PERSONAL HISTORY:

George was born to a family of bureaucrats as the sixth of seven children, of whom the first and the third died during infancy due to poor living conditions on Planet Leeds. His mother was a commoner employed as a department manager in the space mining company owned by her mother. George's father, an impoverished nobleman, had married her less out of love than because it would ensure him a well paid position in the company. She accepted the marriage because his title would bring her better social status. It was rumoured that she turned to other men when she needed love, so it is not certain that George was her husband's son.

During George's childhood, his parents spent most of the time at work, so he and his brothers were taken care of by their sister, the eldest child. She had witnessed the death of her younger brother and thus she was very restrictive in order to keep the ones she had safe. During some time George was the youngest of them all, and the star of the family, but the arrival of his youngest brother shaded his role. That is where George's hunger for power derived from, as well as his rancor towards women in power. Nevertheless, his disregarded position allowed him to do things he would be scolded for, unnoticed.

While he was a child, George was of sub-average height and had a dreary temper, so he was sometimes the target of bullies, which resulted with his elevated level of aggressiveness later. He was meant to take a position in the company when he would grow up, so after the elementary he was enrolled in the school of law and administration. He finished it with average grades.

He was in the first year of law studies when his legal father committed suicide by hanging. His father had been diagnosed with lung cancer a couple of weeks before that and, as his note said, it was the main reason for his act, before the lack of love and the monotonous life. George was the one to see his hanging body first. His noble father was one of the very few persons he looked up to. He set nobility as one of his aims on the day when he saw his father hanging and staring at nothing with his turbid eyes. He wanted to replace his father in this world, but play the role smarter. It was also, however, the day when the material prevailed over the spiritual in George's mind.
He did not like the law studies, so he used the alleged emotional shock as the reason to drop out. Despite the lack of education, he was employed as a manager of one of the wharves in the Tau-31 Gate Construction Site in Tau-23. After three years, he advanced to the position of a Hegemon-class navigator.

Not long after, his mother passed out at work and died in the hospital. The cause of death, which was classified for the general public, were syphilis treatment side effects. This disturbed his grandmother greatly and she died several days after suffering a heart attack on the day when she was informed. His elder sister was the legal successor of the company, and its debts, which were much greater than her grandmother had claimed. The company was something she despised -- it had taken so many joys and even lives, for money. She managed it unsuccessfully for six months and, on the brink of bankruptcy, quit and opened a small (and ultimately successful) flower shop on Planet Cambridge with what little money was remaining on her account.

This left the company in the hands of George's eldest brother, Charles. Although it had owned some shares of the BMM before, ironically it was sold to the BMM to avoid total collapse. Charles had actually finished some useful schools, among them the military academy, the knowledge from which was useful to reduce the sums spent on escorts. However, when the company started producing surplus, George wished a more important say in its business. Charles did not want to allow that due to George's lack of education and diligence, so war broke out between the two brothers. George was fired, but soon after a scandal about the company appeared on the first page of a tabloid, without doubt a scheme arranged by George. It marginally reduced its partners' trust, and thus the profit. Charles realized it would be cheaper to pay George a sizable monthly sum of money instead of having him discredit the company little by little every month. As this did not require him to actually work, George accepted the offer. Thus began the best part of his life.

For years he wandered around the Taus, Northern Bretonia and Western Kusari, met shady characters, drank vertiginous drinks, used illegal substances, slept with anonymous pole dancers and produced illegal children, most of whom he does not even know of to this day. He let his hedonism loose in crowded chambers where vision was blinded by the flashing of various colours of light out of pitch dark, where hearing was neutralized by the roaring of everything but music, where taste was fried by the percentage of alcohol in the air, from people's breathing, where touch was numbed by the constant friction between body parts of different or sometimes same genders, where moral was utterly razed by the type of freedom that had razed Sodom and Gomorrah. Eventually George got older, but there was always something new to do. Life did not have a point, but it was ridiculously fun.

For a limited time. In 814, Kusari swept through Tau-23. A considerable part of the family's assets were destroyed. As there were more to defend in the Leeds System, Charles applied for command over a restored secondary fleet Dunkirk-class, the survivor of a major battle. Unknown to him, George pulled a few connections related to his father, and thanks to that, Charles' request was approved. George served as the navigator and deemed that he should be the one in command, as it was thanks to him that Charles' command was enabled. However, as the ways it was acquired by were illegal, he could not speak of it. Instead, George decided to enlist in the primary fleet, and later take over the ship by the right of the rank. Combining his Machiavellian methods and, surprisingly, hard work, he reached the rank of captain in 819. Wasting no time, he exposed that Charles, being already an old man, was suffering from Alzheimer's disease, and thus George replaced him.

Owing to good relations with Lord Firmus Piett, then Sir and the fleet admiral, George was promoted to commodore the next year, and advanced to the admiralty. He was also given command over the Royal Fleet. He reached the rank of admiral under the same. Staying at the same position for years, he has seen many fleet admirals come and go -- Piett, Havering, Wildcat and O'Brien -- but has never become one himself. He was the acting fleet admiral during two short periods measured in weeks. He has been in command of the MacDuff Fleet as commodore, the Ark Royal Fleet as admiral, and then moved to Cambridge to command the Norfolk Fleet and Cambridge Planetary. He is addicted to cardamine and, with the prior fleets located in Newcastle, used the local Outcast presence to procure it, as well as the law which allowed for the maximum of five units in one's possession. His addiction is, of course, unknown outside of the BIS High Command and his providers. He moved to Cambridge when Cryer Pharmaceuticals discovered Stabiline, a safer and legal replacement for cardamine. During the long use of cardamine, he combined it with tea in order to mask it, which resulted in his widely known tea addiction.
Thanks to his experience gained from working with criminals, he can occasionally pass off a shady deal or a scheme without being noticed. This is, of course, still unknown, as he has not been noticed by any relevant people yet.

His most notable achievements are the formation of the Auxiliary Fleet, multiple agreements with the IMG, the Freeport 1 Zoners, the Rheinland Military, the Red Hessians, the Bounty Hunters' Guild, the Core and recently Battlegroup Auxesia, the victory over the Gallic Royal Navy of 822 in Manchester, over the Corsairs in Omega-3 the same year, the destruction of the CGS|HQ, the rehabilitation of Kaze Dagon (also known as Titanium Reaver), the defense against the Red Hessians and the initiation of the new Omega Treaty with Rheinland. His operations against Cadiz Base in Omega-5 ended without success when the Red Hessians attacked. He was declared Member of the Order of the Bretonian Empire after completing the Omega-3 Safety Agreement in 822, and was knighted after the destruction of the CGS|HQ this year, finally equaling his father. He currently serves the Realm at his headquarters aboard the Norfolk. His flagship is the Thunderer. He is currently as determined as always in climbing the ladder of Bretonian politics. The remains of his family's assets are still floating around Tau-23, and his numerous bastards are still wandering around Sirius. George strives for regaining what is rightfully his, but does not intend to return to Planet Leeds, even if it is reconquered.
