Physical Description: Rex is quite a slender man, on the lower side of a healthy weight for his size. But despite his slender body-build, he has some muscles which gives him a deceptively weak appearance although he has enough muscle to be able to surprise people. His torso is relatively well muscled, along with a well toned stomach with a hint of a six pack. He is still in the height of his youth, so he has a rather young appearance, with a hint of maturity. His blonde hair is of a medium cut, stopping just as it brushes his neck. He has a few locks that stylishly frame his face. His eyebrows are of the same colour as his hair, but they are slim and well formed. They are quite expressive, allowing other people to determine his mood by his eyebrows alone, even if he is giving off no other indications as to how he feels. He has well shaped eyes, with their unusual light purple colour, a feature that is extremely rare among the human population. He has a straight nose that is a good size for his face, and a well shaped mouth. He likes to keep himself quite presentable, prefering to wear smart casual clothing. He also tends to wear a dark blue set of glasses as he is short sighted. 

Personality, Traits and Abilities

General Overview: Rex is a relatively easy-going man, who doesn’t let things ruffle his feathers. It can take a lot to get him angry, and he rarely shows if he is upset. He is also able to tolerate people that most others cannot stand. He can easily joke, even at his own expense. He is quite a confident man, not letting much get him down. He can take criticism on board without feeling slighted or offended. Along with his rather confident manner, he also has a bit of an adventurous soul. Despite how dangerous it is to pilot a trading ship alone, he does it almost with glee. He enjoys his own company, and thus never feels lonely. He gets a sense of peace from flying that he doesn’t get elsewhere, thus he really enjoys his job. Despite liking his alone time, he does seek company whenever he is in a station, so that he can drink, socialise and play games with people. He is a resourceful man, always finding ways to ensure that his ship continues running on the limited resources and technology that he has. When interacting with others, he comes across as quite friendly. While friendly, is isn’t always open about himself, as he tends to keep personal details to himself. He doesn’t particularly like people knowing too much about him, especially as the wrong kinds of people would use that information against him. He also doesn’t tend to ask for personal details from others, either, as he respects the privacy of others and would only accept such personal information if it was offered to him.
Strengths, Skills and Abilities: In terms of any special abilities, he has none, but he does have a few biological advantages over most humans.

• Piloting skills: Due to the fact that he has been flying ships for well over ten years, he has become quite the expert flier. He can navigate his way through various kinds of space from star systems, between systems and even difficult space such as an asteroid field. He can usually find his way around most kinds of ships, with only a minimal amount of adjustment.
• Combat: As he is on his own in a ship, he has had to learn defence in order to fight off boarding pirates. He is quite good at hand to hand combat, knowing a variety of fighting moves that can bring down a heavier, taller and stronger opponent down. He is also able to use energy weapons to defend himself, such as using a pistol, assault rifle and shotgun. He is a good marksman, as he practices often to keep his skills up to date.
• Engineering skills: He has good engineering skills. While he has no official qualification in regards to engineering, he knows his way around a ship and is able to easily fix his own ship. He is very resourceful, and has been forced to Macgyver a number of systems in order to get them to work to avoid being stranded in the middle of nowhere. 
• Denser than average muscles: His muscles are denser than what one would expect of a normal human. This means that his muscles don’t need to be as large to work as hard. Thus he can hide the fact that he is physically quite strong, as he has quite the slender appearance. 
• Better than average smell and hearing: His sense of smell, and hearing is a little more sensitive than a normal humans. His nose is able to identify more scents, and he can smell things from further away. He is able to hear a slightly wider range of frequencies than a human, and he can hear things from further away. 
• Resistance to the cold: He is more resistant to the cold than most people. In the kind of weather where people would be wrapping up warm, he would be walking around in T-shirt and shorts. It’s only the most extreme cold weather, where he will begin to wrap up warmly but it is long after other humans.

Weaknesses: Like any human, he is mortal and thus is subject to a wide range of injuries as well as fatal strikes. 

• Denser than average muscles: While there are advantages to this, it does have its fair share of disadvantages. If the muscle is torn, it can take longer to heal due to how dense it is. On average, it would take twice as long when compared to another human. They also require more energy to function properly, meaning he needs to consume more calories.
• Better than average smell and hearing: As both senses are more sensitive, they are easier to overwhelm. A noxious stench, or a loud sound can incapacitate him easily, making it easier for an opponent to overwhelm him. 
• Intolerance of the heat: In complete opposite to his resistance to the cold, he cannot tolerate the heat. He hates hot weather, and finds it overwhelming at just twenty-five degree celsius weather. This can result in his passing out due to heat stroke, which can cause other problems such as hitting his head or passing out somewhere, where he isn’t safe.
• Eyesight: Rex is quite shortsighted. Without his glasses, only things within fifteen centimetres are in focus. Everything else is a blue, meaning that he has to wear his glasses all the time.

