## Biography

### Early Life

Annuit Makultra was born on the planet Proximus. By the time he was an adult, Makultra took the position of ambassador of his homeworld to the UCR.

### Trial of the Dawns

In 5957 ASA, the Praeliorian emissary Gris Véridémi arrived to tell the Galactic Embassy about the wrongdoings of the Dawns—a group of freedom fighters which Véridémi deemed terrorists—while also attempting to earn an observer seat in the embassy. Senator Jove Scorzalita of Cascade wished to start a private investigation on the Dawns, as he did not believe that they were guilty of the crimes that the ambassadors of the Galactic Embassy were claiming they committed.

#### Meeting with the Cascadian Senator

Knowing of Proximus' reputation with espionage, Scorzalita sought help from Annuit Makultra. While Makultra had his suspicions on the emissary (as he believed Praeliorians were deceptive by nature), he turned down Scorzalita's offer to be part of the private investigation. Makultra first asked Scorzalita if he wanted Makultra to help prove the emissary's guilt or rather prove the innocence of the Dawns, to which Scorzalita admitted to mostly the latter being his reasoning. Makultra encouraged Scorzalita to conduct the investigation on his own, as he believed Jove had all the connections he needed already. He assured Scorzalita that Proximus would continue to be neutral and abstain so long as the matter didn't affect them, and Scorzalita thanked him for hearing him out. Makultra also asked Jove to tell Aetherian Ambassador Apollo Vopordna to stop involving him in their schemes, as Makultra himself said he had a job to do. With a soft chuckle, Jove agrees to this and leaves the Proxim's office.

#### Growing Frustrations

As the hearings regarding the Dawns continued, several politicians grew further in disdain towards Borealan Ambassador Percival Hayes, who continued to sway the Galactic Embassy into antagonizing the Dawns and rooting for an observer seat for Praelior. Ambassador Enyalios of Dremirus and Senator Crest of Galatea were among the few who grew frustrated with Hayes' tendency to take over the conversation without letting any opposition try to raise an argument for the Dawns. The two Dremirian politicians believe that no one's able to get a word in during the hearings, to which Vopordna and Scorzalita agree. Makultra joined the conversation an added that while everyone could agree on Percival's behavior, it was a matter of whether or not the embassy cared enough to oppose them. Enyalios lamented that not many cared about the emissary growing the seeds of power within the UCR. Apollo and Jove propose a plan for Enyalios to speak out against Percival and against Praeliorian presence in the UCR. All five politicians agreed on the plan. Makultra was one of the many ambassadors who witnessed Enyalios' speech denouncing the Praeliorians that same day, and was there to witness Percival's charismatic rebuttal.

#### The Final Hearing

Annuit Makultra was present for the final hearing regarding the Dawns. To the surprise of almost all of the Galactic Embassy, the Dawns stormed into the embassy building on the *Gravity Well*, a ship owned by the Morkarian privateer, Tiberius Stede. Accompanying them was House Lafayette, who all mysteriously went missing after Alden Lafayette's sudden resignation as ambassador many years prior. Makultra witnessed the Dawns clear their names with valid evidence provided by both themselves and the Cascadian Quaestorium.

## Personality and Traits

Annuit was a Proxim man with pale grey skin, grey hair, and completely blue eyes. Had often had a stern look on his face, as many often noted.

Both as a politician and as a person, Annuit was described by many of his political colleagues as being robotic and by-the-book, a common trait for many Proxim. He preferred not to get into affairs if they did not concern him nor his people.
