Background
--------------------

Bishop is average size ysoki with sandy brown fur, black eyes, and large round ears that always seemed perky and vigilant. He wears ragged, travel worn clothes over a form- fitting armor(all in drab colors), as well as a cloak that is a dark blue with silver stars and butterflies that flicker in any sort of light. He is generally quiet but once he identifies you as a companion he can't be shut up.

5 background:

1. Bishop grew up a nomad in a traveling caravan where he learned self sufficiency.
2. His caravan was caught in the middle of a gang war and ended up completely burned to the ground. There was a handful of survivors and Bishop's Uncle Scut was now his only living relation. Bishop and his uncle moved to the city as his uncle was too old to rebuild and start anew on the road.
3. Bishop's uncle was a mystic who drew his power from the stars and the great cosmos. Scut noticed Bishop's love for being under the stars and saw an opportunity to pass on his knowledge to his kin. Bishop quickly soaked up his uncle's teachings.
4. Scut passed from old age. Bishop had all his worldly possessions packed up with him at the funeral and went straight to the space docks from the funeral to seek an escape from Akiton.
5. Bishop spent a year employed on a ship captained by a shirren, T'suru. He started out as a clerk, tracking inventory aboard the ship, but upon witnessing and being impressed by Bishop's mystic powers T'suru gave him more and more responsibility until he was second-in-command aboard the vessel.
6. While employed on this ship Bishop fell in love with a fellow ysoki crewmate, Fena. The feeling frightened him and he jumped ship at the next stop. He has bounced from location to location since.

2 goals:

1. In his travels, Bishop has encountered several Starfinders and is interested in one day traveling to the Lorespire Complex and joining their ranks, though not until he feels he is better qualified. Every Starfinder he has met has seemed a kindred soul and though he has always been a loner he suspects being a Starfinder will be the best way to serve a greater good and still retain his nomadic lifestyle and freedom.
2. Seek a better understanding of his powers. He suspects his uncle even only had a meager understanding of the true power of the cosmos.

2 secrets:

1. Bishop's wanderlust actually rubbed off on Fena and she has joined the Starfinder Society since Bishop left.
2. The thought of being tied down to one location frightens Bishop irrationally. He never expects to be in any one spot very long and avoids commitments that could keep him from leaving when he wants.

3 people:

1. Vin Drat, a space pirate who Bishop had serveral run-ins with aboard T'suru's ship and always thwarted, almost always thanks to Bishop. She knows Bishop left T'suru's crew and has been seeking him out, thinking him to be vulnerable alone as looking for revenge.
2. T'suru, the shirren captain who gave Bishop employment on her ship and the opportunity to leave Akiton. T'suru left Bishop an open invitation to come back to her ship anytime.
3. Fena, a pilot who Bishop fell pretty deeply in love with. She spoke of settling down with him somewhere quiet and the thought scared Bishop. He left her without an explanation.

3 memories:

1. The stars as he slept under the night sky on the plains in Akiton.
2. The flames engulfing his first home and screams of his friends and family.
3. The face and delicate voice of his first love, Fena.
