## Early Life [3164 - 3184]

Daughter to High Ministrar Sepens Lamella Scorodus and High Auditor Serpens Lamella Lina in the Hroan capitol city of Sero’ak, Euco grew up alongside her older brother Flint and family friend Veles Volokh. Her parents, both ardent players of The Last Houses of Illix, ensured that she developed a tactical understanding and view of the world, always looking for the right edge. Her father, being a high ministrar, ensured that both her and her brother had an understanding of the diplomatic world of the sector, while her mother ensured they were combat trained.

At the age of 12 Euco's MES first began to manifest itself, showing only signs of Telepathy. At that time, she was sent off to the Academy to fully train her powers. During that time, one Nominator became adamantly convinced she had metapsionic abilities despite her showing no immediately obvious signs, and demanded she be given active teaching for the discipline as well.

While not a model student by any stretch, she excelled in her Telepathy-related training, and showed a degree of business acumen not often found among members of House Serpens. Given her Telepathic ability, she opted to train as both an Auditor and a Ministra, but the war against the artificals gave her a clear call towards joining the Auditors, which she joined upon completing her time at the Academy.

## Early Career [3184-3196]

For the first five years of her career, Euco worked solely as an auditor. This coincided nearly perfectly with the joining of all minor houses into the war. As part of the Auditors, Euco was one of many tasked with rooting out synthetics from the internal structures of the various houses. On rare occasion, she was also talked with eliminating designated threats to House Serpens, in some cases being specifically ordered to mark certain people as synthetics incorrectly.
