Story/Biography: Ramirez's early life was steeped in the traditions of the Outcasts. From a young age, he was taught the importance of loyalty to the family and the faction, as well as the skills necessary for survival in the perilous environment of space. His education was a mix of academic learning and practical training, focusing on spacecraft piloting, combat, and the intricate process of Cardamine cultivation. The drug, which prolongs the life of its users but also makes them dependent, is seen by the Outcasts as a sacred gift and the basis of their economy.
Ramirez quickly showed an aptitude for piloting and navigation, joining the ranks of the Outcasts' spacefaring warriors. He became involved in defending Outcast territory against encroachments by rival factions and in the smuggling operations that distributed Cardamine across the Sirius sector. His daring exploits and navigational prowess earned him respect and notoriety among his peers.
Like many Outcasts, Ramirez harbors a deep resentment towards the houses of Sirius, who see the Outcasts as criminals and smugglers. He is motivated by a desire to secure a future for his people and to prove that the Outcasts are more than the pirates and drug dealers they are often portrayed as. Ramirez is also driven by a personal quest to explore the origins of the Hispania and the history of his people, hoping to find a way to break the cycle of isolation and conflict that has defined the Outcasts' existence.
