Steve has always been fascinated with learning the unknown or in most modern-day cases learning the not known well and when he is not investigating people, he is wishing he was in the clouds on a plane or helicopter but since those are not an option, he watch's movies that haven't been turned to ash on whatever he can get to turn on. Since. Steve has relied on his wits and good attitude with strangers to get information out of them and not get shot/stabbed. Steve ended up in Nyheim by his own desire of adventure and discovery, when he heard rumors of a place where aircrafts of some kind could still be found functioning, he took the chance and found his way to a man who would take him to Nyheim by boat but inevitably the man knocked Steve out and robbed him of his things, but he kept his word and left Steve cold and confused in Nyheim.

past: I will cut to the chase when I was young, and I mean really young my parents died in a car crash......I don't know why but the police didn't catch the guy which annoys the shit outta me.......maybe that's why....never mind I won't go into....that....but anyway I was so persistent on details and about the case that the lead investigator took notice. he must have liked something about me cause he adopted me. he wasn't much of a father but then again, I can barely remember anything before I was 3 which was around the same time all that shit happened. I blame him for what I am now....huh I really am turning into him....he taught me what I know, how to question people, how to find clues, how to beat the crap out of someone with a pipe, how to steal government documents without getting caught you know normal 14-year-old things. one thing that really stuck with me though was how he would never give in to authority or to anyone actually. I remember one time a guy tried to mug him with a knife on the way out of the liquor store and, he dogged his first swipe then grabbed the guy and threw him headfirst into a light pole.....he handcuffed that guy to the pole and left him there and we got into our car but didn't drive off. instead, he gave me a chocolate bar and water and told me (look kid see how he is out there in the cold...no one coming to help him....unable to get free....that's a real punishment....and he is going to stay there until tomorrow....and then he will do the same inside a concreate box with others just like him) turns out the guy was a murderer.....and that son of a bitch new that
