Sylum: Head of Security
Born Horatio Caine in 1955 AD, New York – USA, eldest son of Henry and Elizabeth Caine.
His younger brother Raymond Caine was born eight years later.
Horatio’s homelife was far from pleasant, as his father was violently abusive to both him and his mother.
While Horatio was serving as a young Detective for the NYPD, Henry beat Elizabeth to death. Horatio shot him when he found his father standing over his mother’s body. He then transferred from New York to Miami, taking a position with the bomb squad.
He’s most famous for defusing the bomb at the Birdcage on New Years Eve 1999.
Due to personal reasons he transferred to the Bomb Squad. A few years later he was promoted and requested to take over the Crime Lab Day Shift when Megan Donner took an extended leave of absence. When she returned there was some conflict between the two, Megan feeling as if Horatio had taken her team. When she realized that the team was loyal to Caine, she left Miami.
Horatio always made sure those who could not speak were spoken for. He had become, in many aspects, Miami’s Guardian Angel.
Though he protected and watched over all of his team, Timothy Speedle had caught his eye. He always made sure to watch over him at a crime scene, realizing the CSI had a tendency to get lost in the science, and not see potential threats.
When Speed was shot and killed, Horatio felt as if someone had ripped a part of his soul out of his body. When he finally made his way down to the Morgue he stood in the doorway in shock. Speed was standing talking to Alexx Woods.
Speed sat them down and told them a story of Vampires, and of his life in Ireland. Horatio knew his soul belonged to Speed, he just wasn’t sure how to handle this whole new world he was exposed to.
Speed took his time and courted Horatio for six months. It wasn’t until Warrick Brown came to Miami to talk to Horatio that he learned that Speed was hurting due to the incomplete Bond.
Horatio put away his fears and gave himself to his Mate.
