You grew up in a mechanized caravan, always moving between the cities of
the green zones and the great fortresses of the wastes. Your clan trades
in all kinds of goods, from food to fuel to mecha parts, even sometimes
making deals with offworlders.
  
Caravan life is interesting and exciting, but also limiting. There's no
room here for independence. There's not a lot of oppurtunity for adventure
or personal glory. You have always longed to head off on your own, to make
your own place in the world.
  
The best place to do that would of course be the Federated Territories.
This alliance of city-states is located in the largest green zone on the
planet, and as such is the richest nation in the world. There's plenty of
oppurtunity here no matter what your specialty is.
  
At your caravan's most recent trading stop, you decided it was time to say
goodbye. With little more than the clothes on your back you bid farewell to
your clan-mates. The Federated Territories will be your home now.
