Yral was a young Skagaran male who lived in "Skagtown", on a planet located in the Delphic Expanse containing a former Skagaran colony.

In 2153, Yral's teacher was Bethany, who taught Yral and a group of Skagaran children illegally. Yral was particularly adept at mathematics, especially multiplication. He later would learn about the Wright brothers first flight. (ENT: "North Star")
