#6 - Sayid Maathai, The martian environmentalist (personaggio interpretato da A. S.)
Motto: Mankind never learns, it is cursed with the urge to conquer - Work Group: Med-Lab Botanic Lab - Origin: Martian - unisex - Shift: Alpha
Teaser: As the shift's boss, Maathai is a confident, rational scientist; that’s how life should be approached, with a method as dry as Mars, the planet where S. was born, where nothing can grow. As a child, S. got fascinated by how humans were able to survive the inhospitable red planet without changing it. S. got into science and bothany, wanting to improve Martians’ life, but soon discovered it was an illusion: the big Martian dream was to destroy the real Mars, by terraforming it. S. thinks Martians are going to repeat the same mistake made on Earth: destroying the planet that made them great and independent. Maathai should have known better: that after all, Martians are just like Earthers: they are human. That’s the curse of mankind: never learning their lesson. S. is opinionated and blunt, to the point that S. has made no secret of such thoughts, resulting in being labelled a traitor to the Martian dream. But even as they think they are fighting the good cause against Earth, they are doomed to be as wrong as them.
Maathai might be cold and negative, but the truth is, this is no future. It is the past that keeps repeating itself, cultures dying, mankind struggling to survive.
Relations: Gabrys is just a weirdo with an obsession for naming things and a passion for drugs, but as long as it's not done during the shift and it doesn't affect their work or the team too bad (surprisingly, sometimes it has even proven to be... useful), it can be tolerated. Faulkner is a typical spoiled earther, too focused on ''here and now'' and too narrow minded about the future. Woo should stop chatting that much and work a little more without asking any more favors for so-called friends. Luna is a troublemaker who needs to be kept in check and reminded who is in control. Zarani has a similar vision of the universe as Maathai's; they get along well, but when they start talking, they can be absolutely boring.
Kassad needs someone from home to talk to and Maathai is not the judging type, so they chat quite often. Hates Dove, who was the first one to call Mathaai a ''traitor'', and is the embodiment of the Martian downfall. A similar mindset and brilliant conversation with Lagos formed a bond, but now this relationship is growing stronger and the other seems troubled by their own origins. Doesn't get along and had many heated discussion with Vodyakin about the ''martian dream''. Despite Linder being an Earther, they share a consideration for Belters' wellbeing and they have become good friends; this has caused some trouble with Frost a racist and jealous asshole. Higashi has called Maathai a traitor, but the commissioner isn't capable of even shitting without an order, imagine thinking for himself!
Keller is a sort of a friend. Maathai loves spending time together chatting and drinking.
#11 - Aaron Kassad, The boxer fighting for a future (personaggio interpretato da P. W.)
Motto: The pain you feel today will be the strength you feel tomorrow - Work Group: Leisure Workers - Origin: Martian - unisex - Shift: Alpha
Teaser: They say it’s all about perspective. Kassad’s history is no secret, and being dishonourably discharged from the MMC is a distinctive trait that makes this former Marine a loathed outcast for Martian people, and some kind of a hero for Belters. Working as a Trainer seemed like a perfect job: Kassad is still a very disciplined, tough and experienced fighter who takes physical health very seriously and really seems to enjoy training Belters and organizing boxing matches. Yet, A.’s personality is sort of a mystery, and although it’s unclear whether the Trainer is a very private person because trusting other people is an issue, or because of an unspoken sense of guilt, the only way to get to know Kassad is putting the gloves on and go up against the former marine in the ring.
Relations: T. Makimura is an old acquaintance: an asshole. Kassad tries to get along with both Kohler and Szyslack, who keeps a distance, but it's not easy. Vega is very nice, and they chat very often during work hours. Leandros was Kassad's Seargent Instruct back in the days, the gaze from every Martian is painful, but this one hurts the most. Sometimes Kassad needs someone from home to talk to and Maathai is not the judging type, so they chat quite often. Berg is a promising boxer, but the miner doesn't respect Kassad, or discipline in general, for that matter. Same goes with Luna, another plain racist. Anders is a better trainee, and a decent person to hang out with. Kassad is scared of Dove, who's been harassing the trainer since day one. Rozovsky recently took an interest in Kassad's training. Pan is a good person, they don't see each other that often, and it's a pity. Used to train Higashi, a committed and dutiful martian who now hates Kassad.
#20 - G. Caron, The former marine haunted by the past (personaggio interpretato da J. H.)
Motto: When will the voices quiet down? - Work Group: Comms and Radar - Origin: Martian - unisex - Shift: Alpha
Teaser: Every man or woman who served will tell you the same thing: it's hard to be something else when you give up being a soldier. The past haunts you with vivid dreams of atrocities, your mind gets filled with remorses and second-guessing. The ones who once respected you, turn their backs on you now. G. Caron knows this very well. After a tragic mission a couple of years ago, the former gunnery sergeant just wasn't the same, and could not honor the uniform anymore. But that wasn't the end of it: the soul was forever tainted by the past, and the scars failed to heal. The fear of flying is still there, and the sleepless nights as well. Now Caron tries to find some peace of mind as a radar operator on the rebuilt mining station. Handling communication with the outside world, trading messages coming from homes and families seems to bring some solace to this tormented soul. The shame in other martian's eyes is almost gone, and Caron holds a quiet and respected position in the new community. Perhaps this life could work out int the end. Perhaps Caron will be able to mend the wounds of the past... until the next time another nightmare will awaken the past.
