Background/Personality
Gavin was born aboard a deep space station, and grew up an only child raised by a single mother, never knowing his father. As a result he has a close relationship with his mother, Faye. She named him in the style of humans and spent most of his early childhood on 20th century Earth, navigating the strange spot of growing up as an alien species on a planet that did not believe aliens existed. As he entered his teens, his mother moved them both back to a deep space station for his education to be appropriate for a warp-capable species, something that was not possible on Earth at the time. For a time he returned to Earth in his early 20’s, but spent a little less than a decade there before leaving due to political tension and pandemics.
Eventually Gavin established himself as captain of the Shadow, a civilian mining vessel and long haul freighter that he operates in some of the more dangerous sectors near Orion and Klingon space. Over the years, the Shadow has been retrofitted to be armed to the teeth, and via enough run ins with Orion pirates and Klingon raiders, has attained a legendary status and healthy respect. Most know to leave the Shadow alone, and those that don’t quickly learn why you should.
Despite the rough optics, Gavin is a romantic and enjoys singing and playing music. He can play a number of instruments, most often guitar and piano. He has also accumulated large amounts of wealth over the centuries and even though the Shadow is the face of his operation, he has many other ventures he's involved in.
