Captain Frances Dunne

Persistence · Prometheus-Mars route

Captain of Persistence, a working freighter on the Prometheus-Mars route with little patience for decorative authority.

Working captain No nonsense Route memory Trust over paper

Profile

Frances Dunne runs Persistence the way working captains always have: thin margins, hard schedules, and a sharp eye for which favours keep a ship flying.

She has little patience for decorative authority and less for people who treat freight work as abstract logistics instead of human risk.

She understands that cargo often moves on trust the manifests never show, and she remembers who keeps their word when the system starts lying.
