BACKGROUND STORY

Caleb was born in Seattle in the year 2009, his childhood went as any childhood would in such a chaotic time, his parents, both wage workers, were upper- to central-midclass, he was treated as any infant would be until april 30, 2012, exactly 3 years and 2 months after his birth his body was twisted in the global goblinization. His parents were mortified, as were many other parents. They took him to doctors, the doctors said they could do nothing. They spent all their savings, the doctors said that there was, physically, nothing wrong with him. He spent his early years, being told by his parents that they'd get him fixed, while all the while his parents shut him in. He was schooled at home, his mother cut her hours and then finally quit her job. His fater spent ever increasing amounts of money searching for a 'cure'.

Caleb absobed a lot of TV... or what people int he 2010s called TV, a burgeoning techonology coming towards what could be called Trid, but not quite there. Tv with advanced options. He watched news reports on things he didn't fully understand, california free state rising, amer-indian revolts... things that piqued his curiosity... He also watched your average blood bath killer movies, he was a slasher film fan by age 7. One night while watching such a show his father walks in, looking upset he begins to 'forcibly communicate' with his mother and then slams the door, leaving her and that 'freak that has been costing him so much money and time' to fend for themselves, caleb was 12. By the end of thehis mother and he were living in 'poor' housing in an area he had never seen. The major change this brought about was that his mother couldn't actuall school him anymore and since she felt it was only right for a child to recieve an education she sent him to public school for the first time in his life. It was a poor school, a pitiful run down school full of metahumans, dwarves, orks, trolls, though very few elves. He loved it. He wasn't really a freak. His parents were just bigots.

He spent the next few years of his school days cutting class and getting into every day childish trouble. He silently resented his mother for keeping him from his childhood, everytime he did something wrong she told him it was just because he couldn't control himself. What she didn't understand was that he was in complete control of himself. If he broke out a teacher's car windows he did it intentionally, if he cut class, he did it intentionally.

She left too when he was 15... Though, it wasn't her fault, she was killed in a random act of violence by a rival gang. Oh, yeah, by that time Caleb was involved in gangs. Just little street punks trying to posture their way through a bit of violence and come out ahead. The kid that accidently killed Caleb's mom was an ork, she wasn't, he went to jail after a short trial... still Caleb, despite his differences with her, felt he had not fully had his revenge.

He became ever more violent, dropped out of school in 2026 to become a full time ganger. He was a bit more intelligent then the other fools in these situations so he survived a bit better than you'd expect an ork to. He commited his first large crime in 2027, robbing a liqour store at gun point, it went well. By 2029, the year of the crash, he was making quite a living in theft and muscle work. He celebrated his 20th birthday during the matrix crash having a hell of a time raiding buildings that had no security temporarily while the matrix and everything it controlled was down. He had a ball..

A year later was the first time he was ever heard of 'Urban Brawl'. A 'show' where they cordoned off city blocks, gave gangs a foot ball, and told them to score points. no rules, just points. He desided to try and field a team. the first 'game' they played wasn't even real, he just had his gang draw down on a rival gang in an alley way in Seattle. It was a rush, it was hellish, he enjoyed every second except the second he got shot. He lived, but only just. After that he was a bit more careful with things, learnign to use cover, rudimentary tactics, then more advanced tactics. He had a bit of a hard time adjusting to the fact that his gang members didn't seem to be intelligent enough to exploit things he saw. This upset him to a breaking point. he turned his gang in to a business. By 2034 his gang was training religiously. That year they'd enter their first real urban brawl. They won by a land slide.

He was a star 'captain' within 2 years. His gang fought in 2 battles a month and even in talks of aquiring a sort of sponsorship from arms and armor suppliers when shit hit the fan in 2039. Goddamned 'Governor Vic'. That night a full half of his gang and many people he had grown to befriend had been were cut down. He remebers it clearly to this day. after that 'Urban Brawl' had no meaning to him. If people brought it up he just kept walking. He has recently started to become active again. Retraining himself, getting back into fighting fit shape. But he hasn't told anyone why... Now it's 2041... where will his story take him?