Relations: On Mars Caron knew Higashi as a member of a family of dutiful martian militaries. When in the army Caron served together with Sobotka, and they both went through their share of hell. Caron had enough of it, and left the army to get hired on the Slingshot by D. Whedon but the two didn't get along.
Among the comm station colleagues, Ibanez is just a loud mouth: you can't find solace in all those empty words. Caron works well under Anders: a solid boss, keeping mind only to work, not distracted by silly gossips. Raisin seems to be driven by good intentions, but doesn't know when it's time to back off. Still, it would be nice to open up to someone, and the colleague is known to be a good ear but not a gossiper.
#24 - Nadia Eweli, An old hunter about to hung up the guns (personaggio interpretato da J. R.)
Motto: I've ground too much dust, friend. I will take care of the problem, but I had enough... - Work Group: Security Star Helix - Origin: Martian - unisex - Advices: Not recommended for very young players. - Shift: Alpha
Teaser: Eweli spent a lot of years serving in the Martian Congressional Police Force, and was indeed the embodiement of the perfect martian police officer. Then, over the years, all energy, passion and committment were slowly chipped away. After being honorably discharged from the MCPF, Eweli just wanted a small quiet corner, a place to find some peace and some fun with old friends. This particular place is a nice bar on Eros, and Eweli wanted to buy and run that place from the very first time N. laid eyes on it; but the owner wanted a lot of money to part from her lucrative business, and the savings were just not enough. So, even though Eweli was tired of chasing troublemakers and criminals, a job offer from the Belt suddenly made achieving that dream possible. Star Helix was willing to pay a lot of money to secure the services of a Martian veteran, and a year of work will provide more than enough to finally buy that bar and live a peaceful life. A tiny asteroid station should be an easy, almost boring assignment for a veteran cop, and that's what Eweli expects. But even here, one cannot simply forget things like sense of duty and respect for the badge, even when one is sick and tired of it, even if the mind lingers on the future: and the future is pouring fancy drinks to smiling people, without a single care in the world.
Relations: Nowak is a rookie, very similar to a young Eweli who chose to take the badge on Mars. Showing Nowak the ropes is surely a good way to give some meaning to all those years spent as a police officer on Mars. There is something strange about Ortega, and sooner or later Eweli will have to find out what. Dove is an old acquaintance from Mars, someone who follows orders no matter what. Having that officer on the station means trouble. Frost is a resentful, arrogant, self-righteous piece of shit, but one cannot question the captain's personality or position, or at least Eweli won't. Once heard Cheng's heated speech about individuality and thought Cheng was a weird martian; they have become friends since then. Szyslak might be interested in partnering up for that bar...
#26 - Idony Cheng, The stiff-ass Martian (personaggio interpretato da M. S.)
Motto: Be anything you can be. - Work Group: Reactor Room - Origin: Martian - unisex - Shift: Alpha
Teaser: Cheng is a hardworking and motivated engineer, with a strong ethic and skills. There is something martial in the way I. is serious about the job; Cheng is willing to do what needs to be done and will follow through even when faced with setbacks. Not exactly warm and friendly, even if not for a lack of effort, the engineer is a good team player, able to work cooperatively with coworkers, follow directions but also lead the team if called upon. Even when trying, somehow Cheng lacks the ability of being pleasant and accommodating; it's not just the rough personality, it's the constant anxiety from having to prove to be competent, and maybe the self-induced isolation of someone who had to struggle to climb the professional ladder. A little coy, the Martian engineer is also very private, and all about the job: Cheng keeps away from other Martians and their politics, trying to lay low and not be judged for being born on the Red Planet. The Belt can be a very harsh and racist place. Therefore, it comes as a surprise when the shy and workaholic Cheng randomly turns into a vehement advocate for free will, for making one’s own destiny, and for building individuality without anyone telling what to do or what to become. Such intensity makes wonder whether or not I. has achieved such independency, and, most importantly, what's in this Martian's past.
Relations: Guzman is brilliant and capable, but is also a bully; for now, Cheng has refrained from any retribution, and tries proving the other one wrong. Wolf is kind of weird, competent, but also curious and ready to jump right into unproven theories. Cheng helped the colleague during one of such experiments. Was one of those restraining Cruz aftthe attack on one of the bosses; despite this, they got along fine, as neither of them is a great talker. Resents Stella as is barely functional and is wasting away. Loves hanging out with Vega and always has warm attentions for the sex-worker, paying or not. Was heard by Eweli speaking about freedom and individuality while defending Vega from Dove; the two have been friends since then, but Cheng is now scared of having caught Dove's unwanted attention. Happend to overhear Russo and Rozovsky speak of the peace process and joined the conversation. Frost is just a bully but is powerful and mean, and Cheng prefers to lay low. Myeong was a good, old friend back on Mars, then they had a huge fight and lost touch. Hunt is a competent technician on some sort of personal crusade, and Cheng looks like one of the few who earned Hunt's respect.
