Benoit Breau was born on January 17 in the year 100 on Botane VI in the Sinq Laison Region. While his father was an important Gallente Diplomat, even early on he wanted to become a capsuleer like his mother used to be. So after finishing his school education he took off to the Center for Advanced Studies in 116, where he graduated best of his class in 118. After his Graduation he started fighting off pirates for the Federal Navy. But he soon realized he was meant for more.
In March 119 he was offered a mercenary job for Covert Reconnaissance Inc. who by then had established a small corporation in the Syndicate. At the time CovRe had its Infrastructure regulary raided by vicious space russians. After Breau moved his base of operation to the Syndicate the russians were so afraid that head-on combat became rare (correlation is merely implied). Instead the space russians lay in ambush in a pathetic attempt to disturb CovRe's operations.
