Personal history

Vico was born on the streets of Uxphon, or so he thinks. His earliest memories are of stealing to survive and living in the pipes.
 
While still a child, he was taken in for a time by an Aeon Priest who had discovered his potential as a nano. The priest attempted to teach Vico that life was more than fighting, stealing and hiding and for a time, the boy enjoyed something of a peaceful life. Disaster struck when his instincts got the better of him and he was caught trying to lift a piece of numenera off of an Uxphon noble. This event shaped much of Vico's teenage years, as his guardian was disgraced and later perished in imprisonment and he was sentenced to slavery. By some miracle, Vico escaped before the slavers could take him, but any chance for a peaceful life vanished.
 
The following years were a blur, running with various gangs, making life difficult for the oligarchs of Uxphon when he could and living as if there was no tomorrow.
 
Nowadays, he has gained a reputation as a fearless, notoriously hard to pin down troublemaker. He takes any job that hurts the noble families, keeps many acquaintances but few friends and does what he pleases with little care for consequences.
