Name: Katherine "Percy" Percival
Birth Colony: Lunar Base
Background:
Percy was born in poverty on the Lunar Base and abandoned by her mother at a very young age. Although named after her mother, Percy soon came to resent the name and became known by her nickname instead. With her mother out of the picture, Percy's father was forced to raise her alone. As a result of this, she learned a great many things from him. Her father was a very skilled technician and Percy adopted these skills.
Her interests typically strayed into ship mechanics, and she spent a lot of her childhood hanging around the scrapyards on Lunar Base, observing the workers and the scrappers on their metal raids. It wasn't long before she was assembling her own robots and fusion bikes, quickly graduating onto bigger and more elaborate projects. Around this time her father got a position building space-ships on Ceres and Percy stayed on at the Lunar Base, working the scrapyards.
Eventually she got a position repairing broken down ships on Ganymede. As well as working on the docked ships she would fly around in space looking for remnants of other damaged vessels. It was during one of these runs that she picked up a distress call from a familiar vessel. Dalia. The name make her heart sink, as she knew her father was currently serving as a technician on-board. Docking at Lunar Base, she enlisted for the rescue operation. She couldn't give up hope that he was still out there. |
