Cocytus is the supreme commander of the Cerulean Nanotechnology and Biomachinery Oligate. He is also, in the given situation, the captain of the CMS Crux Belial. Supposedly within him rests a great technology- a particular nanotech device of incredible power. He seems to act entirely at whim, but fortunately this whim generally ends in good. Both he and Simon had a hand in the design of the Crux Belial, and thus their particular whims are extant within the ship and its computer.

Simon the Quick, his legendary name, is a good description of him. Quick to make decisions and even quicker to make errors. And, fortunately for him, quick enough to fix them before they become a problem. He was once a rogue, but found that he had a knack for engineering and that it suited him better. He and Cocytus designed the Crux Belial, along with many of the other gadgets that Cerulia uses. Simon carries with him always (If not on his back, in his bag of holding...) his grandfather's sword, Caslan's Ace. Like Cocytus, age seems to have only effected him by making him tougher every year. Simon is (and has been for a looong while) married to Francisca.

Francisca Divonne was once a normal girl on the world of New Spain, the planet claimed by the people of Spain when interstellar travel became common. When she was 16, she coincidentally met Simon Divonne and a bunch of his friends travelling the stars. All the rest is just history. From about the time she was 24 to when she was 560, she was in cryogenic freezing until a longevity vaccine was created. She is an amazing pilot, and her genetics are what the majority of Cerulean Pilots' genes are based on. Francisca is not even remotely as powerful as Cocytus or Simon, but is definitely at least minorly superhuman in her reflexes and tactical prowess.

Corsair is the computer of the CMS Corsair (designated the Crux Belial) He (as he refers to himself in the male gender) consists of a massive protocore in the center of the crux belial. Without this protocore, he is unable to do the massive calculations required for the defensive and offensive systems of the ship. His memory storage is relatively small volume-wise, the whole of his data is kept in stacks no bigger than a deck of cards. He manifests himself as modules so that he can directly assist members of the ship more easily. These rely on the ship's nano-grids, wiring that allows the transport of nanoscopic robots who can at the will of the computer construct different apparatuses. Combined with the ship, Corsair is nothing to scoff at. His general lean is toward good, as his programming disallows him to act in ways against such an alignment, but he can get very grumpy. He dislikes being referred to in the neuter, as the conotation in english is negative.

Nikita (or Nik) is a semi-notorious space pirate from the future. Her past is unknown, but it is assumed that some kind of tragedy brought her into the renegade business. Though not nearly as tough as Cocytus, she is still a force to be reckoned with her railgun. She seems to enjoy the fact that she is good looking, unlike Francisca. Her marital status is single, as marriages are bad amongst short-lived pirates.

Popov the Russian Dwarf is an expert pilot and pirate alike. Apparently he got into pirating for the simple things in life, namely sandwiches. his dream is to one day have the perfect reuben or turkey club. His weapon of choice is a massive zero-G .44 Ruger Super WarHawk. However, he lost the gun when he was captured by Cocytus.

Your typical Anime Space-woman, Kei is a master engineer. Aside from being overly chipper and bubbly, well, not much. Maybe she came out of the Tenchi series, we're not sure. She also likes bombs. Big bombs. Preferrably atomic ones, too. Maybe having her in engineering isn't such a wise idea?

The Proud and Forthwidth, Aamadeus Poole is both a great leader and fighter. His pride gets to him sometimes, though. He leads the faction known as Pallendrom Aerospace Engineering. Once a mere engineering firm, his leadership brought the corporation galactic accolades. He tends to offend with his extreme military protocol-- but it seems to work out well for his nation. His mission has been for his time as a leader to unite humanity under the flag of PAE. Long time friend of Cocytus, his faction and Cocytus' formed a strong alliance to further their aims. A energy tristaff is his weapon of choice, but he is also skilled with any number of other weapons.

Katherine Del'madore is technically a half-breed. But don't tell her that. Her mother fought bravely alongside the heroes in the vanquishing of Xaltos. Long since having been granted clinical immortality by the science of PAE, she serves as Aamadeus' bodyguard and lieutenant. She also leads the elite commando force known as the Phoenix Guard. Always honorable, it is clear that she believes in the rules of PAE, and would die for them given the chance. Fortunately for her, she is a lot tougher than most people, and thus less susceptible to dying. A katana is the weapon she favors, the same as her mother.

The Epitome of evil, Xaltos is a powerful force of malevolence. Well, most of the time, anyway. Fortunately, though, his great power is balanced by those of the heroes. He would like none other than to eliminate Cocytus, Simon and many others so that he could force the universe into involuntary servitude and suffering. And thats on a good day. He can supposedly create minions of shadow at the blink of an eye. Not something he is often seen doing, however.

Rarloth is the near-mindless servant and bodyguard of the sinister Xaltos. His power may in fact rival his liege's, but he is bound into servitude by a permenant spell of Geas. Consisting of only epheremiel flame, he weighs less than a pencil. The force, however, that he can exert, is as though he is as massive as Cocytus. He is sometimes referred to as "The Inferno".
