Wolfgang E. Meyer

**Wolfgang E. Meyer** is a main character in the **Interstellar Overdrive** storyline. He is played by **crow#2337.**

## Description

Wolfgang has dark blonde hair from his mother's side, scraggly and parted in the middle.  His beard rides high across his cheeks before becoming sparse closer to his chin, and then thick again.  He rocks long sideburns and a thick mustache disconnected from the rest of his beard.  His low, bushy eyebrows and pensive stare cause him to come across more aggressive than he is.  Weathered by the long years of bounty hunting and planet hopping, he isn't exactly an angel to look at.

His most notable attire is a worn brown B3 Bomber jacket with a bushy fur collar.  He changes his shirt frequently, usually opting for either a lightweight t-shirt or a collarless polo.  At most times outside of the ship he wears an insulated, padded G-suit that ends at the wrists and the neck.  Over the G-suit he wears knee-pads, ankle-high boots, his bomber jacket, and insulated gloves.  A helmet with an oxygen tube connects to the top of the suit and gloves attach to the wrists.

## Personality

When regarding "nature versus nurture," Wolfgang's personality leans heavily towards nature: while Dexter was known to be very compassionate and friendly, the North lineage is known to be rather cold and detached.  Bethany North, Wolfgang's mother, has frequently told him that he is "very much like [his] grandfather"--hot-headed and impatient.  Of course, she'd always say that in the nicest way possible.  Although there isn't much love to be given, Wolfgang is fiercely loyal and a strong leader when need be.

## Background

Born and raised in Casper, WY to Dexter Meyer and Bethany “Scout” North, Wolfgang was primarily raised by his father.  Due to Beth’s close association with a mysterious entity known as “Mother,” she was captured by the NAR after Wolfgang’s birth and held as a prisoner until forced to be used as an assassin for the NAR.  However, Beth eventually broke free from the bonds of the NAR and overthrew Jimmy Cruz along with the famous group of rebels.  The name “North” became rather famous, but the name “Meyer” never became quite as recognized.

The lack of a proper education and credentials meant that Wolfgang’s only qualifications were for entry-level jobs.  Despite this, Scout taught Wolfgang how to fly GA aircraft, leading to a passion for flying and eventually space piloting.  Originally intending to be a freighter, most freight companies required at least some education in order to be hired.  Therefore, Wolfgang ended up doing a lot of commission work until joining a gang of bounty hunters as a pilot.  Things with them eventually fell through after the leader decided to take a majority portion of a large reward, resulting in the gang splitting in two and a battle between the two parties ensuing.  Nearly the entire gang was killed except for a few members who all went their own way.  Wolfgang returned to Wyoming (approximately aged 23).

Not long after Wolfgang returned to Wyoming, he became bored and despondent with civilian life and decided to resume his life as a bounty hunter.  He contacted Cassie Ambrose, one of the surviving members of the previous gang, and formed the Meyer Gang along with associate Elliot Castillo and Jackie Angelo.  The Meyer Gang has been completing low-profile bounty contracts since then.
