2nd generation Emancipee, he was the son of a now disposed exotic dancer and an unknown father. Karal had to find a means of living as well as support him and his mother and so gathered bits and scraps of objects to make into other objects. However, it was not without ridicule from the tribal Minmatar children he often played with in the city. As such he grew wary of anyone who aproached him and regarded them as people out to destroy him. He found he excelled in engineering and created his first autocannon when he was 12, It wasn't very advanced, but his community took notice as he was creating bigger and bigger objects. One day a visitor from the Gallente Federation came to buy a rocket launcher from his inventory and invited him to go with him into space. This visitor introduced him to the Pator Tech School where his benefactor left him a small ship, money, as well as contacts to help him progress in the void of space.
