Family & History

Dominic lived alone with his father since he was very small after his parent got a divorce. His father worked as a miner, and so Dom lived in dorm housing with his father close to the site; so most days after school the boy would hang out at the site and watch the many machines and moving parts that caught his attention. The dynamics of these machines fascinated him. When he was older he began working with the folks at the mine who managed the equipment as a sort of apprentice of maintenance.
After the War kicked off, Dominic began to learn more about the Terran military, and in turn about the machines that the military used to drive its war effort. So for the sake of his own desire to simply work on some of these war machines as much as for the sake of helping fight the Drathonians, Dom enlisted as a Marine engineer.
