Personal History
Early Life
Born to a family thoroughly entrenched in the Unified House Hierarchy, Talos attended upper-class UHoB schools. His innate rebellious nature was soon tamed by the headmaster's lashings and he began to excel at his studies. Following his father's death at the hands of rebel forces in 2374, Talos' belief in the righteous and superior cause of the House was solidified.
In Service of The House
A Son of the 6th Wing, Talos' status and loyalty to the Unified House saw him quickly rising through the ranks of the UHoB military until he was eventually appointed High Inquisitor by Mother Eternal Keehani Ukinix, following her ascension.Though much of his work is shrouded in secrecy, his reputation for cold, ruthless efficiency in dealing with deviants and his all-black, latinum accented uniform have landed him the unfavorable nickname "The Black Death" among those unaligned with the Unified House. His prowess as a telepathic interrogator is equally infamous, with the few who survive the ordeal often finding death a preferable alternative.
It was through his work (which often saw him delivering deviants to The Idrustix Penal Colony) that he met Raven Hopper. Despite his initial misgivings surrounding her part-Terran heritage, he soon realized that their particular lines of work were rather complimentary. After some time, the pair became romantically involved and eventually solidified their union in 2398. As a Son of the 6th Wing, their inter-species marriage required the express permission of the Mother Eternal herself, who allowed it on the grounds of both his and Hopper's long-standing service and loyalty to the House.
