Instead he served with an army of another kind. He was a longstanding member of the IRA, recruited by an uncle after the deaths of his parents on Bloody Sunday. It took capture by the British, and five years of brutal prison life to change that path. When he was finally released, Finn shed his old name, using a few of his old contacts to re-forge himself.<br/><br/>Finn took on the life of a freelance demolitions expert, doing dirty work around the world long enough so that he could afford more formal schooling than his freedom fighter upbringing could grant him. Taking a move across the pond, he attended MIT, surviving more on charm than intellect, though he wasn't entirely short of that. When he graduated, he was approached by a handler for the NSA. The man made Finn a simple offer. He could sign on with them, or they would return him to the British.<br/><br/>Despite the rather forced nature of the offer, Finn has adapted to the service well. After all, the accomodations and equipment usually beat the hell out of mercenary outfits.
