About Pilot
Pilot is an independent entity, but he operates symbiotically with his Leviathan (Moya), and the upper half of his torso,
the part that we see, is the only part of him that is entirely his own. His much larger lower half is made up of neural
tentacles which thread through and fuse with Moya's systems. Pilot is, to Moya, some combination of operator, bodyguard
and partner. Because of this symbiotic fusing, he knows when she's scared, eager, excited, or sad, and he communicates
Moya's thoughts to Crichton and the others. He and Moya are made complete by their ability to serve the members of the
crew, but they are in no way obligated to follow the desires or needs of the crew if their own agendas disagree. Pilot is
most often polite and respectful to the crew of Moya, but it's clear that his loyalty is to Moya first and the others
second. When Pilot was young, the Elders of his world believed he was not ready to be joined with a Leviathan. A
Peacekeeper named Velorek ignored the Elders and offered Pilot a ship -- Moya -- and Pilot enthusiastically agreed. Pilot
didn't know when he accepted Velorek's offer that Moya's first Pilot was killed by a group of Peacekeepers that included
Aeryn Sun. Pilot still regrets his role in the death of Moya's first Pilot, but he and Moya have since put that tragic
incident behind them; he and Aeryn also have painstakingly rebuilt their friendship over time.
Pilot's Stats
Species - An Independent Entity Purpose - To be the pilot of the Leviathan, Moya. Other details - Pilot sits in his den aboard Moya, never able to roam free. He needs Moya to sustain his life as much as Moya needs him to do the same. He controls everything aboard Moya. From DRD's to door controls. Always a constant link to Moya's thoughts and feelings, he feels her pain, and follows what she says to do. He has grown attached to the crew members, especially Zhaan, who sacrificed herself to save Moya.
