History:
Owen grew up with his mother, his father in prison for theft. His mother was an artist that seemed to sell very few paintings but could pay for him to go to a private school where he failed at art but excelled in Science and had soon learnt the Stars so well he could have made his way out of the wilderness while drunk. He lived a very sheltered and naive life until the age of 16, when his mother was shot by a bandit that had broken into their cottage on the outskirts of town.. The local marines had an outpost on the island and were at war with the bandits that were pushing in from the hills at the time. As many senior marines were deployed into the fray to deal with problem-conscripts were needed for chores in the barracks. Owen was a likely candidate as he needed no consent from a guardian. He was commissioned with preforming chores in the start, but was later rewarded with the duty of assisting the shipwright, who taught him how to put hammer to nail and later-how to swing a sword. Owen passed on to being the unofficial shipwright after his previous master was sent to join the war. When he had resided as shipwright for a year and had been replaced by another more accomplished shipwright-his real talent was recognised. Swordsmanship was seen to be his area of expertise but he had gained recommendations in shipwrightery. He was ordered to be a shipwright for the marines and passed the recruitment tests to pass into the marines and was granted the rank of Seaman Recruit. Owen Brody awaited his impending transferal to a marine crew.
Personality:
His loyalty lies wholeheartedly with the marines but he despises politics and has so created a hatred for the World Government. He has a good sense of humor and loves to flirt. He has an intense interest in navigating and has been noted to be better than some twice his rank. He seems to love ships and all about them as well. He loves food and to be entertained. His fear of boredom is almost a phobias and he likes to be doing something at all times.
