                   Combination tactical/weapons officer and operations officer, this guy is tough.  He joined the military at the age of 15 and became an armaments and technology expert.  He’s intimidating, but he’s loyal.  He’s a friend of the Captain’s from his military days and the only member of Kenzan’s original crew to remain with him after the start of the labor shortage.  At 38 he’s also the oldest member of the crew.  He’s  5’7”, muscular, with long, spiky, mouse blond hair  (meaning that it is a light blond with a gray/brown tint), and brown eyes.
