Date of birth: 787 A.S. Timezone: GMT -06:00 Experience: : Began with planetary transit vessels, moved on to civilian spacecraft and, on occasion, off the books use of military vessels (unauthorized). Minor experience out of atmosphere, however promise has been shown, especially since he was self taught.
Bio: Cyprus was not born into a powerful family. On the contrary his father was never known and his mother died shortly after childbirth, leaving only an Ident card as legacy to Cyprus. He was named Rupert at the orphanage but shortly into puberty he ran in with a crowd of a less than lawful group of teenagers slated for working the factories as their fathers before them. Because he was an orphan and had no one to hold him back, nor keep him responsible after reaching manhood, Cyprus quickly became the leader of this little band and often committed petty crimes as well as theft of civilian and even a few Liberty Navy vessels on shore leave for joy rides. Having been self taught, the first few journeys resulted in a few scrape-ups, however he was a swift learner and began to excel at piloting craft ranging from a Hawk civilian fighter to a Liberty Navy commissioned Executioner.
However this fun was not to last and he was forced to make a choice : long-term imprisonment, or reform and possible prospective pilot training for corporations around Liberty. As his name and reputation grew more noted in small backroom talks, Cyprus learned of the power he could hold if only he were able to take the right offer once his time was served. He used some of his previous criminal connections to secure possible knowledge of his unknown father. Apparently his father had been a Liberty Rogue whom his mother met with illicitly, despite his maternal grandfather's preaching. This drew Cyprus to a conclusion : he must go out into the void and face down as many pirates as he could and bring them to justice, and if his father still lived, he would find him and face him. Not having much to go on, Cyprus attributed his gifted abilities as a pilot to surely be from his father, not his mother's side, and was sure that he could be outmaneuvered by none other than the man who must be his father when put to the test.
To this end, Cyprus has decided his one place where the most paramount upper echelon of tactical knowledge, equipment, and craft can be appropriated would be the Liberty Navy. He has lay himself upon the mercy of the command and has naught to offer but skill, dedication to the eradication of as many scum as possible, and the protection of Liberty, as it is the only home he has ever known.
