Trying to not look too eager or desperate Boris speaks up.

"You want know of Karl Steiner and Star Hopper, da? I tell if want. Only
require good beer." 

Boris knocks back the drink he was nursing while contemplating a bleak
future. 

"Am Boris. Pleasing to meet you" 

This mid-tall human with short black hair, blue eyes, and muscular build
holds out his callused hand to the nearest crew member to shake. He has a
couple of well used canvas and leather bags at his feet, nice slacks, and a
slightly wrinkled sport coat. The odservant among you note a pistol in a
kidney holster, a multi tool on his belt, and a Marine style cutlass grip
sticking out of one bag. A laptop sits on the table in front of him with
public ship arrival and departures on the screen. He also has some dirt or
something under his fingernails.
