Ruby Maxim...

Hailing From: Moloko
Occupation: King-size Bounty Hunter
Enjoys: alcohol, exercise, vigilante justice, polishing

Ruby is much, much larger than the average Earthling in several respects. In Earth measurements, she’s about nine feet tall and weighs slightly over a quarter tonne — she is, however, just modest enough not to quote any of the more intimate measurements, all of which are equally enormous. After an introspective session brought on by the time-honored Moloki tradition of binge drinking, Ruby decided to indulge in another time-honored Moloki tradition — extreme body augmentation. Her mechanical upgrades have given her a distinct edge over most competitors, as well as endowing her with the ability to turn any small, enclosed space into a steam sauna. While this may seem strange to Earthlings, it’s actually a fairly common elective procedure among the inhabitants of Ruby’s home world, of whom nearly half are cyborgs.

Conscripted into the Tri-Galactic Federation’s space fleet upon reaching adulthood, Ruby became familiar with the crown prince during her training. Sharing a passion for bounty hunting, the two were frequently seen socializing until an undisclosed altercation caused a falling out. Ruby resigned from the space fleet after completing her requisite three years, though she still wears her standard-issue cap to signify her allegiance. It is unclear whether her relationship with Prince Julian remained strictly professional.

Ruby was formerly employed by the Garritan military to aid them in their mission, but was presumed dead and replaced by the mercenary Beatrix Quenelley after an extended lapse in communication. She would like more than anything to have a real friend with whom she could relate, but tends to scare them away before she has a chance to really open up to them. She has an uncanny ability to destroy almost everything she touches.
