Character Bio
Birth Planet: Londinium
A battlefield medic in the War, Bean drifted aimless for a long time afterwards.
Hopping from planet to planet in search of he wasn't sure what, he finally traded on wartime contacts to become an Itinerant Peacekeeper. The job didn't have any particular solid authority, but it was respectable work and let him keep hopping around the 'Verse.
From time to time he'd find himself tracking down the occasional fugitive, but mostly he just offered his services in keeping the peace when he touched down in places where the peace had become a mite stretched. In truth, he was most often signed on to bring his medical expertise to bear than for any respect regular lawmen held for his bartered rank.
Space stations were typically the exception to that rule.
But Bean's bartered rank and medical expertise in battle trauma had conspired to ensure he set boots on the blood washed decks of Kaituo only days into the aftermath. He knew what had happened there. And he knew the full extent of the coverup.
Bean avoided space stations.
