Not much is known about the man named Bomber Harris. He arrived in Guardia one night via a heretofore (and as since) undiscovered dimensional gate. His spacecraft, a one-man starfighter, crashed in the Keldark Valley north of Port Banteau. The crash gave him a serious bump on the head, and left him stricken with amnesia. All he could remember was his name and the natural color of his eyes, which is brown. However, something -- presumably thaumaturgic (magical) energy -- caused his eyes instead to turn a faintly luminescent shade of blue-green, or "Indi-Glo" as some have been known to call it.

Found and kept safe by the GEACS for a couple of days following his arrival, Harris' presence was made known to the Guardian Ministry of Defense. As his spacecraft did not match any known configuration, and since his identification was encrypted in a code that has not been broken (so far as it is known), Harris was labeled a possible spy, and Deputy Defense Minister Alastair Brand ordered Harris incarcerated at Valleyville.

While in Valleyville, Harris' memories remained stubbornly locked away, although a talent with mechanics got him assigned to the garage and motor pool. He befriended a few other prisoners, notably Martin Olethros -- a devout Spekkian -- and Will Singer and Benjamin Glass -- two former OmniSenters. He also attracted the attention of the likes of Malismo the Eye-Reaper, who found him somewhat intriguing.

Harris has been known to have dreams featuring a couple of strange "spirits," one malign and one benign. The malevolent one has since left him be, while the other -- who Harris thinks of as "The Gardener" -- has bestowed some form of protection upon him. This protection became most apparent during the recent riot in Valleyville, when Malismo's Defiling Magic failed to harm Harris in any way. Harris, driven by a vision of the Gardener, fought to stop Malismo's rampage and escape, but was stopped by Brer Rabbey's Vodoun magic and suffered numerous injuries in the fighting.

He remains incarcerated at Valleyville, and his memories remain locked.
