History: Born on the planet B3K in Cluster 13, Stanley Tweedle started his career as a low-level security guard for the League of 20,000 Planets. Often cowardly and inept, he found himself in bizarre and dangerous situations due to his association with the Lexx, a bioengineered planet-destroying spacecraft.

Stanley's life took a dramatic turn when he stole the Lexx, becoming its accidental captain. Initially driven by self-preservation, he grew into his role over time, developing unexpected leadership qualities. Despite his flaws, Stanley formed deep connections with his fellow crew members, including Zev/Xev, Kai, and 790.

His loyalty to his friends, as well as his genuine desire to do what's right, frequently clashed with his cowardice and self-interest. These contradictions added depth to his character as he navigated the cosmos aboard the Lexx, encountering a myriad of strange and dangerous worlds and beings.

Accessories: As the captain of the Lexx, Stanley has access to the immense power of the ship itself. The Lexx's primary weapon is a powerful planet-destroying beam. The ship also houses various chambers and compartments, some of which provide the crew with life-sustaining resources and defensive capabilities.

Despite his flaws, Stanley's presence aboard the Lexx adds a touch of humanity to the surreal and often surrealistic universe of the show.
