Detailed Background, One Paragraph or So (the more we can learn about you, the better): I was born on Ames Research Station, my parents both being scientists who worked in the laboratories there. I grew up on the station, with my parents hope that I would follow in their footsteps, learning the craft of molecular biology. By the time I was a teenager, I grew tired of the constant study and homework, desiring a more exciting life. I was befriended by a Freelancer who taught me about his life and his ship whenever he was visiting the station, while travelling through to Liberty space from Kusari. My parents were moving position to different roles on Atka Research Station in Sigma 17. As we were travelling there, we stopped on Planet Honshu en route. From there I ran away, finding my way by begging passage and hiding on transports until I made my way to Freeport 8, where I met up with my Freelancing friend from old.
After spending a number of years learning the ways of being a Freelancer, I eventually earned enough credits to purchase my own ship and venture out on my own. I worked my way around various contracts, starting with convoy escorts and recon missions, before moving up the food chain to more dangerous missions. After spending considerable time involved in such ventures, I grew bored, feeling purposeless and wandering aimlessly, taking random jobs for the credits.
I found my way back to Freeport 8, more for a trip of nostalgia, but also harboring the hope that I would find a new purpose in that place. To my good fortune, I met some pilots there from the Core paramilitary wings, who extolled the benefits and purpose of being part of an organization such as yourselves. I was convinced that joining the Core was the direction I needed, fitting with my own ideals.
