Early story (From Character Bio)

On a moonlit night deep in the Northwood Forest on Animus, the six years old vixen is woken up by a Wolven warrior entering her clan’s territory. The warrior began to attack her clan and Krystal’s father urged her to run and to not turn back in order to hide. 

She spent the night hidden by the roots of a giant tree, and as soon as day broke out she traced by her steps to find her family, but was found by a Wolven male, Randorn, who explained to her that her family had been killed by someone.

The child, now an orphan, is reassured by the adult Wolven who wants to take care of her. It was he who gave her the name Krystal.

Character Bio

The characters' biographies were leaked (with other promotional material such as official renders, condensed story and gameplay footage) on the website RareThief in September 2012. All bios are dated for the year 2000.

It’s worth mentioning though, not all character’s information and trivia are present in the December 1, 2000 prototype. These were probably written pretty early on the development of the game to summarize each character but were not really changed after the game’s story many changes and evolution. (i.e : Krystal backstory not being mentioned except she was adopted by Randorn or Krystal’s crush on Sabre even though they are siblings.)
