Through resilience and willpower, he entered the Anzati Government, rising through the public departments to the role of Deputy Prime Minister, before entering the private sector and taking a number of positions through private corporations.

Have to Start Somewhere
Courage Under Fire
Lucus Parahopper was born to parents Rauk and Eleena Parahopper on the planet of Celegia within the Ghost Nebula. While his birth was a celebration for the family, the situation was one of great peril. The planet was undergoing a military bombardment during a coup d'état by a military insurgency against the local government which caused a large number of civilian casualties, along with the collapse of basic social services and facilities. While Lucus was born healthy, his mother Eleena was unable to receive adequate medical attention to control bleeding from her uterus, and died soon after giving birth. Over the next several years, Lucus grew up with a distraught, drunk father who was unable to get over the loss of his wife. While unable to effectively communicate or even comfort her father in a concise manner, he still tried to comfort his father they way a young child could. While shrugged off and neglected, Lucus was soon removed from his father's care for fear of his health, by local officials of the new insurgent government and placed in the Celegia Juvenile Enrichment Centre. While the centre was predominately comprised on violent children, Lucus was able to spend the majority of his time teaching himself a basic eduction. While he focussed on galactic basic to understand the basic of galactic society, he was forced to teach himself the basics of self defence as he was regularly beaten and targeted by groups of uneducated youths.
Removing himself from the facility at the age of fourteen, Lucus spent the next three months attempting to locate his father. Local holorecords were incomplete and sporadic, detailing several places of residences and various employment opportunities. It became apparent that this drunken nature had caused him to fall into a life of mediocrity. Investigating a number of leads with the limited credits he received when he departed the Celegia Centre, he soon released the news was going to be bleak. Falling into the bowels of society, Lucus discovered the body of his father, shot three times in the chest from what appeared to be a small projectile. Disappointed, however not very sad given their history, he contacted the local authorities to ensure the proper ceremony was bestowed on his father, and for the first time in his life, the growing Anzati visited the tombstone of his mother, to bury his father right beside her.
Overcoming Adversity
Moving in and out of various homes to get by, Lucus spent his fifteenth and sixteenth birthdays living marginally above the poverty line, bar-tending in a number of taverns throughout the Mytaranor sector. While the credit flow was minimal at best, Lucus found himself making a number of friends in various places. While many were able to provide various internships throughout various companies within the Rakhuuun system, others were able to provide free accommodation and living facilities to help him get by. One such friend was Jaska Kee. While their friendship kicked off immediately due to their similar living conditions, it introduced Lucus to sex and the love of another, something he had never experienced in his life thus far. Spending as much time together as possible, he soon found them sharing the same address, before a connection saw an internship grow into an entry-level position within a consultancy firm called Messert Managerial, based out of Messert V.
Over a three year employment, his rudimentary skills in communication grew to a level of a skilled negotiator. Contracts and companies filled his days, turning his once simple day-to-day life of struggling, into a life of fine suits, culture and a higher standard of living, forcing him to move out of Jaska's home, and bid farewell to his first love.
A week before his nineteenth birthday, Lucus took a QH-3 LAV speeder to a client's office on Tholatin III to negotiate a new employment contract. With a signed and sealed contract, Lucus commenced his return to the offices of Messert Managerial where his speeder was hit head on by a drunk Gran, causing catastrophic damage to speeder, before it caught fire as it hurtled into the planet's surface. Unconscious and badly wounded, Lucus was taken to a Rebel Alliance aligned company, Cyber Technology. As various FX-7 medical droids attempted to heal his various wounds, it was evident that his body would require extensive cybernetics in order to survive. Both arms were removed and replaced with their metallic counterparts, while his damaged retina's were changed to cybernetic eyes. After month's of rehabilitation and a number of follow-up medical procedures, Lucus was discharged and once again forced to start over. With his employment within Messert Managerial terminated due to his prolonged absence, Lucus looked for a fresh start to his new life.
