CMDR Bow Lof Petunias specializes in stellar cartography, remote cosmic exploration and prospecting on behalf of a tiny independent operator Scarce Enterprises Ltd. As a now former Hutton Trucker, Bow assisted the Co-operative with the liberation of the Epsilon Indi system. His galactic wanderlust also saw him deliver Galactic Travel Guides to Colonia and become a founding member of the HotCol faction as humanity’s presence grew towards the center of the Milky Way. Having experienced four or five tours of duty between Colonia and The Bubble which included the Distant Worlds 2 expedition; HAX Wing’s defense of humanity from the alien aggressor; and the Phileas Fogg inspired ‘Around The Verse in 80 Days’ long distance time trial, Bow found himself craving new challenges and new surroundings.
Paying it Forward: The Buurian Protectorate
After parting ways with the Hutton Orbital cooperative, Bow committed a portion of his now significant personal wealth to the commissioning and deployment of his Fleet Carrier 'Chrysaetos Refuge' as part of the Deep Space Support Array network. You can find the 'Refuge moored in the Aquila’s Halo region, proudly serving those explorers who wish to experience the profound solitude of the void and it's amazingly rare life form encounters for themselves.
The Chronicles Expedition / The Canonn Challenge
His insatiable wanderlust took Bow on an extensive voyage of discovery known as The Chronicles Expedition, based upon the very first published route of the Canonn Challenge. One Commander, a Diamondback Explorer and a Scarab SRV in a solo endeavor that would stretch the skills of the most accomplished explorer. Bow completed the Challenge in a voyage lasting 195 days, encompassing 113 waypoints and 194 unique encounters via 29 galactic regions. He has seen things other commanders would not believe, suffering unfounded claims of record tampering and manipulation.

Currently Bow can be found operating short term commercial contract opportunities all over the galaxy and attempting to ignore the call of the sirens of the void.