#36 - Agathon Higashi, The dutiful Martian (personaggio interpretato da M. V.)
Motto: Red dust is heavier than earth, that’s why Martian Marines can withstand anything. - Work Group: Mars Commission - Origin: Martian - unisex - Shift: Alpha
Teaser: Higashi grew up in a Martian military family, led by the example of an older sister. She taught A. everything about commitment and duty to Mars, to the family, to improving the life of the people on their planet. Thanks to her, A. is honest, even blunt, always aiming for the best result: A. believes in being accountable, conforming to the highest standards, leading by example, and bearing whatever consequences orders might bring. That’s why, when the older sister killed herself, A. didn’t believe that for a moment: she was involved in some confidential matter regarding Earth and was killed because of what she knew. The world threatened to come down on Higashi, everything A. believed in shattered, if it hadn't been for the deep commitment to the only family the marine was left with: the MMC and its values. In fact, Higashi is known for being honorable, loyal and dedicated, to the point of often feeling isolated even among the Marines themselves, and sometimes being looked upon as an arrogant ass. Integrity might well be A’s middle name, but flexibility nor compromise have a place there. Rigor might be a double-edged sword when looking for the truth that A. knows is out there, buried under all that earther load of lies.
Relations: Is abashed on how Vodyakin is steering away from such a family legacy and that the other doesn't understand how important is the MMC to everyone's safety, both from Earth and OPA. Higashi tries to lead the other by example, as the other's ideas are not going to help, are dangerously seditious towards orders and the establishment. Dove is scary also for Martians, and even if obeying, Higashi keeps a respectful distance -even if they met in the past, as the other is preceded by the fierce reputation of a hound on the prey. Despite not knowing Suri very well, it's pretty clear this one is just an earthling playing Martian. Higashi openly despise the colleague and believes that once a turn-coat, forever a turn-coat.
Maathai is a traitor to Mars and the martian dream, it's a duty to uncover the other's rebellious plots.
Higashi was stationed with T. Makimura some years ago, a good marine who doesn't know how to behave. Kassad has been one of Higashi's instructor, but has become a digrace for Mars. Knows Caron back on Mars from some personal business and is anxious for a confrontation. Grudgingly respects Rozovsky, for an Earther and a politician seems clean enough and able to keep a given word.
#37 - Nefertari Vodyakin , A scientist who carries an heavy burden (personaggio interpretato da L. F.)
Motto: My future will be shaped by my actions alone, not by someone else's expectations. - Work Group: Mars Commission - Origin: Martian - unisex - Shift: Alpha
Teaser: Being the nephew of an important independentist leader has never been easy, and such a burdensome legacy can become unbearable sometimes. Every aspect of Vodyakin's life has ended up being compared to what ''good old Nikolay'' had achieved at the same age. At times, Vodyakin has felt crushed by the need of being spotless and perfect just to keep the family name unsullied, but has held steady and never cracked. One could say quite the opposite actually happened, as Vodyakin developed a great stubborness, and political views that are completely opposite of those of the Ruling Martian Elites. Vodyakin believes the red planet's leadership lost track of the true martian dream: it is definitely not turning the republic into a military nation. Using most of the planetary resources to fuel an unsustainable arms race will only crush the dream of making Mars a paradise. Now Vodyakin is capable and motivated enough, but backing those ideas with strong political action requires credibility. So, Vodyakin chose to prove commitment and worthiness through a difficult assignment, thus asking to be sent to a political and operational hot zone. Ending up on Icarus feels like that request was bluntly denied, but you can never know what lies under the surface of an apparently easy task.
Relations: Dove is sheer terror in person, a true embodiement of the actual martial doctrine. Suri represents the purest form of the martian dream. Being too close to such a controversial person could bear political risks, but Suri needs to be welcomed and encouraged, not cornered and branded. Nagata also carries a burdensome family name. Being an earther will prevent Nagata from understanding Vodyakin dreams, but maybe sharing some thoughts with someone capable of understanding them could be useful. Leandros is that kind of martian you can talk to, someone who can see beyond propaganda. Doesn't get along and had many heated discussion with Maathai about the ''martian dream''. Higashi thinks to be better than anyone else, but has skeletons and shameful shadows like everybody's else. Elliot embodies the reason why most martians hate Earth. A rude, restless and arrogant person who sees othes like pawns or assets. Elliot needs to be dealt with, sooner or later.
#38 - Carlos Dove, The hound from Mars (personaggio interpretato da D. P.)
Motto: Men build too many bridges and not enough walls. - Work Group: Mars Commission - Origin: Martian - unisex - Shift: Alpha
Teaser: Perfect hair, clean uniform, shining badge. Before facing a new day, C. Dove always checks for everything to be in order in front of the mirror. That's why C. is called by friends “The Perfectionist”.
