OBISPLOVOX KELBA'FLOREZ

Obisplovox Kelba'Florez: Given the nickname "Obispo" by Kort Villikon, he was a second generation Itascan, son of an exiled expatriate, and great grandson of Tebucio Kelba'Florez, also known as Bucho. Bucho Florez was a celebrated space pioneer, skilled pilot, and infamous privateer. Villikon was comfortable with Obispo because he was the spitting image of Bucho, whose portrait was very familiar to Villikon from the annals of history. Obispo followed Villikon on a pilgrimage for escape from Itasca. After Villikon was exonerated, he sponsored Obispo's appointment to the Imperium's Flight Academy. It was there that Obispo excelled in the studies of Combative Arts, Histories of War, and Evasive Flight Maneuvers. Obispo's aptitudes for academia were far superior to students with twice his education. He graduated several years ahead of his class, and was commissioned by Villikon to serve as the pilot of Omophore II. Obispo was killed when Omophore II challenged Prophet Oseiden's Triassic Nazareth, which was a vessel refortified impervious by the Saunt-Sosie with Baltic Siam, the most powerful element in infinite space. Obispo married while in the academy and fathered twin sons. Kort Villikon was their Godfather.
