Peopel

In the past, the Peopel were hunted and poached by inhabitants of Yai for their scales, which could be retooled into near indestructible armor for soldiers. This was considered highly dangerous and also highly political — as such a technological innovation could potentially create super soldiers and would certainly plunge the planet into war time.

The Peopel are a highly intellectual and sophisticated species with their own cultures and societies which were distinctly separate from the Kingdom of Yai, making the hunting and poaching committed against them a hotly-debated ethical issue. This all happened way before Yesterday Man was born, but it is connected to him. During the time Eons Foreyonder was still a young, fledgling King of Yai, he ordered his men to hunt and capture Peopel — in order to display the true extent of his political power for the first time. Farren Height, the village elder of the Zeal Society, although it still wasn't invented yet, foresaw the potential tyranny that could plague Yai were Eons to obtain the scales. In an attempt to preserve the wildlife of Yai, he placed Eons on trial — to which Eons obliges. All the judges, jury, and lawyers at the trail are actually Eon's Royal subjects. Eons rigged the trial. This trial — dubbed "the Peopel Trial — concludes with Farren Height being exiled to the corners of Yai indefinitely. It is at these corners where he decides to eventually create the Secret Zeal Society.

To this day, there remains only one of the Peopel left. This Persun is known as Huemin. Huemin was the first Persun, as well as the last. Nobody alive is older than Huemin, so nobody knows where he came from, or who exactly he is. The story of the Peopel Trials is known by a very very small number of people because Huemin feels no need to tell it, as he has completely forgiven the Foreyonder Family. To make things worse, anyone who did know of the Peopel Trials had their memories of it retroactively erased when Millenius Foreyonder decided to erase the event from history with his Zeal Signature: "The Truth's Farewell."

Huemin is biologically and physically immortal. He can never die, nor can be killed.

Though he may never say it, Huemin's proudest moment was when he defied Bird Marrone's Road 2 Hell during one of the bird's infamous "pocket errands."
