MichaelReamCaederelleMichael Ream CaederelleBorn and bred in Gehenna, Michael Ream-Caedelle quickly began to show a proficiency for Politics and Economics. Apparently not merely a product of his expensive education, this ability increased to striking levels in his mid-teens, along with his fencing. He quickly got a name for never losing sight of his goals, but his political career was somewhat shadowed when speculations about his legitimacy arose. A dirt-seeking hunt by one of his rivals came up short when an unknown phenomenon caused the deletion of all related files from the computers of Gehenna, whilst any hard copies also went missing. All that can be ascertained for certain is that his mother, Genevieve Bahlmis, fell pregnant with him whilst on a diplomatic mission with her father Jonathon. Jonathon died while on Gehenna and Genevieve thereafter lost touch with her Aquilan kin; until Michael showed up, it was believed she had died at the same time as her father. Michael claims that his parents were married but is evasive about his father's whereabouts and continued existence. His nickname (rarely said to his face), 'The Brilliant Bastard' arose inevitably from this controversy, but a few carefully chosen litigations and one or two inexplicable accidents have generally ensured that this topic rarely surfaces. Eventually, news of a possible windfall in Aquila reached his ears, bringing one of Gehenna's most ruthless aristocrats back home. His reception was mixed, however, and he did not stay long, presumably deciding that a decimated House, whatever its prestige, did not precisely count as a windfall. His current whereabouts are unknown. Currently Michael is an inactive character and considered to be off-world. |