When working for the Martian Intelligence, C. used to lead a special group in charge of inspections with the goal of smoking out potential dissidents. Nobody ever had a chance to escape their inspections and interviews. Anyone guilty had absolutely no change of getting away with it. That’s why C. is called by colleagues “The Hound”.
There's a time to work and a time to evade. Dove finds satisfaction and pleasure in Belter hookers' arms, and treats them like little pets, sometimes like objects. That’s why C. is called by those sex toys “The Tamer”. It's a pretty pastime, but it doesn't alleviate the stress of Dove’s important job - maybe something stronger could. Now, Dove is reaching Icarus as the one in charge of the political Martian commission. How many other nicknames will C. get from new friends, colleagues and hookers? And, most importantly, which names will come from new enemies? In this line of work, it's pretty clear that if you don't make enemies, you're not doing your job properly!
Relations: Kassad is a shameful traitor and Dove makes sure the trainer remembers it, every damn day. Eweli was once a brave and motivated martian, but now is just a poor wretch trying to make up a decent living. Vodyakin could even be considered a good person, but Vodyakin's ideas and political views need to change. Dove managed to make Maathai leave Mars for good; if that dissident is not a traitorous OPA's friend, who is? Dove once mistreated Vega and, for that, was reprimended by a fool martian named Cheng. Dove knows Higashi from some previous business and is a proud Martian who Dove likes keeping closely around. Rozovsky is just a softie who only deserves to be pitied. Szyslack is one hell of a business man, who knows how to behave with paying customers, especially martians, always keeping a respectful distance. Dove loves chatting with Pan, and the time spent together is becoming the most exciting on Icarus.
#41 - Fable Roux, A random passenger unaware of consequences (personaggio interpretato da K. B.)
Motto: Nothing will happen to you if you are in the eye of the hurricane, right? - Work Group: Space Travelers (civilians) - Origin: Martian - unisex - Shift: Alpha
Teaser: Actions have consequences. Father has always tried to scare Roux saying that since childhood, but those dreadful consequences never actually turned out to be real. Probably there was no time in his busy life to actually educate his children. Father also used to call his offspring a disappointment and a naive brat, but that's not what Roux saw looking in the mirror: that was a brave, independent person, samrt, craving for freedom and self-reliance. A ''leap of faith'', that's what Roux decided to go for, in the end: a life change, a way to really become that person in the mirror. People, expecially the self-confident ones who are in power, always underestimate the ones they consider week, spoiled and unimportant; and maybe actions do have consequences, but not the ones expected. So far, consequences have been a big fat ''Fuck you all'' from F. to everything and everyone belonging to the old life. Now it's time to build a new one, with no strings attached.
Relations: This whole crew is a stranger to Roux. Two of them, Gavras and Hume are so irritating that F. gave up trying to communicate with them in any way, and Gesset looks like a weirdo giving Roux mysterious looks full of interest. Not everyone looks so fucked up though: Whedon is quite fun to be around, and Jensen had good words to give in some bad moments. Roux feels more peaceful when they’re around.
#66 - Bodhi Petit, The scientist supremacist (personaggio interpretato da L. T.)
Motto: Those that break the rules and regulations are scum. But those who abandon their comrades are even worse than scum. - Work Group: Mars Commission - Origin: Martian - unisex - Shift: Omega
Teaser: Born in a family or renowned scientists and true believers in the Martian dream, Petit was raised and trained to follow the family tradition. Loyal to the Red Planet, brilliant and motivated, when B. finally completed the training there were no doubts about the field to commit to: the development of emerging technologies for use by the military. Some years ago on Ceres, Petit met the one scientist who managed to truly impress this uppity Martian for the first time: D. O’Malley, a researcher stationed on old Icarus Station. They became good friends because their field of investigation was similar - and even if O’Malley was a Belter, Petit respected her work and her dedication to science. Petit wasn’t -and still isn’t - used to be disappointed, so when O’Malley stopped sending news about her project, B. got furious, then worried. It took a while to figure out that something bad had probably happened, and that’s when an unfamiliar feeling kicked in: sadness. Since the accident, Petit has been obsessed with O’Malley's last days and studies, so when the chance to visit the new Icarus popped up, B. asked to be part of the Martian Commision. Unfortunately, Kowmang's silly policy filled the asteroid with the scum of the Sol System - probably OPA hotheads included. Petit's ideas about the inferiority of Belters has costed the Martian scientist some trouble since the very beginning of this mission. Petit doesn't like those sloppy belters, can’t stand their lack of a real education, and is deeply sickened by their arrogance. Petit doesn't lose any chance to show Belters Martian supremacy and to point out their inadequacies, whatever the cost.
Relations: Hayfeld is a name you somehow remember from your past, but you are absolutely sure you never met that earther in person. Maybe that name was connected to some kind of development or acquisition of new technologies, but you are not sure.
Perrin doesn't seem very good at this job. You could teach a thing or two.