Ambitions (Hopes/Dreams): He is quite content with how life is at the moment, although he would love to be able to get enough money together to put his ship into retirement and buy a new one. While it has served him well, it is very dated.
Hobbies and Interests: He absolutely loves flying his ship, as it gives him a thrill like no other. Other than that, whenever he is in port and has finished his business for the day, he often likes to head to one of the bars, have a few drinks and play cards with other patrons. While on the ship, there are various ways that he passes the time while waiting to get from one place to another. He likes to exercise, as it keeps him in shape. He also likes to build small ship models, which he sometimes sells at stations that he visits to any interested parties. This doesn’t just include space ships but old sea ships. He does them all from scratch, buying raw materials at the stations, and builds them on his ship. A single ship may take weeks, or even months to finish but he does this more as a way to pass the time than any real desire to make money from them. 

Personal Sexual Information

Sexual Orientation: Bi-sexual
Turn ons:

• Making love with someone he is in a deep emotional bond with
• His partner deriving pleasure from what he is doing to them
• When dominant, he likes to be a little rough. How rough would depend on the masochistic nature of his partner, however he doesn’t like to hit or slap. The furthest he will go, is pulling on someone’s hair, firm spanks, rough face fucking and even choking to an extent.
• Giving and receiving oral.

Turn offs: 

• Being in pain, and causing pain to others especially if that isn’t something his partner is interested in. He wants to give them pleasure, after all.
• Gore
• Vore
• Necrophilia
• Scat, and other such disgusting fetishes
• Water sports
• Adult Baby

Penis Length: 9”
Sensitivity: Average for a male of his species
Additional Sexual Information: Despite his sexuality, he is romantically monogamous. Thus he will remain loyal if he has chosen a partner. Likewise, he expects his partner to give him the same respect, although this is a rule he restrains only to established relationships where they have agreed to be a couple and monogamous. If he has a friends with benefits, or a one night stand, he doesn’t hold them to the same standard. He also won’t expend the same kind of energy on a fling that he would an actual relationship. With females, he tends to be more sexually dominant. But with males he is a little more switch, although more prone to submit to more dominant men. His cock is also slightly different from what one might expect from a human. It has a slightly pointier tip, and the base swells slightly upon orgasm. He also has a relatively quick recovery rate, allowing him to continue quite quickly.
STD History: Clean.

Grandparents: Kevin Gunner and Andrea Gunner on his father's side, Peter Strong and June Strong on his mother's side.
Ship: He has a rather old trading ship, called The Rising Star. It was given to him by his father, after he had retired. Thus it is quite an old ship, and quite slow. But it is reliable, easy to maintain and Rex is very familiar with it as he practically grew up in it. It has, for the current level of technology, low strength shields. It has a Tritanium-alloy hull, protecting it from a number of different types of attack. It also has three pulse turrets, giving him a wide arch of attack. They do a reasonable amount of damage, but is no match for a better equipped ship. 

Place of Residence: When he is in a port, he will rent a room, but primarily his home is his ship.
Pet: None.

History

Awards/Commendations: None

Medical Record: He has short sightedness, and he can barely see without his glasses. But otherwise his medical record is quite clean. 
Bio: When Rex was born, Mars was still in the midst of its civil war between the democratic government and the socialist ‘rebels’. His mother worked as a doctor, often having to deal with large amounts of wounded caused by the fighting. Due to her profession, she was often close to the front lines, but it was not something that could be helped. Even if she could be dragged away from her patients, she would refuse as her sense of duty was exceptionally strong. His father wasn’t a soldier, but was a civilian that served the military. Despite the fact that the ‘rebels’ were attacking supply lines in an attempt to starve the population into submission, Daniel Gunner used his trusty ship, The Rising Star, to ferry the colony with supplies from earth and other such colonies. He almost met his end several times, due to hit and run attacks by the ‘rebels’. Due to this, his mother took primary care of him on the planet's surface.

However when he was five years old, there was a ‘rebel’ terrorist attack on the hospital where his mother was working. There were no military personnel serving there, nor were there any governmental function there. It was a civilian hospital, filled with civilian patients. Due to strained resources, it was hours before they were able to recover her body from the ruins. Daniel was devastated, and he took over the primary care of their son, Rex. It was hard for the two to adjust without Lauren in their lives, but it drew them close together and Rex greatly respected his father for the strength he displayed after the loss of his wife, a woman he had loved deeply. After Lauren’s death, he had never remarried, as in his mind, no one could replace her. A year after Lauren’s death, the war ended with the ‘rebels’ being taken out once and for all allowing the democratic government to finally get back to do what it had intended from the moment the colony settled. 

After that, Rex pretty much grew up on The Rising Star. While he was born on Mars, he only stepped foot on the planet several times a year and never for very long. As journeys could take a long time, Daniel spent a lot of that time teaching Rex what he needed to know and ensuring that he had a good education. As he grew older, he began to help his father more around the ship. He would fix up broken systems, help defend against pirates and even fly the ship if his father needed a break, or needed to do some other chores. He lost his virginity at the age of eighteen to a girl that he had been meeting frequently for a few years and had developed an emotional bond with. The two enjoyed each others company, but their relationship didn’t last. Over the years, he has numerous relationships with both men and women, but none have lasted more than a few years. 

When Rex was thirty, Daniel decided to retire with his savings. He moved to Centauri-Prime, around the Alpha Centauri star, where he bought himself land to set up his own farm so he could live out his days farming. Thus Rex has spent the last two years ferrying cargo around the Earth Alliance territory in the ship that his father gave him.
