John McMurphy - A fateful life story

John was born at the 28 November 754 A.S. on Planet Houston, Texas. He was studying until the age of 23 when he started his career as Liberty Rogue after his brother's death. Jason was his name and he was murdered by LPI officers due to a mistake. It didn’t take long for the angered John to acquire a nice reputation within the movement. He always had been a decent pilot unlike most other Rogues. One of the reasons for this might have been him starting to use Cardamine at the age of 25.
Just when he became 38 a Maltese family with a rather huge paramilitary asset offered to take him to Malta.
He accepted. With this his career on Malta started, first as mercenary for the family, mainly flying snub craft then later as Captain in a bigger fleet after receiving special leadership training. After finishing said training with great success he was granted command over one of the first Tridente-class Gunships the family had. As it was to be expected this made the Maltese Navy to keep an eye on John.

Later when he was around 47 he was offered to join the Maltese Navy as the Commander of an RM-2A "Storta" Destroyer. He accepted this offer, how could he have denied this? But it was truly a decision which changed his life. Gathering more and more experience on the battlefields, searching for more and more enemies.. all this lead to him finding himself in an unknown system not far from Alpha. Suddenly his warship was surrounded by strange organisms, the Nomads! After this first contact, many more followed, leading to John starting to dislike and eventually even hate them. He held a grudge towards them and their continuously growing influence on Malta for centuries; long before he founded the Maltese Exiles in the year 818 A.S. His radical Anti-Nomad movement remained hidden from public until 821 A.S. when John was already Captain of a Sarissa-class Battleship, manned by a loyal crew which shared his grudge.
But unfortunately his grudge lead to a wrong decision which made them suffer heavy losses in 823 A.S. resulting in the disbandment of the movement after he went missing. He went missing in a completly unknown system in the Omicron sector and the few survivors who managed to slip back through the unstable jumphole they used to get into said system were sure about his death, but barely two months ago he appeared at Malta. Apparently without any injuries but nobody knows how he survived. He himself never dared to lose a single word about these two months, fearing how people could react if they found out that everything he hated now became his life.

Right now he flies with the National Council of Malta as agent but his true goals are hidden in the shadows, far away from the rest of humanity..
