Origin Path: Rogue Trader < Prestige < Dark Voyage < Duty Bound < Savant < Noble Born
Very basic outline of the Havarro Dynasty and what has led to Pietro becoming Lord-Captain of his own vessel:
Noble-born, Pietro knew from a young age that his destiny was to further the goals and profits of the Havarro Dynasty. The Rogue Trader family had never been extremely large, but they had been successful enough. The family specialized in raising their children up through the Scholam and Collegium Militarium, ingraining deep wisdom, valuable training, and irreplaceable real-world experience.
Following the dynasty's plan has worked for the past seven generations, starting with the very first Havarro Rogue Trader, Esteves Raul Havarro. Like his illustrious ancestor, Pietro spent nearly a decade in the halls of Schola after Schola, learning logic, philosophy, religion, history, and the physical sciences. Savant
From there, Pietro was commissioned as an Ensign in the Imperial Navy. He spent the early years of his career working carefully to cultivate relationships, friends, and more than a few rivalries amongst the other officers, but remained ever mindful of the Havarro Dynasty's eventual goal for him. He took calculated risks, always with sufficient buffers between him and the true threats involved, and rose through the ranks of the Imperial Navy in good stead. Duty Bound
All went according to plan for both Pietro and the Havarro Dynasty in general, until one fateful trip. By now serving as Executive Office onboard a Naval Battle Cruiser, the Pride of Celedar, Pietro gave an excellent account of himself when their vessel was knocked out of the Empyrean and beset by Dark Eldar raiders. Pietro singlehandedly slew several of the xenos pirates after they boarded the ship, and led a successful counterattack with the ship's marines and junior officers. It was during this encounter that he was awarded the power sword that still graces his side to this day. Dark Voyage
After that failed expedition, Pietro contacted his family and informed them of his readiness to take on the life he was destined to lead. Agreeing with his decision, and fully cognizant of the satisfactory, if not illustrious and glory-draped, career he had achieved, they bought out his commission and set him up with his own vessel. Having accumulated talented and driven crew members from his years of wandering the stars, Pietro stands poised to drive the prestige and glory of the Havarro Dynasty to even greater heights.
