Changes

His life was quite different before however, as Mono was born into the '''[[Longshore clans''']], who live short brutal lives on Necromunda's surface. Growing up on the edges of the '''[[Palatine Cluster''' ]] [[Hive]]s, also compounded his low status as their distant spires taunted Mono with the promise of safety and wealth. His fate suddenly changed though, when a [[Scavvy]] trader sold him a strange one-eyed hood, which turned out to be an ancient [[Strato-Pilot]] helmet. When he put it on, Mono discovered the helmet's oculus-augur gave him a unique view of the world and amazing physical reactions as a result. He soon found a new path in life while wearing it, after he carved up a bar full of drunken mag-line dusters with his grab-hook and in the fight's bloody aftermath, he realized that he had a talent for mayhem. Mono then put the world out that he was looking for "extra work" and quickly made a name for himself, by bringing down [[Three-toes Jack]] during the '''[[Rustfalls Uprising''']], and running with the [[Sump City Sirens]] during their takeover of the '''[[Delta Zone Dust Wells''']]. Despite his success though, Mono always returns to Port Mad Dog, for as the Longshore clanners always say - "blood is thicker than ash".{{Fn|1}}
