MegaC

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

With the stealth probe secured and safely delivered to Grito's and Vi'ivando's lab, Avery and the other members of his team were locked in a discussion with Commander Berk about what their next move should be.

In stark contrast to his attitude from before. Commander berk was far more open to listening to Avery and his team now.

While they might have been mercenaries, they were not the usual rowdy bunch that Berk was used to dealing with and possessed quick wits and useful insights.

After the results that their ingenuity had brought with the earlier incident, he had grown to respect them enough to accept their input.
