As his name would suggest, Griff Dedman is a man who has looked death in the eyes many times, and one who has always found a way to look away. Nearly killed in a starship crash at age three, Griff only escaped by crawling after fleeing passengers, even after his parents abandoned him (ironically they themselves perished). Hardened from the death in his life Girff is cold and and unfeeling. He us not the best pilot in the squadron, but not the worst either.
