Scud Drakkar

Nuuken "Scud" Drakkar is an interstellar courier working for Galactic Express, and later a key member of the Adelaaran Resistance Movement. He pilots a Saechan Roulotte CX which he has called Daisy.

Appearance
Scud is of average height and weight for a human his age. He has light olive skin and dark brown hair. He will typically wear a long-sleeve shirt and long pants, sometimes a light jacket.

Background
Scud was born and raised on Adelaar, specifically in the city of Branche. His dad was a shuttle chauffer, taking rich passengers around the planet for a nominal fee, giving Scud a good chance at having a decent upbringing. However, some freudian shit happened and Scud decided he wasn't going to be like that and did everything he could to dissappoint his dad apparently.

Royal Mining Corps
When he finished school he was offered a position in the pilot training school, and since no other option sounded good, he signed up. He showed promise in his skills as a pilot, but was lacking in the etiquette portion of the whole chauffer business. He never graduated, instead taking a job in the Royal Mining Corps as a collector pilot. Basically, his job was to pilot a big container ship around to all of the fracture mining ships and collect their payload, drop it off at the refinery, and then repeat for the entire working day.

He got his big break when he was asked to pick up a shipment of drilling heads at the Galactic Express hub. His boss didn't want him to go alone, and sent him with Vaaka, a fracturer pilot who had become Scud's only friend. While there he saw a help wanted sign for a small order courier. He inquired and found he was more than qualified, the pay was better, and he got a bonus to buy a new ship for the job. He spent half the money on an older freighter which he swore would be awesome when he fixed up. The other half was "f**k you" money. Vaaka also signed on as his navigator, and while he knew nothing about navigation, Scud vouched for him as the best navigator in the galaxy.

Galactic Express
As a small order courier, he was tasked with going around the Commonwealth and picking up shipments that needed to go directly to another dock, and were too important or valuable to go in a bulk freighter. His copilot Vaaka eventually picked up the whole navigation thing after stuffing his bunk with every single textbook he could find.

Inspiration (Author's Notes)
Scud is kind of a cross between Han Solo (duh) and Fry (from futurama), but with knowledges of weird things that he has no business knowing, he reads a lot of articles on the Tachnet. He will also frequently break the fourth wall in a subtle way while talking to other characters to explain something about the world.
