No one is sure where Yorken is from, but what is known is that in his homeworld he was a highly decorated veteran sergeant.

Brutally scarred by years of space combat, Yorken bears the telltale marks of spasm-rifles - a particularly savage weapon that uses electric bolts to cause excruciating muscle spasms.

Silent, dour and grim, since coming to earth Yorken has found it hard to adjust, being so radically different from the multitude of species he is now surrounded by.
He belongs to the race known as the Jarmorn, a space faring people who engineered themselves into warriors many millennia ago in order to survive a dreadful threat.

Towering over all at 8 feet, Yorken has a deep, dreading suspicion about the being known as The Obliterator, and is determined to bring it to heel intact and alive.
As a warrior, he is not known for his expressiveness and is blunt to the point of rudeness. His normally dour demeanour also conceals a terrifying bloodlust which occasionally surfaces in battle.

Mercifully, he also has many redeeming qualities - he is without greed or pretension, and does seem to have a genuine sense of compassion towards the vulnerable and a paternal desire to protect them.
