Lars Bren

Lars Bren is the sister of Octavia Bren and the last members of their family. He was absorbed into the Xel'Naga artifact.

Biography
When Lars and Octavia were very young, their parents died in a freak storm. They grew up alone on their farm. When he was nearing the settlement's consideration of adulthood, he was asked by many women to be their husband but he made excuses for each one.

During the biggest storm in history, the siblings find a mysterious object inside a mountain with strange crystals nearby. But upon touching it, was apparently destroyed by the object. Scared, Octavia runs into to town to warn everyone. But Lars' "death", caused the object to fire a message into space, alerting Zerg and Protoss to Bhekar Ro's location.

In the aftermath of the Terran-Zerg-Protoss battle, the object turned out to be a Xel'Naga creature that required energy from both Protoss and Zerg to fully evolve. Lars' absorption was an accident, the creature didn't need Terran DNA, so it rejected him and the Terran marines it accidentally absorbed, bringing back their physical bodies. Lars was reunited with his sister. When they got back to Free Haven, he proposes to Cyn McCarthy on the spot.
