Profile: Bart is the helmsman of the Nirvana, and strangely enough, the only one who is able to move it. Though his skill at piloting the giant ship is miniscule at first, he eventually is able to control it with a fair amount of ease. Bart is generally very cowardly and unmanly, and tends to suggest running away from dangerous situations, especially in battle. His wimpy attitude and easily frazzled personality doesn't sit as well with the women on the ship. He also seems to have a crush on B.C., the sub-commander, although she seems to regard his feelings with relative indifference.

Bart is descended from a family responsible for putting out the "food" that is consumed in Tarak society - pills with varying colors. As such, he takes opportunities at times to use his heritage and knowledge of the pill industry to his own ends (usually ending in failure). While he is definitely not the ideal man, Bart eventually learns to show backbone in life-threatening situations for the sake of his friends and the Nirvana's mission to stop the Harvest fleet.
