Personal Traits:
Venrir is a big, burly, muscular Halanan. He looks almost completely human,
with the exception of double-pointed ears. He has a definite preference for
action over words, and is never idle. Even his relaxation time is spent
whittling, or painting, or at the very least, watching news broadcasts.
He's not particularly fond of reading, and that extends to technical
manuals and schematics. Fortunately, he's exceptional at making it up as he
goes along. His ability to MacGuyver-up acceptable solutions to tough
problems has facilitated his rise to Chief Engineer.
Halanans are capable of psychoprojective telepathy, which means they can
project pure-energy images using his mind. These images can speak and
interact with physical objects. Venir is exceptionally good at this, and is
often in two different places at once doing two different tasks - three if
he really exerts himself (but the requisite rest period afterwards keeps
him far too idle for his tolerance). Like any Halanan, he can only project to a place he's been before or to a specific person. Usually Venrir projects to a person since that's easier.
Unfortunately he's not immune to the downside of this ability: Halanans
under extreme stress project randomly, unwillingly, and unknowingly,
sometimes leaving the actual physical body incapacitated and medically
unstable.
Personality:
Venrir's gruff and efficient professional demeanor is sometimes mistaken
for annoyance or rudeness. Beating around the bush infuriates him. He
prefers his conversations quick and to the point. The only exception is
philosophy; he can debate in circles for hours over obscure bits of alien
ideology.
Once past his abrasive exterior, people discover that Venrir actually has
an abundant sense of humor and a deep respect for the institution of
friendship. He values loyalty and honesty above all else.
Personal History:
There's nothing spectacular or outstanding in Venir's personal history. The
only item of note is the death of his wife to an unknown illness when he
was 28. Since Halanans mate for life, this loss was especially hard on
him. He tends to distance himself from females off all species,
unconsciously, as a result.
Academy:
Graduated with top honors in engineering... which is a good thing,
considering he was just barely average in his other subjects.
