Archer grew up in Von Braun on Luna, hearing stories about the invasion and the discovery of life through out the galaxy. Where they saved the Balaurians from extinction and aided the Anari and Nighten from a hostile force known as the Insectoids. It all seemed like it came out of a sci-fi movie. Ever since then he always wanted to travel the stars. He would always jump at the chance to get a look at visiting aliens, many times he would get into trouble.
