His name has yet to be revealed in my comic, so for now I'm calling him Scruffy.
Scruffy is a space drifter who's clearly been around for a while, though he's cagey about how old he actually is. He works as a courier, because it gives him something to do with his time, and allows him to explore new places. He's a very earnest fellow, both easily excitable and very easily bored.
Scruffy has a slightly dodgy old ship full of various boredom-busting hobbies, such as musical instruments, classic movies, science experiments, and a surprisingly well-stocked kitchen for a bachelor. (Though he uses that inconsistently, and often forgets to eat.) He likes to collect random pieces of retro human tech, like vinyl record players, lava lamps, antique computers, and oversized music systems. He is also a highly skilled runeologist, and will experiment with various rune spells to the extent that he totally loses track of the time and forgets to sleep.
He wears his heart on his sleeve, and has a pretty broken brain-to-mouth filter, so he can really stick his foot in it at times. He's well-meaning, though, and often (quite unintentionally) charming.
