, so I'm gone.
