Description
Lieutenant Shore "Pi" Pibald is a demolitions expert and enthusiast.
Bio
Pi was first mentioned when Captain Tagon confused Petey's mention of pi (3.14159...) with Pibald's nickname. He mentioned that Pi should be on medication 2002-07-03, presumably for his megalomania and mild paranoia.
When Pi first appeared in person, he claimed to be able to perform a brain transplant with nothing but safety scissors and a drinking straw 2004-01-30.
After the death of Pronto, the Toughs' previous demolitions expert, Pi was very eager to receive the job, submitting 59 applications 2007-06-26. It was then discovered that he had created an "ant farm" in which the "ants" were Boomex-producing macro-, micro-, and nanobots 2007-07-04.
When the //Touch-and-Go was captured by the Morokweng,// Pibald appeared to die with the last words of "Don't take another step or I'll blow us all to the Kumquat Kingdom!" 2008-01-06. He survived, however—presumably thanks to the battleplate's gravitics. He was promoted to Lieutenant in the aftermath of the Toughs' being implanted with false memories 2008-02-17. He did not realize that he had been made red-green colorblind as petty revenge for his Kumquat Kingdom bomb [2008-03-08 - 2008-03-13].
Despite his mental instability, Pi has been shown to have the ability to make solid intuitive leaps. He correctly surmised the nature of Credomar 2009-12-11 and guessed the reason that the RedHacked Balt Binion was preferentially dealing head trauma 2012-06-26. He also has a keen sense of smell 2013-10-24 and is an excellent shot 2012-11-12.
