Biography
Niklas Mackie was raised by a single father in Laborer section. Niklas was given placement in Sentry section at age eleven. It was then that he met Jaron Trottier, a boy two years older who was in the same training group.

Despite scoring very high marks in all his lessons, Niklas' father's position was a frequent issue for him with others in his training group. Because of this, he went above and beyond to prove that he deserved a position in the Sentry.

Although Jaron's family had the same beliefs about social hierarchy, the two grew close during their training. He was devastated when he received word that both Jaron and Noella had been killed in an accident.

Niklas passed his test without issue and spent the next decade working as a basic level Sentry. He was in the process of applying for a position with the Royal Sentry when news of King Phineas' assassination came in.

Niklas was part of the squad led by Kavon Trombly the night Alkwin infiltrated Eden in order to rescue the Tainted in the city. After learning the truth, he stood with the team guarding the wall so the Tainted could escape. Despite the danger, he made a stand against the Sentry the following day as they attacked citizens who showed support for Gryffin. He was arrested and remained in the prison until Alkwin's people released them.

After taking the serum and being released, Niklas stayed at Gryffin's side as they marched across Eden. He was part of the small team that went with the princes and Leeya into the palace in order to arrest Dex and the council. The following day, he was given a position on the Royal Sentry.
