Race
Racial abilities from the Vesk race:
 * Armor Savant Vesk use armor in a way that complements their uniquely sturdy physiology. When wearing armor, they gain a +1 racial bonus to AC. When they’re wearing heavy armor, their armor check penalty is 1 less severe than normal.
 * Fearless Vesk receive a +2 racial bonus to saving throws against fear effects.
 * Low light vision Vesk can see in dim light as if it were normal light.
 * Natural Weapons Vesk are always considered armed. They can deal 1d3 lethal damage with unarmed strikes and the attack doesn’t count as archaic. Vesk gain a unique weapon specialization with their natural weapons at 3rd level, allowing them to add 1–1/2 × their character level to their damage rolls for their natural weapons (instead of just adding their character level, as usual).

Feats
Coordinated Shot You can maneuver a foe to be in the direct line of an ally's fire. When you are threatening a foe with a melee weapon, any ally that has line of sight to that foe without you granting that foe cover gains a +1 bonus to ranged attack rolls against that foe.

Weapon Focus (Advanced Melee) You gain a +1 bonus to attack rolls with that weapon type. If your base attack bonus is at least 3 lower than your character level (or your mechanic’s class level, if you are a Drone), you gain a +2 bonus instead.

Close Combat When you hit an adjacent foe with a melee attack, as long as you are adjacent to that target, you gain a +2 circumstance bonus to your AC against attacks from other creatures that are not adjacent to you until the beginning of your next turn.

Management Role
Entertainment You have a knack for putting on a great show. You can use your profession skill(s) as your Intimidate or Diplomacy skill checks instead. This can also be re-rolled once per session using the profession skill.

Appearance
Standing 7-1/2 feet tall, Atvar is exceptionally large for a Vesk. Amongst his own people he is known for his distinctive snout, although non-Vesks have a hard time differentiating members of his race.

Personal Life
In his spare time, Atvar enjoys collecting antique overhead projectors, working out, tests of physical strength, and driving his own fully restored classic Murder-Pod (before it was repossessed). Atvar was a highly known and desirable bachelor back on his home planet.

Pre-Crew History
Atvar appeared on the extremely popular infosphere program Veskian Gladiator for 7 seasons as the gladiator known as Blitz. The Blitz action figure was incredibly popular lagging only behind the Scwhartz Lightning figurine. Atvar also appeared as Blitz on the 132nd season of Dancing with the Idols where he made it into the final four pairings before being eliminated, none other than Scwhartz Lightning and his partner won the show, along with the million credit prize. A cannibalism scandal rocked Veskian Gladiator while it was in post-production for season 8, leaving all the cast members disgraced and unemployed with the exception of Scwhartz Lightning who left following the 7th season. Atvar invested most of his fortune into Murder-Pod Racing, a venture that he lost all of his money when the racing league went under. Now desperate for credits, he is willing to take on any work, even that which may not be on the level.
