Orthox De Massie was a guardian of the Vulcan Empire.
He didn't start off that way. Like many other dwarves, he originated from a different state from the Smiling Samuel Star Sector.
His early life as a heavy gravity variant human was different from many other people of his kind.
He grew up surrounded by privilege. He was one of the few dwarves in the galaxy who was lucky enough to be born on a heavy gravity planet that was not populated by destitute miners.
The state that controlled the planet was a benevolent republic that believed in fairness and enlightenment. The planetary governor and the local administration were also fair and never discriminated between human and dwarves.
As a result, a large population of dwarves had formed that had risen up from their mining roots and constituted much of the middle-class on the heavy gravity planet.
