History[edit]

Investigation into the assassination of Melissa Steiner-Davion[edit]

Curaitis would personally oversee the narco-interrogation sessions with the Assassin. By 12 September 3055 those sessions had begun to deliver results, with the Assassin revealing how he'd received jobs and those connections he'd received them from, but also confirming that he'd been hired by someone within the Federated Commonwealth rather than an outside power[1]. With the interrogations concluded by 25 October 3055, rather than have the Assassin hanged, the Archon-Prince swore Curaitis to secrecy and ordered him transferred to the Grace of God Leprosarium on Poulsbo in the Federated Commonwealth's Periphery March, ensuring he was given resources to enhance his skill as an assassin, planning to use him against those who hired him to kill his mother[2][3][4][5]. It would not be until near the end of the FedCom Civil War that Curaltis would obtain enough evidence to convincingly implicate Katherine Steiner-Davion in the death of her mother.

The assassination of Ryan Steiner[edit]

Following Free Skye's attempt to frame Peter Steiner-Davion for the destruction of a hamlet on Lyons, it was Curaitis that counseled Victor that it was a premature move to move against Ryan Steiner without confirmed evidence of guilt. However on 13 April 3056 Prince Victor ordered the Dancing Joker to be moved to a safe house on Solaris in preparation for the hit, being convinced Ryan would soon make a mistake and reveal his hand.[6] After some issues with working with Dancing Joker, Curaitis questioned if the Assassin overstated his value, and noted that Victor would not forgive him for the death of his mother.[7] Following the assassination of Galen Cox by Ryan Steiner, while lacking evidence that would stand up in court, at his sister Katherine's urging Victor believed he had enough proof on 23 April 3056 to order Curaitis, to activate the Assassin[8] who completed the hit the very next day[9].
