Name: Angren Ture

Alias: "Medicine Man"

Ship Duty: First Mate

Planetside duty: Editorialist/Librarian/Information Broker

Height: 6'

Weight: 220 lbs

Age: ???

Appearance: Loose brown hair, wiry build, Riker beard (with gray streaks).

Hits: Reading, debates, coversation, exploration.

Misses: Boors and psychopaths.

Weapon: A bastard sword infused with environment-variant dust called "Valarauco", complemented by a collapsible buckler. On his journeys, he carries a crossbow capable of great accuracy at long range.

Personality: Though impatient, sarcastic, and easily irritated, Angren is a reliable source of information, a skilled mediator and a steadfast friend. Many newcomers are often put off by his blunt personality, but eventually respect him. Angren is very long-lived, and is therefore very knowledgeable, but he prefers not to intervene in matters not his own. If there is fighting to be done, Angren often prefers to leave it to those who actually enjoy it, though in a pinch he is quite dangerous.

Angren is often referred to as an intellectual, a label that is very accurate indeed. When the ship crashed, Angren mae it his first reponsibility to salvage any and all data from the ship, including the AI (note: Angren is the only one who has ever succesfully made T.O.M.M. mad). Although he deeply enjoys reading, Angren is by no means bookish. During his considerable lifetime he has made many long journeys, often for no other reason than to verify or disprove a local myth and satisfy his curiosity.

Angren is a pragmatist--he has few overbearing ideals, and his only lasting loyalties are to those whom he knows personally. Angren is a good friend of Ozpin's, and the two often engage each other in intellectual sparring matches. While not as dedicated to the law as WC-83, and willing to work around it if necessary, Angren reserves a special loathing for cultists, anarchists, and other fanatics.
