Who is Evil Star?

History Resolving to conquer death itself, a scientist of the planet Aoran developed the "star band", a device that would lengthen the lifespan of the wearer, perhaps to that of the very stars themselves. However, the scientist had not reckoned with the possibility of side effects. Unfortunately, the device caused anyone who came into contact with it to commit only evil acts. Years later, the being who now called himself Evil Star laughed as his wife and son grew old, while he remained young. Occasionally, he would remove the star band and shun its evil ways, but he feared death more than his own self-hatred. In the end, he always put the band on again. Eventually the people of Aoran could stand his evil no longer. They warred against Evil Star and he slew them all.
