I have nothing to do with it...

Torn nourrit une haine incommensurable contre tout ceux qui avaient un lien avec Damas. Voyant le talent de Torn et cette haine qui faisait sa particularité, Praxis monta très vite Torn en grade, jusqu'à devenir son bras droit (place qu'aura à la suite Erol)
Au début de son règne, Praxis n'a pas encore totalement confiance en Erol, adopté de Damas, qui se dit pourtant traître du Roi et a déjà prouvé sa loyauté à Praxis. Ayant une totale confiance en Torn et connaissant ses talents militaires, Praxis l'engage comme "tuteur" du soldat Erol (afin de mieux le surveiller)
Au début de leur relation, Torn se montrera très dur et strict envers Erol, qu'il qualifie de arrogant et méprisant. On peut dire qu'au départ aucun des deux ne s'apprécient et ne soient d'accord pour une quelconque alliance. Mais après de nombreuses missions et batailles, Torn et Erol entretiendront une certaine complicité (n'allant pas jusqu'à s'appeler une profonde amitié)

Mais plus les jours passaient, plus la passion de Torn pour Praxis s'amenuisait. La guerre contre les Metal Heads durait, les promesses de Praxis pour assurer la survie et le bien-être des citoyens n'étaient pas tenues, au contraire Torn apprenait l'existence de répressions violente, sanglante et autoritaire. Se rendant compte de la dictature de Praxis, Torn décida de prendre du recul, devenant plus négligeant sur sa tenue, son apparence (se laissant pousser les cheveux par exemples), ses missions, son poste etc.... au désarroi du Baron.
Cependant il ne quitta pas la Grenagarde.... jusqu'à un certain jour qu'il n'oubliera jamais et qui décida de son destin.
Voyant que les Metal Heads prenaient de plus en plus de terrain et se rapprochaient de plus en plus de la ville, c'est à ce moment là que le Baron Praxis eut l'idée de faire un pacte avec eux. Etant son bras droit, Torn fut témoin de cette alliance vaine.

De plus, Praxis a entre construit de nouveaux murs qui séparé la Ville Morte actuelle du reste de la ville, malgré les réticences de Torn (qui se doutait que Praxis manigançait quelque chose de terrible) Lors d'une attaque massive des MH, Praxis abandonna littéralement la partie de la ville qui se trouvait en dehors des nouveaux murs. Il laissa les portes ouvertes que quelques minutes, laissant que très peu de gens se régufier dans Abriville même. Il ordonna aux Grenagardes de fermer les portes, voyant les réfugiés trop nombreux... et les MH se rapprochaient... Les parents de Torn, et sa fille Shana qu'ils gardaient lorsqu'il était en service, se trouvaient encore à l'extérieur des nouveaux murs. Il n'y aucun survivant.

Mais avant que le pacte avec les MH n'est pu aboutir, Torn se sépara complètement de l'idéologie de Praxis, le traitant de fou et de traître à la ville. Il ira voir personnellement Praxis pour lui dire enfin sa façon de penser. Fou de rage comme il ne l'a jamais était face à la trahison de son propre commandant, Praxis veut le faire condamner à mort afin de garder le secret. 
Absolument enragé, comprenant enfin toute l'histoire et à quel point il avait été aveugle, Torn voulu assassiner tout de suite Praxis... mais Erol arriva juste à ce moment, et l'en empêcha.
Erol arrêta Torn et le conduisit jusqu'en prison... du moins c'est ce qu'il aurait du faire. En chemin, Erol ordonna Torn de le frapper violemment afin de faire croire à tous que Torn (plus fort physiquement qu'Erol) avait réussit à s'échapper (ce qui explique le dessin)


Pfiou.... longue histoire, qui explique certaines choses, mais crée d'un autre côté d'autres questions encore :] Il me semblait nécessaire de bien expliquer le passé de Torn, qui lui aussi a souffert.
Ainsi, cela explique son aversion pour l'Eco Noire (cf. Jak V) et pourquoi il est si froid, mystérieux et cynique dans Jak II.
Peu de gens connaissent l'histoire de Torn.

PS: OMG.... la taille du roman @_@

Just had me to do a drawing on the departure of Torn from the Krimzom Guard... and take the opportunity to explain his past (according to my view of things ) ...

