One of the many Zentradi who has integrated into life with humans, Lavnadim Orlodhari ('Lavhi' for short) grew up on the colony ships. His great interest in technology eventually led him to a career on ships--and his great interest in humans led him to a career on /Federation/ ships. A bit of a jock, he has plenty of hobbies and keeps busy, always seeking the new and interesting, but with a streak of decency that sometimes leaves him troubled by the wars humanity seems to always be fighting even nowHowever, he has chosen to do something about those troubled feelings, and now serves with the Three Ships Alliance in order to end the current wars and fight for something better for the Earth SphereHe would say he could not have come to this choice without the inspirtion of his partner and Captain, Eight York, but she would say she relies on his steadfast support as muchTogether they have seen the dark sides of the Federation and embarked on a path towards a new future.  He is always around to give the crew and people of the Ra Mari II what they need.

Lavnadim Orlodhari ('Lavhi' for short) grew up on the Macross colony ships, a first-generation born Zentradi rather than cloned. He is a visionary engineer, a fine warrior, and a stalwart ally to Terminal, just as he was to the Three Ships Alliance. While his interest in humans led him to the Earth Federation's Londo Bell task force, where he served with distinction, he left with the rest of the Ra Mari's crew, having overseen the refit of the Ra Mari II himself. He served as Chief Engineer there for some time, but with the buildup of Magallanica and the formation of Terminal, he has shifted gears. Now he is the Head of Engineering for the Magallanica Defense Force, a position that gives him a chance to put his many ideas into action but also to spend more time with his young family. Husband to the MDF's top Admiral, Lavnadim does his best to give his wife, his children, and everyone who counts on him what they need to operate at their best.

Background

Growing up in the Colony Fleets with parents who were still adapting to the idea of 'relationships' and children, Lavhi from a young age had a love of the new and the unknown. Coming to understand 'culture', his parents worked to give him music, books, entertainment, and other examples of same, considering their own martial history as a bit of 'culture' of their own, but encouraging him instead to channel that physicality into sporting events. Accordingly while he is a warrior, he is primarily a technician, studying engineering and the function of things to indulge his endless curiosity.

It was a surprise but not a great one to his family when he joined Londo Bell, and his parents have found a bit of a conflict between pride that he is willing to be a warrior for his own purposes and concern that he is enmeshing himself in war even after all that's happened. He stays in regular contact with them, however. He was posted aboard the Ra Mari out of training, coming to a post as Chief Engineer. It was on this ship that he would meet Comms Officer Eight York, though when he asked her to dinner he did not expect things to go nearly so well as they did.

Over the course of that year, he would grow closer to Eight, and also grow in his own understanding of the political situation of the Earth Sphere. Late in 0096, he had the idea to begin salvaging an old Zentradi warship from the Denver Colony--a ship that would become the Ra Mari II with his refits.

He is its chief engineer, and endeavors to provide a solid foundation for the other crew to build upon.

A Typical Day (Back on the old Ra Mari)

Cheerful music plays over a small speaker nestled in the corner. The corridor's acoustics aren't terrible, but they aren't exactly designed for a show, either, but the small box the speaker's resting in does well enough to echo its music out. Consoles are open and wires exposed as Lavnadim Orlodhari works on the ship, whistling along with the music.

"Hm hm~" He rearranges wires, turns a few screws. He is working on this part of the ship, which has been experiencing lighting outages among other issues. His engineers have been stumped about what's wrong, so he's taken to handling it himself--and that's working out well so far.

"Sir?" A fresh-faced young worker pokes his head into the corridor, tilting his head in surprise at the scene; the large, green-skinned man humming along with peppy pop music. He's never seen a Zentradi in his element, being new to the ship.

"Yes?" Lavhi answers, reaching over to depress the 'pause' button on his player and looking up to the younger man. "Is there something that requires my attention?"

"Uh. No, sir. I just heard noise next to my station and was curious..."

"Ah! Do you like it?" Lavhi asks brightly. "The music helps me to think. Here, I am nearly finished; you may have it." Lavhi stands up from where he'd been working and picks up the speaker, little metal box and all, and presses it into the hands of the crewman.

"Oh--Uh--"

"There you are. This one is... Sheryl Nome! A very beautiful singer. You will enjoy her voice. You have my permission to play the music at your station. Now go, go."

"Yes, sir!" A little dazzled, the crewman takes his new prize and starts off back towards his station.

Lavhi, on the other hand, sits back down with his tools and gets to work. ...He can hum the music himself, at this point. He's heard it enough.

Resources

Lavnadim is the head of engineering for the Magallanica Defense Force and one of the most prominent enginers in Terminal. He has access to a lot of useful facilities and has standing deals with salvage supplies to get him various parts and equipment on top of Magallanica's resources, and is in a position to oversee many ships rather than one. He can fix most things he can get his hands on!

He has a lot of friends in a lot of places, particularly the Macross fleets, and is also a notable warrior on-foot.

He doesn't deploy in mobile suits or other weaponry as a rule, preferring to operate in the background, but he can help a pilot get the most out of their suit.
