Reports say that Dain was taken into the bush by a locale guide, carrying basic survival gear, an iron rod for defense, and powdered milk as an offering. A month later the guide returned alone saying that Dain had gone mad and walked right into a billabog, followed by roars and cracking sounds that caused the guide to flee. Dain returned a month after that. He was a changed man, wild an with a harsh laugh, he refused to acknowledge his superior officers or oby orders. He was arrested for insuboardination and installed in the brig. The next day, it appeared that Dain's cell had momentarily attained the consistence of spaghetti. Dain himself was "sleeping" at the bottom of the base's, now reeded and festering, pool. It was found that one of the tanks had literally, and impossibly, been disemboweled by a large tuscked creature that no one reported seeing. Not caring to think about what Dain had really become, the Australian Navy began the process installing him in an American "Super Soldier" team, figuring it would be easier and cheaper to aim him at the Nazis than to try to imprison him.

[[GWS: Hannah Tines|Hannah]] is Dain's mother, and one of [[GWS:SOE|SOE]]'s (Special Operations Executive) top non-field agents. She returned to her maiden name, and her position at the [[GWS:SOE|SOE]], after the death of Dain's father, Callum McEwain. She always demanded the best of her only son, and that's never changed. Dain's Psychosis and releavement from duty were a grave embarrassment, but she sees a new potential to redeem Dain in his frightening abilities.

[[GWS:Hirudina|Hirudina]]: Love Exemplar.  
  
As a member of one of the higher, and darker, fairy courts, [[GWS:Hirudina|Hirudina]] was no small contribution to Dain's break down. They were lovers for a short, but energetic time. Dain was ordered to break it off for fear of offending some of the more purist, and powerful, fairy kin. [[GWS:Hirudina|Hirudina]] didn't like this very much at all, and began to torment Dain. If Dain had been a fairy things would have worked out fine, but causing his personal gravity to reverse every time he fell asleep, or sneezed, didn't lend to his stability. Things are more complicated now that Dain is sharing a body with a bunyip, a form not so suseptable to fairy charms, nor so forgiving of them.