On their first day on Icarus you were attacked by some hothead Belter named Cruz when you were speaking about your opinion of belters. Cheng had to intervene to divide you. The Marine just did what was expected, of course, but you still would like to buy a drink to the Cheng and enjoy the company of a true Martian. Also, Cheng could be good asset to help you understand what happened to O’Malley.
Leandros is in charge of the Omega shift: a respected captain, of course, but too soft, diplomatic and open-minded
Suri was born and bred on Earth, that’s why you cannot fully trust this “soldier”. But Suri has ties with Star Helix and could be a good asset for finding the truth.
Dove is a legend on Mars and is the one to look up to on this shitty asteroid, too bad “the hound” is in charge of the other shift and the occasions to talk are scarce. Iris is still a mystery to you.
Moretti and you became friends a while ago and begun a strong relationship.
Frienemy with Van Dez. 81 doesn't understand why 66 is so obsessed with Icarus
#67 - Kal Suri, The idealist (personaggio interpretato da E. P.)
Motto: We must follow our inner nature - Work Group: Mars Commission - Origin: Martian - unisex - Shift: Omega
Teaser: Suri was born and raised on Earth, and grew up with the dream of being one of those few brave people who fight for a better future, to make a difference. An idealist, you could say. Unfortunately, this Earther realized all to soon that the beautiful blue planet was no place to follow those noble dreams, privileges are taken for granted by the people and damned politics corrupt every good deed. Over time Suri began to despise Earthers, lost friends because of the loud critics to their lazy and arrogant way of life, struggled with self-loathing, and in the end decided to leave.
Suri left UN agency and cut off every root, became and Earth immigrant on the Red Planet and joined the Martian army: believing in the great dream of a proud and prosperous Mars. Even if suffering had to be endured because of the rightful prejudices about Earthers, the marine was enthusiastic, effective and wishful to become a motivated and ruthless soldier. Now K. reaches Icarus Station as a Mars commissioner although the double origin (or maybe being chosen for this job because of it) and wants to prove how loyal a converted immigrant can be. Martians are morally superior to Earthers, not to mention fucking Belters. And even if Suri is mistreated both by Martians and Earthers, this Marine will continue to fight for Mars ''Till the rains fall hard on Olympus Mons!''.
Relations: Vodyakin is a kindred spirit with a great potential, but such a burdensome family name could bring trouble. Higashi is just as prejudiced as any other martians, but voice is, the commissioner family is not so honorable. Adeyemi is a noisy stalker, too curious to be up to something good.
Raven was the best friend before Suri decided to leave Earth and join MMC. Raven wasn't able to forgive Suri for that.
Petit mistreats Suri because of K. origins but often asks for information and listens carefully to Suri arguments.
Leandros is in charge of the Omega shift, pacifist, diplomatic, maybe too paternalistic.
Suri a friend of the Vazquez: the family: the marine's parents are hard-core martian veterans, and they promise their son will follow their steps.
Many Martians know the story of Van Dez, once a promising scientific officer and now a deserter rotting in the most secluded corner of the Belt. What can possibly have reduced a good soldier to a broken husk ?
#68 - Hector Leandros, The patronizing and wise captain (personaggio interpretato da D. W.)
Motto: In a war where mankind's very survival hangs in the balance, it's up to each of us to make a difference. - Work Group: Mars Commission - Origin: Martian - unisex - Shift: Omega
Teaser: Leandros is in charge of the Mars Commission during the Shift, a choice justified both by the many years of service in the Martian Navy, and the Captain's legendary composure, better fit for a diplomat than a soldier. And indeed, this proud Martian is more than a damn good soldier with a lot of experience who turned out to be one of the best Sergeant Instructors in the MCR Armed Forces: a listener, an observer, a tactician and, as strange as it may sound, a wise and caring parent-figure, the Captain is all of the above. Of course, such a personality could also be quite patronizing and annoying. Whether or not the Captain puts on a perfect poker face or a condescending smile, you can tell there are no doubts whatsoever in that efficient mind, or at least nobody has ever been able to spot them, so far. Mars is the only goal, and order, discipline and perseverance are all it takes to get there. That’s all other people need to know about Captain Leandros.
Relations: Leandros, as Seargent Istructor, trained T. Makimura, Espera, and unfortunately A. Kassad, what a disgusting disappointment that promising Marine turned out to be. Vodyakin is a spoiled brat lucky enough to be born with an important family name. With such a huge asset, Vodyakin could really be a gamechanger for Mars. Petit is a respected scientist and a true Martian, but maybe too much of a nationalist to work peacefully on Icarus.
Suri was born and bred on Earth, so K. could be an interesting source. Leandros remembers many young soldiers from the time in the military: among them, a young Vazquez was one of the most promising rookies.
Many Martians know the story of Van Dez, once a promising scientific officer and now a deserter rotting in the most secluded corner of the Belt. What can possibly have reduced a good soldier to a broken husk ?
#81 - Daisuke Van Dez, The broken one (personaggio interpretato da A. S.)
