 Noticing his political and financial acumen, Jet positioned Dane as the CEO of the NuvaLux Firm, an Umbra-led offshore development group that secretly funded the organization's works while simultaneously grooming him to become his next host should Kazuya prove less than useful, noting that Dane's particular skill set would prove useful in future days.
-Dane spent many months outside of the region, overseeing NuvaLux while always preparing for the eventuality that he'd have to return to Kasei - a scenario that would come to light much sooner than he expected. Upon hearing word that Jet been defeated on Darkmoon Island and the organization had fallen into disarray, he quickly made his return to Kasei and instituted "Project Deathless," an emergency directive set into motion months before. Assuming the role of leader of the resurgent Team Umbra, Dane has taken to the task of achieving 'Reunion'.

 During his time with his previous host, Kazuya Iketani, Jet was a difficult individual to understand emotionally. To those who work with/for him, he came off a cold and distant, focusing on completing the task at hand. While, a moment later he appeared almost jovial, with an eerie, almost sadistic sense of humor. Beneath the quixotic exterior, lied a cruel, villainous soul that fed on fear and negativity, and would to great lengths to ensure their persistence. He also exhibited a near-Machiavellian level of ambition, not hesitating to sacrifice "dead weight" to accomplish his goals however, he was also able to recognize talent in those in his company and would do what is necessary to cultivate those skills as they suited his needs. He enjoyed toying with his prey, reveling in their dismay for his own twisted sense of satisfaction. Paramount to all of this, he exhibited extreme narcissism, had an exceptionally high opinion of himself, and saw himself as an apex predator in relation to other Darkrai, whom he tended to look down on as his lessers.
-Following his 2 year imprisonment in the DreamWorld, Jet returns to reality noticeably different. With his current host, Dane Nadyr, he still retains his predatory nature, gone is his penchant for playful teasing and goading of his prey. Instead, he exhibits a general emotional indifference, claiming a higher understanding of the heart and darkness that resides within it. As the leader of Team Umbra, Jet is a cunning wordsmith, speaking with calmness and deep authority. He has a tendency to be melodramatic, making long-winded speeches, and exaggerating his false rage and pride with wide sweeping arm movements and hand gestures. These exaggerations represent his lack of emotion. Also, this new fusion affords him a heightened level of farsight and a patience which sees him take his time and let his schemes play out on his own timetable. Jet also has adapted a greater people sense that allows him to pick up on a person's nature, insecurities, and fears within a few moments of meeting them, often choosing to twist and manipulate them for his own interests.
+An unforeseen side-effect of gaining control of Twilight and the dreams and memories that came with it was a strange inability to remain within one host for any extended amount of time. It address this, Jet enlisted the help of two additional hosts and the personality quirks that came with them. In what is regarded as his 3rd incarnation, Jet's general demeanor has softened considerably. He appears more thoughtful in his process, taking time to consider the steps he's taken to get to where he is now and how that relates to the overall future. Unlike his previous forms, he no longer sees the need in grand shows of force. Utilizing an uncanny sense of farsight, he incorporates lighter touches during crucial moments in a plan's progress and lets the results domino into the greater-influencing outcome he forsees. Jet takes a measured, almost academic approach to those stand against him, deeming a victory over the heart and mind more important than any martial conquest.

+Initially, Jet believed its creators, the Prime Cresselia and Darkrai, to be fickle and uncaring parents, who subjected its siblings to an unfair cycle of maintaining dreams and nightmares known as the Balance. Early in his rebellion against the system, Jet wanted only to tear it all down, destroy the Balance and the society it served outright, leaving bedlam and disorder in its wake.

