Jeltor

Species: Jotun

TVC 03/8 Jotuns were purple blobs with wavy arms and two very bulbous eyes. Jeltor’s body looked like a clump of jelly that was about to burst and spill every which way. Barnabas, in mind-reading him, even thought that his mind/thought felt like jelly as well. Body will pulse faintly blue in happiness. (TVC 03/21) Will turn faintly turquoise when worries. (TVC 04/1)

TVC 04/1 Jeltor Howauc was his full name, Commander, Jotun High Command. Wife, Lillik (348 years old, hardly into middle age), two children.

Jeltor was incredibly vain. The Jotun species clearly thought they were superior to all other alien races, taking great pride in their intellect. If Barnabas were to question this one, the alien would be insufferable and take great joy in talking circles around Barnabas. He had already gotten the sense that it masked its true thoughts by concentrating on inconsequential things while he was around. Needs a robotic suit to survive in normal space (lived in seas on home planet). Shinigami thinks Jean Dukes will enjoy having this information, for future weapons/armor development.

TVC 03/17 Jeltor's suit, set for battle: Jeltor activated his suit. The hands slid back to be replaced with double-barreled guns, one bayonetted. Pieces of the suit hummed with an electrical charge, a plate came down over the capsule that held Jeltor’s body, and the suit seemed to sink down into a mechanical version of a warrior’s crouch. To top it off, a panel slid to uncover a long, thin arm in the suit’s chest, with a hacking-tip at the end.

TVC 03/21 Jeltor had convinced the Jotun Navy to send all of their information to Barnabas, so that he could pinpoint the Yennai base. He also fought at the base, distinguishing himself admirably.

TVC 07/01 Jeltor was now a "revolutionary", an informant against his own government, with the blessings of the Jotun Navy. He had first realized some of his errors when he began to interact with other species and found them to be not the brutish savages he’d been told, but intelligent—and even dangerous.The final straw had come when he was taken hostage by pirates. Rescued by a human named Barnabas, Jeltor had learned the Yennai Corporation, which had infiltrated the Jotun government and was seeking to become the dominant power in the entire sector. Far from fighting it, the Jotun Senate was allowing this and looking the other way. Jeltor had been accused of treason for standing against the Yennai Corporation.He hadn’t wanted to be a revolutionary. He’d simply stood for what was right, and somehow that had made him one.
