Fiction

IDW Generation 1 continuity

Sunder used to be a world-class mnemosurgeon, until his life took a drastic turn for the worse in a undisclosed moment of his life, going on massive killing sprees under his new name, The Tetrahex Ripper.

At some point, he was detained and sentenced to Garrus 6 for maximum security containment. Following his arrest, he developed a new skill: Remote Mnemosurgery, which allowed him to probe through his victim's mind without even touching them. He simultaneously acquired an "appetite" for memories obtained this way, the darker the better. During transport, he used his talent to make the guards forget to lock the doors, allowing him to escape. Reuniting with his brother Sceptre along the way, the two attempted to escape aboard a shuttle, taking Froid hostage to ensure their safety. The shuttle was brought down regardless, taking Sceptre's life. Following the death of his spark-brother, Sunder made a deal with Froid: if Froid helped him cope with Sceptre's death and kept him fed, Sunder would help Froid with his work.

During his time inside Froid's ship, he used art as a way to express himself. Being a big fan of the Guiding Hand, his art came in the form of "Mortilus" and "the death bringer" scrabbled in various dialects across the ship's walls.
