Who am I?

T'OVEH

What is my purpose?

In the beginning

I was born among a galaxy so beautiful and complex that it would take me ages for my words to do it justice. I pride myself lucky that I was never truly alone; Space Babies of all shapes and sizes were never far away. We stuck together in the beginning, exploring planets, racing among the moons and comets, or just floating aimlessly through the cosmos and marveling at the wonders around us.

​

 Though there were many of us, countless broke off and took to the stars, or their home, in search of their Purpose. Quite a few found theirs in small but important goals they set for each other while many found theirs in epic quests. I felt my Purpose like an ache in my chest, making me restless and yearn to sail the stars.

​

My Purpose was to fall in love.

​

I knew I would not find my Purpose in this galaxy and so I set to building a ship fit for my travels which took quite a bit longer than normal due to key components somehow going missing but sure enough, it was finished. I bid farewell to many friends and took to the stars with a few others who felt their Purpose was elsewhere as well. We slowly parted ways until I was alone with nothing but my thoughts, following my heart into the unknown.

Likes

  • T'oveh will always be fond of the color blue, it reminds him of his old home; blue planets, skies and azure pastures as soft as silk.

  • Storytelling is something he's come to love over his travels but some information is best left unsaid.

  • Feeling sunlight after a long venture is something he finds relaxing and often other SB's will gather and relax in a pile.

  • Opposable thumbs. Enough said.

  • Wandering off on his own though his escapades have resulted in a lot of trouble and unwanted attention.

  • Competition. When it comes down to it, T'oveh has a wicked competitive streak.

  • He loves all forms of music, taking the time to pick up a few instruments and learning to play, blending styles and sounds to create something unique. 

  • He loves collecting shiny objects (hence the jewelry) from stones and gems to unknown objects collected from other planets (aka 90% trash).

​​

Strengths

  • T'oveh prides himself in being swift and agile for his frame, standing nearly 7 feet tall.

  • Due to his odd dimorphism, he can blend in well with many other bipedal species in the universe.

  • He considers himself loyal, protecting those he finds near and dear.

  • T'oveh is quite the silvertongue, able to talk his way out of almost any situation with only minor wounds.

  • Has a high pain tolerance physically.

  • Mind like a steel trap, he is very organized and categorizes all information he cares to remember or finds interesting.

    • No set of blueprints is too complicated

  • Confident in his actions even if he may be nervous on the inside.

  • Usually has gut feelings about certain people that steers him in the right direction.

  • Handles situations extremely well under stress

Dislikes

  • T'oveh absolutely hates the cold whether it be the cold of space or a planet's climate. If it doesn't suit his liking you can bet he never stays long.

  • He hates weaponry. Though his ship is equipped to defend itself, he hates carrying weapons and will resort to other methods of escape.

  • He dislikes the sight of blood,it causes him to be squeamish and will result in him using quick and cheap med tech to stitch up whatever needs to be stitched up, leaving him with colorful blue scars.

  • Too much stimulus causes him to get extremely nervous. He will often avoid large, densely populated planets especially those known commonly for shore leaves. 

  • Corruption. As much as he wants to believe there is good in every being, he has had encounters with black hole types of his kind and has seen too many planets at war to not know that the hearts of many can be easily swayed.

Weaknesses

  • There is a fine line between confidence and cockiness and T'oveh crosses that line way more often than not.

  • He is loyal but at what price? He has been known to sabotage others if it means either he or his friends can get ahead. It's all games to him so he may not even realize the impact he had on others.

  • The life of a silvertongue is a double-edged sword; become too familiar with others and your tells start to show.

  • It's hard for him to tell exactly how bad he's hurt until the adrenaline wears off and he has some time to assess the damage. He's been incapacitated for weeks at a time.

  • He can almost never say no if someone is in need of help. He's been getting better but his empathy has been used against him.
