Name: Gaius Magnus
Age: 24 (Cryo +50)
Gender: Male
Personal Information: Gaius stands at 6’3” and weighs in at 190 lbs with a lean athletic build. He has short cropped auburn hair and green eyes.
Taken at the age of 6 during a slaver raid on a small town, Gaius was raised in captivity to a particular vicious band of slavers called the Gauls. On his 10th birthday the planets special forces, the Legios, stormed the slaver fortress and rescued those imprisoned there. Due to his age and lack of family, Gaius was taken in and trained until his 16th birthday, at which point he enlisted. Over the next 7 years, Gaius did multiple tours across the system, eventually commanding a company at the rank of Centurion.
At the end of his contract, Gaius decided to make his own way and became a mercenary, with a penchant for taking on contracts involving slavers or corrupt politicians. One contract ended poorly however, and Gaius ended up with the blood of a prominent politician on his hands. He was shortly convicted of capital murder and sentenced for pickup by Tartarus.
Personality: Gaius is reserved and disciplined, thanks to his childhood as a slave and time in the Legios. While enlisted, Gaius was taught the value of sacrifice and commitment to the greater good that his systems military followed. Gaius also fights for the underdog and believes no man is greater than another based on birth.
Reason your character got REKT: Gaius exposed a prominent politician’s involvement in a child slave ring and had him charged. However, the politician pulled some strings and was released with all charges dropped. Gaius took justice into his own hands at that point, killing the entire slaver ring, ended with the politician’s headless body and Gaius’s transfer to Tartarus Inc.
