Campaign Use: Malcom is the captain of the Firefly Class Transport Serenity.
Personality/Motivation: Malcom Reynolds used to believe in a lot of things. God, justice, deceny, human goodness. Not anymore. He's a cold man now, doing what he needs to survive - or at least, that's what he pretends. He has surrounded himself with people who express and live the very things he wnats to deny existence too, and he is religious in his devotion to their safety and well-being.

Malcom is not a cruel man, or an evil man, but he is also not a paragon of virtue. He can be cowardly and weak-willed, and he values his own safety above moral codes - he's willing to kill an unarmed man if he thinks it's in his interest. But he generally does the right thing, and he can't stand to see power abused and the weak mistreated. He thinks his sympathy and mercy is his own downfall, not realizing it is his saving grace.

Appearance: Malcom is a tall, broad chested man with short brown hair, blue eyes, and typically heroic good looks.
Quote:"We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so...very...pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die."
Background: Malcom was born and raised in one of the many small farming communities that dot the moon called Serenity. When the war broke out, he joined up and quickly rose to the rank of sergeant, with a 30 man command. When the Alliance attacked in full force, at the now infamous Battle of Serenity (aka the Bloodbath of Serenity), Malcom found himself leading over 2000 men due to massive officer deaths. After the vicious battle, he had 400 men left..another 250 would die before the first Med Evacs arrived, with news of the collapse of the Indepent Resistance, and the final victory of the Alliance.

Malcom was heart broken, and couldn't accept the new order. Along with Zoe, his second in the war, and the only other survivor of hsi original unit, he bought a Firefly Class Transport. He assembled a crew, and now plys the space ways, finding honest work when he can, and turning to smuggling, illegal salvage, smuggling and robbery when he can't.
Powers/Tactics: Malcom is a natural leader, an ability forged in the fires of the Battle of Serenity, and a very capable hand to hand combatant and gunfighter.
