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

Iniquus had just received multiple unfavorable reports from the team he had sent out to recapture Grito.

Not only had they failed to bring in the young Baccigan, but it had recently been discovered that the base on Phregon III had been infiltrated and an unknown amount of data downloaded from its communication system.

Normally when he was frustrated by less than good news, Iniquus had a bad habit of hitting his desk and leaving dents in its durable metal frame.

This time, however, his fury had exploded past the point where he could control himself, and he picked his desk up over his head and threw it against the room's far wall with every ounce of strength his physically enhanced body was capable of.

A resounding slam echoed through the room as the desk impacted against the reinforced wall and crumpled like foil.

Computers, tablets, and data drives all went flying from the desk. Most ending up smashed beyond repair.
