Angelus Nostos was born and raised in Caprica City. He was born to wealthy parents by the names of Gloria and Robert Nostos. His father was an investor in many different companies and his mother came from Old Caprican Money and this meant that as a child Angelus was lead all over the colonies on different visits with his father and mother as they went to see how their investments were doing. There were allegations at one point that many of these investments were to move illegally gained money for gangsters based out of Aquaria however these allegations turned out to be impossible to prove. In reality not even Angelus ever knew if his father was moving money around. Growing up Angelus was given every perk a child could get which for a child can sometimes be a dangerous thing. As he became a teenage he was showing signs of boredom from the wealth around him. He started to rebel quietly at first as he started meeting with other rich kids who would use their parents influence to keep them out of trouble. He became highly interested in two things one was getting into places he shouldnt be and the second was getting out of them. In fact he got so good at this he tricked his father into giving him magic lessons and even interning with a famous magician on Caprica by the name of Argos LeFluer and he would use these skills to help his friends walk into buildings and rooms that were locked and when needed to make sure they all got out without being seen. He was never caught and nothing was ever stolen because the thrill was for getting in and getting out.

Angelus rebelled in other ways as well as he enjoyed being young and dumb in his youth and he also started to become more and more charming as he was growing older. He also began to learn one lesson from his father and that is how important connections are. He learned to find anything he needed and when asked about how he got it his response was and is always the same, I know a guy. He has become legendary in the fleet for this skill of finding things. However, he continued to rebel as his father wanted him to become a businessman but he decided that he would become an officer in the Fleet. At first he was in ROTC in High School and his father was supportive at first because he felt it would give his son the idea that military life was not the way for Angelus to go. However, Angelus being the stubborn sort took to military life and it agreed with him as he became less rebellious and more focused. He enjoyed the idea that he could be an officer in the fleet and he enjoyed the pace of military life and its lack of frills. After graduating from high school he entered Capricas finest military academy where he showed a great deal of skill in gunnery, flight, and even being in enough physical shape that he could pull the Gs needed for flight. While in school he took a few courses in literature and while he earned good grades he half-assed that portion of his major so he has retained a slight bit of Colonial Literature but he is hardly an expert. One of the other things that Angelus also enjoys is a good fight and he has studied mixed martial arts for a while now. He always enters into every fight that is put on any assignment he is given and he has the skills to be a professional. He also has been working on his firearms skills and while they are to military standards they are not up to his standards so he spends regular amounts of time in the firing range practicing.

In terms of his career he had been serving on the Battlestar Pegasus for a while and he worked incredibly hard at his job to earn the rank of Lieutenant Junior Grade. He has served the fleet incredibly well and he has committed himself into become the best pilot he can be even though his father still thinks this is a phase. Recently he was re-assigned to the Cerberus as the CAG felt he might have a better chance for promotion on a new ship since the competition on the Pegasus is incredibly fierce. However, to his credit he has been given the highest recommendations in the fleet and his record is clean. Nostos now has the task of proving himself to a new crew and a new Captain and he hopes to make Lieutenant as soon as he can since he hopes to one day be in command of his own squadron and possibly CAG. However, his long term goal is to one day become a Commander of his own Battlestar but only when he is to old to fly.

Immediate Family

Gloria Nostos, Mother — Maryann comes from old Caprican money the sort that has been bathed in luxury and still managed to survive the Cylon war. It wasn't hard for them since they had the money and the influence to get things reshaped in Caprica with her ties to the many political and social networks of Caprica's eliete. She loves Angelus dearly and while she might look like a martini swilling socialite who has a little to much she is probably controlling everyone in the room around her.

Robert Nostos, Father — Johnathan Nostos is a full on business investment especially with ties to Aquaria and Sagittaron. He has made a lot of money though some rumor that his money has been made from laundering for various mafia groups around the Colonies - however this has never been proven. Johnathan loves his son more than anything. This is evidenced in the one time it was suspicioned that his son and a few friends broke into one of the Delphi Museum at night to see if they could do it - no charges were made and there were no investigations either after a few words from his Father to the Mayor. Jonathan really wishes that his son didn't become an Officer in the Fleet. Still though he plays it up publically speaking of his strong support for the colonies.

Service Jacket

Physical Features

Angelus Nostos is taller than the average bear as he stands at a good six one and a half or one point eight seven meters. Not only is he tall but he is muscular as from head to toe, this especially true of his broad shoulders and strong arms which makes him look something like a marine…though he is a flyboy through and through and the glint in his brown eyes shows it. His face is a ruggedly handsome affair as he has a cut chin and good looks. His brown hair is cut short and kept up to military standards.
