I think there's a few signs that point to Kinger having been an employee at Caine & Abel Inc. I wouldn't be surprised if Kinger is Abel.
>CS major, maybe was part of a C&A project that worked to develop Caine.
>Caine hates Kinger/Abel for putting him into a lonely existence and 'kills' him by forcing him into the circus, mimicking the biblical tale.
>Nobody remembers their names and everybody gets new bodies on arrival. As a result Caine doesn't recognize Kinger/Abel, Kinger can't make the connection himself because he can't remember his name.
>Uses a bug (exploit) to heal Ragatha, his explanation of "I made it up" could easily equate to "I made something up to bypass this flaw in the code"
Kinger is the key to all of this. When a king gets knocked off of a chess-board it's game over.
