Surret is one of almost two thousand sidewinder exotics grown by the Cargill-Baines Family in their labs on Eden, in the Tafferden system. Surret grew up in a Cargill-Baines creche on Eden, and spent his early career working as a driver in the outback of Billingsley Island. He emigrated back to Fennen, hoping to find work planetside, but was refused entry clearance by the Fennen government. He is now living among the stations of the Atlas moon system, looking for work or passage back to Eden.
Patisse is one of the less-luminous members of a prominent Crew family from the Gagarin orbital stations. He is a weedy sort with a quick voice who holds a prominent position as Senior Supply Planner for the Gagarin Industrial Procurement Cooperative Bureau. He has been abusing his position for years, ensuring that a group of his old school chums receive lucrative GIPCB contracts. In gratitude, they kick back substantial sums to his own pocket.
McCranie is a dock supervisor on Kerr Station in Chenoir orbit. He has a bit of a gambling habit, but the deals he's made with some "friends" have been more than compensating for his losses. He knows a lot about station dock operations and cargo procedures, and spent a stretch in the Kerr Station Self Defense Force when he was younger.
Lydia Mreke was born outsystem, and has spent most of her life on ships flying deep-range missions on the borders of colonized space. She hasn't spent a lot of time in the Fennen system. She is the Head Pilot of the Gallwae Star, a deep probe that has spent almost two years prospecting in the Arkalight system. The Gallwae Star has recently been forced to head for Fennen after a severe engine failure.
Isaac Kerezosky is a brawler. Never a truly productive citizen of Lyselle Orbital, he has drifted from one correctional facility to another, a trail of beatings and brawls in his wake. He's really a bad guy to mess with.
Andrea Toll is a wildcard for the Toll Family. She spent her early career running interface craft down onto Fennen's southern continent on smuggling runs. She made it through almost thirty runs until a "misunderstanding" between her Family's negotiators and the Trapper Caste who met them resulted in a bloodbath that Toll only barely escaped.
After that, she told her superiors that she wanted a different assignment. They have placed her on Vincelle Station as a go-between, in charge of routing cargos through station security. Hers is quite a responsible position, requiring that she act as a liason among station Customs, Security agents, dock officials, ship crews, and others.
Charles Batanga is a dangerous radical. He has been an organizer for the Confederated Orbital Technical Workers' Union (COTWU) for years, and legitimately believes in the power of organized labor. Unfortunately, unionization doesn't have a good history in the Atlas moon system, especially after the Steering Committee methodically smashed the Labor Syndicate 60 years ago. Batanga is the veteran of many vicious government crackdowns, and his organizational techniques have developed to reflect that. He doesn't do much collective bargaining, but he is an effective saboteur.
Sika Vinh Nuoc volunteered for the Lagash Prefecture's Induced Psychic Program when he was twenty, hoping to gain insight into the sadurtha mind by taking their psychoactive drugs. The treatments gave him the telepathic powers he had hoped for, but also made him hypersensitive to the presence of others. He is still fascinated by the sadurtha, and dresses like one as much as possible. He is also an addict of the sadurtha drug cy'apopa.
