Perhaps the most famous hero in the StarCraft Universe, [B]Jim Raynor's[/B], official biography and profile has been introduced on [url=http://starcraft2.com]StarCraft2.com[/url]. You may remember that at Blizzcon, Raynor and his crew were the stars of the single-player campaign demo. Evidently, since the end of the Brood War, Raynor has fallen on hard times. Sadly, the official biography confirms this as truth, and the once proud freedom fighters, Raynor's Raiders, have been reduced to little more than mercenaries.
Here's what the site has to say on everyone's favorite backwater marshal and his crew.
[quote]Raynor escaped the massacre and vowed to have vengeance at some day in the future. Even so, against the full strength of the zerg Swarm and the vast psionic powers of the Queen of Blades, his chances seemed slender at best. Eventually, exhausted and disillusioned, Raynor returned to terran space to lead a resistance movement against the spreading power of Arcturus Mengsk's Terran Dominion. Over the years this fight hasn't gone well. Arcturus Mengsk has used his greatest weapons – oratory, the media, and propaganda – to marginalize Raynor's efforts.
Raynor's Raiders remain public enemy number one to the powerful Terran Dominion. Mengsk sees Raynor's continuing existence as a challenge to his authority. However, Mengsk is also wary of creating a martyr by having Raynor assassinated, and so he has taken steps to keep Raynor and his followers constantly hunted and harried and deny them any chance to gain a respite and build their strength.

Retelling the classic StarCraft tale known to the fandom from a single heroic perspective and expanding on Raynor's actions since then, the site gives us more information on the Terran hero as well as the tantalizing knowledge that Raynor's biography is first in a series.
