Background/Bio

Like most on the Rim, Garrett grew up with a gun in his hand. Critters were always a problem, and when it wasn't critters it was bandits, and when it wasn't bandits it was Alliance.

He was happiest when he was hunting, had the patience for sitting around waiting and a knack for finding his targets. He wasn't good at much else, so when the recruiter came calling for the Browncoats he joined up. The army took those skills and honed them. Before long he was earning a reputation as a sniper, able to anticipate when targets were approaching and where, and take them out when they were barely in range.

And then it went wrong, as these things always do. What everyone assumed was good eyes and good instincts was actually latent reader talents and the war cracked them wide open. Garrett remembers a target that was barely visible, followed by terror and blinding pain. He woke up in the hospital.

He was still there when the war ended. In that first mad scramble after the surrender he was evacuated along with the rest of the walking wounded by pilot Paul Blakelock. In the aftermath he's taken to wandering, trying like many Browncoats to find a place in a 'verse that no longer seems to fit right.
