"Iowa" Hendrix

Carver "Iowa" Hendrix
Carver "Iowa" Hendrix (Born 2088) Joined Reuben's Corsairs after he had been placed in a CDF prison camp after supposedly escaping from the compound in under a month, after having no alternative to an income.Originally, Hendrix was a part of a small gun-manufacturing group known as "American Eagle" in his early teens, the group originating in South-eastern Iowa. From this as an attempt to move their supply further east toward the coast, their small convoy of vehicles were besieged. Hendrix was one of the few survivors, as a USCPF patrol in the area responded to the gunshots. Hendrix had never encountered any military up in his home state very often before-hand. The USCPF, seeing Hendrix as possibly the son of one of the victims of the attack, decided to let him hitch a ride as their convoy moved along toward the coast. The Eagles' convoy had managed only to get as far east as Indianapolis, IN. Carver made it into Georgia itself after he had been caught in the nearby area selling what the CDF called illegal weaponry. The CDF troopers were intercepted by a pair of USCPF scouts, and Hendrix ran into the nearby town of Whitman Bay.

Hendrix, three years later, had managed to find where the scum of Atlanta kept themselves: The Den. During those three years he had managed to establish himself as a renowned gunsmith from his history of manufacturing them years before. His nickname of "Iowa" came from wearing his state patch. In the Eagles that his nickname was "Gator" as the group used animal-themed nicknames to call out each other.

Unfortunately, Hendrix's fortune at making black-market weaponry deadlier than normal was cut short. USCPF forces had stormed down into the Den and Hendrix had to abandon it. He moved his operation to CDF's borders, who finally caught him, as apparently CDF took their weapon laws more seriously than USCPF.

Hendrix had briefly heard of a group that had been terrorizing the North, known as Reuben's Corsairs. He saw them as possibly his only possible option to be successful in Atlanta. Hendrix used the thought of hope to escape the prison he was held in. He luckily had saved up some money by the time he had decided to join them, and bought himself an AR-15.

Beforehand, he had managed to save parts from various weapons he had gotten his hands on over the years. He customized the AR with a Norte stock, a small-zoom scope, and a small vertical ergonomic grip. The rig and clothes he bought later with the scraps he was making under his time in the Corsairs. Soon after he had been given his armband. He had also kept a 1911A1 on hand, a gift from his close friend from his time in the Eagles, Mike Heath. The engraved a carving of an "H" on the right side of the A1 as a way to remember his former friend.

Hendrix had managed to join a small gang in the town, making a small amount of money from fixing their Hykes and Sparo's on the side. Soon after, Hendrix had been approached by a Corsair Privateer known as "Rex". Through Rex, he was able to be admitted as one of the 'Thugs" in the Corsairs.

Soon after he had been given his armband and essentially 'officially' became a Corsair, a weapons regulation had been added by orders of the good Captain. Luckily Hendrix had managed to get his armband before-hand, and in turn, keep his rifle he loved using.

During the events of Deep Six, he had reached the rank of "Swashbuckler" and was now keeping decently close with his superiors and fellow mid-ranks, most notably "Yog", a Corsair who seems to have gone missing sometime after the July 4th of 2115, Rex, and another Privateer named Kirk Dakota. Hendrix has quick reaction times and usually does what's asked of him.

Recently, Hendrix was able to get his hands on the superior "AR" of the day, the Fusil. Rather than keeping the gun, he took it apart, kept the full-auto select-fire switch and the barrel, then sold everything else on teh black market, getting about 10 USD from the total. With that 10 USD, he bought himself more parts to further change the AR. He didn't add the select-fire switch in case a superior might take it away from him, but he added the Fusil barrel, which also was made for the same caliber, new polymer pistol grip and foreguard with tac-rails to keep his Angled grip in use, and a new collapsible stokc made more appropriate than his old roughly made Norte stock. Luckily, he didn't have much trouble putting the new stock on because he had welded an AR stock piece together to the Norte stock rather than welding the Norte stock directly onto the rifle.
