@Ndreare Work in progress but this is pretty close
Woolly Billy aka Billy Shag aka Marshal Bill
Seasoned Male Sasquatch, MARS Vagabond
Iconic Framework: MARS Vagabond
Background
Billy hides in plain sight with his "We Got Both Kinds" persona and band. He really plays up the sasquatch "myth" and overdoes it to the point that almost everyone thinks it is just a gag.
Sasquatche (the plural of Sasquatch, also see, "Mirage" of Sasquatche - Woollypedia) are mostly pacifists but Billy doesn't take too kindly to anyone mistreating those around him or letting innocent people suffer. He will break a pool cue when necessary.
Description
"Oh, maybe you ain't herd o'us. We're the Shagmuffins. We used to be the Shagwoolies and before that, The Shag Rangers and the Shagbaggers.
It's a gimmick but you'd be surprised at how many of the ladies go for -- HEY - WE DON'T OPEN FOR AN HOUR, THANKS!
Sorry. Anyway, we are here on Fridays and Saturdays til spring and then we take spring and most of summer to tour. We do unplugged shows 'round the fire at night sometimes, too. Depends on how good the smokes are.
Ya don't see none of them teenagers around here lately, dooya? All the time they're messin' with me - always hangin' around messin' with my stuff and leaving jerky wrappers everywhere. Anyway those kids should be learning how to contribute to society and not harassing their elders!
We could use another roadie. No? Well, I tried. It's the best life! Rex, give this guy a round on me and let me see if I can remember the chords to this one. Sit back and relax there, sonny."

Special Abilities
Animal Appearance: Sasquatch suffer a −1 to Persuasion.
Cyber-Resistant: They cannot take any Iconic Framework that includes cybernetics as an inherent ability (including the biocomp system needed to be a Juicer), nor may they roll on the Cybernetics benefits table.
D-Bee (Major): Initial reactions typically start at Unfriendly, or Hostile for human supremacists. Those with Unfriendly or lower Reactions refuse to sell wares or provide services such as healing, repairs, etc. Failed social checks with Hostiles often result in violence.
Natural Woodsmen: Begin with the Woodsman Edge and a d6 in Survival.
Low-Tech: They use simple melee weapons—including those that do Mega Damage like Vibro-Blades—and non-powered body armor. Most do not use guns, but a few make use of simple rifles. They dislike vehicles, choosing not to learn to drive and preferring not to ride inside of them.
Natural Psionics: Begin with the Arcane Background (Psionics) Edge and start with the following three powers: detect/conceal arcana, empathy, and mind link. If a Sasquatch chooses an Iconic Framework providing Arcane Background (Psionics), he follows all the normal rules for the Framework except three of his starting powers are the ones listed above (even if not normally allowed to that Framework) and the Sasquatch gains two additional power to his starting total (so a Sasquatch Burster starts with five powers, for example).
Near-Human Physiology: Those unfamiliar with Sasquatch biology are at a −1 penalty to Healing skill rolls.
Non-Standard Build: Sasquatch subtract 2 from Trait rolls when using equipment not designed for them, and can't wear commonly available armor or clothing, these items must be custom tailored at triple normal costs. Glitter Boy armor (and the Iconic Framework) isn't an option, neither is most power armor. Equipment and food cost double the listed price.
Pacifist: They are vegetarians. They have the Pacifist (Minor) Hindrance.
Powerful: Start with Strength d8 (Trait maximum d12+2) and Vigor d6 (Trait maximum d12+1).
Restricted Path: Cannot take any Arcane Background using PPE, nor any Iconic Framework that includes it.
Size +2 (Normal): Have a height of 9–12 feet. Their size grants them +2 Toughness.
Wild Men of the Woods: When in the city for more than a day, they grow irritable and depressed and suffer a −2 to all Trait rolls. They must make a Spirit roll every day to remain calm; if they fail, they must leave the city for the nearest natural habitat.
Psionics: Power Points: 20; Powers: Arcane Protection (Savage Worlds: Adventure Edition p148), Boost Trait (Savage Worlds: Adventure Edition p156; Limitations: One Aspect, Self (limited); Skill Bonus: +2), Detect/Conceal Arcana (Savage Worlds: Adventure Edition p158), Empathy (Savage Worlds: Adventure Edition p160), Healing (Savage Worlds: Adventure Edition p162), Mind Link (Savage Worlds: Adventure Edition p164-165), Sloth/Speed (Savage Worlds: Adventure Edition p167), Warrior's Gift (Savage Worlds: Adventure Edition p169-170; Limitations: Touch (limited))
