Orlando Hermanez Ruis

History: When Orlando was a young man, he washed out of the navy. He drifted for a while, coming to rest at a hydrogen refueling station/bar/low rent dive. When the station started to catastrophically fail, he helped a couple of the other bar regulars pilot the only available ship. They made it away and drilled out of the system with the station personnel and residents, but he was the only member of the bridge crew that survived. This experience made him rededicate himself to learning how to be a pilot and navigator, and he continues to strive to improve.

Orlando does have a little combat experience and a "souvenir"... Betty the Heavy Machine Gun. She needs to be mounted to be most effective, but might be a welcome addition to the arsenal.

Ruis is short, a bit stocky and seems to be constantly furrowing his eyebrows. He's never won any beauty pageants but he's quick with a smile and has a natural affability. He does display poor judgement on occasion as well as occassional impulse control problems.
