John Raynor,[1] called Johnny,[2] was the son of Lidya and Jim Raynor.
Biography
Edit
John Raynor, raised on Mar Sara, scored highly on a psionic evaluation at a young age[1] and so was considered "gifted".[3] This caught the attention of the Tarsonis Institute of Health and Research, which invited him to take part in trials to develop his psionic potential, reminding the parents that it was their duty to do send him. Jim Raynor didn't trust the Confederacy, but Lidya thought this was a good opportunity for him, and that Jim was too stuck in his past to see this clearly. Eventually, John was sent to the school.[1]
Months later,[3] the institute sent the Raynors a letter, saying that John had died in a shuttle accident. Lidya blamed herself and eventually died of grief.[1]
Notes
Edit
Writer and journalist Matthew W. Quinn planned on pitching a novel to Blizzard Entertainment before material from Heart of the Swarm and lack of solicitation shot it down. John was expected to make an appearance in it.[4]
Chris Metzen has not ruled out continuing John's story, such as him being a ghost under the Dominion. However, there are currently no plans to do so.[5]
