Born on a freighter to two cargo pilots, Lily was brought up amongst the stars. Her parents being traders, she naturally grew up learning the trade and being able to pilot a ship by age 12. Unable to obtain her pilots licence until 18, she helped her parents performing systems maintenance and assisted in plotting of their hyperspace jumps, resulting in her developing essential navigational skills. Alongside this, she would also work with her mother when negotiating with her trade contacts, developing haggling skills and business acumen that would be vital for her future.

Once she had claimed her Pilots Licence (after both impressing and terrifying the instructor with her unorthodox flying), Lily immediately set off in her own direction, picking up her standard Pilots Federation Sidewinder and set out to start her own trading network just like her parents. Eventually earning her Type-9, she had amassed over a billion Credits and even climbing up to gain her Trading Elite Rank to further prove her prowess at the Art of the Deal.

During her time as CEO of the Blossom Trading Company, Lily had made several connections amongst the Empire's elite. This opened up many opportunities for her, but one day also led to her eventual downfall in Ocairi, her then current Headquarters for BTC. An Imperial Captain had personally ordered a specially modified Frame Shift Drive from Lily, who's Engineer contacts could prepare for her. However, a terrible accident orchestrated by a nefarious criminal organisation led to the deaths of the Captain and his family, as well as the lives of 45 other people. Being labeled as the only suspect, Lily was arrested and interrogated for an extended period of time.

In a heroic rescue attempt, several of her personal contacts managed to aid in her escape from IIS custody, in which Lily and her compatriots hijacked a captured Federal Corvette and fled into neutral space. Cut off from her support, Lily sought refuge in Nova Imperial space to which she found safety from those who would seek harm to her. During this time, she began to scour the under-hives of Imperial Space, eventually finding evidence of a conspiracy behind the scenes. With the overwhelming evidence pointing to the real group behind the assassination, Lily was officially granted a pardon for escaping Imperial Custody and had the murder charges of the Imperial Captain waived from her record.

However, this was not the end of her persecution, as the Blossom Trading Company moved it's Headquarters into Nova space. With the rising tensions between the Empire and the Imperium, it wasn't long before Lily was forced to choose sides. With the Imperium helping her in her time of need, she felt obligated to aid them and soon became an enemy of the Empire. With her introduction to the Nova Navy, Lily quickly made a name for herself through her extremely ruthless tactics in conflicts, often inflicting dozens of enemy casualties in each skirmish, even going as far as using her ship itself as a weapon against those within her firing range. Using BTC, Lily was also capable of supplying the Imperium with much needed weapons and supplies that it otherwise could not have acquired otherwise. Finally, with her contacts all over the Empire, it was not long before she had a reliable intelligence networked that spanned all across Imperial space.

Due to all this, it was not long before her actions were rewarded as Lily became one of the Trierarchus of the Nova Imperium, asserting her status as a Captain of the Imperium. As a Trierarch, it was not long before her list of deeds soon expanded. With each month, Lily slowly descended from unyielding loyalty to the Imperium into full-blown fanaticism, often committing questionable acts all for the good of the Imperium. After the acknowledgement of Hadrian Augustus Duval's royal heritage by the Imperial Emperor and the subsequent pardon of all Nova Imperium forces, Lily then turned her gaze at those who would reject the Imperator's light.

With her new-found fanaticism, it was not long before she was granted the honour of serving as one of the Nauarchus, an Admiral for the Nova Navy that would help drive their forces forwards towards glory.

With her flagship, the NNV Purity's Flame, as well as her personal fleet of ships, she now leads the Imperial Battle Group Crimson Dawn against the forces that stand in the way of the Imperium, wherever they may hide.
