Macen Barro

Macen Barro Verrikinus was born into the prestigious House Barro on Palaven and quickly became the rising star of his dynasty. Called "a shining example of a turian citizen" by his distant cousin, Admiral Astraea Mehrkuri, Macen served his people as an engineer in the Blackwatch, the Aurelian Empire's elite counter-terrorism and espionage division. He was exceptionally talented and earned numerous commendations and awards over his career as an agent. He was touted as a potential replacement for the Ferrum Primum but instead chose to retire and took the job of Turian Pathfinder with the Andromeda Initiative, much to the horror of his family. 
Macen travelled to Andromeda with his lover and bondmate, Avitus Rix, a retired turian Spectre, whom he made his second-in-command. He intended that the pair of them be able to live a life outside of the shadows together. However, when the turian Ark Natanus collided with the Scourge, Macen sustained life-changing injuries that disrupted his SAM implant and triggered a lengthy period of post-traumatic retrograde amnesia. Macen was unable to recall memories of people and places, a fact which put a serious strain on his existing relationship with Avitus. Macen would eventually overcome his amnesia with Avitus' support.
The pair have a daughter called Nova Barro, whom Macen dotes upon. Now retired from the role of Pathfinder, he lives with his husband and daughter on the turian colony world that he discovered and founded decades earlier.
