Avery Asteria was far from having anyone's dream job. Family circumstances had him drop out of school and flying around the expanse of space looking for treasure among the discarded trash in an old ship his father had been restoring. It was far from glamorous work, but it was all he could do to earn the money he needed. 

He was not the only one looking for fortune among the stars, though. One day a score that looked too good to be true led to a run in with a band of pirates. With some quick wits and a bit of luck, Avery managed to escape the worst, but he ended up missing out on collecting the valuable salvage he had his sights on.

Having lost a large chunk of his gear in his flight from the pirates, Avery seemed to be truly at the end of his rope. However, a twist of fate led him to discovering an experimental vessel that had been lost to the far reaches of space.

With this new ship in his possession, his prospects were looking up. It had everything and more than what any spacefarer could want. And Avery was going to use it to become the leader of the greatest band of mercenaries in the galaxy.

Path to Becoming the Greatest Space Mercenary

Once Avery had gotten Kasandra to agree to his generosity, the two of them began discussing the type of ship she wanted with the two Storren Corp. executives.

With Ardesen present, being the Chief of Technology, their discussion was immensely fruitful. He knew the most about his company's capabilities and the materials that they could get ahold of.

Of course, there were still limits. After a fierce negation with Dorris, they had agreed on a thirteen million Krenin credit limit to purchase the custom vessel for Kasandra. Anything more would come out of Avery's pocket.

Nevertheless, there was a certain material that he currently had in abundance that he thought might be useful in the ship's construction.

Avery offered up the energy lifeform cores currently sitting in his cargo hold to be used in the construction of a high-capacity generator, along with other necessary electronic components.
