Bialar Crais was born in a Caldari farming community, but while still a boy, he and his younger brother Tauvo were taken from their family and conscripted against their will into the military.

Crais' respect for the Caldari mandates is unclear; at times, he's the flagbearer for military tradition; at other times, he's a renegade. Anything that could be construed as a challenge to his authority terrifies him. Crais simply wants the universe to operate by his rules. And only Crais knows what his rules are.
