Trink

Trink was raised on the jungle world of Ithor, and all though he studied nature as all his kind do, he found himself contemplating the stars. When he was old enough to leave Ithor he took to the sky and looked back at the tiny green world he was leaving behind. He travelled the galaxy taking time to investigate differing natural environments on various alien worlds but always he found himself drawn between the twinkling beauty of the stars and the magnificence of the Ithorian jungle and the jungles of other worlds.

Trink made a name for himself as and explorer of space and a hunter of unusual resources on far flung jungle planets. He discovered rare herbs and spices carrying them to the core worlds to turn a handsome profit. In time he was able to outfit his own ship 'Wilds Path' the former cargo bay of the vessel was transformed into a miniature ecosystem created by the interaction of many strange and exotic plants collect from the far flung worlds of the galaxy.

In time he came to the world of Ganipres <View System> and was horrified by pollution, poverty and disregard for the natural order. He made several contacts among a pro-environmental group and began to smuggle them supplies each time he returned. His last visit troubled him most, he had never asked about what he smuggled for the 'Green Fringe', assuming food and medical supplies, but now they have weapons and bombs and have used them in acts of terror against the polluting stilt cities. Trink now questions the morality of what he's doing, but so far considers it to be for the betterment of the wilderness.
