Novice Unknown Thri-Kreen, Crewman Currently Incapacitated
Background
Zicks was born and raised on a Leaf Ship and does not know anything outside of living on a ship in the Crystal Spheres. Some of his elders talk of a distant desert planet where sorcerer kings rule and magic defiles the land. This sounds like scary bedtime stories to him and he puts little stock into it.
Once he was old enough, he became a thorn ship pilot doing reconnaissance missions. These were mostly routine, but one day returning to the Leaf Ship, something big emerged filling his entire view, blacking out all the stars around him. He quickly veered away to avoid collision, but when he got back on course, whatever it was had gone. Surprisingly, his Leaf Ship was also gone leaving Zicks to wander aimlessly for close to two years until upkeep and repairs made his Thorn Ship not worth the effort. Since then he has been looking for a new ship to take him on, finding it difficult due to his insectoid nature. He still wonders what happened to the Leaf Ship, but is content getting back to exploring the stars for now.
Description
Zicks is a 6'5" brownish green mantis man. His carapace is darker than normal due to his exposure to the blackness of space. He speaks in a series of whirs and clicks that are sometimes to fast for others to comprehend. He is a competent crewman and quick to assist in any task, especially violence in the name of protecting the ship or crewmates. His preference to eat the flesh of sentient beings makes him somewhat feared and avoided. Something he does not understand.
