A brief NPC description. I leave individual DMs to flesh out the statistics of the character, according to their own campaigns.
Kayadrich the Scavver-Mage (Chaotic Neutral Human Male Mage 10)
This creepy personality runs a salvage operation out of the Rock of Bral. From the command of his roving squidship Viper's Tears, Kayadrich seeks out space wrecks and scours them reusable material, favouring ship-to-ship weapons and spelljamming helms. He is a ruthless character, and will happily aid a profitable vessel along the path to being defined as "wreckage". He maintains a berth on the Rock of Bral, and his agent Caprazi can be found regularly in the Skull and Sword tavern. Caprazi is a psionicist, and telepathically informs Kayadrich of any leads if the mage is travelling wildspace.
However, Kayadrich's occupation isn't the cause of his infamy. His title as the as the Scavver-Mage, bears from his extraordinary magical speciality. Kayadrich has mastered a number of spells that he can use to control and summon scavvers, the void-travelling scavengers that hunt wildspace. He is always accompanied by his familiar, a runt-sized grey scavver named Rotfang. This small monster is no real threat to anyone, but Kayadrich has been known to suddenly summon a pack of larger scavvers, or even a huge Night Scavver from the depths of space.
Other characters in a SPELLJAMMER campaign can either be enemies or allies. Perhaps he is acting as a pirate, and raids the PCs ship. He might enlist their aid to salvage a particularly large prize. Kayadrich is of course an unmatched authority on the ecology of scavvers.
