Biography
Uldwyn Sov was a male human born in the era of the Golden Age where he was the son of Osana and had a fraternal twin named Mara. The pair were among the 900 crewmembers of the colony ship Yang Liwei where he was part of Project Amrita. The ship was outbound from the Solar System when the Darkness descended on a course for Earth where brought about a catastrophic period for humanity known as the Collapse. This saw the Yang Liwei being engulfed by the black light-negating field broadcasted by the Darkness. To keep it at bay, the Traveler struck out with a beam of Light against its ancient foe. The battle between the two entities resulted in paracausal forces so great that a tear in reality formed that swallowed the Yang Liwei. This saw the crew of the vessel along with all passengers that included Uldwyn being swallowed by it. Rather than be killed, the human crew found themselves in a pocket universe known as the Distributary where they were reborn as a new race known as the Awoken where they had little memory of their prior lives. As an Awoken, Uldwyn Sov took the name Uldren Sov that was a variation of his old identity. He came to be a beloved and long admired figure among the Awoken who had settled in the area in the Solar System known as the Reef. Much of his actions that led to being loved by the people was due to his ties to their Queen Mara. One day, he sought to do something that even his sister could not anticipate and looked to venture onto the Black Garden on Mars. Thus, he travelled alongside his wing-man Jolyon where the pair ventured onto Meridian Bay with them battling Cabal and the Vex. They discovered that an entryway into the Black Garden was through a Vex Gate with Uldren intending to use one such portal. To do so, he looked to trick a Vex Gate Lord into arriving at the scene and open the gateway where he would cause nearby Cabal to kill it. This would allow Uldren and his comrade entry through the gate into the Black Garden where they spent an unknown length of time exploring the location. He came to find it beautiful with Sov feeling a need to protect it from the Guardians of the Last City and to bring his sister Mara to it. Whilst there, a detachment of Cabal were pulled into the location by the Vex where they came to learn the secrets of the Black Garden could 'grow' into a person's body as well as mind. Eventually, Uldren and Joylon departed the Black Garden where they were returned to the Reef with their bodies as well as minds being battered in the process. Meeting with the Queen, he presented a plant that he had taken from the Black Garden with Mara initially being impressed. However, during a private meeting between the pair, she asked about the Garden's hart and was displeased at him ignoring her warning at travelling to the Black Garden. This saw him being disappointed in failing to surprise his sister though he came upon the idea of using a Guardian to delve into the Black Garden and to destroy the heart which would aid in the recovery of the Traveler. Following the meeting with the Queen, he met with Joylon who asked Uldren not to reveal his findings of the Black Garden public knowledge.
Later on, Uldren came to intercept Fallen transmissions that was being broadcasted on all channels. These messages could not be decrypted but the Reef was concerned as indicated a unprecedented level of coordination and cooperation between the Fallen houses. The Techeuns were able to discern that the Fallen were gathering on Earth with the Reef's leadership concluding that the aliens were joining forces in order to conduct a major assault on the Last City. At first, the Reef believed that there was nothing that could be done to prevent this attack but then the House of Wolves came to pass through the asteroid belt where they stopped at Ceres. The Awoken they revealed themselves and attacked the Wolves where Harbingers were deployed to shatter the planetod thus killing half the House of Wolves including its Kell. The Battle of Ceres though was the first trigger that resulted in the Reef Wars as the House of Wolves scattered across the Reef as they split into three factions. Two major losses were suffered by the Awoken at Amethyst and Hygiea with a pyrrhic victory occurring on Iris when Uldren and his Crows managed to crack the Fallen's encryptions. Information gleaned from the intercepted communications allowed Uldren to assist Paladin Imofen Rife in lure Baron Drevis into a trap at the asteroid Bamberga which destroyed her Ketch leading to her capture along with many other high-ranking Fallen. The victory attained though was short-lived as the Awoken fleet was then ambushed by Pirsis who ad gathered a massive fleet to lay siege to the settlement on Pallas. This trapped the Rife's forces for years with the stalemate only broken when Weksis launched a foolhardy assault that failed thus giving the Reef superior numbers against the Fallen. Afterwards, Uldren and the Crows worked with the Techeuns in creating an illusion of Harbingers that scared the Wolves into scattering and allowing for the capture of Pirsis. However, Paladin Rif was noted to had been killed in the battle and died at the hands of the Fallen Captain. It was after the capture of Beltrik at Fortuna Plummet that Uldren was met by one of his Crows bringing a message from a Fallen named Variks who was of the House of Judgment. He provided the Reef with Skolas's plans to assault the military fortress on Cybele with this information allowing him and his lieutenants to be captured thus bring an end to the Reef Wars.
Afterwards, he came to task one of his Crows with watching the entrance to the Black Garden and to follow any that passed through its gate. During this time, it was discovered the Black Heart and the Vex Sol Progeny were growing stronger. Around this time, a new Guardian came to the Reef where they requested an audience with Mara Sov. Uldren though was hostile to this outsider and believed that they should not be allowed to approach the Queen. However, Mara was willing to listen to the Guardian who revealed that they were on a quest for the Black Garden. Uldren though surprised was unimpressed at the Guardian's claims that he was trying to destroying the Darkness that was in the Black Heart. The Queen would suggest that the Lightbearer find a Vex Gate Lord's eye with this satisfying Uldren as he believed the Guardian would die in the attempt. Ultimately, the Guardian returned and to Uldren's surprise he had recovered the Gate Lord's eye. This only angered Uldren further but his feelings on wanting the Guardian being killed led to him being forced to compose himself before his sister. He then complied with her order in giving the eye to the Guardian which led to a path to the Black Garden through a Vex gate on Mars that was situated in the Cabal Exclusion Zone. Months later, the House of Wolves came to stage an open revolt against the Reef after Skolas was freed by the Nine leading to a prison break from the Prison of Elders. He declared himself to be the Kell of Kells where in the aftermath Uldren and the Crows began to gather intelligence on their activities. The Reef's allies were kept appraised of events by the Crows with the Guardian managing to eliminate several members of the Silent Fang who were targeting the leaders of the House of Devils so that Skolas could take over them. Despite this achievement, Uldren warned his sister Mara Sov that the danger had not passed as many of the Silent Fang were still active after having escaped from their prison with his efforts being focused on ensuring that these Fallen were all killed.