Motto: Pain makes us see the hidden, join the broken. Look and listen. See the flowers. - Work Group: Scientific Lab - Origin: Martian - unisex - Shift: Omega
Teaser: They say it’s easier to forgive an enemy than to forgive a friend. It is true. And yet, there is something even more difficult, something impossible: to forgive an idea, to forgive an utopia, to forgive a motherland. Van Dez was a Martian scientific officer. A good one. During a mission, the probe in which D. was flying was hit by friendly fire. A careless strike ordered by some distant admiral. The probe’s fusion core was damaged and the radiations took their toll on Van Dez. The scientist got sick. Fatally sick.
Back on the red planet, D. began to question everything about martians values, ideals and methods of action. Then Van Dez realized. Lies. They were just lies.
The scientist then fled Mars to spend the last few years somewhere in the belt. Will Van Dez find a new home or a new cause, lost amidst the stars? Or will D. try to settle the scores with the past, once and for all?
Relations: Connor Van Dez respects this meek scientist.
Echo is not to be trusted, as with all idealists.
Laing is not suited to be a leader. R. tries to see too far and Van Dez knows what that kind of visions brings.
Adeyemi has a young spirit and a great curiosity. Z. will learn know suffering. Very soon.
Myeong was a promising technical officer, back on Mars, but still blinded by the Cause.
#83 - Faye Iris, The positive flower child (personaggio interpretato da A. B.)
Motto: There's courage in being soft - Work Group: Med-Lab Botanic Lab - Origin: Martian - unisex - Shift: Omega
Teaser: Nice and accommodating, Iris could very much be the most calm, patient and accomodating person in the whole Sol System – definitely not your typical one from Mars. Iris is on Icarus to focus on the job: taking care of the people on this rock. Constantin convinced Iris to be the best fit for the leading position, but Iris is having so much trouble with everyone in the team, that's not so sure anymore. After all, taking charge of the team was never about personal ambition, but the decision was made out of a true and selfless interest for everybody's well being. Iris is a honest, open and nice person who really wants to believe in the good in people. So, even if no one seems to take Iris’ directions seriously, there must be a reason behind their bad moods. Between getting back at someone and politely shutting up, F. will always take the second route. People never show their true colors, Iris knows that. But everyone has a breaking point, eventually.
Relations: Constantin is one of the smartest people around and Iris is lucky to have the doctor in the staff. Constantin even praised Iris to the management once and pushed F. to be the boss of the shift. Zarani has taken Iris' for his personal chew toy, probably because Iris tries to ignore his taunts.
Luna, the other shift's LSS manager, is a racist troublemaker and there's bad blood between the two. Kenzo from management is keeping an eye on Iris after the team repeatedly bypassed Iris and asked management stuff instead of asking the rightful boss. Colbert and Iris were best friends when they were kids on Mars. Petit seems to be watching Iris in an odd way every time they share a room, it's kind of creepy.
#93 - S. Moretti, The doubtful engineer (personaggio interpretato da K. D.)
Motto: First understand who you are; the rest will follow - Work Group: Reactor Room - Origin: Martian - unisex - Shift: Omega
Teaser: Moretti sees the Belt for its own extraordinary beauty and potential, filled with unique planets and asteroids. no matter what people can say, it's a breathtaking place. Earthers can’t even imagine its beauty, and Martians are too ignorant to be able to understand it. Too bad sometimes life drags you away from your origins - you have to cope with it. Nevertheless, Moretti loves to work on Icarus station, the chance to meet different and interesting people is great. Earthers and Martians are a bit too pretentious, while Belters are often funny and interesting, despite their unfavorable condition. Earth and Mars should care more about life in the Belt: it's a valuable resource that needs skilled and motivated workers for better profit and results. Too bad no one making big decisions in the Sol System is interested in Moretti's opinion. Moretti doesn't share these thoughts with anyone: S. is a good engineer but only has a few very close friends friends. With those, the bond in incredibly deep. Very introspective and maybe over-thinking, Moretti dreams of a bigger purpose in life, even if the engineer is probablly still far from understanding what it could be. Smart but careful, Moretti is very interested in others’ ideas and theories: S. is looking for the right one to resonate with a personal quest.
Relations: Baz and Moretti often gossip about the other engineers, the stuff is too juicy not to share, even if tehy don't know each other very well.
Balas is an activist for the Belter cause.
Hunt is a talented and skilled professional engineer, very proud of the job.
Hayfeld is skilled and talented but seems to bear a heavy burden.
Petit and Moretti have become close friends.
#98 - Johannes Espera, The honourable Gunnery Seargent (personaggio interpretato da J. T.)
