He was born and raised in the two-bit criminal society of Ouray Base, a remote bandit outpost near Ames Research Station, where his parents worked until they downsized the operation. Like a great deal of the ex-employees, they were not wealthy people, and decided to meek out a living on the fringe of society. Avery was conceived shortly before their arrival and was delivered on the asteroid, taking his mothers life in the process. His father never fully reconciled with him, but still raised him until he was old enough to work alongside him on smuggler crews. Their distance did not prohibit a bond to form over Avery's education on everything from maintenance to piloting, which he excelled at. The life of a freighter captain excited young Avery.
Honor exists even among some rogues, and Avery's father had run in to a considerable gambling debt among them.
