Characters - Blue Planet

Every once in awhile I get on a character building kick, thought I might toss some of them up here. Not sure what, if any, purpose this will serve but have a look maybe they'll be useful.

Starting off with some Blue Planet (v2) characters I made. These are pretty quick to generate other then figuring out equipment and biomods. I used the elite character method working with the concept that this is an elite team put together to research aborigines by the GEO. They're basically being sent out to independently scour Poseidon for clues and hard(er) facts then have previously been obtained.

The basic concept is a university professor with a fair amount of field work. He's got a ton of experience on the ground on Earth but non on Poseidon. This doesn't mean that he hasn't studied up and that he doesn't know anything about survival but he's just got enough to maybe keep himself alive. His real strong points are his textbook knowledge of life sciences and chemistry. For the group he is the nominal "head" charged by the GEO with assembling this team although ironically he doesn't have really any aptitude for leading people he's truly a researcher at heart and this assignment is a dream come true. Initially he was a pre-med student before discovering his love of research but his medical knowledge has been an asset in the field more often then not.
