History

Silas grew up in a small town in Western Canada with both his parents and a younger brother. He worked on a local ranch as a farm-hand through his teenage years, and soon was put in control of branding the new calves due to his strength and quick reflexes. He never worked out much, but his work kept him fit and in top physical condition. After high-school, Silas took a year of full time work at the ranch before deciding to join the Navy. He wanted to travel, but also to have a chance at further education that his finances could not afford him. The young eagle spend five years in the service and saw combat twice, but also earned a degree in Civil Engineering. He now works as a team-lead on the construction of offshore installations in the oil and gas industry.
