Name: Mikey Cobb
Birth Name: Michelle Maya Cobb
Alias: Maya Morgan
Birthday: October 15th, 2501
Age: 18
Home Planet: Persephone
Parents: Jayne Cobb and Eva Morgan
Current Location: Firefly transport Serenity
Profession: Pickpocket/Thief
History: Michelle was born to Jayne and Eva when they were both teenagers. Jayne left when Michelle was still a baby, to go off and be a merc, leaving Eva to raise the baby on her own. Amazingly enough, Eva didn't hate Jayne for his decision and always told Michelle about her father. One of the girl's prized possessions is a picture of her parents when they were teenagers, along with an old jacket of her father's.
Eva died when Michelle was seven, leaving the girl to her own resources. Michelle, now known by "Mikey" by the other street children, turned out to be an exceptional pickpocket and thief. She lived with the children until she was about fourteen when she met Alexander Sutherland, "Lex". He was looking for someone to team up with and show him the ropes of the street, as his parents had died the previous year. Mikey showed the sixteen-year-old the ropes, mainly because she thought he was cute and because the two were rapidly becoming friends. After awhile, Lex discovered he was quite good at thieving.
Mikey and Lex met Muireann Archer, known as "Murray" when she was 14, the other two being 16 and 18, respectively. The three of them teamed up and eventually were able to get a small flat together. Mikey recently met her father by chance when she picked the pocket of one of his crewmates, and then joined the crew, in order to get away from their lives on Persephone.
