====Childhood====
Karl's childhood was nothing special. He lived with a large group of like minded people, that considered themselves an extended family, even if they weren't related by blood.  They were nomadic by nature, and more than a few had gifts that went beyond the norm, including him.  He was taught early on to hide his gifts and he was taught tricks to use them without it being obvious. Namely fortune telling.  A male fortune teller was a bit of an oddity, so he was able to make quite a bit of coin from it. That is up until the war came. Shadow would never be the same after that.

====The War====
Shadow was not the best place to be during the war. In fact it was the worst place to be. It was a bloody war zone and Karl learned quickly how to use a weapon. Even though he hadn't picked a side, he was still an enemy. To the Alliance for not joining them and to the Independents for not joining theirs.  He soon learned that his mental gifts weren't the only natural talent he had. He was a natural at shooting too, the gun was just an extension of him and he used it to protect his family from Alliance and Rebels both. The talent in his family being what it was, they knew ahead of time what was coming, and were able to flee Shadow before the Alliance made it into a planet sized piece of charcoal but that was just the beginning of Karl's troubles.

Being a refugee isn't easy so he took to doing whatever jobs came along to get by. As long as they were legal he would do them.  His luck ran out though and he was picked up by a Reader like himself. One that wasn't about to let him go and run the risk of telling everyone his secrets.  With no way to escape he patiently bided his time, waiting for an opportunity to present itself.  And it did in the form of Michi. As Michi rescued Carina, Karl found his chance and took it. He didn't stick with Michi for long. At the first chance he jumped ship after thanking the good captain and set is sights on other things.

With his unique set of skills and the universe recovering from a war, Karl found himself in high demand. And since he was a virtual ghost as far as government records went, and is still thanks to being picky about who he works for (he learned his lesson the first time)
