A veteran of the Hargut military, Gratchu received his technical training in the service. He chose the Sathar as his life enemy. Accordingly, he joined the Star Law Rangers, where his experience and skills earned him a berth on this expedition. Normally quiet and restrained, he is capable of fierce rage and impulsive action, but has learned to control his emotions, as is necessary for an officer.

Lappsod is actually quite timid and reserved for a Dralasite (which isn't saying a great deal). He is dedicated to the weak forms of humor so popular with his race. He is very proud of his strength and is always showing off and challenging others to contests. He enjoys working with robots and program­ming them to display subtle elements of Dralasite humor while carrying out their assigned tasks.

Leonid is by far the youngest member of the expedition, a child genius with computers. He imagined that the expedition would be glamorous and exciting. So far it has been very routine and boring, so he is looking forward to a little adventure. Despite his mild, intellectual appearance, he's not afraid of action; in fact, he has a persistent habit of getting in over his head.

Bill was a young and ambitious officer, thought to have a great future in the service. A bit awkward in social settings, he was the model UPF officer on the bridge. He was Captain Marlboro's executive officer for a year and a half, and increasingly assumed the majority of the responsibilities of command. Most of the expedition members unconsciously recognized that Terry was effectively the skipper of the Moraes. All admired the way he took on the heavy workload. His sudden breakdown caught everyone by surprise; there were no warning signs. The hypothesis that his irrational behavior is prompted by some Sathar trick is impossible to confirm or disprove. However, his actions are not consistent with his past behavior and psychological stability.

Always addressed as "Captain Marlboro;' the Captain is a rather distant and formal characten He is experienced and well-trained, though unimaginative and conventional. He was selected for this expedition on the basis of his unblemished record of successfully completed missions. However, he reached the peak of his capacity and is now coasting downhill.

Mormord Massod and Brogod Omborg (see below) are old friends who have been together since they joined the service 30 years ago. They are inseparable companions on and off ship, probably because no one else can appreciate the stale jokes and philosophical arguments they love to share. They are not particularly hard workers, but they always seem to get enough done to get by. Their wealth of experience and persistent good spirits make them excellent crewmen on long expeditions.
