| Physical Description | Quite imposing. Considering his height, girth and his booming voice, Curtiss has little trouble making sure he's both seen and heard. Very muscular for his size, but still beefy. Can hold his own with most any foe in hand-to-hand. Soft expressions when socializing, but can turn aggressive quickly. He's the first to get up and stop a brawl, and the first to end the fight... no matter who started it. Deep, slow Southern drawl. |

He has served in front-line Security units and spent time at Starfleet Academy as a combat instructor. Very religious.

| Strengths & Weaknesses | + Incredible Marksman, both pistol and rifle. + Survivalist, and survival trainer for Starfleet. + Tactical awareness, both internal and external. Has a supreme understanding of battle postures and maneuvers. +/- Follows his orders to the letter. Exactly. - Slightly Xenophobic. Particularly for the humanoids whose appearances isn't close to human. (ie: Xindi (reptilian and insectoid), Rigellian, etc.) - Not scientifically minded by any means. Has trouble understanding the impracticality of such abstract thinking, unless it applies to martial technologies. |
|
| Ambitions | To Command his own military vessel. Not interested in a Science ship that might troll the galaxy in search of knowledge, but a militaristic vessel that serves as a stalwart reminder that Earth and the new Federation of Planets should not be trifled with. | |
| Hobbies & Interests | Physical fitness training, survivalist training and military history. He is extremely proud of his military roots, dating back to the Buffalo Soldier's of old. |