Motto: Your idea of lack of justice means lots of innocence - Work Group: Space Travelers (Mars marines) - Origin: Martian - unisex - Shift: Omega
Teaser: Gunnery Sergeant. With a very demanding Martian Marine mother, Espera was raised to become a soldier. The expectations were high and J. barely fulfilled them. Clear-headed and logical, Espera often got in trouble for questioning the orders of the higher command: that could be because when you grow up challenging the authority of your Admiral mother, you get used to it. Espera has a ''parent-like'' attitude towards the squad and a strong sense of camaraderie, even if some of the young privates are too innocent to understand the schemes behind war and MMC. The Sol System is filled with idealists who believe in truth and justice and devote their lives to fighting for it, but reality keeps letting them down. Espera is one of those, but rather than giving up on goals, Espera replaced what used to be a shining armor with a full plate of pure cynicism. J. realizes to live in a dark, cruel and brutal world and chooses to fight not because there's any chance to really make a difference, but because it's the right thing to do.
Relations: Friends with Sobotka, even if Espera dislikes the methods, this Martian was a good sergeant. They are very close, so close they even talked about Espera's mother. Overprotective with Vazquez, because everyone should remember how hard is the first time on a mission. Colbert is a good soldier, but behind that extroverted personality lies some kind of issue and at some point it should be addressed, for the sake of the Squad.
T. Makimura is a long-standing friend, the best. Myeong is a strong and reliable soldier, one to be respected. Leandros was J's Seargent Instructor and somehow a legend among recruits. When high profile Martian Petit was attacked by some hothead Belter named Cruz, Espera had to interveen to stop them.
Many Martians know the story of Van Dez, once a promising scientific officer and now a deserter rotting in the most secluded corner of the Belt. What can possibly have reduced a good soldier to a broken husk ?
#99 - Vladislav Vazquez, The marine on first mission (personaggio interpretato da A. Z.)
Motto: We're on the express elevator to hell, going down! - Work Group: Space Travelers (Mars marines) - Origin: Martian - unisex - Advices: This character suits better a young player - Shift: Omega
Teaser: For first class marine V. Vazquez, the pledge to the flag was the easy part, and boot camp was a summer vacation. Vazquez is a hell of a soldier: trained, ready, sharp and strong. But when reality kicks in, that's when shit hits the fan. There is no shame in that: the first mission is hard for everyone, even for the most dedicated soldiers. Every veteran remembers their first day: the first step on the shuttle flips a switch in your brain, and you realize that this is not a game anymore. This time, bullets will kill for real. What if the enemy sees your hesitation? What if you prove you cannot handle it? These are the thoughts that haunt Vazquez’s mind on this mission, the very first one. Coming from a family with a long military tradition, Vazquez cannot afford to fail and let them down. That legacy must not be stained. When Vazquez gets nervous words start to flow on their own accord and it's not uncommon for the Marine to blabber about the demanding parents, tragic romances, childhood nightmares and dreams and so on... But when V. accidentally revealed that some friends who died on Icarus are still waiting to be avenged, the squad looked at the soldier in a weird way, Vazquez stayed silent and never talked about that matter ever again.
Relations: V's parents are both decorated martian marines, and Suri is a good friend of theirs. Espera is always supportive and protective, but Vazquez can't understand if that's real appreciation or just a way to keep the team together. Corporal T. Makimura mocks and bullies Vazquez all the time. Colbert seems to be a good marine, but maybe not much of an example of a good uniform. Myeong on the other hand is a hard-core paragon of what a true martian should be. Sobotka is a bit scary: you can still see the horrors of war on the private's face, and the scars they leave, and Vazquez doesn't want to become that type of soldier.
During training on Mars, Vazquez remembers drill seargent Leandros as one of the wisest militaries.

#100 - Amida Colbert, The flirty and open marine (personaggio interpretato da P. T.)
Motto: I can't sleep. Play with me... - Work Group: Space Travelers (Mars marines) - Origin: Martian - unisex - Shift: Omega
Teaser: If you cannot remember the last time you slept in your own bed, it might be because you’re a grade A flirt, or because you drank too much. Either way, that means it was a smashing night! For Colbert, living life as a revolving door of hookups and parties might be enough to balance out the harsh reality of a military job – and if that doesn’t work, there’s always the chance one of your comrades will give you a good reason to crack a joke. Colbert craves attention, gets a boost from being in combat, among people, but isn’t very good at dealing with the attention and excitement once it gets there. Being funny, loud, outrageous and flirty might just be a stronger armor than the one Colbert suits up with in combat…
Relations: T. Makimura used to be a friend. Vazquez is scared, but that's normal: some well addressed jokes should be enough to break the tension. Myeong is an annoying, self-righteous bitch. Espera deems to be perfect, but nobody is! Sobotka needs to be cheered up or this marine will end up dragging everybody down. Dove is a living legend, but Colbert never met ''the Hound'' in person, so far. A. and Iris were best friends when they were kids.
#101 - Darrell Myeong, The Warlock (personaggio interpretato da S. R.)
