Name: Drew Tyson, captain of the ISS Starhammer, a Heavy Battlecruiser

Faction: Factionless human mercenary who sells the services of himself and his ship to the highest bidder

Personality: A generally good man, although willing to stoop for enough money, he will be loyal up to a point, but will not consider endangering his ship and crew for no reason. He captains his ship with an iron fist, making his crew extremely disciplined and exact in their actions. They will never rout and run, even if defeat is inevetible. His diplomatic skills are above average, as needs to be as a mercenary, but he will sometimes make mistakes that can, depending on the situation, prove costly.

Skills: A skilled captain of his ship, he knows the ins and outs of all the strengths and weaknesses of his ship and knows how to use it to best effect. Although a man of no more than average stature he has decent self-defence skills and can handle himself fairly well in a fight if needs be, although he only really shines at the helm of his ship.

History: Born to the leader of a mercenary band and raised in his shadow, Drew is constantly trying to live up to the expectation his father had of him, which can sometimes make him make mistakes. However he found his true calling at the head of the Starhammer, and has made a small fortune fighting for less powerful beings. His dream is to buy an Imperial Main-Soveriegn and become an even greater power on the battlefield.

How they prefer to operate (in case you're not around if something happens, I can judge what your character does): He is not stupid, and will not put his ship in danger for no reason. However, if a strategy seems sound enough he sticks to it until ordered otherwise, even if it means going up against far greater odds. He is mostly honourable, and won't flop from one side of a war to the other without many good, clear reasons and a substantial increase in reward. I know at the start a heavy battlecruiser is very very strong, I was just thinking that as he does not intend to build a fleet of them it would be ok as there would only be one of him. The ship can be downgraded if needs be though. If I need to add or take away anything feel free to ask I'm happy to :)

Well, the issue here is that at the beginning, you could beat just about everyone, while at the end you'll be sorely outmatched.
