Name: Chroma Steel
Species: Stymphalian. A species of spacefaring-capable, but isolationist sapients from Erebus, a star system known for a large amount of unshielded, mineral and metal-rich planets. Stymphalian civilizations are known for their sophisticated technology (particularly material sciences and engineering) and stratified hierarchy, but little else is known. The hostile nature of the environment they live in and their low population numbers had made them been considered a minor power, thus not worthy of study or consistent interaction on a galactic level.
Description: Chroma is a metallic humanoid with the legs of a raptorial bird and iridescent feathers for hairs which she can raise or lower depending on her mood. Her eyes are large and white with big black pupils. She rarely blinks and emotes, furthering comparsions to robots. Chroma is strange and moody. She rarely talks which, when combined with a lack of human-readable expressions, can lead people to assume she is inscrutable and/or unpredictable. In reality, she is friendly enough and willing to play nice if people can get past her impervious air.
Chroma is moderately tall (6'0") and of an androgynous build. She is fairly typical for a Stymphalian in terms of height and physique.
Bio: Chroma migrated from the planet of Stymphalos in an effort to further her medical career. For all her dreams and ambitions, she eventually ended up working a thankless job at a third-rate xenohospital, where the hours were long and the pay was low. Eventually, the amount of hours exceeded the limits of her patience and she had enough. She tore an autodoc out of the drone storage, much to the surprise of staff, who knew better to get in a way of a large scary metal bird, and trudged off to a nearby bar to "celebrate" her early resignation.
Skills:
Innate: Stymphalians are notoriously resistant to a large spectrum of biological, chemical and nuclear hazards. They have a larger tolerance for extreme temperatures, both bone-chillingly cold and blistering hot, and discombobulatingly low oxygen levels. While they last as long as the average spacefaring human aganist bullets, lasers, and other forms of battlefield violence, their unnatural constitutions means they can offer to take unique...approaches to life.
Learned: Chroma is an (ex)xenodoctor of moderate expertise. The wide variability of her patients and ad-hoc training means Chroma is consistently familiar with xenobiology, and the sourcing, synthesis, and administration of proper pharmaceuticals on various species while exhibiting decent bedside manner. While Chroma is competent at triage, she is a medical generalist and may lack specialist experience for more unusual medical emergencies. However, like a proper doctor, she is willing to learn.
Chroma has passing familiarity with firearms as mandatory conscription is not uncommon in Stymphalian civilizations. Chroma is a mediocre fighter at best but she will fight.
Equipment: Spacesuit armored enough to withstand a few good rounds of lasers and bullets. A medium-sized coventional firearm since metal bullets are far cheaper than laser rounds and a few magazines. First aid kit. Biometric scanner. Survival knife. "Autodoc," a semi-autonomous mechanical platform designed for assistance in medical emergencies.
