History

Elwood was born on Delsauria to a freighter pilot and a stay-at-home mom. He has lived a relatively normal life, eventually moving from Delsauria to Pisces Station to better manage the loading and unloading of cargo.

Horizon's Key

Elwood's day started off bad. First, he missed the first shuttle to Pisces station, so he arrived late to work for the Twentieth Time In A Month. Today was his last day as cargo foreman (because of his 20 late arrivals, he was being replaced), so he placed an ad on classifieds and put his datapad on to search for the ad that would get him a new job.

He found the Horizon's Key.

Skills:

Construction:

Being a cargo manager, you have to have a little skill in stacking boxes, eh? Steele can assemble simple shelters and stow cargo effectively.

Vehicles:

Steele knows how to run most civilian vehicles, and can run forklifts very well.

Technology Operation:

Steele has serious tech skills. He can operate most computerized, hydraulic or pneumatic equipment easily.

Maintenance and Repair:

Steele is a capable mechanic, and can repair vehicles and equipment that isn't severely damaged.

Entertainment:

Being a person of normal intelligence and a box stacker by nature, Elwood had to adapt certain skills to keep himself entertained. As such, he is a good joker, can play the electric guitar and mix cocktails off the top of his head.

Physical:

Being a cargo foreman was a tough job, believe it or not, and Steele does not lack in sheer physical strength as a result.

Medical:

Steele has seen bad stuff in his time as a cargo foreman, from people getting nicked by equipment, crushed by cargo boxes and worse. As such, he has done well at repairing his crewmates and keeping them alive until more capable help can arrive.
