The local Director for the IDS Criminal Investigations. His name is a well known one, a hero of times gone by who serves from the desk now. He was quite proud of his nephew’s rise through the ranks, and is deeply concerned by his defection. He cooperates as ordered, but is frequently concerned with growing lack of transparency in the IDS and its goals, though he remains quite loyal to the organization. Having fought in the war that founded it, he knows the risks of a world without it all to well.

Background

The local Director for the IDS Criminal Investigations. His name is a well known one, a hero of times gone by who serves from the desk now. He was quite proud of his nephew’s rise through the ranks, and is deeply concerned by his defection.

He remains loyal to the IDS, and views Peter as something of a dangerous wild card, stating that he is willing to act against Peter's interests, though he would like to first understand Peter's motivations, and does not want to needlessly antagonize either Peter or the other branches of the IDS, fearing that it would lead to more chaos. When he sends Nathan after Peter, he just asks him to find out Peter's motives, though their meeting is interrupted by Atter trying to kill both of them.

When pushed too far by Biana and Sophie's reckless behavior, he starts acting as Major Arron Kepler again, and actively working against them in order to reign them in.
