Primary Writer: ECSNorway

Notable Mundane Attributes

  • Rockhound: Owner and CEO of Rockhounds, Inc. Not really the founder of the asteroid-mining industry, but the man who made it work, and still makes it profitable for fen today.

'Wavium Abilities

None as of start of story

Quirks

  • Shameless Yankee: Maintains American citizenship, pays taxes, votes.
  • Cat Person: Quite fond of cats.
  • Shut Up, Pinko Commie Traitor! Absolutely despises socialism in any form beyond the small group level. Once got into a lengthy screaming row with Natalie Baker about this at a con.
  • I need my space: Hates living in close quarters, one of the primary motivations behind his decision to use Greenwood as his primary residence. (Indeed, guests at said facility have said that even the budget hotel rooms there make crew quarters on the Enterprise-D look cramped.)
  • Governor of the State of... At the last con, one particularly obnoxious fan was heard to bellow at him, "You like the 'danelaw so much, why don't you go ahead and apply for statehood? Make it all official?" And he just smiled and said, "Not yet..."
