Early Life
Childhood
John Bronston was born and raised on the planet Asaazarkhu with his 3 Githiaski brothers, Tvilti, Uvalnus and Simon Bronston. John is the second youngest sibling, only followed by Tvilti. His Mother, Wzandyi Bronston is Githiaski and a Force Commander in the Githiaski section of the Imperial Marines. She was cold and didn't care much for her children, except her first born, Simon, who she favours above the others. Due to her occupation she doesn't spend a lot of time at home so John was primarily raised by his human Father, John Bronston Sr, who tends to go by the ailias, 'Pork Chop'. Pork Chop Brontson was a compassionate and highly intelligent man who devoted his spare time to his kids, raising them while his wife was away on military tours for 6 months to a year at a time.
John Bronston Jr was given the alias 'Sausage' at the age of 3 by Pork Chop who wanted to carry on the odd tradition of naming their son's after cuts or products of meat. The origin of this naming convention comes from ancient Terran tradition of growing local animals for execution and consumption. The Bronston family owned a chain of these shops and have been following this tradition for thousands of years.
John was homeschooled by his father while his siblings went to a Githiaski military boarding school in a nearby city. John spent a lot of time with his father and they often went on day trips to go fishing.
Wzandyi Bronston's Death and Assault Ship Theft
At the age of 14, John's family received the news that his mother was killed in action while fighting Psionics. Due to the nature of the situation, they weren't told any further details. John Sr became very distant and the lack of income forced Sausage and his siblings into a life of petty crimes.
After 5 years of just about scraping by and being in and out of juvenile detention for petty theft, John and his siblings thought it would be a good idea to steal a military Assault Shuttle from an imperial base near by with the intention of selling it on the black market. John calls dibs on pilot, Uvalnus calls co-pilot with Tvilti and Simon on the guns. Taken from John's biography "The Length of the Sausage" - "We set out in the middle of a winters night and climbed a damaged area of fence around the perimeter of the airbase. About a kilometere from the point we entered the base, we saw a line of Assault Shuttles parked up on the aviation apron and stealthily made our way over (well as stealthily as 3 squids can) and broke our way into the Shuttle on the end of the line. At this point, we heard a shout from behind and saw a Human rifleman running towards us from a couple of hundred meters away. I, although having no previous experience on aircraft, quickly started it up and began to lift off the ground. The military presence around us had massively increased and we start getting shot from all sides by light arms fire. Simon and Tvilti were struggling with the ships guns and quickly give up to take cover. 50ft off the ground, I began to transition into horizontal flight before a noise sounding like a large *crack* was heard and Uvalnus's head exploded. I wasn't even able to process what happened before I noticed blood pouring down the left side of my face and neck. The bullet that killed my brother had deeply scarred the side of my head and I blacked out. I was never able to grow hair on that side again."
The aftermath of the failed theft suprisingly didn't result in prison time for John. After he regained consciousness from a year long coma, he was met by the Marshal-Commondant of from the Imperial Marines who realised the potential of John's piloting skills and in honour of Wzandyi, who the Marshal-Commondant knew well, offered John the chance to fly for the military. John accepted the offer, but had sustained minor brain damage in the ship theft which caused him to go a bit loopy and refer to himself in the 3rd person, as well as making his voice sound very shrill. Tvilti and Simon Bronston were in a coma for about 3 months following the crash of the Assualt Ship and were then sentenced to 7 years in prison for breaking into a military base and attempting to steal a craft.
For the next 2 years, John worked as the Marshal-Commondant's secratery before becoming old enough to join the Scouts at 22.
Military Employment
The Imperial Scout Service
At 22 years old, John joined the scouts and passed the flying exams with flying colours. His employment was fairly straight forward until, 3 years in, he witnessed a group of lizards explode from exposure to space. John had a vivid flashback to Uvalnus's death and went into shock, nearly dying. He was discharged on medical grounds but was quickly offered a role in the Navy as a pilot.
