"70 years after peace was settled between the Federation and Caldari State, Akir Apathi was born into a family which cherished stoic ideals of duty to the State above all else. Albeit that some would call Caldari State a "ruthless" and cold society, Akir Apathi holds the State close to his heart, as it gives birth to the most will-powered patriotic pilots to roam the skies of New Eden. To be a Caldari is to be strong and fierce; it's to be hard and patient. Only the strong may call themselves Caldari. Only the hard."
