Background
Middle Class Struggles:
Sometimes a character comes from modest, but comfortable conditions prior to entering a life of adventure. This broad category could include anything from a skilled technician, minor political official, professional soldier, or any other lifestyle that typically involves hard work—but with the pay to make it worthwhile.
Motivation
Freedom:
The character desires the freedom to do what they want. This could be a passion to overcome one or more of their current Obligations or to see others freed from the shackles of bondage and servitude in all its forms.
Obligations
Favor:
The PC owes a big favor. Perhaps officials looked the other way when they smuggled in goods, or a friend got them out of prison. Regardless, the favors are stacking up, and soon they're going to be asked to pay them back or return the favor. This favor may be called in a little at a time, prolonging the Obligation.
Description
As a child, Mal was sold to Teemo by her parents, in an attempt to pay off their debts. Teemo saw potential in Mal, and trained her for combat (specialising in assassination) all her life to help Teemo silently eliminate his enemies. However, this life wasn't fit for Mal. She wanted to be free and explore the universe, so she has been sneakily planning her escape from Teemo.
