Name: Götz Rüppell

Alias: "Gyps"

Origin: Planet Altestal, Altgrün Galaxy

Occupation: Söldner (Mercenary), Space Corsair, Bounty Hunter

Ship: Sakrileg (Commanding the Schwarzer Bär sector)

Crew: Benno (Knoche), Franz (Ranzig), and his inseparable rooster, Lärm.

Appearance & Aesthetic

• Hair: Jet-black, slightly wavy, falling messily across his face. Bangs partially cover one eye, conveying a natural, effortless elegance.

• Face: Elongated features, sharp jawline, serious and melancholic expression. Cold, piercing gaze of a veteran who has made hard choices. Never smiles.

• Attire: A heavy dark leather long jacket with visible seams and reinforced padding. High black military boots designed for deck combat or long journeys. Sleek dark trousers built for agility.

• Signature Gear: A massive graphite-black shoulder armor piece with aged gold accents crossing both shoulders. A towering high-collared cape with a deep crimson interior and pitch-black exterior that billows like a banner. A wide, heavily strapped belt holding rigid holsters for his specialized weapons, including his modified French 18th-century flintlock pistol and a Grosses Messer.

• Companion: Perched on his shoulder or standing nearby is Lärm, a stark black bird-like creature with a striking yellow beak that acts as his vigilant watcher.

• Color Palette: Graphite black, steel gray, crimson red, dark leather, and aged bronze details.

Background & Lore

• Military Past: Former Commander (Fregattenkapitän) and later Commodore (Kommodore) in the Altestaler Seemacht (AS), leading long-range naval operations.

• Combat Style: Self-taught and brutally effective. Blending foundational elements of Kung-fu, Boxing, Muay Thai, Wrestling, BJJ, and Germanic Fencing with years of brutal boarding actions, duels, and survival tactics inspired by Krav Maga principles: survive, adapt, and neutralize swiftly.

• Beliefs: Deeply inspired by Qabbaláh. Celebrates Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, attempting to keep Kashrut when he remembers, and performing Kaparot—though it always fails because he has grown too fond of his rooster, Lärm.

• The Incident: While navigating past the "Hedda Nebula," a turbine malfunction on the right wing forced Götz to inspect it personally using the small reconnaissance capsule "Die Krippe" (accompanied by Lärm). Due to stress and unfamiliarity with the master console, crewmate Benno accidentally triggered a QS81 jump instead of auxiliary thrusters.

The Drift & New Horizons: Displaced 9.5 billion light-years away from the Schwarzer Bär sector, stranded in a sector with T Tauri "baby" suns, Götz's capsule was tractor-beamed by an unknown alien vessel. Encountering Kepala from the planet Unta Bulan (Gurun Bulan galaxy), Götz and Lärm embarked on a vast, uncharted journey across alternate realms, galaxies, and infinite stars—always ready for the next bounty.
