Background

Early Years

Franklin Weller was born into poverty in the Redmond Barrens. The son of a smacked out prostitute, little Franklin had to fend for himself. Many were the nights that he went hungry. Often, the only food which filled his belly was the scraps that he could pilfer on the streets. So, the life of a thief came easy to him.

The Cutters first took notice of Franklin when they caught him trying to steal a box of Choco-Slurps from one of the lieutenants. Normally they would have taken a hand for such disrespect, but the lieutenant laughed it off and made the kid a deal. "Come back tomorrow and I'll give you a chance to earn those Slurps." In no time at all, Franklin was stealing for the Cutters, and he was given the nickname, "Pockets."

Graduation

Pockets was quiet enough and cool enough that the gang decided he could handle more responsibility. Before he had even hit puberty, a gun was placed into his hand, and he was told to kill a man. To this day, he regrets not asking who the man was, but he took that gun, walked right up to the man on the street, and pulled the trigger. In that moment, he froze. He just stood there and watched the man die. It wasn't until a crowd began to form that Pockets dropped the gun and ran. From that day on, Pockets was a hitman for the Cutters.
