Attributes

Walker is described as "wiry" as he stood about 5-foot-8 and weighed approximately 140 pounds. He is further described as having a nose that was badly broken in an altercation resulting in his subsequent conviction for rape and murder.
Personality
Initially, Graves appeared to be a person of great control. While waiting for the interrogator, she sat completely still for about three hours barely blinking. However, while interrogating Graves, Commander Lowell described her has having a cold blue eyed stare. She calmly and flatly described the attempted rape situation that led her killing Fred Noble which was unlike the normal response for a rape victim. She showed no remorse, was calm and methodical showing no emotional response.
Skills
Walker is considered to be one of the best cruiser-class pilots in the Planetary Union Navy. After his final piloting trials, he was accused of rigging the system because he scored off the charts in all reaction-time and subconscious physics processing tests. Walker is the only candidate to have passed the test, yet been forced to take it a second time. At the second trial he scored even higher than the first. The tests scores were re-calibrated afterward and Walker's scores set the benchmark for a perfect score.
Crimes
Walker was tried in a secret military tribunal for the murder of two children, and the rape and murder of a civilian. Walker was convicted and given an opportunity to have his record expunged if he served two years aboard the Keeling.
