Azfelius

## Overview

Azfelius is also know as the Faerie Planet. For millennia the Faeries kept the planet hidden from the outside world using their connection to the Etheric to avoid the wars between the Kurtherians and other species. When they felt Bethany Anne they saw a being who used the Etheric for justice and approached her for Federation membership. While Federation members, they will not engage in any combat that is not directly related to repelling the Kurtherians.

The first appearance of Azfelius and the Faeries is in The Art of Smuggling. There is a rivalry between clans and in the midst of the disagreement a precious artwork appears to be stolen.

Boudin

## Overview

#### The Bad Company

TH's first assignment is to enforce a contract on Tissikinnon Four for the Crenellians. The team of 50 are dropped directly into a fire fight where they fight for their lives, killing thousands of Podders, the natives calling Tissikinnon, Poddern. Terry's nature is to only kill when necessary and to this point despite the vast battle none of his people have been killed. The team captures a Boudin and Joseph probes Boudin's mind to establish contact. Terry's primary objective at this point is to get to the planetary HQ for the Podders and the Crenellians to deescalate the situation.

Joseph finds out the Pods know they are at fault. They signed the contract, got what they wanted and then started an earthquake that buried all the Crenellians. Joseph also informs them there are multiple clans of the Podders and they are located in the midst of a clan that is at war with the clan of their prisoner. Worse, the Podder clans speak different languages and the prisoner also cannot understand the Podders they have to fight for the resupply pod.

The Branch members are upset by the shear violence against the Podders. They are glad when Boudin, suggests the use bright light to push the mainly underground dwelling Podders back. Boudin helps them get into the enclave and open the entry for TH and the Branch.

Once TH gets into the main Crennillian enclave they shut down the defensive capabilities and renegotiates the contract between the Podders and the Crennillians. The new contract will have the Podders mine the material the Crennillians want and the Podders will get paid with the technology they need. Since the Podders do not value the materials and naturally live underground making tunnels it is a win for both species. Boudin becomes a hero to the Podders but requests to go with the Branch.

#### Blockade

At Keeg Station, Ted puts Boudin through the Pod-Doc to give him a communications chip and minor adjusts.

## Overview

Kalan was born at the Swarthian Extended Detention Environment. ‘SEDE.’ It’s a prison. Largest in the galaxy, or at least that’s their claim. His mother was incarcerated there when I was born. The children of prisoners are held with their parents until they age out at 18. Even though released, they are know as saby/sabies with a degree of stigma. They are not specifically taught any skills other than surviving within the toughest maximum security prison in their galaxy. It is why he knows so many people in criminal/underworld organizations. Sabies have stylized arrow tattoos on their forearms that identify themselves to one another. Showing the tattoo indicates a saby is looking to contact other sabies.

He meets Valarie shortly after she has arrived in his galaxy finding him breaking up piracy of his shuttle where he has subdued the pirates before she comes aboard. She is looking to add a local contact to help avoid making social mistakes and point out areas to focus and hires him.

Jean Dukes Specials

## Overview

Hand held mini-rail guns developed by Jean Dukes. They originally had settings that went from 1-11 with 1-4 being non-lethal to 11 requiring the shooter to have quick healing for broken bones in the shooter's arm and hand. In Payback is a Bitch there was level 12.

The guns were isomorphic, with each individual weapon coded exclusively for the designated owner's DNA. No-one else would be able to fire these weapons if they somehow managed to get their hands on them.

If someone to take them apart, they explode.

The higher power settings required exponentially more strength requiring the shooter to be enhanced.

The meter long version is called the "Thunderbolt".

Terry Henry Walton secretly calls them the World Enders, because of the power they could unleash.
