Immediate Family: Delilah Mense. She was Duke’s adopted mother
Distant Family: Carrie and Zachary Sandrine. Duke’s birth parents
Parenting: Strict and abusive. Everything had to follow the rules, if not there was a beating. The rules could be changed at any time without warning, so he had to be careful. Delilah wasn’t there most of the time, however, so Duke had to learn by watching others.
Upbringing: Pokémon are tools and should be used as such. Don’t give in to your emotion as it would make the organization look bad. Your allegiance is to Team Rocket before everything else.
Infancy: At birth, Duke was taken from his parents and proclaimed dead to the world. He would then be given to Delilah, an unwilling participant in the child program.
Childhood: In his childhood, Duke spent his years with four other children as they trained themselves and their Pokémon. At 11 he experienced his first death and a rebellion on one of the Orange Islands. He helped put it down and was rewarded with one of the Pokémon from the leader of the uprising.
Adolescence: At 13 Duke and his companions were sent over to the Hoenn. Their job was to discover any potential locations to build a Team Rocket base. Instead, Duke and his friend Cesar, infiltrated Team Aqua. There, they stole valuable technological information and destroyed anything that could have given them an Advantage over Team Magma. They left before the final battle as Team Rocket was struggling in Kanto. When they made it back they witnessed the decline of the organization.

After the dissolution he went back to Hoenn and managed to get an internship at Devon corp. He worked there for three years before getting a letter telling him Team Rocket was getting back together. He moved back to Kanto and managed to transfer into Silph co. He worked there for a full year before he learned that team Rocket broke apart again. This time he quit his job and went to travel. He needed to find something to strengthen him and create a powerful team.
Adulthood: After traveling Kanto and Johto he moved onto Sinnoh. There he discovered his hate for cold weather. He travelled there for a while, looking for strong people when he learned about Team Galactic. He dismissed this at first, but he kept an eye out for them. As they continued to grow he learned of their technological advancement and decided to join. He wasn’t going to let them do as they please, since it would damper his plans. He gathered many different blue-prints and copied them. He would later give hints to Interpol on the whereabouts of the Team Galactic. Despite his efforts, Cyrus managed to capture the three lake guardians, but was pulled into another world. He never came back and Duke left.

He decided to go to Unova, where he heard that there was a group that tried to have people let go of their Pokémon. It was silly notion. After two years of enjoying Unova, and finding no one who met his criteria he learned that Team Plasma came back and under new management. It was too good of an opportunity to pass up, so now he is looking to see if they’ll let him join.
Coming of Age: When he saw a man killed in front of him
Evolution: When he was younger, he was much more accepting of the status quo. Now he wants to run things. He isn’t satisfied to just stand by the sidelines and watch everyone else do what he wants.
