Assimilating himself into the clandestine society, Nichos claimed his niche in the Obelisk Order, his martial knowledge and onslaught of scholarly pursuits seeing him rise quickly through the ensign ranks of Clan Tarentum.
Assigned to House Gladius, Nichos soon developed a relationship with Dralin Fortea, with whom, for some reason, the bizarre Nichos seemed to identify. The Master-Apprentice consanguinity is a kinship that Nichos honors fiercely, and he has pledged himself to follow Dralin to the edges of the galaxy.
His role within the Order has begun to take shape as a veritable shadow, becoming ever more acquainted with the arts of silence, war and death that will make him a valuable asset as an Assassin of the Obelisk.
