Little information is known about Christoph Nick's early life, save that the skilled warrior one day turned up on [[Tortuga Prime]] to join the pirate bands who operated there, more interested in the freedom offered by being a pirate rather than the power that resulted. Nick would work with various bands on Tortuga for many years and engage in numerous raids, but would studiously avoid enslaving anybody, a frequent point of contention with [[Paula_Trevaline|Dame Trevaline]]. Surviving her intermittent assassination attempts, while never entering into open conflict, the relationship between Trevaline and Nick would eventually sour to the point he could serve her no longer. One night Nick would flee Tortuga after he almost single-handedly freed two hundred slaves, stole three [[DropShip]]s and burned down four of Trevaline's stashes.<ref name=BTVG>''BattleTech'' (video game): Character profile</ref>

While Christoph Nick remains publicly tight lipped about his pirate days, his reputation frequently proceeds him wherever he goes. This may explain why he prefers to stay on the move, only working with mercenary units without a fixed contract.<ref name=BTVG/>

*At initial release the character's first name is occasionally spelled "Cristoph". [[Harebrained Schemes]] have confirmed that this is an unintended misspelling and indicated it needed to be corrected. (See also this article's [[Talk:Christoph Nick (Person)#Tribute|Talk page]]). The mistake was corrected in June 2018 as part of the first major update to the game (version 1.1).
