Ymir Terran was born with a genetic disorder that grew worse as she became older, so her father put her into a capsule, only taking her out occassionally to perform tests and run scans. Ylva was cloned/creared to both make it so it appeared Ymir was out and about but more so to perform illegal testing on her body so that a drug could be found that would work on Ymir and stop the disease. At some point the trials were too much and Ylva's mind broke and Ylva/Ymir's mother helped her escape and she was found by Asarar. After a while Ylva found her way back to Ymir and the sister were reunited and being close back to her sister helped awaken Ymir.
Being near Ylva helped Ymir for many years and for now it would appear she does not need her, likely due to many tests she has done on herself. Ymir - despite being stunted due to being in the capsule for so long and at first being childlike despite being older - was quite intelligent and even found a cure to the Fauna heat genetic problem, curing herself of it and many others who wanted the drug, so that they would not be used anymore. She trained herself in many concepts, having a ravenous desire to learn more and more, but having a child like aspect of her, would easily be hurt or feel snubbed if someone would make a comment.
After the Geyze/Kumen incidents were resolved and Ylva went into politics, one of her last allies in her corner, Ymir has not been seen as much anymore, buying out all the Corporations in the Kumen Capital as the people have been leaving the huge city and spreading out across the planet. With the city having lost 3/4ths of it's population and the lower levels barely having anymore there to help run the stuff needed for the upper levels, Ymir did a hostile take over of many of the 7 Corporations, leaving her in control of the majority along with Twilight and Shiki with the clothes Corportion.
She has tied herself closely to Riki and become the main supplier of Kumen's many projects and Macross has risen up rapidly, likely due to Ylva being the Vice President and Riki being an old friend. |
