Ontiveros
Biography
As a young bounty hunter Ontiveros made his name engaging in long treks to recover fugitives believed long gone. His tenacity was his greatest virtue (followed closely by loyalty). Recently he captured notorious criminals Grun and Chensky, yet he was cheated out of the very lucrative bounty when they turned the tables and stole his ship. Now dispossessed, he finds himself alone on the backwoods planet of Helios IV.
Race
Ontiveros is a Pachydermata strain of Saurian. His family moved to the TU sector 2 generations ago, and they have rarely encountered any others of their kind.
Physiology
Pachydermata are 4-6" taller than humanoids on average, but built much more stoutly. Males average 4-500 pounds in weight with extremely dense bone structures. Their ears are large and floppy, measuring 8 or more inches in width, leading to exceptional hearing. Their snouts are about one foot in length and are used in eating as well as self expression. The tusks are underdeveloped and rarely exceed 10 inches. Locomotion is deliberate, and they are natural, albeit slow, swimmers. Their large, wide feet make climbing difficult.
