Freelance Traveller

profiled by Simon Brodie

Ko-raal always wanted to work on board a starship. As soon as he was able, he took working passage on board and drifted from post to post, never finding his vocation. Eventually he became a steward's assistant and has never looked back. His amiable personality and charismatic mannerisms endear him to almost everyone who meets him. Unfortunately, his gambling is not as good as his inter-personal skills and he amassed debts that he could not afford to pay. To save his kneecaps, he jumped ship and has finally settled on board the small freighter The Merry Troubadour, and has fitted in well with the rest of the crew.

Ko-raal has pale blue skin, blue/white hair (hi IR planet) and is slightly shorter and thinner than average. He has a gregarious personality and passengers always have a good time when he is looking after them. Word of this has got round and passengers will travel on the Troubadour just because Ko-raal is the steward. An accomplished chef, he has been increasing his extensive repertoire with Vargr dishes with help from Koerrigzuefeng.
