Dante

Chief Medical Officer

7'3" tall crocodile man complete with tail.

Despite his looks, Dante is the sweetest and most gentle guy. He understands that his appearance scares people so he goes out of his way to counter act it. About 99.9% of the time, he wears jeans, modified cowboy boots (to fit his clawed feet) and funny slogan t-shirts (suggestions for slogans welcomed) under his lab coat. To date, his favorite shirt (he's had to have it remade several times over the years) reads "Joke'em if they can't take a fuck."

Being of reptillian nature, Dante is quite naturally affected by cooler climents. As no one outside of his own race is able to pronounce his real name, the crew of the Vextis gave him the nickname "Dante". His med bay (no one argues to the contrary), is kept at a rather warm one-hundred plus degrees to help him maintain his body temprature, thus earning it the rather dubious name of "The Inferno".

Dante is a rather accomplished diagnostition and research specialist, almost scarily so. His abilities with the sick and injured border the miraculous though, if it is mentioned, he will often deflect his accomplishments to his head nurse and wife, Melone Seno ("Red"). His most difficult failure to date is his constant inability to find a cure for his wife's race, the Orian.
