Kryton had a rough childhood, he knew he was different at a young age. Kryton spent most of his young years doing things other kids wouldn't do or would otherwise be considered abnormal. For instance, concentrating heavily on wooden block with letters. In this way Kryton showed the ability to spell words at a young age.
Kryton's obsession continued in his adolescent life and really manifested in College. He was handpicked by a government agency when he scored abnormally high on a military recruiting test.
His abilities were further used in his inevitable job as a Cryptanalyst. He studied the german enigma machines heavily in his studies and did his part in post World War 2 surveillance.
It was when he made a few major breaks in Russian classified messages that he was brought to the attention of the Foundation.
The Foundation will need more people studying the possibilities of the enigmagraphs.

-Atheist and will contest paranormal events as explainable no matter how phenomenal.
- Is often considered an asshole due to his sarcastic remarks and casual use of his middle finger.
- When the stakes are low… His attitude is high.
- Heavy smoker
- Rarely sleeps and when he does he doesn't sleep well.
- Knows German, Russian, Mandarin and Japanese, as well as sign language and Morse code.
- Though he may seem like he would be anti-social, when it comes to work related matters, he will often be one of the foremost speakers in a group (only to assure things get done right)
