Notes:  The heir to a military family from a colony that had been glassed by Syndicate forces, Poseidon Zabat was orphaned at a young age.  Taken in by his older female cousin, who was in her late teens, he grew up influenced by her rage over how she saw Lianna's government first not having done anything to defend their home colony, let alone avenged their lost loved ones.  As such, it was no small wonder he eventually found his way into the Empire Of The Rising Sun's armed forces when he came of age through the like minded contacts the Zabats had been mingling with for as long as the boy could remember.
Poseidon's military service wasn't anything exemplary.  Instead, he fought he was told to fight and killed who he was told to kill.  Rising the old fashioned way through the ranks, he cared not about playing on his family's name and heritage to his benefit, instead he used his promotions as his own measuring stick for his strength.  Keeping to Zabat family traditions, Poseidon saw no reason to do otherwise as that would have gone against what it meant to be a Zabat.
It wasn't until Poseidon met Hera Kokinos that things changed.  Oddly, he proved the only one Hera listened to and felt no urge to turn her blade against.  Instead, he was the only one she treated like an equal.  Though this came as a shock to them both, their superiors felt their combination was one that would benefit Rising Sun in the long run.  Hera needed a 'leash' to pull her back during interrogations to make sure questions actually get asked and answered;  Poseidon needed a push to give him motivation to look ahead instead of watching his steps.  In their superiors' opinion, they felt the pair complemented each other in ways that allowed for this to be accomplished.
Currently, though they see each other as friends and colleagues, Hera and Poseidon do not have any form of physical relationship, not even a 'pass the time' type.  In spite of others trying to manipulate things to force them to pair off, they continue to slip through the cracks.  Of course, they conspire with each other on these situations, easily amused by their co-workers' antics.
