Personality: Raiden was shaped into the person he is today by an unstable family life and being stranded in the wilderness. The turmoil of his parents' marriage, however, left Raiden without a dependable source of encouragement or love from a male figure in his life. He learned to deal with his parents' erratic mood swings and coped by learning to predict his parents' behavior. Expecting the unexpected became a talent.
Raiden was probably born with, and at very least was developing into, an `observer' type personality. He is a remarkably observant person, always scrutinizing both others and the environments into which he is placed. This `observer' type personality was developed and heightened by the years he spent in the wilderness by himself. Raiden personality was drastically altered, as he became a recluse.
Raiden finds ordinary, menial jobs a boring waste of his time and talents. He has an objective and anything that distracts or detracts him from this mission is an annoyance. His intuition, however, is his greatest asset. This insight, along with his intense intellectual comprehension and his solutions to even the most complex of problems are stunningly original and often times somewhat visionary.
Much of the time, Raiden’s personality is both passionate and composed. He has an innocent curiosity that when combined with his intellectual depth yields a character that is astoundingly fascinating. He has a vast array of knowledge, which helps him to piece together ideas that would not often be associated with each other. In terms of emotional sensitivity, Raiden is unsurpassed, with a specific talent for empathizing with other people's pain. Despite his addictive personality, Raiden remains very independent, which renders him somewhat unconventional, nearly to the point of eccentricity.
He is courageous; he fearlessly charges into dangerous situations, leaving little time to think of his won well-being. This means he tends to be a bit reckless, putting other people's well being above his own. He would gladly risk his health to achieve his goals. Raiden physically fit, which is a very useful tool and he has incredible stamina--he's able to go for days at a time without sleeping.

History: Melissa Mathisen was born in Oslo, Norway on June 1st 1953 to a father who was a famous shipbuilder and a mother who was a nurse. When Melissa turned 18, she asked her parents to allow her to attend college in the United States, they granted her wish and she ended up going California to study to become a lawyer. It was that she meant and ended up dating Noah Harkness. A year later on a trip to Las Vegas, they tied the knot. A few months later, their marriage would end when Noah told her he wanted to move to Alaska and she refused to leave college to follow him.
It was a month later after the marriage ended, she found out she was with child. Months later, she would go into labor almost three months early. None of the doctors thought her child would live longer than a week but the little one she called Raiden would prove everyone wrong…
By the time he was five years old, he was excelling and growing faster than those of his same age. Over the span of his primary and secondary schooling, he was skipping grades and moving up faster. Seeing how much his mother was working towards her dream and how hard she studied, he didn’t want to disappoint her so he studied just as hard thus allowing him to be able to skip said grade levels. When he or his mother wasn’t studying they were spending time out on the beach or on the water. It was their escape from life.
When he was 14 years old and had just finished high school. His father wanted him to head up to Alaska and spend the summer out there. Against Raiden’s protest, his mother made him go so he could get some quality time with a male figure. It was on a small airport in Canada that his life was about to change… little did Raiden know that as he boarded the small single engine airplane with an older pilot.
It was about the midway point when the pilot would suffer a stroke and it forced Raiden to try and fly the plane him self... It was a massive struggle for him and he ended up putting the plane down into a lake. After barely escaping the plane with a bag and the survival kit, he swam to the shoreline and crawled out from the water. An hour or two had passed where just laid there recovering and processing everything that happened before he dumped out his bags to see what he had to work with. The transmitter that was in the survival kit was smash from the crash and he just tossed that aside.
Knowing he needed something to protect him until help came he sat up a couple of branches with a layer of pine branches on top of the other branches. Raiden sat there by shoreline, stretching out what he had with him food wise as he waited for the help that never came. Always looking up at the sky or staring at the lake wondering if this was going to be the end of him. He didn’t know where he was or how he was going to make it.
The days passed into weeks with no sign of search and rescue planes… the weeks turned into months. Slowly over the course of time Raiden learned and discovered ways to live off the land and even moved into a empty cave not far from the lake, his only known source of water and he didn’t want to risk wondering too far from it. He had lived in those woods, facing life and death many of times. From animal attacks to Mother Nature and even the freezing cold winters that were cold enough to explode trees.
It wasn’t until three years later that a research scientist who was tracking a pack of wolves stumbled across his cave. In which Raiden had come out of know where, almost ready to attack the intruder until it dawned on him that it was another human being… The scientist, Joe Sheridan couldn’t believe what he came across. After spending the night at Raiden’s cave, Sheridan heard everything that happened to Raiden that brought him to the spot he was in and spend. On the trek back to Joe’s starting point, he filled Raiden in on what he would need to know to get adjust to what would be coming next.
Over the next few days, Raiden got to talk to his mother again and face lots of questions from the authorities. Then came the swarm of the press soon as they found the hotel where he was staying. Which didn’t help him adjust to his life back among society at all. Everything was so loud, busy and strange. Nothing was a struggle anymore…
Raiden would take almost another year to get use to life outside of the wilderness and he was never the same kid as he was before. In that year, him and his mother moved back to Norway away so Raiden could have access to less crowded areas and to escape the press. His days during that year were spent one studying, getting ready for college and out on the farm or even in the woods near by.

Raiden chose to go off to college back in Japan, feeling it was the only place he could escape to where he could focus on his studies and excel without being in a city. Over the next four years, he spent time earning his college degree and working odd jobs when not in school. Once he earned his degree. He applied at a bunch of schools and took the first one that came in.
