Great start! I like the fact that you've taken the time to talk about the character's background - so many authors don't feel the need to do so anymore and it shits me, i tell you! Definitely looking forward to more of this..
(btw, have you ever seen A7X live? They played in my local city on saturday and i couldn't go {i'm epileptic and the pyros set me off :( } and I was wondering what it would be like to see them perform live.. call me a masochist..)
