Biography
Sterling was born in Angelis City, the metropolitan capital of Angelis City. His father was an officer of Angelis Security Patrol while his mother was a nurse. He grew up idolizing his father for his heroics as he was a known legend in the city, so much so that he'd hear stories about his father's exploits every two-weeks at his favorite barbershop. One day, everything would change when his father was killed while on patrol; Sterling was seven years old at the time. This loss would forever scar him but it would also inspire him to carry on his father's legacy and continue to build up his family's good name.

He dropped out of college when he was a sophomore at age eighteen to devote 100% of his time to his newest interest; the Colonial Defense. For seven years, Sterling would travel the galaxy but he would eventually make his way home to Angelis, particularly to see his ailing mother. He stayed with his mother until the end, when she passed on. Sterling would stay on Angelis and become an officer of the law, like his father. In time, he would become a detective.

Personality
Sterling is an incredibly tough man, completely emotionally-guarded which is a trait stemming from the pain caused by the death of his father. The man's massive build was enough to intimidate any suspect he encountered and he became even more terrifying when his violent temper was unleashed. Though he was particularly shut-off emotionally, excluding anger, it was obvious that he had a good heart. His strong sense of justice combined with his care for victims of crimes would make him approachable to the people of Angelis City, thereby making his connections into the city deep.
