The old spacer Oni Tarn has been plying the spacelanes in and around the Par'tha Expanse for nearly 50 years. He's retired now, and spends every chance he's got in one bar, tavern, cantina, or similar establishment in the Freeworlds Region. After losing his merchant captain's licence, and then his ship, Tarn's most up-to-date residence is the Jaba Hari's on Urlista Station, in orbit above Aelann.

For a free drink, or a few credits (so he can buy himself a drink), Tarn will spin a yarn so fantastic you'll almost believe it's true. And he'll swear to you it is. If there is some ancient relic, or hidden treasure, or secret hideaway, chances are Tarn will know where it is. At least, that's what he'll tell you. Whether you choose to believe him or not is your business. He claims to know the location of Darkwater, where Vargoth the pirate captain hid his treasure and killed his crew to seal the secret. He also claims knowledge of The Temple of Ka'al, where immortality can be gained, the Winged Ubali, a jewel-encrusted statue as large as three men, and the Yondron, an ancient automated vessel that still plies the spacelanes, full of the most advanced weaponry ever created. No one has yet accepted the word of a crazy old drunk in a bar. But, what if...
The white hair on his head matches the white stubble along his jaw. His weathered leathery face and slightly shaking hands could be explained away due to age, or his over-fondness for alcoholic beverages. Oni would tell you otherwise. "It's the things I've seen! One man can't see as much as I have in his lifetime and still be the same."
