-[FULLNAME: Frank Vogel -[PLACE OF BIRTH: Planet New Berlin -[DATE OF BIRTH: 802.11.22 -[PREVIOUS OCCUPATION: Military Patrolman -[PREVIOUS REPUTATION: Rheinland Military
Born on Planet New Berlin to a poor family without much to their names, Frank spent the majority of his life training to enter the military and change the circumstances surrounding himself and his kin. His mother had died in childbirth and while his father did not make much money he did have many acquaintances and was owed a few favors, all of which were used to help train his son over the years.
Frank successfully entered the Rheinland Military in his early twenties and had been promoted quickly but eventually began stagnating in rank for a few years; living his days as a patrolman with a squad he became quite close with. A few months after his birthday during what seemed like an uneventful patrol, a group of suspicious ships, one freighter and four fighters with obviously spoofed identification codes, were spotted. As they declined to submit to a thorough inspection, the squad engaged them and successfully shot down two of the four escorts as well as disabling the freighter's engines.
The remaining two fighters fled into a nearby nebula and Frank, along half his squad members, followed in pursuit. Visual contact had been lost for a few minutes and long range communications were down in the area, but scanners showed the targets stopped a few Ks away. The chase eventually broke out into a clear pocket... Where the two suspects were found completed wrecked and a dozen or so ships with Marinenachrichtendienst identification were waiting. All hailing attempts were refused and both sides simply stared at each other until eventually a single text message was sent to all members: You shouldn't be here.
Before any reply could be sent, the MND fighters opened fire on Frank and his squad mates. In this massive rain of energy bolts, his friends' ships exploded violently and while his ship had taken a fair amount of damage, the explosions caused enough disturbance to give him an opportunity to flee. He flew straight towards the rest of his squad at the disabled freighter, but as soon as he left the nebula he could see a swarm of more fighters surrounding the wreck of his captain. Deciding to take his chances with the dense cloud of energy he'd just exited, he lands his ship inside an asteroid with a small hollow and turns off all systems except life support.
A week later he flies out and lands at Freeport 8, where he attempts to contact a friend in the military and is told the news of his father's murder, along with how the organization has internally disowned him to avoid cross-faction friction. He spends a number months, who even knows how many at this point, drinking himself to near death and breaking thug noses in bar fights before eventually snapping out of it while recalling his father's humble life and seeking to join the Unioners to enact both change and vengeance after an acquaintance he'd been drinking with spoke highly of them.
TLDR: MND burn his entire squad and family for flying into a classified location while chasing suspects during a patrol. He wants vengeance.
