Ryder came into a position of responsibility without proper preparation or training, and I imagine a lot of his early days as a Pathfinder as very tense, very focused. He had things to do, had problems to solve, but at least, he had a crew he could rely on, that gradually became closer as they solved this new galaxy's riddles and faced its dangers. He is very logical. He thrives when he gets to think things through and act on his conclusions, and struggles in situations when he has to make quick decisions, which he often later regrets. Towards others, he falls back on a professional attitude, often to make the more experienced people in charge of the Andromeda Initiative take him seriously. When the situation warrants it, such as with close friends, he can be very emotionally earnest. The only thing one shouldn't expect from him are careless jokes. Professionally, his strength is building alliances and connecting with people.

Mosh Belek Maresh

rpg system: Star Wars - Edge of the Empire

status: active

Mosh is a force-sensitive Zabrak. He's part of the old Jedi order. He was raised in the Jedi temple on Coruscant. But when the time came to be chosen as a padawan by a Jedi master, no one chose him and he was sent to serve with the agricorps where he drove tractors while dreaming of the stars.

As a young adult, he was chosen for a pilot project: a Jedi master was allowed to take on older students - and chose, among others, Mosh. Finally he was free to become a true Jedi! With his padawan colleagues and a mechanic from coruscant, he is sent on various diplomatic missions to keep peace in a galaxy. Meanwhile, the Trade Federation gains power, and a certain Jedi Master Doku has set his eyes on the group ...

Liron Tehezabeh bid-Nahum

rpg system: Splittermond (german fantasy setting)

status: active

Liron is a gnome from a family of Keshabid lock and trap builders from Ashurmazaan. He himself went on to become a fire-mage, much to the dismay of his family, as fire magic is not well looked-upon by their culture, which instead values artifact magic and enchantments. But being chosen by fire elementals and with a strong aptitude for flames, Liron saw no other path than join the Mahjad academy for elemental magic.

Despite their differences, he still does the occasional work for his family - that's what he did when he met the group of people with whom he now travels. He is quick to talk, to act and to a lesser degree to anger, and is accompagnied by a taciturn wolf-man who protects him from physical danger.

During his latest assignment of behalf of his family, he met a group of people travelling on a flying sailboat with whom he ended the plague that kept the city in its hold - by freeing the ghost of the mighty mountain spirit that was trapped in its dying body, and by allowing the egg of a new mountain spirit to hatch. His assignment now finished, he is free to travel and decided to stay on the flying sailboat with his new friends.
