Sho

Sho (The Exile) is a Ship leader in Master of Orion.

Background
Sho was sentenced to death by fire for crimes against the Grand Marshal when he smuggled off-world movies and “entertainment propaganda” onto Draconis. He barely escaped by smuggling onto a shuttle to Sun Reacher Station, where he bargained his way onto an off-world trade ship. His loyalty to the Fiefdoms is dead, and he relishes the opportunity to learn from the strange aliens and satisfy the curious nature that nearly got him executed.
