If Harl tells you a joke, you can bet you've been accepted.
Underlying Personality:	Harl is a brooding soul. Thoughts of the war and his family still haunt his dreams. He keeps this part of him close to the vest not letting many people, if any... know his darkest fears.
Known History:	Born 2473 on Londinum, Harlequin Moses Sherbourne is the youngest of three brothers though the biggest of the three. The Sherbourne family line could be traced back to the first settlers headed out from Old Earth, rich and well connected to those in powerful places. All the Sherbourne sons were groomed for high profile leadership positions in the Central Core. The best education, the best associations and the best affiliations. The youngest brother had other ideas and resisted the plan his family, namely his father, had set out and planned before him. At the age of twenty one Harlequin secretly joined the Alliance Military. Before his father could do anything his youngest was shipped off world to boot camp. The youthful Sherbourne excelled at every turn and thus the beginning of an impressive military career was born. In the meantime back home his family had broken off all ties and communication with him. When the Unification War began in 2506 Harl had reached the rank of Master Sergeant. He was a hard-bitten leader and his men loved him as he took them around the 'Verse from battlefront to battlefront. Sergeant Sherbourne watched a good many of his men and colleagues die in the gruesome fighting and in turn his resolve began to wane. At long last victory did come for the Alliance in 2511, but at what some would call a bitter price. The Border and Rim worlds were in turmoil and now it was time to go about winning the peace. The now, Sergeant Major Sherbourne, continued his duties as he had sworn to do but he was slowly closing in on his breaking point. In 2518, The Miranda Broadcast totally broke him as he was swept up in The Universe Battle as it had come to be known. The ship he was on took heavy damage and made a hasty retreat only to crash land on Lilac.
Other History:	Marooned on Lilac, a small crop moon plagued with heat and a serious lack of water. The Alliance quickly moved to cover up the battle and refute the Miranda Broadcast and in so doing did not dispatch any search and rescue parties. Sherbourne struggled to keep his men alive but it proved an ineffective task. When it dawned on them no one was coming, Harl led the remaining party to find a town that would have water, food and transportation off world. To add insult to injury, along their sun baked death march they ran across bands of surviving Reavers. The first few encounters caught them off guard not knowing what they were dealing with. Coming across a ship set down in the middle of a desert looked like an oasis to the parched troopers, thinking they were saved only to be set upon by Reavers. Some of the encounters were horrific and by the time they reached the town of Winston weeks later there were only nine of them left out of sixty three.

Recent History:	Harl Moses has been seen bouncing around the Border Worlds trying to steer clear of any Alliance patrols. After Lilac he procured some ranch hand work on Triumph. After a time he found the world a bit behind the times for his taste and found some Gunhand work on a mid-bulk transport. It was while working for Captain Martinez that he had his first run in with the Feds since Lilac. While resting up in a local watering hole after a delivery on Greenleaf, his face was picked up over government surveillance cameras. The once thought dead Sergeant was very much alive much to the Alliances dismay. Needless to say he slipped away after a gun battle but in doing so lost his job. Over the next several months Harl took any dirty rotten job he could find if it put food in his belly and coin in his pocket. He especially loved a  position that helped him get a little payback on the Alliance for the wrongs he and his men suffered. Harl's latest exploit had brought him to Three Hills, the Capitol to be exact. Bounty Hunting from time to time really helped to fill his coffers and this one he was trailing now looked like an all to easy mark. After a few days the trail ended in Capitol City's Spaceport and it was time to haul in his catch.
