Age: 32 

Gender (if any): Male Pronouns: He/ Him 

Sexuality: polyamorous 

Species: At'ik 

Appearance: Stream stands at a daunting 7'1" with a wide strong frame. His arms are long and well built while his legs are shorter, he walks on the tips of his feet like many animals and has a thumb on his ankle which is used for grasping. His tail is nearly as long as his body and has thick padding on the underside. Stream's head closely resembles that of a dinosaur and he is covered in short curly fur. He wears a plain jumpsuit which he heard was standard for space travel, but he doesn't particularly like the tight fabric. 

Species Description: At'iks are a mammalian bipedal race and one of the few "intelligent" creatures on their planet. Their race was, until recently, quite tribal. In their culture names are usually phrases and they often wear scarce clothing made from animal hides, it wasn't until recently that another species colonized their planet and brought the idea of technology and space travel to them, luckily for the At'iks, they are very quick to learn. The At'ik adapted for life in the large trees of their homeworld, they are oftentimes very lightweight with hollow bones, their back feet are designed for grabbing onto tree branches and their long padded tails are prehensile. While their tails may not be able to perform small tasks, they can support and entire At'ik handing from a branch. The thick padding on their hands, feet, and tail is as touch as the soles of a shoe and are ridged, being able to grip onto anything with rough texture. At'iks are naturally predators and tend to form close bonds with a variety of people. They often stay in tribes no larger than 50 people and tend to be polyamorous with their own tribe members. Their short fur is oftentimes patterned with shades of blue or green, as the foliage on their homeworld is also brightly colored. 

Personality: The first defining trait of Stream is his silence. while he understands English, and his species are capable of speaking it, Stream simply does not speak. His vocabulary is mostly made up of soft grunts or chittering noises and whistles. Rarely he might say a short phrase, but you can count the times he had spoken on one hand, and that's only when all other methods of communication fail. He focuses mainly on gestures or actions rather than speaking. Despite all this, Stream is not as gruff as he may appear. He can be quite kind and gentle when given the chance and truly cares for others. Like most At'ik, he tends to form very close bonds with others, even if the feeling is one-sided. 

Short Bio: Decades before Follows-The-Stream was born, technology came to the small planet he lived on. His tribe, however, kept to their traditions and considered the colonizers evil. Stream, however, never saw it that way, and, as he grew older he found himself sneaking out of his tribe repeatedly in order to explore the technology his family so hated. Joining a space crew was a bit of an experiment. His teaching says that what he is surrounded by is evil, but he believes if he could prove that wrong to both himself and the tribe, that maybe progress could be beneficial.