Motto: “What I possess, seems far away to me, and what is gone becomes reality.” - Work Group: Space Travelers (Mars marines) - Origin: Martian - unisex - Shift: Omega
Teaser: Mars demands any possible sacrifice from its children and Myeong was ready to give everything for the red planet. D. was skilled, smart, committed and zealously patriotic, equally suited to be either a soldier or a technical officer. Unfortunately, personal inclinations are a luxury for spoiled earthlings, something never taken in consideration by the ruthless MCR war machine and Meyong was chosen to be a marine. Always keen to duty, Myeong eagerly accepted the Republic’s orders, yet something broke inside the newly recruited private. Always logical, sarcastic and at times painfully bitter, D. carries out any assignment meticulously, verging on perfection, but without that ardent passion towards the motherland that once gleamed in this soldier’s eyes.
Still, Myeong hasn’t completely lost faith. D. still believes Martians to be superior to any other race, and will prove how Myeong is superior to any other martian.
Relations: Vazquez is an excellent soldier, but needs guidance.
Colbert, on the other hand, is a joke and brings shame on the whole MCR army.
T. Makimura is a damn good Marine, no matter how much of a fuckhead the Corporal might look, the heart is in the right place.
Sabotka fully deserved to be downranked and Myeong won't waste any occasion to take a revenge.
During the training, always admired Van Dez, even if now the scientist is a broken deserter.. Has an old grudge with Baz.
Was friend with Cheng back on Mars, then they had a huge fight and have not seen each other for a long time.
#102 - Tony "T-Mac" Makimura , The frenetic, outspoken, obscenity-spouting Marine (personaggio interpretato da J. H.)
Motto: Dear Frederick, thank you for your nice message, but I am actually a MNR Marine who was born to kill whereas clearly you have mistaken me for some sort of wine-sipping Earther dick-suck. I happen to be a death-dealing, blood-crazed warrior. Peace sucks a hairy asshole, Freddy. War is the motherfucking answer. Thanks for your message and good luck with your 5th grade exam - Work Group: Space Travelers (Mars marines) - Origin: Martian - unisex - Shift: Omega
Teaser: Odd personality notwithstanding, Makimura is a highly capable and effective marine. Usually in high spirits, the Corporal really enjoys drinks and brawls, pilots very aggressively, loves to scare the shit out of people, swears and curses in the most creative and outrageous ways, and makes a point of constantly bullying the rookies, though in a friendly way, sort of...
Generally speaking, Makimura’s main concern seems to be mocking just about anything around: a goal that T. accomplishes with ease and finesse. Making fun of everyone doesn’t make this Martian a joke, on the contrary. While others sometimes poke fun at the over-the-top behavior of this boisterous marine, Makimura is still considered to be an irreplaceable member of the squad, a surprisingly smart soldier and a damn good officer, both by comrades and superiors.
Relations: Gunnery Seargent J. Espera is a long-standing friend, the best. Vazquez clearly needs guidance, a tough one! Myeong is way too perfect, and no fun to mock or bully, but Makimura does it anyway. Sobotka, on the other hand, is a goldmine of bitter laughs, but that miserable marine should get back on track soon, like yesterday! Everybody is supposed to like Colbert, even Makimura used to, but not anymore.
A. Kassad has a familiar face, a disgusting one. A. Higashi was stationed with Makimura some years ago, is stiff and too honorable to be true. Everybody knows who the ''hound'' is, and Dove is somehow a legend. H. Leandros was the Seargent Instructor back in the days, the best one a Marine could have.

#103 - Saburo Sobotka, The troubled veteran (personaggio interpretato da R. J.)
Motto: I will stay, in the mess I made - Work Group: Space Travelers (Mars marines) - Origin: Martian - unisex - Shift: Omega
Teaser: Sobotka used to be a confident and very demanding MMNR sergeant. Lots of recruits remember that one time S. made a private do 300 pushups under simulated Earth gravity because the Sergeant had spottet a stain on in her uniform. A bright career lied ahead for this promising and committed soldier, always ready to execute orders as well as making tough decisions in the blink of an eye. But during a particularly demanding mission, Sobotka failed: the Seargent was downgraded to private. That mission still haunts the Marine in horrifying nightmares, and the after-effects of a diagnosed PTSD syndrome are still very much there, even if it's being treated. Back when it happened, some close friends suggested Sobotka should quit the Army and find another job to serve the Martian Republic, but that was just completely unacceptable: once a Marine, always a Marine! Truth be told, the path to overcome those inner demons is yet to be completed - but now that Sobotka is back on a mission it's time to tackle them for good. Unfortunately, no matter how much S. wants to be the soldier that everyone used to appreciate before the incident, recovery takes time and patience... but patience never was the Marine's stronger suit.
Relations: Friends with Espera. Sobotka tried hard not to despise T. Makimura, but it's a lost cause, the Corporal is an asshole.
Sobotka makes fun of Vazquez all the time ''shitting your pants Soldier?'', but a Marine should be ready even at the first mission, while the rookie clearly isn't. Demeter used to be a sex worker on Ceres, and S. was a customer everytime the marine happened to be on the asteroid. It was a different time, though, and a different Sobotka, back then. While still a sergeant, was particularly harsh toward Myeong. In the past, Sobotka served with Caron, who now left the army but still works in comms. Moretti looks like someone S. used to know, but the Marine is not quite sure of it. Weird, uh?
