McOboe was once a prominent engineer, tasked with managing the refinery facility on board a Caldari Provisions station. The work was rewarding, and the pay was excellent. His life with his wife and two children was ideal. However, this station was poorly defended, and an easy target by a Gurista assault. McOboe survived, minus his legs an an arm. His wife and children were less fortunate. In honor of his service, and in reparations for the loss of his limbs and family, Caldari Provisions offered the capsuleer conversion to McOboe at a discount. Having nothing left in his life, McOboe spent his entire savings and insurance payouts to pay for the service. Now, he wanders the stars as an immortal, slaying Guristas and other pirates when able, and occasionally pursuing his past-life's engineering endeavors.
