"You gonna finish that?"
Name: Rakans'mei Jakarta (Has learned to just go by "Rocky")
Age: 29 earth years
Gender: Male
Race: Skalen- A race of sapient predatory reptilian/humanoid creatures that have evolved on a densely forested heavy gravity world were there are no mammalian species.
Appearance:
- Rocky stands at approximately eight feet tall in height, four and a half feet across at the shoulder, and weighs roughly five hundred and fifty two pounds. He wears a size XXL pair of grey cargo pants and an equally large sleeveless black hoodie.
Ability/Power: As with all Skalens Rocky boasts superhuman levels of strength, and his capable of lifting well over twice his own body weight with some effort.
How they got their Ability/power: Simply put; Evolution. The heavy gravity of his planet coupled with higher oxygen levels than that of earth and a predatory lifestyle has molded Rocky into a strong and durable creature who is a force to be reckoned with in a fight.
Skills: Rocky is an excellent tracker and hunter, using his natural senses and training to hunt down man and beast alike. He's also very well suited to carry heavy cargo and can act as an intimidation tool for the crew as needed.
Equipment: A cleaver, a Sargon b2, and an inhaler
History: There's nothing particularly interesting about Rocky's life. Prior to his people's discovery by humans, he would have simply been placed into either a warrior or hunter caste depending on where his skills shined brightest. However with the colonization of their planet having taken place several decades before his birth, the Skalen had begun taking on other roles to better fit with a rapidly expanding social and economical change. Some Skalen still clung to their traditions unbudgingly, but a other had learned to integrate themselves with a society that offered things like medicine and new and exciting technology. Rocky was best described as a middle point between the two groups of Skalen; taking advantage of things like the human education system while still learning the ways of the hunt from his elders. He eventually got a job as a safari guide for humans eager to hunt the local fauna until amassing enough money to leave his planet in search of new worlds to learn about and hunt on. He would eventually make his way over to Kalda where he would meet a group of people that left a good enough impression on him to convince him to travel with them as a mercenary.
Personality: Despite his primal and vicious appearance, Rocky is actually a rather laid back -if not crude- individual when not engaged in combat. He tries to refrain from giving into his more basic urges, though he has a bit of an issue controlling himself around vast amounts of food, usually resulting in him stuffing himself with as much meat as possible in a single sitting. Rocky is rather fond of the other members of the crew, though his brand of affection is definitely more in line with the tough love mentality, with plenty of shoving and shoulder punching (as much as he can manage without actually hurting someone). The only time one ever has to be careful around Rocky is when there's a fight to be had, as he loses his inhibitions rather quickly and may try to take a snap at someone in the heat of the moment.
Other: Being that he's from a planet with heavy gravity but high oxygen levels, Rocky can move startlingly fast for his size, but can become short of breath very quickly on other planets and as a result, cannot participate in drawn out activities or battles without his inhaler.
