Cael is most certainly a grim man, and is not easily slighted by anyone, even people he puts trust in. He is derisive to anyone but those in his crew, or those he's in professional relations with. In these cases, he is seen as calm, collected, and some would claim, even humble. But to those that set off his ire, he is condescending, inflammatory, and vicious. Rumor has it, he beat a man to death with a holo-billiards cue for threatening a woman in a cantina. Strangely, he despises almost anyone with a narcissistic demeanor. Except himself, of course.

Cael Arcturus Graigan, born on Day 30 Year -28, is a freelancer, businessman, artist, murderer, smuggler, pilot, ex-mercenary, and former sergeant in the Imperial military. Once a proud Corellian, Cael contracted the Metamorphosis Plague. This virus activated latent Anzati genes that partially rewrote his DNA, resulting in Anzati characteristics becoming dominant.

Biography

Early Years

Born at the top of Corellian society, Cael was the only child of Haetham and Reilia Graigan. Haetham maintained tight control of the Corellian arms market as a result of their corporation, Graigan Arms, "acquiring" small arms manufacturers to bring under their umbrella. Haetham's position as CEO ensured this near-monopoly and spun it into deals with a number of militaries across the galaxy. However, when Cael was fifteen years old, Reilia and Haetham divorced following a public scandal that brought to light arms deals with criminal factions. Though the company eventually recovered, the family's reputation would forever be stained.

At age sixteen, Cael became a member of the company board of executives after a replacement for Reilia's position was not found, taking over as CFO. While some members of the board argued, especially some of the more ambitious ones, Cael's economic prowess became evident and all shouts turned to whispers.

At age twenty-six, Cael became CEO after Haetham succumbed to a heart attack during an off-world business trip. One year later, following the increase in unrest prior to the rebellion, Cael sold his shares in the company and left for parts unknown.

An Exile of Their Doing

While Cael did not fear any sort of reprisal from the already-building movement to rebel against the Empire, he felt it would be best to go to ground for a few years to ride out any sort of conflict. With numerous resources still at his disposal, he made a comfortable living in the outer-reaches of the galaxy that warred on itself. After years of his self-imposed disappearance, he finally made the decision to rejoin the galaxy at large.

A Sense of Potential

The Derra Strain

Mere days after Cael's awakening to the Force, yet another turning point occurred in his life: the Metamorphosis Plague, best known as the Derra Virus, became a galaxy-wide pandemic. This virus was unknown to Cael for the most part aside from muddled and unclear visions from meditation, but he contracted the plague from a bottle of whiskey given to him as a Life Day gift. When he fell asleep in a drunken stupor, he awoke three days later, not feeling quite right. Fearing a narcotic, he used onboard lab equipment to discover if anything was amiss. To his surprise, the laboratory computer registered him not as Corellian--but as Anzati. However, the plague did not affect him as drastically as other sentients. Rather, that the plague awoke latent genes in his DNA that were from his mother. Unbeknownst to him until this point, his mother was either an Anzati or herself was the offspring of one.

This revelation was earth-shattering to Cael's proud heritage that he constantly touted, but nevertheless, he still considers himself a Corellian and continues maintaining the Corellian Alcoholic Enablers League.

Personality

"The sharpest knife is most often the one you never see coming."
— Cael Graigan

Cael is most certainly a grim man, and is not easily slighted by anyone, even people he puts trust in. He is derisive to anyone but those in his crew, or those he's in professional relations with. In these cases, he is seen as calm, collected, and some would claim, even humble. But to those that set off his ire, he is condescending, inflammatory, and vicious. Rumor has it, he beat a man to death with a holo-billiards cue for threatening a woman in a cantina. Strangely, he despises almost anyone with a narcissistic demeanor. Except himself, of course.

He is, however, not without a good sense of humor. While remaining almost consistently stoic in business and in normal interaction, he maintains the Corellian Alcoholic Enablers League (C.A.E.L.), a satirical brewery/organization that plays on the stereotype of Corellian alcoholism to push a number of Corellian alcohols, leading to a fair amount of financial success.

His Imperial psychological evaluation profiles him as "while most certainly chaotic in his methods, he is cold and calculated in his premeditation. He is straightforward, forthcoming, and honest; something unlike most that come through my door. His demeanor, while cold, is easily shaken by light conversation but he maintains a certain...distance.
