Orion Halley

## Backstory

Dr. Orion Halley just received his doctorate two months ago and is debating taking a post doctoral appointment at the local university or continue waiting on hearing back about his membership with the star finder society and a chance to sign onto a research ship. (So he is not currently employed) Isn’t sure what to do because staying on Absalom is safe and he’d get to stay close to his family, but going out into space is his life’s dream. (Of course he won’t get a choice when he meets the rest of the group)

He is actually becoming a living incarnation of the god Ibra, but is too busy to notice. He often causes magical incidents that he does not realize that he is the cause of. Very smart but also kind of a dumbass.

He was born on Absalom station, an identical triplet, and was adopted by his two mothers. He has four more adopted siblings. His family has worshiped Ibra for generations, and while he’s not a strong believer he participates in most traditions. Had an aptitude for medicine at a young age, partially influenced by his healing magic. When he got to college as pre-med heated it and switch to physics.
