BACKGROUND:
Flip grew up in a relatively poor family. Sure, his parents worked hard, and they were able to get by, but it wasn’t an ideal life. There were more than a few nights when things went wrong and young Flip went to bed hungry. During those younger years, he looked up to those who were living the high life, and wanted that life for his own. He always loved rags to riches stories, those down on their luck who ended up on top of the world.
There was one in particular that got his interest. A young robot built up and army and practically took over the world. Sure, he wasn’t president, but effectively ruled from the shadows. And then, when the president went missing, the young robot struck again, effectively taking the position by force. Imagine it, the guy practically conquered the planet twice! And got away with it! That story taught young Flip one thing. If you want power, you’ve gotta steal it! Playing fair will only result in failure.
He started out small. Pickpocketing, street hustling, rather minor stuff. And it worked for a period. Even at a young age he had a showmanship-style flair which allowed him to get away with his misdemeanors. Of course, a couple of run ins with the authorities and rival crooks taught him that brains and charm weren’t enough. You needed muscle to back it up. He had heard stories of people utilizing energy in combat, but of course, nobody was willing to teach young Flip how to use such abilities. So, who needs ki? Flip began training himself, creative a street fighting style drawing bits and pieces from other styles. He even managed to convert a cane he found into a gun that could rival most ki based attacks in power. With his new combat skills, Flip began to work his way up in the criminal underworld, no longer settling for simple street hustling.
With his strength, wit and charm, Flip managed to assemble a small gang, and that’s when they took their criminal activities up a notch. Robbery, extortion, racketeering, smuggling, Flip indulged in it all. As his illegal profits rolled in, Flip began living the high life. Booze, money, gambling, it was all starting to come together.
But, Flip wasn’t going to settle for that just yet. After all, why remain a small, yet prominent figure in the underworld, when there’s so much more out there? He had heard stories of the World Trade Fleet, space pirates who conquered worlds and sold them off for a profit. Who’s to say a human such as himself couldn’t enjoy that life as well?
