Background: Percy was born on 2488-02-19 in Lu'Weng, Sihnon, White sun, and when he was 11 his family moved to Clawthorn, Paquin, Heinlein, Red sun, where he was apprenticed to his father as a printer.
Just before the war, at the age of 18, he was bound-by-law for printing and distributing seditious pamphlets, and sentenced to get the tattoo on his face and 6 years at Joshuatown jail, which became a POW camp during the war. Despite not being a Browncoat, nor agreeing with the Browncoat "Live free or kill" philosophy, he made several friends there.
After the postbellum amnesty of 2511, Percy worked with Browncoat friends on merchant ships, learning to pilot all sorts of ships.
After the revelation of the Miranda deaths in 2518, he bought a ship using money from a rich Core merchant, Elmira Douglas. She lent it via a shell corporation, after he found her Seht project which is secretly building 2 generation ships, one of which is being developed at Andersonville, Salisbury, Kalidasa (where he delivers goods to Seht contact, and restaurant owner, Suinabird Singh); with integration happening at an unknown location.
When not helping Seht, he's mostly been doing guild trade shipping, and some salvage jobs to pay off the debt and to make it seem normal to ship things to Andersonville. Despite having done some unpalatable things in order to keep flying, Percy has always refused to transport slaves or animals.
On 2521-07-07 his crew tried to rescue attacked terraformers on the moon Covenant (Jubilee, Red sun).
