Personal History | back cover story ::: Moo was raised in an orphanage in a frontier world. The orphanage was run by the Retired mayor and caretaker of the Hydroponics plantation for the south Central plains. The Town only had about 200 permanent residents, Including the sheriff and his posse. The town was gifted with anywhere between 1500 and 4000 prisoners who did the slave labor to harvest the crops. The high point was the fall harvest, the spring harvest tended to only barley and rye. Standard slave colors kept the prisoners in line. Moe had a knack for all things mechanical and electrical and was taken in by a maintenance engineer at the Hydroponics maintenance lab. Was drafted into the alliance, after results of his basic school test revealed high technical abilities. Two years later after spending time as a medic/pilot, he had to service his own assault ship, due to the lack of skilled grease monkey’s in the back water. He was voluntold to go on a high risk classified mission. It started bad and ended up worse, his assault craft was shot down almost immediately and after he crash landed with only three fatalities, they started the mission. Two hours later, he was hit, and knocked unconscious. His body was stripped of everything. His uniform, weapons, ID tags and everything. His platoon was wiped out, he was found by a local and sent to a local infirmary. The records indicated that he was injured while driving a truck hauling arms and ammo and other contraband to sell to the rebels. He woke up in the infirmary recovery room in restraints and after a really bad day in recovery, Inwich his claim of him having his Ident-a-card was lost or stolen. He was discharged and transferred. Due to a record’s mistake, he was sent to a far out penal colony instead of an alliance penal colony on Persephone. He had no proof of who he was, and everyone claims that they're innocent. His claims fell on deaf ears and after 60 days of bad treatment, he escaped. Well it was not his fault that they left the keys in the skimmer, with him on a work detail. He managed to scrap the skimmer and make a mule out of it, moving to the dark side and living as a prospector, he spent 3 months there, until he caught a ride on a tramp freighter hauling less than honest gods out. |
