Bio:
Born to a Bretonian mother and Libertonian father in Leeds. His parents were miners working on Stokes. It was there where Kay spent his childhood and learned to fly a spaceship, although a small freighter fit for mining purposes and only occasionaly did he transport goods from Stokes to planet Leeds and back. Due to the bad working conditions and low pay the family decided to leave Bretonia and join the IMG in their efforts of mining the most distant, dangerous and profitable fields. Kay liked being "away from civilization", so he made his acquaintance to many Zoners, although he was quite attached to his family, and his father would never abandon his way of life in favour of an uncertain future with the Zoners. So, Kay spent a lot if time in the combat simulators, learning to fly "Real combat ships", as he would often call them. One day an opportunity for him arose - the IMG announced that they were recruiting fresh pilots for fighter escorts. The approved candidates would get the chance to take a loan from the Guild to buy their own figher of choice. In return, they would have to serve as fighter escorts for the IMG freighters for 3 years. Kay took the opportunity, bought a Raven's Talon and proved himself as one of the most promising new recruits in the IMG fighter wing.
One year before his contract of service was over, he was assigned to escort a freighter with a shipment of Beryllium, captained by his father. Donnel's mother was also aboard the ship, serving as an engineer. In Omega 7, the ship was attacked by a raiding party of Red Hessian pirates. Although a skilled pilot himself, Donnel couldn't fend off the four attackers and the ace Outcast fighter pilot that soon appeared. The freighter was destroyed despite his best effort to provide cover. Donnel himself managed to destroy two of the attacking ships, then fled to Freistadt base, where the pirates couldn't chase him. The local IMG command was unwilling to pursue the remaning aggressors, and refused to announce bounties on their heads. Bent on vengeance for his parents' deaths, Donnel took a loan from an independent trader who was passing by Freistadt, paid off his debt to IMG and left the Guild. After another year of serving as a freelance escort, he decided to join the Hessians' and Outcasts' most feared enemies - the Corsairs. Having found his way to Omicron Gamma and defeated the pilots that engaged him there, he was allowed to join the Corsairs and work for their cause, as well as his own.
