Profile

A second-generation outer-system citizen, Aron worked up from hazardous maintenance to systems oversight on Prometheus Station , the industrial hub of the Earth-Mars corridor.

Stoic and dryly funny, he is loyal to workers and families first. When Processing Bay Three is sealed for an atmospheric vent with people still inside, his manual override becomes the first hard evidence of the Shepherd protocol.

He has a daughter, Leah, on Luna he has not seen in three years. That silence becomes something far worse as the conspiracy closes in.
