Info here was available from official records before Kate was made a part of the Templar Order 7 years ago. This information is now held within Templar archives only, and as such is available to the Inquisition.

Kate Michaels was born to a Major in the British Army, Edward Michaels (33) and his wife Katherine (29) at a facility in RAF Gatow in Berlin, where Major Michaels was attached to the Army Air Corps, on 10th October 1978.

In tactical exercises in later school years Kate gained something of a reputation as someone you could reliably bet on to come out on top. But Kate never really made any connections in the school, being something of a loner perhaps unsurprisingly. She had no sense of loyalty to her team mates and often found ways to sacrifice them as diversions if it could help her achieve her objectives. She retained this ‘victory at any cost’ method through to her graduation in 1997 at 18 and was the first of the Michaels line ever to graduate without honours. It is understood that Kate has been estranged from her father since then.

After graduation Kate joined the Metropolitan Police in London. Once her training was out of the way (highly capable in all methods of...
