Biography
Early Life
Kane was born to Geoffrey Kane (b. 767 A.S.) and Breanne Colson (b. 768 A.S.) in the beginning of 795 A.S. on Padua Base. Both of his parents were cardamine smugglers for the Liberty Rogues, but, like Kane, neither of them used the drug. Kane often accompanied them on smuggling operations across Sirius, learning navigation and piloting skills for both snubcraft and larger ships during his childhood years. His early years were often spent travelling, so he never knew much of Padua.
By the time he was sixteen, Kane was flying smuggling and recon operations for the Rogues solo, at one point even testing the then-prototypical Hyena-class pirate light fighter. He received one for his efforts, but it soon was destroyed at the hands of a rather large and outnumbering force of Liberty Navy secondary fleet pilots.
Vagrant Raiders
In late 817 A.S., Kane was looking for full-time work with a group other than the Liberty Rogues. He stumbled upon, by chance, the recruitment subchannel of the Vagrant Raiders. He entered his application and almost immediately accepted and given a Bayonet-class heavy fighter. After a few promotions, he was given a surprise escalation to the High Command and the rank of Taskmaster, becoming possibly the fastest person to achieve a rank like that in the history of the faction. Kane continues to serve the Vagrant Raiders in the position of Taskmaster to this day.
Personality
Kane is an easy-going and rather laid back person, considering his stressful job in a criminal business. He is very nice although when people personally attack his friends and family, he will often snap and deliver overwhelming amounts of force for a situation that is unneeded. However, in recent months, he has gotten better about that and rarely calls in the troops for small encounters. He is compassionate and is a friend to just about anyone (exceptions include Nomads and people who want to kill him).
Relationships
Lavinia Concordia
- I never want to let you go...
Kane and Lavinia are, for lack of a better term, dating. Kane showed interest in Lavinia one day outside Rochester and ended up spending the evening with her in a bar in the wreck of an old liner. Since then, the two have spent much time together and are currently in a romantic relationship.
John Petrucci
- Aye, Overlord.
Petrucci and Kane do not know each other very well, but Kane respects him as a hard-working man who runs the Vagrant Raiders in a way that no one else ever could.
"Crazy" Barry
- How many Barrys does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
Although Barry is the butt of many Vagrant Raider jokes, Kane respects Barry for his persistent work in the Raiders and hopes that one day the two may work together to help the Raiders grow into an empire of its own.
VR-02
- Statement: 02 is badass.
Kane appreciates 02's work as the Raiders' most intelligent and sarcastic killbot. They have flown together on multiple occasions.
