Born in Philadelphia as the youngest of three brothers, his family lived peacefully outside the city until his father, Adam, was called to serve in the Mexican-American war. A soldier by choice, Adam served with honor and survived the conflict. When the war ended, he moved his family to Texas, partially out of love of the climate and partially to escape his debts in Pennsylvania. The oldest brother remained behind, a successful trader in the city and disowned by their father for looking down on the military.
Still a child, Adrian grew up quickly in Texas. His other brother, likewise, went into trading, though he traded in slaves, much to his father’s annoyance. Worked into shape by his father, Adrian developed a solid physique for a career in the military while his brother tried to teach him trade skills. Liking neither and wanting to be away from his overbearing father, Adrian by the age of 15, had joined a group of ruffians. It was at this time a Measles outbreak would claim a large portion of the city including his parents.

His brother out of town the year before to expand his trade in Missouri, Adrian now had no one except for the ruffians. Learning an unsavory skillset, Adrian eventually headed to the town of Hobbs when he had made too big of a ruckus in the city. There he sent letters to the last known locations of his brothers. Eventually he’d hear back they joined opposing sides in the war.
Truly alone, Adrian would con and steal as he could, spending a good chunk of his ill-gotten gains on women. It was a dishonorable life but he was free to do as he pleased.
