* TheAlcoholic: He eventually traded in the merc life to settle down in Amber Heights and spend his remaining years getting piss drunk at the local watering hole.
* CoveredInScars: If half of what he says is true he hasn't had an easy life and the mess of scars running across his face is proof enough that he's seen his share of the nastier aspects of frontier life on a sulfurous moon brimming with hostile wildlife.
* RetiredBadass: He was apparently quite the warrior in his younger days and has the scars to prove it.
