Background

Torvi served eight years in the elite SpaceWolf Marine Corps, specializing in long-range reconnaissance and elimination. During a classified operation gone wrong, her unit was abandoned by command, leading to her discharge under “unfavorable circumstances.” She parlayed her technical skills and military discipline into engineering work aboard independent cargo vessels.

Personality Traits

• Steady Under Pressure: Years of sniper training taught her patience and precision

• Fiercely Loyal: To her crew and ship, having learned the value of chosen family

• Pragmatically Moral: Will bend rules for survival but won’t cross certain lines

• Dry Humor: Uses wit to defuse tension and maintain crew morale

• Protective: Former military instincts make her the ship’s unofficial security

• Marksmanship: Still practices regularly; keeps a modified plasma rifle in engineering

• Zero-G Combat: Trained in shipboard and EVA combat situations

• Systems Integration: Specializes in making incompatible tech work together

Equipment & Gear

• Modified EVA Suit: Orange contractor suit with military-grade life support upgrades

• Personal Sidearm: Compact rail pistol, military issue

• Engineering Tools: Extensive collection of improvised and black-market equipment

• Sniper Rifle: Hidden in engineering bay - a memento and insurance policy

• Wolf Tags: Still wears her military identification despite discharge

Current Situation

Works aboard the Rusty Compass, a converted military transport now used for “flexible cargo solutions.” The ship’s cargo manifests don’t always match what’s actually in the holds, but Torvi doesn’t ask questions as long as the credits keep flowing and no one gets hurt. She’s earned the crew’s respect through her ability to keep their aging ship operational against all odds.

Relationships

• Captain Torres: Mutual respect, occasional tension over “cargo decisions”

• The Crew: Protective big sister figure who keeps everyone alive

• Her Past: Still haunted by the unit she lost and the command that betrayed them

“I’ve seen what happens when good soldiers trust the wrong people. These days, I trust my wrench, my rifle, and my crew - in that order.”
