Domitius Ilyin

Domitius Ilyin, in a Snow Storm in Vlukai

## Biography

### Early Life

Domitius Ilyin was born on the Northern Continent of Vlukai on Rasterous. Vlukai is nearly in constant winter pretty overlapping exclusively with the polar region. This place was hard to build infrastructure in, as many electronics would fail in the north. This resulted in it being barren of modern developments, small cities of wood being some of the most advanced structures that could be created, and last. Domitius was Born here, his childhood is little known as he states that it's the "Boring parts". So he lived his adult life as a humanitarian, when he heard a person, or even families in need of food, he often was seen going out hunting alone for days at a time with nothing but warm clothes and a slug thrower. Coming back with a sled he didnt leave with, carrying many large beasts of the frontier. When he wasnt hunting for others sake, he hunted for money, selling everything that could be off animals he killed. Using a lot of the money to purchase local medications, and simply running small clinics in any building he could rent out. He lived this way for 17 years through his adult life, until Republic forces came to start improving infrastructure in the area themselves, from what he heard under threat Rasterous's Shipyards would stop aiding the Republic.

### Imperial Service

With this development Domitius figured Vlukai wouldn't need a single good man anymore when they had 1,000s. So he moved South to the Capital City of Rasterous "Omnis". There he found out more of the nature of the galaxy at wide, and saw propaganda for the Republic Navy, gargantuan ships, and more importantly the newest experience he could get. So he went to the nearest Republic Recruiting station and was sent to the Naval academy connected to Rasterous's shipyards and begun training on a Arquitens. It was relatively uneventful, he wasnt able to relate to his peers as very few live in Vlukai and Fewer still leave. During this time some mistake in the engines of the ship caused a detonation of the fuel tank. Which killed much of the recruits on board, leaving him heavily injured floating through space. Picked up quickly by pods from the Shipyards he had to be given cybernetic eyes, nose, and cervical vertebrae.

#### Time injured

During his recovery on the surface of Rasterous he found out about a little known group that called themselves "Transorganics". This group believed a merging of machine and man is the "Ultimate being", the Perfect calculations of a droid leaves them nearly undefeatable in a battle of the minds, and the ability to recognize patterns and emotions of organics allow for the ability to function in battle against other organics. Domitius couldnt say he disagreed with this belief, he had been able to breath noticably easier with his cybernetic nose, he didnt suffer from myopia with his Cybernetic eyes, and he spinal column now made of metal would never be severed as easily as it was. This first seeded the ideas of replacing sections of his body willingly with cybernetic parts within Ilyin.

#### Return in the next class of the Navy

When Domitius was allowed to return to the Navy it was no longer the Republic Training him, but the Empire. He instantly noticed more strict policies, but he rarely came into conflict with his superiors. He easily passed the Academy, it wasnt record breaking grades but he was in the higher percentiles. And thus joined the Imperial Navy and was sent to the IV-Phalanx.

#### Time on the ISD-Phaedra

During his time on the Phaedra, Domitius has faced many things. Most notable as of yet is when he left with a few crew members on the IA-Trebuchet, and were forced to land on an uncharted planetoid. During his time on there he faced many difficulties such as investigating why there was a variety of corpses dying to lacerations and blunt force trauma. Being the only medic for any injuries taken, and ultimately falling 50 feet down an elevator shaft, and being kidnapped by a crazed inhabitant which removed one of his eyes, and damaged his nose prosthetic and other eyes. Causing him to need a new set of prosthetics.

## Appearance

Domitius Ilyin is a relatively tall Man at 6'1" but wasnt large in mass weighing a bit less than the average clone. He is muscular as he never gave up exercise from back in his time in the Vlukai Wilderness. Since he originally had Cybernetic Replacements he's sinced added enchancements. He has a Robotic spine connecting his Thoracic Vertebrae to his Skull. He has a Rebreather melded to his jaw, which can take from external air with heavy filters. Finally he has 2 red Photoreceptor eyes.

## Personality

Domitius Ilyin tends to act with much confidence behind his actions with this he has been able to get people to listen to him that have no obligation to. He usually jokes around, but when things are serious he will start disciplining others, even if the others are his superiors. This was shown during Geonosis when he ensured a Petty Officer II and III class didnt stress out too much and get the ship blown up.

### Relationships

#### Devda of Serenno

Ilyin often has interesting albeit unnecessary conversations with Devda, he doesn't consider him any better than the average crewman but he does consider him and acquaintance.

#### Captain Tomas Botav

While Ilyin hasn't known Botav for long he appreciates his willingness to hear the suggestions of those below him.

#### Arcandal Hex

Ilyin has a slight dislike towards Hex, her attitude swinging between half capable and sure enough to insult those for little to no reason is a reason for that. He is most impressed by her capability to score so high in Parsec 5 Academy and be so unable to establish herself, she referred to her first meeting with Botav as "Intimidating".