 ==Background==
-The origins of the Darkrai known simply as Jet are clouded in mystery, even to himself. If one were to ask him, all he could honestly say is that he just appeared one day, born from brilliant flash of light much like other pokemon of his particular grouping. But from the moment that glowing cyan eye opened, the Darkrai knew one thing for certain - he was hungry.
+The origins of this Darkrai were clouded in mystery, even to itself. If one were to ask it, it would say that it 'awakened' in a flash of light in the late 17th century, alongside a Cresselia, that it would regard as its sister and companion. But from the moment that glowing cyan eye opened, the Darkrai knew one word - Balance.
-Most of Jet's early life was spent trying to determine what it was in the world that successfully staved off his hunger and, much to his delight, he found that the dreams of the sleeping, particularly nightmares, were the most filling of meals. Having learned this, Jet spent most of following months innocently feeding on the dreams of unsuspecting sleepers, as was the case with most Darkrai. His actions were innocuous at best, but he soon found that it took more and more dreams to satisfy his hunger, and less time would pass before those hunger pangs roiled up inside him again.
+Over the following years, the Lunar Duo would come to understand the nature of the Balance and their role in serving it. Following the example set by older members of their species, The Darkrai learned that while it could cause nightmares based on people's fears, its true purpose was to alleviate a person's negativity, terrors, and anxiety by consuming nightmares that already existed. Its sister-Cresselia would then replace the eate dreams with pleasantly serene ones.
-Concerned, he was forced to feed more frequently, searching out more terrifying dreams to dine on. This was no easy task, and it often left him feeling actually sick to his stomach when he'd come up empty-handed. This desperation forced Jet to become more proactive in his hunting, resorting to secretly causing minor stressful situations for his targets that would leave them frustrated, stressed, or uneasy in order to enhance the potency of their nightmares. For a time, Jet was content with himself and the trouble he caused.
+The elder Darkrai also warned of taking too much negativity on at one time or risk becoming consumed by that very darkness. The Darkrai, unable to accept its own limitations, took it upon itself to try to help and heal as many people as it could, despite its sister's constant pleading to slow down. Many more years passed and the Lunar Duo traveled across the Asian continent and into Europe, offering their special brand of healing and support. The Darkrai continued disregarding the elders' teachings and gorged itself on pain and misery, ignoring the warning signs of its own self-created decline.
-Some time later, Jet caught wind of a phenomenon called fusion, though all he took away from it was how it was said to improve a pokemon's natural abilities by sharing a body with a human. The idea initially disgusted the Darkrai, but his opinion changed when he thought of how he could use fusion as a means to create stronger nightmares to feast upon. Unsure of how to go about fusion with a human, Jet decided to test it on one of his more frequently-visited targets, an older man who was prone to bouts of sleepwalking at night.
+Others also started to take notice of the effect the Darkrai's consumption had on it. As time passed, more and people and Pokemon started to see the Darkai as a creature of shadow - a scourge, resorting to fleeing or outright acts of hostility towards the it. Cresselia insisted that these incidents were simply misunderstandings that could dismissed just as easily. Despite the occasional hardship, the siblings still tried to do their part and help humanity, as the Balance demanded until a fateful series of events in southern France saw the Lunar Duo go their separate ways.
-As night crept over the land, Jet wormed his way into the man's dreams and waited for his time to strike. Much to his surprise, he had little difficulty fusing with the sleeper. The Darkrai turned parasite reveled in the control he had over his sleeping host and more importantly how much more powerful he felt. Returning the slumbering man to his bed, Jet left him, intent on finding a more long-term host to facilitate his feedings.
+Years of constant 'misunderstandings' had taken its emotional toll on the Darkrai, causing it to question a Balance that would have it suffer as a victim of humanity's ire. These frustrations and disillusionment with its family came to a head as it attempted to help a trio of Pokemon that had taken the siblings in. When the Darkrai attempted to use its talents to defend their friends from a group of hostile Pokemon, it was rewarded by the same fearful stares and animosity he had received so many times before. Unfortunately for the siblings, this was the final straw.
-Many months passed, and Jet had refined his craft to something of an art. Realizing that he couldn't keep a permanently sleeping host, he went on to coerce willing targets to join with him, enticed by the 'promise' that they would be granted access to the Darkrai's abilities in exchange for a simple ride. What Jet had come to learn, but keep secret from his hosts, was that prolonged  fusion with the parasitic Darkrai resulted in a rapid deterioration of one's mental state. Once a host's usefulness expired, Jet would simply leave them to wallow in their madness as he flew off to find another "ride."
+The Darkrai finally confronted its sister, airing long-supressed grievances with the Balance and the parents that would impose it their will so cruelly upon them. Taking on the name 'Jet,' the Darkrai declared that it would keep its own judgment over humanity's vice and show the Darkrai species a future that didn't involve being seen as monsters - a future at the top of the metaphorical food chain. Vowing to go alone, Jet left its sister behind and began taking a more heavy-handed approach to humanity. While refining its craft, Jet learned to sustain itself on the iniquities of humans by manipulating their desires and their fears in order to bend them to its will.
-Having spent so much time floating about within the minds of his hosts, Jet has learned that, while nightmares born of terror are tasty, a Darkrai can obtain a much more filling meal by going straight for the source of said dreams; negative emotion itself. So, as of recently, Jet has taken a more aggressive approach in his feedings with actively antagonizing populations and committing major criminal activities with the Kasei Underground tipping off the proverbial iceberg of "organized chaos." To this day, Jet still continues to feed his hunger and search for the perfect meal.
+These forays into the human psyche eventually saw Jet stumbling upon fusion for the first time. Through careful vetting and manipulation of perspective humans, Jet effectively lengthened its lifespan by jumping from host to host ad feeding on their negativity, like a sybiotic parasite. Jet would repeat the process for centuries on end until the winds of fate found the Darkrai reaching the shores of Kasei, a region Jet surmised would be the perfect starting point for its master plan to come to fruition.
