Ryker Voss – The Rogue of the Stars
Alias: Captain Ryker Voss
Age: Early 30s
Eyes: Piercing Blue
Hair: Wavy Brown, always slightly unkempt
Species: Human (probably)
Occupation: Interstellar Pirate, Treasure Hunter, General Scoundrel
Ship: Starhawk (fast, sleek, barely held together but undeniably stylish)
Personality:
Ryker Voss is charm wrapped in chaos, a rogue with a smirk that can talk his way into (and out of) nearly any situation. He’s bold, unpredictable, and always looking for the next great adventure—or the next great treasure. While he plays the fool, don’t be mistaken; behind the swagger and quips lies a dangerously clever mind that’s always five steps ahead.
He lives by three rules:
Never let a good opportunity go to waste.
Talk first, shoot later—unless shooting first is funnier.
If you can’t win, cheat. If you can’t cheat, run. If you can’t run… well, improvise.
Skills & Talents
Silver-Tongued Scoundrel – Fast talker, smooth liar, and dangerously persuasive.
Duelist – Prefers blasters but is shockingly skilled with a cutlass. Because style matters.
Treasure Hunter – If it’s lost, stolen, or rumored to be cursed, Ryker will find it… and probably steal it.
Master of the Grand Escape™ – Wanted in twelve systems and yet still sipping drinks in a cantina near you.
Backstory:
Born in the slums of a backwater planet, Ryker learned early that life favors the quick and the clever. Orphaned young, he clawed his way up the ranks of the criminal underworld, bouncing between crews, betrayals, and bold heists before stealing his own ship—the Starhawk. Since then, he’s become a legend in the making, chasing mythical treasures, dodging bounty hunters, and somehow surviving situations that should’ve killed him ten times over.
He’s been shot, stabbed, frozen, and once married to a crime lord’s daughter (long story, don’t ask). Yet, he keeps laughing, keeps running, and keeps reaching for the stars.
Wanted For:
Grand Theft Starship
Smuggling & Piracy
Public Indecency on Zarnath-5 (He insists it was a misunderstanding.)
"Liberating" an Imperial Governor’s personal vault
Way too many unpaid bar tabs
