Three years ago, Spike decided to abandon his past and strike out on a life of his own, so he left the Red Dragons (a Chinese Mafia group) and teamed up with Jet Black to roam the solar system in search of bounty and adventure. A lean, laid-back individual, Spike is nonetheless competent in his abilities. His idol is 20th-century martial artist and philospher Bruce Lee, and he is constantly practicing his own Jeet Kune Do skills. Combine this with proficiency with a handgun, and he is definitely not a man to mess with.
Though he doesn't really own it, Spike calls the Bebop home. Home life for Spike, though, is relatively tame. If he isn't practicing his martial arts, he's watching the TV. TV is the Space Cowboy's best friend because of Big Shots, a "Solar System's Most Wanted" for bounty hunters.
Spike is a man of many faces, on one hand he is very self-involved with his 'devil may care' attitude spreading mayhem and distruction in his wake. Just as quick as a blink he's switched to a caring and soft person, as much of a sucker for a hard luck case as Jet. Then just like a flowing river he's off again on another personality tangent of agressive behavior. Spike is much more than a two dimensional character, his personality has many sides that no one person ever sees.
