Stodgky:
Stodgky "appalling" Gudunov is a brilliant software specialist and skilled 
pilot.  It has been said that he could install UNIX, LINUX, DOS, and Windows NT 
all on the same machine, successfully, all while flying a Cesna through downtown 
New York at street level.  While he is highly qualified, he suffers from ADD and 
a wicked bad sense of humor.  This has made him difficult to post.  While he 
responds with reasonable success to authority, it should be noted that he 
sometimes forgets who is in charge.  It's not that he disrespects his superiors, 
he just forgets who they are.

Gryphon:
Gryphon Nevan Maru is perhaps the most gifted electrical engineer in the 
service.  On one occasion, she single-handedly repaired the ship on which she 
was working after it had been rewired inside out and upside down by a WireSpider 
infection.  While not technically enlisted, she is under a service agreement, 
which she entered into in order to get tuition money.  She took the job with 
team Allotrope purely on the merit of its salary.  While less socially inept 
than her new partner, Stodgky, she is pugnacious, short-tempered, ill mannered 
and, quite frankly, unpleasant to be around.  Despite all this, she has never 
transferred off an assignment in poor standing.  

Marius:
Marius was included not so much for his skills, which are formidable, but 
because they needed someone to keep Gryphon and Stodgky from killing each other.  
For this task, he is almost ideally suited.  His chief problem is with 
authority.  In general, his psych profile is stable, but he has delusions of 
grandeur and a disrespect for superiors and people in general.  It is believed 
that he has some sort of "plan" for the government of the Eastern Spiral Arm.  
As yet, no details on this are available.  He spent the last seven months 
incarcerated for mutiny, treason, and indecent exposure, all of which he somehow 
managed to accomplish at last year's Christmas party.
