Life began out there. At Crayter...
Cassius was brother of would-be-legendary Michael Richard. Born 2 years after Michael, he would have expected to surpass Michael. However somehow, Michael became the Family's shining star, while Cassius was always a shadow, strugglimg to grasp ideals of Crayter and traditions of the Family. At age 7, when Richard Family boarded the Gemini sleeper ship, education and training of Cassius begun immediately aboard the moving beacon of Crayter. However, everyone's attention was on his brother and he was compared to his brother at every turn. Always pressured to work harder and be better... He failed at times, as his interest was not in Military at that time, but technological marvels. Later transferred to Orion with his brother, he had the chance to advance in engineering.
Early Teens
As Michael continued with Military, Cassius moved ever onwards on science and engineering as he attended to New Eden Tech Highschool. However as Crayter traditions and laws, he had to serve under military for at least 2 years. He did so, as a Tech Officer among sleeperships of Crayter and later, the warships.
At 801 A.S. Orion arrived to Omicron Lost and Cassius lived among the survivors of Exodus within the now-abandoned Crayter Depot. Somehow, Cassius found Omicrons...interesting. A marvelous place at the fringe of would-be-known space...
Post-Exodus
Cassius gained a sort of frontier spirit as he further got acclimated to Omicrons. He learned to live with potential dangers and harsh conditions. Until Crayterians decided to leave the Depot and drive the Orion among the stars to reach Crayter's first home in Sirius as news came from Gemini.
Settlement at Tau 44
By the time Richard family settled at Tau 44, Cassius was already a grown young man. However, his mind and heart was with Omicrons and the secrets the region preserved nonetheless. As the gauls attacked Tau 44 and Crayter was driven into yet another exodus, Cassius vanished from sights of both Crayter and Gallia, made a run to Omicrons and blended into the Zoner community of Freeport 9 instead of sticking to Crayter and hiş family, presumed KIA by Crayter Fleet.
Life among Zoners
As he was proficient at coordinating engineering teams and had knowledge of military applications of science and technology to some degree, he was charged with coordinating maintenance of several Fearless-class Cruisers and Corvo Deep Space Explorers among Freeport 9's milita. Cassius learned ins and outs of Zoner capitals over time and eventually became a Chief Engineer among one of the warships. Enjoyed a rather peaceful life as the zoner way, until he had a visit to Freeport 11 for supplies. There, he became aware of The Core's existance, as well as the Order's and other Powers at play. While he did business with Corsairs at Freeport 9, he was not aware of Outcast's reach so far into Zoner community and their threatening stance at times.
One day, he had to take command of a damaged Fearless out of necessity as the Captain and bridge crew was injured during defense from a particular Nomad incursion into Freeport 9. Firing salvos after salvos at Nomad fleet, defeat seemed inevitable… Only until The Core's warships came into existance out of nowhere and slaughtered the aliens, plus took the remains with them.
Digging into the core of The Core
Commanding that Fearless and fighting alongside Core ticked something inside Cassius. Will to fight and take the fight to alien scum. He realised the pacifist lifestyle of a Zoner was not for him. He was born to fight, born to end threats and be the scourge of Omicrons. It was in his genes, his bloodline, his fate, commanding people into victory, just like his brother. It was his chance to prove himself… He took his Spatial and went to Freeport 11, to become part of something greater, something organized and something had Access to power. He needed that power to command people and prove himself. First step was to enlist within the Core…
Climbing the Ladder
He started with a Gunboat, his trusty rifle and a series of objectives. Over time, his experience grown, his crew trusted him and some higher ups owed him favors. They also paid good for the alien goo he brought into several Core bases. However, his aim was something different. He wanted top of the food chain. A Mako-class Battleship. He pulled some favors from influential Zoners, offered to cover part of the resources of a Mako and interesting enough, he was given command of one, as he was loyal and experienced enough to be given command of one. His entire crew formed the skeleton crew of the new Mako, then additional crew was provided, although by the time alien tech research allowed some greater degree of automatization within Core ships to give them the needed technological edge.
Cassius, Today
As a proud Paramilitary Secondary Fleet officer, Paladin Cassius Richard serves with loyalty to The Core, while furthering his own agenda for a powerbase and acquire loyalties inside higher ups. However he may be distasteful at having relations with Gallia, he sees them as an obstacle to dominate in given time, thus he tolerates the policy. He is known to have a distaste for Outcasts too, due to previous ins and outs with them as a Crayterian.
