Castor

"A rational man would let you live, he would nurture you and train you and mould you into a useful tool. Such a shame then, that I am not a rational man."

Known Information
There is little to learn about the man known simply as Castor. His profession is a secret, a smuggler to some, a fixer to others and sometimes an Inquisitor if it will open doors faster, but much of his life is shrouded in a thick layer of secrets and lies that even the savviest of investigators have failed to penetrate.

Simply put, Castor does what Castor wants and somehow turns a vast profit out of every decision. But even this frightening acumen and copious wealth does not explain even an iota of the man, for his augments are inhuman, his skills unearthly and his knowledge frightening and the only information about those who hire this secret made manifest is a name.

The Amaranthine Syndicate.

Machiavellian
After aiding the Covenant in their escape, Castor quickly hurried to Arcen Station where, after some time to recover, he found his newly found allies some work with an old friend. He put them in contact with Lord-Commander Cain of The Shattered Lords and helped them prepare for what would be the harbinger of the Covenant, the desecration of Malfi.

He then later met the Macabre within the Koronus Expanse as the group recovered from their ordeals upon the World of Crow. He learnt of their desire to rescue Kelmec's people and so set up a meeting with the Pirates of Iniquity, lead by the Lady, a woman feared for her complete and unrelenting control of the Sector and one who would provide what was needed for such an incursion.

The Turn of a Century
Since then however, Castor has found himself thrown into a world he wished greatly to avoid. With the outing of the Amaranthine Syndicate to the Inquisition and the Shadow War that erupted within them, the Calixis Sector has been thrown into absolute turmoil with groups that once fought through politics resorting to bloody war in the streets. Castor currently finds himself in the Screaming Vortex, readying the armada of the Amaranthine Syndicate to do battle against humanity but secretly he holds doubts about the success of such an audacious plan for the Imperium has not been know to surrender worlds lightly and to turn the gaze of Terra upon them would spell out their doom through fire and fury.

As such, Castor has already organized a meeting with Lord-Commander Cain, an old and reliable ally, in order to find an alternative to his current predicament and, as Castor always does, to turn a profit.
