House Cadriaan was notorious for its mafioso style of government, and at the age of thirteen the Yen branch of the House was slaughtered, and Néron was captured. He was sent to a boarding school, where he would not be able to reveal the crime committed against the Yen family. He harboured his anger until he was sixteen years old, when he snapped and killed three fellow students. To further ensure he kept silent, he was sent to a prison facility on Ryloth, well away from Cadriaan affairs.