Before my novel to recount his past, some explanation of the drawing.
It is Torn leaving theKrimzon Guard in front the eyes of Erol (the one we see that quarter ^^) Why leave he the Krimzon Guard? Explanation just after the details.
For uniform of Torn I am very inspired by this drawing a4.ec-images.myspacecdn.com/im… I find the idea genial. The mixture of uniform of Krimzon Guard and the clothes of Torn that you see in games ... just perfect!
For the helmet held by Erol, it is the mask commander of Torn,this is why it is very similar to that known of Erol but not the same. Undoubtedly every important commander have own helmet. It did not go without saying that the golden decorations I was inspired helmet that can be seen on the same drawing that I served as a model: I have not taken the same because it is the only point negative of the concept (in my humble opinion): I find it did not fit with the rest of the uniform. It is for this reason that in my version, it is more similar to Erol ^^
The hair of Torn is medium because as being Krimzon Guard he had to military cut version but is increasingly failing, he lets his hair grow. According to him, long hair are more proof of his total separation with Praxis (being very strict about the appearance of his soldiers)
I also hope that you recognized the Palace Square of Haven City ... with the fountain which I am extremely proud. I have found many successful the water (I do not like to give me praise, I feel like taking a big head :/ .... but hey, I admit that now I'm really happy me ^^ ")

Now story of Torn. Why he was really left the KG? Why squarely joined the Undergrounds? He could very well just leave KG and live another quieter life ... Why past from pro-Praxis to anti-Praxis as suddenly? If he wanted nothing more to do with Praxis, why did he choose to fight him now?

Here's my vision of how the why: Torn had a wife, Kailin, which he was very much in love and with whom he had a daughter, Shana (yes UuU) During the putsch of Praxis against King Damas, civil war broke out in Haven City even among pro-Damas and pro-Praxis. Torn and Kailin was Pro-Praxis, and therefore took part in combat. During a "pause" in a part of the still quiet town, Torn warned that he wanted her to come home, find Shana which was guarded by the brother of Torn ( Rhys ) ( I say this for details because yes , I can see Torn have a brother ^^) But Kailin refuses to leave her husband, ironic about the fact that without her he is bullshit, she remains by his side no matter what happens (we see a true fusion between them) Torn smiled at her, he turns her back for a moment because he is not serene in the knowledge danger. Time to think it, he heard a shot: a stray bullet .... affecting Kailin in the chest. She dies in his arms.
Anyway, Torn was completely torn (that explains all) by this loss . He will never recover (so his temperament so cold that we know in games ) One more reason to join Praxis .
Torn feeds immeasurable hatred against all those who had a relationship with Damas. Seeing the talent of Torn and hatred that made his particularity, Praxis went Torn quickly through the ranks , becoming his right arm ( like Erok after)
At the beginning of his reign, Praxis has not yet fully trust Erol, adopted by Damas, which says however traitor of the King and has already proven his loyalty to Praxis. With total confidence knowing Torn and his military talents, Praxis hired him as " guardian " of the soldier Erol ( in order to better monitor him )
At the beginning of their relationship, Torn will be very hard and strict with Erol , he called him arrogant and dismissive. We can say that any departure of the two do appreciate and are willing to any alliance. But after numerous missions and battles, Torn and Erol will maintain a certain complicity ( not going to be called a deep friendship )

But the days passed , and more passion of Torn for Praxis dwindled. The war against the Metal Heads lasted, Praxis promises to ensure the survival and well -being of citizens were not required , instead Torn learned the existence of violent , bloody and authoritarian repression. Realizing the dictatorship of Praxis , Torn decided to take a step back , becoming neglecting its holding his appearance ( letting the hair grow for example) , his responsibilities, position etc .... to the dismay of the Baron.
However he did not leave the KG .... until a certain day he will never forget and who decided his fate.
Seeing that the Metal Heads were becoming more ground and approached more and more of the city , it is then that Baron Praxis had the idea to make a pact with them. As his right arm, Torn witnessed this vain alliance.
In addition , Praxis between building new walls that separate the current Dead Town the rest of the city, despite the reluctance of Torn ( who doubted Praxis up to something terrible ) In a massive attack of MH , Praxis abandoned literally the part of the city that was outside the new walls. He left the door open a few minutes, leaving very few people even to rescape in Haven City. He ordered KG to close the doors , seeing too many refugees ... and MH approached ... The parents of Torn , and his daughter Shana they kept when he was in service, were still outside the new walls. There are no survivors.
But before the pact with the MH is able to lead , Torn separated completely from the ideology of Praxis , calling him crazy and a traitor to the city. He will personally see Praxis to say finally his thinking . Enraged as he has never faced the betrayal of his own commander , Praxis wants to be condemned to death to keep the secret.
Absolutely furious , finally having the whole story and how he had been blind, Torn to assassinate immediately Praxis ... but Erol arrived just at that moment, and stopped him.
Erol stopped Torn and led until jail ... at least that's what he should have done . Along the way, Erol ordered Torn to strike violently him to make everyone believe that Torn ( stronger physically than Erol ) had managed to escape (which explains the drawing)


Phew .... long story, which explains some things, but on the other hand creates other issues still :] It seemed necessary to explain the past of Torn, who also suffered.
Thus, this explains his aversion to Black Eco (see Jak V) and why it is so cold, mysterious and cynical in Jak II.
Few people know the history of Torn.

PS: OMG .... size novel @_@
