Background: Explorer has been what his name suggests for most of his life. Educated through year 4, he skipped town and stowed away on a freighter when he was 5. He struck a bargain with the captain and learned the basics of ship maintenance and astrogation over the next year when he left the ship and applied at Stellar Queries, one of the premier exploration firms on the Edge. His credentials were sufficient and he spent the next few years working his way up the corporate ladder. At age 11 he was promoted to captain of the Razor Maw, a fierce-sounding name for a piece of junk repurposed freighter. He spent much of his personal assets and time to refitting it with decent equipment and a few weapon systems. Last year he even managed to get a shield emitter for it so asteroid fields and the like wouldn’t require a quarter-year on the dry docks getting his hull replaced. His crew of three trusts him pretty well, and in general agrees with his interpretations of corporate directives.

Skills: Explorer is an excellent pilot. He’s made more than a few tricky runs through asteroids or the upper surfaces of gas giants, out running some outlaws misguided dreams of riches from his freighter. He’s also picked up a lot of repair know-how from his tenure in addition to knowing a considerable deal about orbital mechanics and can do much of his daily calculations without the ship’s nav computer, a skill he prides because he hasn’t bothered to upgrade that piece of hardware.

Hobbies: Explorer is a work-a-holic, anything he would consider a hobby, has to do with his ship. He spends most of his ‘free-time’ writing up reports about his adventures for corporate to ensure them he his fulfilling his duty to them. He also spends a lot of time working on the ship. He rarely finds himself with any deal of funds, so he has to make do with what he has, resulting in a lot of jerry-rigging of the ship’s systems.

Gear: Explorer usually dresses in usual Ignisato pilot’s attire, a vacuum-ready jumpsuit with a built in rebreather system and air tanks enough to last for 4 hours. He usually leaves the helmet off however. A holster hangs at his hip as well, containing a pistol of traditional Ignsiato design, magnesium rounds. His jumpsuit contains a multitude of pouches, in which he usually stores repair devices like an arc-welder, tape and an odd assortment of spare parts in addition to his omni. An omni is what the Ignisato came to call their cellphones with cameras and internet connection because it could do nearly anything.
