A graduate from the School of Applied Knowledge, Tori Aanai stands as one of many lessons about the dangerous freedom that capsuleer technology bestows. Shortly after her graduation, Aanai found herself deployed deep inside Stain. She was guarding what was to become a failed attempt by the Poksu Mineral Group to uncover mineral riches in a system they wrongly assumed was unexploited.

From that point on, she has been linked to countless illegal activities.
