----- <Biography> -----
I was born to a poor family on Planet Hamburg. My parents worked for Republican Shipping. For a while it was stable, but during the Nomad War they were laid off. We scrimped and scraped by any way we could, until my father got a job on Alster Shipyard. Life was tough, but eventually I followed in his footsteps, unloading cargo from supply ships or stripping broken vessels for salvage. Unfortunately my parents passed on. I bet the working condition on-station certainly didn't help. I kept bringing this to the attention of foremen and the like, but I was told to get back to work. I could feel my own body groan and ache with each passing week. After a few more months, I was let go. "Not enough work Herr Klinge"... "We'd like to thank you for your efforts Mannfred". Total crap.
It was this that got me interested in the Unioner movement. I read up on them as much as I could manage. Being an illegal group made it hard to come by information. Luckily a few old colleages bumped into me while I was in a bar back on Hamburg. They slipped me a note and left soon after. It said to come by here, that my feelings were shared by others.
