Conversions

Fantasy

Cidi could be an interesting substitute for (or adjunct to) Ellyon or other "small races," especially with their racial hatred of being patronized. Add Poisons skill, Animal Handling (probably "dogs" or "cats" or some other suitably-sized riding beast), Riding, and maybe a language or two. Replace weapon-skills with suitable low-TL equivalents. Maybe add a few languages.

Modern

Perhaps Gunther is after an intergalactic criminal who has gone to ground, and he's pursuing? Or maybe the Cidi are invading Earth . . .

Near Future

Gunther is a bioengineered creation, probably meant for espionage work (and/or sabotage) - replace Savoir-Faire: Military with Intelligence Analysis. Replace Force Shield and Force Sword with suitable lower-tech equivalents. Add Electronic Operations (Security Systems).

Background: Formerly served two years in the Cidi military before getting out and becoming a bounty hunter.
