About
Science officer that entourages with the Tallests armada in his own ship, his job is to study and reverse engineer alien technology to make it viable for the Irken empire in some shape or form. He has little care for anyone and is entirely focused on his work.
Appearance
Sken is fairly tall for an Irken, coming up to the Tallest's shoulders when stood alongside them. One antenna has an extra 'scythe' on the tip of the first one, the other is half missing due to an explosion. He also has a scar over one eye that is dulled due to the same explosion. Both eyes are blue and his skin is the usual Irken-green. He wears goggles with a dark blue tint to them and a long white labcoat of sorts that has a small logo of the irken armada on the breast pocket and sharp shoulderpads - a very common uniform addition in Irken clothing. He also wears black trousers and black boots.
- Being left alone to work
- Dangerous alien technology
- Creating dangerous technology of his own
- His ship, as he has upgraded it a lot over time
- Soda, occasionally, though he finds the need for food and drink to be an inconvenience
- Anyone getting in his space
- The Tallest
- Being told what to do
- Being distracted from his work
- Simple technology
- The inconveniences of existing as an organic being (eating, drinking, sleeping, ect.)
"Sometimes suffering is necessary to learn. I would learn nothing without tearing things apart, seeing what they're made of - the same can be said for life."
Backstory
Sken was 'born' in the same way Irken young usually are and had a fairly usual youth for his specias, his time spent mostly being digitally fed knowledge via his pak or studying things in his own time. As he grew, he found others offered him more respect and though he had little care for such things, he knew it could come in useful. Positions only offered to those that were considered 'elite' were now a possibility, the presumption of status because of height ensuring he'd get a prestigious space in the armada. Initially his assignment was on the Tallests ship, merely as a navigator but his skills with technology allowed him to excel further and eventually gain not only his own ship but a specialized position as the science officer - allowing him free reign to study alien technology.
