PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
The strong features of his mother are most prominent at a glance.
Eli's expression seldom changes as if he is cut from stone, with a near constant squint framed by a clean kept beard. A strong nose ties together the furrowed brow into defined cheeks and strong jawline. In rest, his expression always seem off putting to those that glance at him.
Though he typically avoids eye contact due to the shifting color of his eyes, they are usually a murky blue. If one dares to stare after catching his attention, they might notice the shimmering color his eyes seem to dance between in vibrant light.
Broad and squared shoulders gained from a long life of hard work, Eli keeps himself in working order by way of his trade as a Cargo Hauler. Lifting and moving crates either with his bare hands or through the use of his labor exoskeleton. Most would comment on the slight gut he has, from what he can describe as a comfortable life.
When aboard his ship, or in decent environments, he can be found with a comfortable shirt and a Jumpsuit on without his jacket. Favoring the run of the mill workman's cloths as opposed to much fancier items, Eli doesn't opt for much more than what he needs and can be lost among the dock workers if one isn't aware of him personally. Even with his stocky build.
The final detail being a scally cap that frequently covers his head. Matching his jacket for color, he uses it to keep the dye in his hair in case of rain as a last resort.
Beneath the few layers he wears, hides the Lossara heritage of his father. The thinner skinned areas of his body carrying a shimmering tone to them, such as his palms, joints, and spine. When embarrassed, his cheeks can shimmer as well. His hair when not dyed is like an oil slick. A dark rainbow of colors in the light.
Beneath a black light, his skin is iridescent and carries a slight shine under intense light otherwise.

PERSONALITY AND BELIEFS
How does your character act? How do they think? Do they have any deeply held beliefs or phobias?
STRENGTHS
○ Star Trotter ○ Eli blends in with most every environment he comes across and can easily make friends just the same. A near infectious presence wherever he goes, he's earned and handed out favors. Garnering a large network of names to call for help wherever he may roam.
○ Handyman ○ Independence has made Eli a jack of all trades. From starship repair and maintenance to fine tuning navigation charts, he knows a little about everything and maybe knows someone who knows a lot about a little.
WEAKNESSES
○ Spiteful ○ It takes much less than the typical being to spurn Eli, and quite a bit to earn his favor back. Taking any small slight as a personally curated affront, he can figure out a myriad of ways to make life difficult for someone.
○ Cynical ○ While Eli gets along with most everyone, he doesn't usually trust as easily. A trust but confirm ideology has kept his head above water and him out of jail. Definitively a learned trait from his mother.
○ Wrath ○ When spite gives way to anger, the stocky form with dense muscle lends itself to doling out the rage that boils in his blood. While not a common occurrence, and tempered by the nature of his Paternal bloodline, the petty nature only adds to the mounting anger behind it all.
HISTORY
Elicar Sikcomb is the son of a proud Valgauthian woman by the name of Malca Sickomb. Raised by his mother and her family, he did not want for attention given their situation.
A one night stand between Malca and one of the more interesting beings to wander endlessly between the stars. A Lossara by the name of Baste, who had taken a fancy with her in what Elicar can only imagine as a whirlwind of events. Something his mother has yet to divulge any further details about other than vague allusions when looking at her son.
A fact that still has not been remedied to this day.
Untroubled by the lack of details, Elicar only initially came into learning of his other heritage after he began to experience physical changes. Enough that made him stand out in school compared to the relatively homogeneous collective around him. Other humanoids pointing out the strange sheen of his hair and the glittering quality of his skin as a means of childish tormenting.
Most of the tormenting was simply brushed aside given everyone dolled out the same as they received given the nature of Valgauthian's.
Elicar however noticed slowly that he was a particularly easy target outside of the usually different species in significantly lower numbers around him. His lineage however made him a particular favorite for such attacks later in his school years, and would be part of his development into leading an isolated lifestyle.
His school years were a mixed bag of success with making friends, awkward enough due to jeering and taunts that he was unsure of himself but magnetic enough to not be kicked out of the larger social circles he found himself in. Even if inclusion was only purchased because of his unique physiology.
Post school years he began to work in salvage yards and different docks, earning a high degree of understanding about spacefaring craft of all varieties. Able to put a wrench on most anything within a starship and get it working again. Even the droid brain systems, although actually programming or working alongside one is still up in the air. The innate curiosity within him never quite satisfied with simply tearing the ships apart when he had spare time.
