Odion is the antithesis of being born with a silver spoon in one's mouth. His father was a prominent trader and his mother was born into high society. Whatever he wanted he got, it was never a matter of if, it was a matter of when. There was only one unscrupulous activity he partook in at a young age which stemmed from his mother’s crippling gambling addiction. He would frequent gambling dens with his mother, his age preventing him from participating. While he couldn’t play, he took the opportunity to watch. Every tactic, rule, and bluff he learned, but most importantly he learned how to cheat. Card counting, card marking, and sleight of hand, Odion learned them all to tip the scales in his favor. His world would come crashing down though when his parent were discovered to be guilty of supporting a resistance which sought to bring down The Empire. Their lives and fortune would be confiscated, but as there was no proof he was ever involved, Odion was set free. With nothing to his name, Odion decided to choose the only option he had. After begging for some coin, he marched into the nearest gambling den and from there would begin to reemass a fortune.
