Aaron Abernathy has just started to make his name as a guidebook writer. He's written a popular guidebook called Aaron's Guide to the 'Verse. It is entertaining, the latest buzz in the Core Worlds...and about 90% of it is based on non-primary sources, rumors, and conjecture. However, it is selling well, and Aaron is determined to come out with a second edition that is much more accurate.

Background/Bio[edit]

Aaron Abernathy made his name as a guidebook writer. He is known for Aaron's Guide to the 'Verse. It is entertaining, a bestseller in the Core Worlds...and about 90% of it is based on non-primary sources, rumors, and conjecture. However, it is still quite popular, and Aaron is determined to come out with a second edition that is much more accurate.

Aaron has spent the time since the Unification War ended staying under the radar. An old incident involving a colony world, an attack from 'pirates', and a strong Alliance response has resulted in Aaron paying freighter captains under the table to hitch rides without worrying about customs and presenting identification. Despite the difficulties, the new edition of his guidebook is nearly complete, and he just needs a ship that can give him the peace and quiet he needs to finish the job.
