Charactar History -

Sheridan's homeworld is unknown even to him. At a very young age, he was taken from the place where he was being raised by a military organization and brought to a facility located on one of the Rim Worlds. There he was trained from his early age until his late teens as a warrior,
taught to be cold, hard, and ruthless. After his training was complete, as he and his unit were
being shipped offworld to another military base, his transport was shot down by pirates and crashlanded on the uninhabited planet of Kintawa. It was a forest-planet, and Sheridan and a few other members of his unit who survived the crash had to hunt and forage for food to stay alive long enough to completely rebuild and reprogram their transport, as it was their only way
offworld. It took them a year to do this, in which time Sheridan was forced to become a master hunter and scout to survive. After they had repaired the transport enough to make it spaceworthy, they lifted off and headed to the nearest spaceport, where they parted ways and began to make lives for themselves.

Sheridan, having been trained in hand-to-hand combat, infantry tactics, weapons operations, demolitions, and minimal starfighter operation, chose to become a freelance bounty hunter/assassin and immediatly set to work making a name for himself. After he had done enough small-time work to buy himself passage offplanet, he traveled to the infamous Dajo Outpost, well-known as a place where almost anyone, whatever profession or speciality, could make a living. He decided to make Dajo his home, and became a permanent resident,
although he was away most of the time hunting bounties and escorting wealthy business men.

After a few years at the bounty hunter trade, he became somewhat well-known around the station and surrounding sectors. Somewhere along the line, during one of his bounties,
he had a dispute with another semi-renoun bounty hunter, Triton Kell, who was one of the
survivors of Sheridan's original transport crash. They were rivals during his training,
and that rivalry became outright violence now. The met at various times in Sheridan's career and always ended their streneous battles with draws. During one of their last duels, Sheridan
destroyed Triton's ship and all his possessions. This strengthened Triton's hatred and he
knew he would have his revenge some day.

It was about this time when he met Sina Latos, a small-time smuggler who also had residence on the station. They saw each other often, as they lived by each other, and sometimes collaborated on missions to capture Sheridan’s bountys. They began to grow quite close and became involved with each other, although each knew their line of work was danger-filled and perilous. She was the one thing that made sence to Sheridan, the one thing that made his life worth living. She had gotten Sheridan to open himself up after years of being taught to be a thoughtless killer. Soon after, Sina learned of a large underground organization auctioning off parts of a contract to haul goods from one planet to another. She jumped at the oppurtunity, and during the meeting, which had been betrayed to Triton Kell by a mole, Triton infiltrated the building and in the gunfight that ensued, killed all
the bodyguards, dealers, and smugglers that were at the meeting - including Sina.

Triton finally had his revenge.

A few weeks later, as Sheridan returned from a hunt, he gained knowledge of this, and as he realized the one person he cared for was gone, he became reclusive and prone to fits of
rage. During this time, he was given an offer to hunt a bounty on the Outer Rim. He took it gladly, relieved to have something to focus his anger on. It would turn out to be one of the most life changing decisions he would ever make.

As he was in his ship, the Black Talon, calculating where his hunt could have jumped from his current position, a large alien cruiser of unknown type emerged from a fabricated wormhole. It grabbed his ship with a tractor beamed and hauled the smaller ship into its docking bay. When Sheridan emerged to fight off the aliens in the ship, he was suddenly paralyzed and could not move, could barely think. He was taken to their prisoner holding area, and was left there for 3 days in complete darkness with no food and only dirty pipe water. Then the torture started. They would come into his cell and take him to a holding area with many other humanoids who were strapped into machines, some screaming. They would strap him in as well, and then he would enter a world of pain. The machine was virtual reality AI, and would search his brain and find out what most scared, hurt, or angered him. Then it would portray events in his mind, over and over and over again. On that ship, he died thousands of deaths, saw thousands of friends die over and over again, endured thousands of torture sessions, all in his mind.

The aliens were testing him, and they would give him drugs to slow his metabolism and make him stronger. Then one day the computer found something in his brain he had been hiding - Sina's memory. It incoporated that into Sheridan's mind torture, and it set him over the edge. The pain, the hurt, the anger, and drugs all put together made him snap, and he gained almost super human strength as he broke his bonds and lunged at the alien scientists. He not only killed them, but all the guards who had come to help them as well. Such was his focused hate and anger that he gained such a strength as to overpower aliens twice his size and strength. He knew he must escape, and he headed towards the nearest turbolift - when something he saw stopped him. One of his friends from his training was there, inside one of the machines, his body perspiring and his face twisted in agony. Sheridan, still pumped up with drugs and adrenalin, freed him and carried him to the nearest shuttle bay. He found the Black Talon, and its security systems automatically recognized his unique body signature and opened its loading doors. Sheridan and his friend, who went by Lance, boarded the ship and left the bay in a flurry, and before the cruiser had time to tractor them in, jumped blindly to hyperspace.

Hours later, Sheridan arrived back at Dajo Outpost. His body was bruised and burned, and he was still disoriented from the drugs. He was taken to the Outpost's medbay and stayed there for a week, under sedation, until he was healthy enough to return to his quartars.

Now, he has returned to bounty hunter work, and is carrying out missions better than he ever has before - not only is his mind more violence-oriented, but the drugs gave him greater strength and a slower metabolism, which will allow him to live much longer than a normal human. He has also learned to somewhat control his anger, and focus it on enemies. When fighting, he can sometimes focus his rage and hatred and in turn assume greater physical strength and stamina. He is somewhat rough, and sometimes rude without knowing it - he has been away from humans so long that he is unaccostomed to their feelings. ______________________________________________________________________________________
