Known Equipment & Gear
L803 Boltru
Favorite of civilians, police and combat engineers across the frontier, the Boltru shotgun is a rugged and powerful pump-action shotgun firing 18.5x40mm disintegrating shot-cups from an internal 12-round tube magazine. Like all shotguns, the Boltru's true advantages lie in its close-quarters performance and the flexibility as regards ammunition. Capable of firing anything from plain-jane buckshot to exotic rounds like warp slugs, smart grenades or plasma toroids, the Bultru is a favorite among engineers, who have come up with any number of wacky loads for it.
A specialist weapon, the Boltru is rarely seen in the hands of Union front-line troops, as it lacks the range to keep up with combat where the typical engagement distance is in excess of 300 meters, but the squat, blocky-looking shotgun with it's over-folding stock and distinctive pump-grip remains both iconic and beloved by those troops who do make use of it. And woe betide he who finds himself on the wrong end of it.

Physical Profile
Unusually tall for a Turian, Caibus is often looked upon as a bit of a freak of nature, however while he may be very tall, he doesn't exactly have the bulk to fit his large frame, this means that while he is a very imposing figure, he often lacks the ability to deal with problems that would often be trivial to someone of his size. His Biotics are on par with the average Asari, thanks in part to a prototype amp that he "acquired" from a Turian research facility, however like the Human L2's of old, he suffers the occasional migraine and bout of nausea due to the amps prototype nature.
Psychological Profile
Caibus prefers to deal with problems with words more than actions, however is not above severely harming or torturing others if it comes down to it. He displays mild sociopathic tendencies,but anyone he calls a friend has gained an intensely loyal ally
Historical Profile
Caibus was born on Palaven in 2302, in the capital of New Cipritine, his mother was exposed to element zero during her pregnancy due to a drive core malfunction on the Ship that she served as an engineer on. During his military service, he displayed an unusual aptitude for sniper rifles, and was assigned the role of designated marksman after he completed his biotic training, which, considering that he is a Vanguard, is an odd role. After staying in the military for 15 years, he left at the age of 31 to pursue a more peaceful life, however this all changed when, during a shuttle trip to Illium to visit old friends a year later, the shuttle was attacked by pirates in search of slaves. What the pirates were not expecting was that the shuttle was transporting a squad of Black Star soldiers who were supposed to be going on shore leave when they arrived, and as you know soldiers are irritable at best before shore leave. Fortunately they all still had their equipment on them and were able to repel the boarders with little difficulty. Seeing how effective the Black Star soldiers were left Caibus in awe, they were easily on par with some of the Turian cabals, so, before the shuttle arrived at Illium, he asked one of the soldiers, a Lt. Frederick Whitford, how to go about joining the Black Star. The Lt. gave Caibus his contact details and said that he would inform him when their shore leave was over as they would be returning the headquarters for their next assignment. Caibus, after visiting his friends and catching up on what they had been doing since leaving the military, was contacted two days before his return shuttle was scheduled by Lt. Whitford, requesting Caibus to join him for their return journey. The journey was uneventful as no pirate or slaver would be stupid enough to attack a military transport shuttle, and when the shuttle arrived Caibus was directed to the recruitment offices, where he was asked to provide details on his military experience and have a full medical test done, a process which took a few hours, before he was once againg directed to another part of the station, the crew quarter, where he would meet his new Commanding Officer, the very same Lt. Whitford who had inspired him to join Black Star in the first place. Since then, Caibus has risen rapidly through the ranks, being a Sub-Lieutenant after only 14 months with Black Star, partly due to his experience in the turian military and partly due to how valuable his biotics have been on more critical missions.
Misc. Notes
Caibus prefers to wear heavy armour over the light or medium that is typical of vanguards due to the fact that it helps make up for the fact that he lacks the mass that makes a vanguards charge attacks so dangerous, and he uses his own custom Black Widow rifle because he believes that it far outclasses anything that the union has to fulfill the same role at this time.
