Struggling to gain his footing like most new pilots, Brackish "Brack" Waters spent a majority of his early days in college doing all the wrong things. Booster smuggling, small scale contract scamming and shots off the bow of local Concord landed him in a bad place. He suddenly found himself forced to work for a fat old Gallente slob repairing and maintaining his Retreiver on long flights to the rim of .5 space.

Fate, luck, or bad flying turned the future in his favor when a group of Guristas decided to eliminate his employer with a hull breach that turned a strip miner into a something more elegant. After a brief crash course in piloting the barge, he promtly flew the ship back to his home region in Caldari space. He left one fnal parting blow to the Gallente federation by successfully courting his wife Nuit Waters from the hands of a local official.
