Dillie Bee

A Medinan politician, businessman, and colonial administrator.

Personal

Dillie Bee is a smooth operator. He's a suave, dashing man in his early forties. He maintains a head of smoothly close-cropped shimmery black hair, brilliant white teeth, and meticulously plucked eyebrows. He often wears hip-hugging pants and an elaborate cape.

History

At some point in his youth Dillie Bee was a smuggler and pirate in his own right. But those days are long over. He's gone respectable. He's had supply problems and labor difficulties of every kind. The only connection to his past is the pirate Jethro Driver, who's butt Dillie Bee saved back at the Battle of Nataab.

Colonial Adminsitrator and Fighter Scandal

As one-half of the administrative team on Redemption, the joint Guardian-Medinan colony in Merge (the other being Guardian representative Tula Maestry), Dillie Bee is known as a capable, is somewhat eccentric administrator. The colony remains profitable, and Dillie Bee hoped to translate this success into higher office when he challenged Medinan Prime Minister Gorgon Wells in the Medinan Republican party's primary. Wells had lost a great deal of trust among his supporters, and Dillie Bee nearly won. He was sunk at the last moment by allegations of missing military hardware (mostly atmospheric and space fighters of Guardian design) from the Merge colony. He was accused of selling fighters on the black market for profit, though none of these allegations were definitively proven.

Political Future

Dillie Bee has stated he will run from Prime Minister again. With the fall-out from the Fighter Scandal fading from the public conciousness, he seems to be well-positioned for the next campaign.
