Beam me up, Scotty!
There's no image I could use, and I'm bad at drawing. Here's a description:
An unremarkable lowny, she is four feet tall. Her torso is almost entirely round and just below her chest, it begins to taper down toward her neck. Her neck and legs are fairly thick. (To a human, all this would look very overweight, but lowny are normally built this way.) She has green eyes and large filae. By lowny standards, her attractiveness is average.
Name: Vila Orn
Age: Thirty-five
Race: Lowny
Gender: Female
Orientation: Bisexual
Faction: Quaja is in the outer reaches of the galaxy, fairly far from the existing factions. They've observed the two factions from a distance, and are planning to make contact. They know there's a force wiping out planets, and plan to make an alliance with the factions, to help them investigate.
Homeworld: Quaja
Weapons: (Three Max) She recently learned how to use a simple, standard laser gun, shaped similarly to a human handgun. She has the mandatory training on flying battleships, but they're tested every twelve years and never used. The spaceships she pilots have some lasers, but these are minor and, like the battleships, only tested every dozen or so years.
She still has the incredibly sharp 'cannibal tooth,' that all Lowny are born with, and though she's never used it in a fight before, she will if it's a life or death situation.
Abilites: (Four Max, this is sci fi, not magic)
Swimming - Like all lowny, she can swim fast and has clear inner eyelids, so she can see clearly and easily avoid obstacles.
Underwater - When underwater, Vila can fully function for fifteen minutes without coming up for air. After that, she slowly loses consciousness, and goes into a phase where she can survive underwater for a day (but must be found by friends to survive).
Sustenance - Like all lowny, Vila's filae can filter a little bit of sustenance, a tiny bit of pure water, and some oxygen, our of water. This would prolong her life in survival situations.
Intelligence - Lowny intelligence (and therefore Vila's) is not super-powered. However, it is in the top range, compare to other species.
Bio: Vila is one of two heads of Space Exploration - the government-funded scientific organization for space. Slightly small and much smaller organizations like it exist, but they rely on donations (which are usually generous). Space Exploration does the most important projects.
One head stays on Quaja at all times - Opak. Vila is the head that leaves the planet on the most important missions. She's willing to take big risks to increase the knowledge of the lowny species.
Vila and her 'little sister,' Maci were the only two children in their small community, growing up. Maci was specifically raised by a pair, Vila by a trio, but both were raised mostly bit by their community.
Personality: Like all lowny, Vila is intelligent, level-headed and patient. Most lowny are calm, and Vila is too. She got to her position by being adventurous and able to make decisions on the spot. She is brave, but sometimes she waits too long to do things, as she's more patient than the average lowny.
Likes: Learning, exploring
Dislikes: Fighting, training in case of battles, when her crew's too big to easily command
Misc: Even on important missions, crew sizes usually hover around six to twelve.
