Background:
Jack Jones was a famous CAF fleet officer and a hero in times past.
He used to be a fighter pilot and with just a squadron of twelve fighters,
he was able to stop four Berserker class patrol ships from destroying six
transports that were moving civilians from a war zone. Unfortunately, he
did not know when to keep his mouth shut. Like most people from the CAF,
he knew that they were not pirates like claimed, and were actually ships
of the Trans-Galactic Empire. He said this loudly whenever he had the opportunity.
He said it to his juniors, to his senior officers, to politicians, and
to even the media. While likely true, the powers in control of the Consortium
got tired of it and he got dismissed from service.
This sudden event sent his whole like into a downward spiral and he
climbed into a bottle and tried to forget everything in that bottle. He
had a limited pension and that payed for his alcohol. He might have dies
drunk one day if it was not for the fact the fact that events again grabbed
him. This time of a more personal nature. He had gotten a lady pregnant
one day and soon after having the child, a gorgeous baby girl, the women
got killed in an alley. Jack was always a very good man and could not just
abandon the girl. He pulled himself out of the bottle and never has taken
a drink.
His tiny pension would never be enough to support his daughter in any
decency so he when back to the only job he knew. He served in many positions
on many different ships, never too proud to take a job and very protective
of his daughter. He worked on freighters, liners, tugs, and even trash
ships. His daughter got older and he found that she loved space as well.
Recently, he realized that he wanted more, a shelter for himself when he
got old and so his daughter has to not work so hard. He and his daughter
joined a small and new company, sinking most of their savings into the
company.
