ENS Andy Hudson's page

Andy Hudson grew up in a life of wealth and luxury, shipped from one prestigious New England boarding school to the next. With a life full of expensive hobbies and varsity sports, he built a well-rounded enough portfolio to get into a prestigious college, and then a top-tier medical school.
A few years ago, though, Andy’s life sort of fell apart. His parents, it seemed, had been involved in some sort of fancy Ponzi scheme tied to an illicit cult. Everything went wibbly faster than he could keep track of, but apparently his family was on the hook for over a hundred million dollars, and suddenly everything was gone—the college fund, the family racing yacht, even his beloved childhood pet horse. (His family was also gone, having fled to a South American country with no extradition treaty, and leaving Andy behind to handle the tax-men, repo agents, and weird occult memorabilia he found in the basement)

For that summer, he retreated into video games and books, as he often did—even trying to teach himself some "magic" from the internet—but eventually determined to find a new source of loans and finish out his degree, joining the Naval Reserve Corps as a Medical Officer trainee. It’s not the life he used to, but Ensign Hudson’s fit in well enough, picking up the necessary marksmanship training and acting as dungeon master to his trainee group on friday nights.

Still, Andy’s almost done with medical school—and more importantly, he feels quite done with the life and world he came from, making the possibility of an unknown new one quite exciting.
