Hank McCoy Jr. was born on Terra Nova III, a rugged colony on the outskirts of human space, where survival often depends on resourcefulness and grit. The son of a seasoned space miner and a mechanic, Hank grew up with grease on his hands and the hum of mining equipment in his ears. As a child, he was fascinated by the deep space scrap yards and asteroid fields that dotted the galaxy, constantly tinkering with old tools and machinery to build small ships and devices.

At the age of 18, Hank left home to seek his fortune among the stars, joining a mining outfit that specialized in asteroid belts rich with valuable minerals. It was there he earned the nickname "The Asteroid Wrangler" after single-handedly saving a mining crew stranded on a volatile asteroid by piloting a damaged mining rig through an intense ion storm. His bravery and quick thinking earned him respect in the mining community, but Hank was never one to stay put for long. He eventually struck out on his own, operating as an independent miner and salvage expert.

Now, at 34, Hank is a well-known figure in the sector, his name spoken with a mix of admiration and caution. While his skill with mining lasers, drills, and explosive charges is unmatched, it’s his knack for navigating the treacherous politics of salvage rights and his ability to repair almost any piece of machinery that makes him invaluable. Whether he’s hunting down rare resources on a forgotten moon or salvaging derelict ships from abandoned stations, Hank operates on his own terms, guided by a strict code of honor—though some would say his sense of morality can be as unpredictable as the asteroid fields he navigation **Skills and Expertise:
- Mining & Resource Extraction: Expert in extracting precious metals, rare minerals, and valuable gasses from asteroids, moons, and derelict ships.
-Salvage Operations: Proficient in recovering damaged or abandoned spacecraft and machinery, often re-purposing them for his own use or selling parts to the highest bidder.
- Engineering & Repairs:** Skilled mechanic with a deep understanding of spacecraft systems, able to repair and modify ships under extreme conditions.
