HISTORY
Calintz’s early life was incredibly turbulent. His mother, Elsa Duskrider, had died only a few years after giving birth to him. Elsa had been a frail woman, and the strain of bringing a Riskbreaker and son of a half-giant into the world soon proved too much for her body to handle. Losing Elsa crippled Shane, Calintz’s father, with grief. Shane wrongfully blamed Calintz for the death of his wife, and proceeded to take out his anger and sense of helplessness on his son. Rather than fight back, however, Calintz tried his best to be good to his father and take care of him, even as he was struggling with his nature as a Riskbreaker.
Suffice to say, the Malice Kings of the Methuselah were closely monitoring Calintz’s situation. Shane had once been a Malice King under Aidan’s command, and many high-ranking operatives – saddened by his downward spiral – wanted to see what they could do for his son. Furthermore, the Duskrider Family had been a long and proud line of Keepers of the Vigil within the conspiracy since the first of their number, John Duskrider. Aidan – acting on Setsuna’s advice – eventually intervened when Calintz was fifteen, and took the Riskbreaker under his wing. Calintz, out of gratefulness and the personal drive to befriend Aidan, applied himself to his newfound duties with the Methuselah with zeal. His devotion to Aidan was soon matched by his devotion to Rilea Heartnet, the famed Liberty’s Belle and the old flame of his ancestor John.
Calintz balanced his time between his duties as a Malice King and serving as the Methuselah’s liaison to the American Chapter of Aegis Kai Doru. He was responsible for monitoring the movements of the criminal syndicates within the United States, and for establishing favorable connections to the underbelly of society for the Methuselah. He continued to try and find a place for himself in his father’s life, intent, as he was, on not being crippled by bitterness or resentment towards his father. His efforts finally bore fruit a little after World War II, when Shane started pulling himself out of his funk. It was at that point that Aidan had Calintz leave his operations within the Americas to other Inquisitors, and focus his efforts on reinforcing the Methuselah’s position in Asia. The Philippines became central to Calintz’s plans because of its geographical location and the many ties that Calintz’s old gangs had with the underbelly of Filipino society.
2012 was another challenging year for Calintz. Beyond the fact that he was beginning to question his place in Rilea’s life (something that only resolved itself after they nearly broke apart for good), this was also the year that marked the most turbulent times of the Methuselah and the rise of Netsach. The challenges did not end with Operation Nyx either: after he and Rilea got married in June 2013, Calintz left the Philippines in order to travel the world, facilitating the expansion of the Steel Wings and the Pariah Special Forces. The two groups were originally divisions under Netsach and the Methuselah, and – in light of the Breaking of the Veil and the First Reforms – it became obvious to the leaders of both conspiracies that the divisions would need to combine forces, and be developed as a conspiracy all on its own. By the beginning of the First Reforms, the new conspiracy – the Midnight Riders – was ready. Calintz was their first commander.
When Grendal emerged, Calintz relinquished his position as the Commander of the Midnight Riders to his father Shane, and took charge of Netsach’s contingent in Africa. He was Kaiser Liandrin Delacroix’s main representative in the area, handling as much as he could in her place. Two other groups that he was heavily involved with was Wakiya (he helped his wife establish Netsach’s presence in the United States of America), and with the Phoenix War between Aegis Kai Doru and the Ascending Ones. Fortunately, Calintz survived both conflicts, and lived to see the end of the Darkest Vigil.
CURRENT STATUS
Calintz returned to the Philippines after the Armistice at Blaece, and has settled permanently in the Falner Estate with his family. He is now serving as Netsach’s liaison to the Midnight Riders.
PSYCHOLOGICAL PROFILE
Calintz’s confidence, disarming charm and friendly disposition are grounded upon a very solid personal foundation. He has no inherent insecurities, no more unresolved issues from the past, and is as capable of loving himself as he is of loving other people. All aspects of his life, in his opinion, appear to be well under his control, further fortifying his spirit.
On the battlefield and during major operations, however, the sharp edges of Calintz’s personality come out. He can be decisive and incredibly pragmatic, uncompromising towards his enemies and towards his own performance. While he has marked out very clear lines that he will not cross, Calintz will not shirk away from the need to fight, no matter how brutal it could get.
THREAT LEVEL
CONSIDERABLE/NOT-FACTOR. Even before his dedication to today’s Vigil, Calintz has always considered Aidan’s cause to be his cause – this has extended, by merit of his close relationship with the Voidseeker, to the causes of his comrades within the Malice Kings, as he views the others as his surrogate family. He has, since the beginning, been loyal to the man and not to the conspiracy: this held true while he was a part of the Methuselah, and has carried over for him in Netsach. In that same sense, however, Calintz’s destructive capability is not a cause for alarm. He will only move if Aidan moves.
