Quick facts:August Dunlow
August Dunlow was the founder of Crusader Industries and major philanthropist.
Early life
Born on Angeli in the Croshaw system in 2770,[1] he was orphaned in the aftermath of the bloody Khanos Stadium coup that ousted Imperator Messer X. Saved from the streets by a local charity, Dunlow was able to pursue his academics while volunteering in his spare time. Upon graduating from University of Angeli, he became a prominent anti-Messer activist and civil rights advocate pushing for government reform.[2]
Crusader Industries
August founded Crusader Industries in 2799 on the principle that a business truly thrives when it gives back to society. Today you stand among these majestic clouds thanks to his incredible vision that a company can be both financially profitable and a force for good.[2]
"What good are profits if they don’t lead to progress?"
