Name: Thomas Torrez (prefers to be called "Tom")
Age: 30
Height: 6'
Weight: 180lbs
Build: Athletic
Eyes: Blue
Hair: Light Brown
Ethnicity: Caucasian
Background:
Thomas Torrez originally trained for service with the Alliance. His exceptional piloting skills were overshadowed by his rival and classmate Jeff Moreau, Mr. Torrez's proficiency scores being the second highest in every area. Rather than hold a grudge, Mr. Torrez used this rivalry as a source of personal motivation, always fighting to better himself (and one-up his classmate).
His service in the Alliance military was marred by his difficulty in dealing with the traditional chain of command, largely due to what he felt was insufficient appreciation of his considerable skills. Nevertheless, his commanders noted several instances in which it was his piloting alone which saved the ship. At the end of his first tour of duty, Mr. Torrez left the Alliance to find work in the private sector.
Mr. Torrez has been noted as particular in those jobs he takes, still holding firmly to the belief that there is good and evil in the world. He avoids jobs where he feels innocent parties will be wronged, despite the fact that his skills are typically contracted for by mercenary organizations. That said, he enjoys the greater pay and style of life his current status affords him.
He is currently contracted to pilot the Valiant.
Personality:
Mr. Torrez is arrogant, particularly where his piloting skills are concerned, but he is also noted as being friendly and "a charmer." When in the pilot's seat, his arrogance is deserved, but off-ship, it has been known to get him into trouble, particularly with aliens who do not appreciate his sense of humor. Those who can get past their initial impressions find a very kindhearted person who shares a deep sense of loyalty to those aboard his ship and those he feels watch his back for him.
