==History==
There isn't much data about Curtain's origins; he said to be a [[Freeborn]], son of one or two warriors. At least one of his fathers, probably his mother, must have been an [[Elemental]] which fell to a lower caste, and he inherited her size. Following his mother's steps, he became a warrior. He once said to having fought [[Clan Ghost Bear]] warriors, but eventually get tired to being at the bottom of his caste, and left his Clan, with his 'Mech. He eventually settled on the planet [[Crimond]], migrating to the continent of Condor. Sometime later, he meet a [[Clan Sea Fox]] Merchant, selling him his 'Mech and some [[Star League]] relics from Condor's Fort Beaufort, obtaining in exchange a Regent 'Mech.

Curtain spend a lot of time on Condor. He didn't want to be a leader or a warrior, but with his experience and 'Mech, he became the ''de facto'' leader of the Condor's irregular militia.<ref>''A Lesson Learned''</ref><ref name=MHc10>''Mercenary's Honor'', ch. 10</ref>

Sometime during January of [[3152]], he heard than the Falcon's control of the planet had ended, and a new masters had arrived into the main continent, so he traveled there to search info. The 21st of the same month, he returned in a fishing boat to Condor. There he was received and driven home by his friend Any Ishikawa.

On 7 February, the Legion returned to their mainland, and Curtain went with them. He informed the Tamar liaison about the Condor's situation, despite the fact he wasn't anymore with them. As he said later to Bel's brother, [[Ronan Carlyle]], he, along with Ishikawa and some other Condors, had joined the Legion to pay a debt of gratitude with them. Isobel accepted him and even gave him the rank of [[sergeant]]. Ronan wasn't sure if he accepted him, but finally welcomed him into the Legion.<ref name=MHc11/>

* As Curtain was very reserved about his past, his Clan of origin is unknown, but at Pandora, Ronan Carlyle said than the Legion had ''former Jade Falcon'', in their ranks, and as the only known Clanner was Curtain, it's implied than it was him.<ref>''Decision at Pandora'', ch. 3</ref>

Curtain piloted a ''[[Regent]]'' [[OmniMech]], though on Gram, for his duel he piloted a customized [[Archer]].<ref name=MHc10/><ref>''A Lesson Learned''</ref>
