Life in Doma

Nico is the step-son of Antonius Von Caedicius, a respected officer in the Garlean army. Taken in at a young age when Antonius took his mother as a spoil of war; the boy was taught in mostly Garlean mannerisms and culture. Near his tenth nameday, Nico's family was re-stationed at a fortress on Doma. Antonius Von Caedicius was tasked with putting down an Auri rebellion and even though the freedom fighters were defeated, Antonius lost his life in the battle. Nico was placed under the guardianship of the state of Garlemald. Removed from his mother, Nico was pulled from his current path of becoming a soldier and instead moved to the laboratories. Years would pass as the Garleans performed their experiments upon him, prisoners of war and citizens, the latter being voluntary. Most died under the procedures or went insane. Chemicals pumped into the bloodstream to damage nerve endings and weaken them mentally. The Garleams wanted soldiers that felt no pain and who would respond without hesitation to orders. Eventually another Auri rebellion broke out, causing enough of a distraction for Nico to kill his tormentors and escape the facility. He found passage to Eorzea on a refugee boat.
