Kelven, also known as Ada by his family, was a farmer of the male persuasion residing in Tangenine. He and his partner Remba parented two children, namely Lauren Mel Coelho and Julien. This family possessed a farm; however, they were victims of extortion by the Malandro syndicate. After Remba's inability to provide payment, the Falleen gangster named Annaz arrived and killed both Remba and their employees, resulting in Lauren and Julien being placed in the care of their grandmother.
