His family was practically impoverished, being immigrants from the Stargazer Theocracy and struggling to work enough hours to sustain their household. Yumi grew up poor throughout all of his childhood and teenage years, but he proved to be an excellent student, taking accelerated courses and embracing as many academic opportunities and challenges as public education could offer him. When he graduated, the reality of his financial situation hindered him, as his family had only grown in the time it took him to come of age. He couldn't travel anywhere, a higher education would take too much time to complete, and the typical jobs that were available to him didn't pay enough. To get as much money as he could as fast as he could, he enlisted with his planet's defense force as a combat medic and sought higher education on the side. Although he saw no combat, he completed four years of service before his contract was over, sending almost all of the pixels he earned back to his household. After his contract expired, he continued to aspire, looking instead towards the highest risk highest reward option: Mercenary work. He was taken from his planet to participate in whatever fight he was told to participate in, all the while still sending the majority of his spoils back home, the cycle of working to provide only persisting throughout the years. As he reached his thirties, he had all but accomplished his initial goal. His home's situation reached relative stability, but even so, he continued to work and send money back, striving to make whatever relatives he had as comfortable as he could, even if he'd never get the chance to meet them in person. Part of it was truly wanting the best for his family back home, another was that he'd found work that made him feel happy. In no other field would he get such a rush, in addition to the satisfaction of saving lives. Now, unbeholden to any organization, he traveled to the fringe to seek his next adventure.
