After a pretty rough youth spent looking after an alcoholic father and earning coins as a burglar, Syco turned his life around and decided to pass on the other side of the law. He spent five years as a bounty hunter in Absalom, until one day he helped a group of Pathfinders thwarting the plans of an evil mastermind. He was granted a Field Commission to join the Society, an occasion he seized without second thoughts. After the death of his drunkard parent he started accepting jobs to travel throughout Golarion.
