Marquessa Millicent Von Bürg, EUR ING, MD, DMSC, DS, DSc honoris causa

Chief Health Officer & Director of Cyber Resources
Head Office: Von Bürg School of Cybermedicine, Bürg Crater, Luna Biological Age (Synchronized Earth Time): 56
Marquessa Von Bürg is a pioneering figure in cyborg development and cybermedicine. The heiress to an obscure line of Viennese nobility, she used her family wealth to fund the creation of a medical research center at Bürg Crater on Luna with her late partner. She splits her time between her position as Dean and Professor Emeritus at the Von Bürg School of Cyber Medicine, Seneca boardrooms, and lecture circuits across the globe to ensure the integration, advancement, and edification of the principals of which she helped establish. Marquessa Von Bürg is known as one of the trailblazers of modern prosthetics and neural networking. When her duties provide time, she is a patron of numerous charities and chair of her own personal charity, the Von Bürg Excellence in Adversity Grant, seeking to provide lethally-injured individuals of advanced talent with ongoing employment and educational opportunities.
Professor Von Bürg has always had a 'never stop, never settle' attitude since a young age. Her father Marquis Gustav von Bürg once said warmly that by the age of 12 she had already exceeded his studies in astronomy. Her mother Marquessa Lódi von Bürg encouraged young Millicent's interests in hobby robotics. Millicent travelled to the ill-fated Lake Erie Technological Exposition of 1981 and lost her left arm when Hafgan's MULE prototype ran amuck. She designed her own cyber-prosthetic replacement arm as a masters thesis project.
When asked to describe herself in one word, she stated primly, "Operational." with one of her trademark slight smiles. In her spare time, Professor Von Burg enjoys spending time with her recently born granddaughter, mentoring students one-on-one who show exceptional promise, and the collection of Yamato-e art, a passion she got from her deceased partner. Her three children and newly born grand daughter will also point out, to her slight contention, that she also loves to visit amusement parks. You might just run into her there.
When asked for advice she would give to any future medical aspirants, Professor Burg without hesitation stated: "Find your passion and hold it tight. There is no dream impossible, there is no goal unreachable. Always move forward and never allow doubt to demotivate you."

Colonel "Mild Bill" Williams

• Chief of Security

Biological Age (Synchronized Earth Time): 66
As a young street cop from the mild streets of Geneva NY, Bill's first assignment was working event security for the Y2K Geneva Agritech Convention, an event dedicated to the growing challenges of Lunar cultivation. Bill made acquaintances with such luminaries as Beatrice Ainley (Aninley Orchards & Apiaries), George Burbank (Gardengear), and Wallace Jam (Lunaport) who encouraged his interests in space travel.

Early career notes:

• Corrections Officer at the newly opened Five Points supermax prison. Received training in riot control tactics.
• Recruited as Lunaport Public Safety Officer by Administrator Wallace Jam
• Promoted to Lunaport Senior Safety Officer by Admin W. Jam
• Transferred to the Lansberg Prison in Lansberg Crater, Luna

The Mars Years The now Lt. Williams was taken hostage during the Lansberg Prison Uprising and went MIA. He reappeared several years later in a greasy diner on Phobos, with several gang tattoos and little memory of the years in-between. Many lunar troublemakers, gamblers and roustabouts seemed to know him on a first-name basis, but he had little memory of why. Former Lt. Williams worked briefly as a longshoreman in BCB's brew-port at Mars' own Beer Crater but he fired for diverting products to a certain ``Assistant Thad Davies``. Bill headed west to spend a few years at a moonshining outpost at Ubud Crater, then onwards to work security for a motorcycle club in the rough-and-tumble Aureum Chaos region. He was there when the Martians rose up. He was there when the barricades fell. He'll often retell the story of when the Marties overran their position, wistfully remembering his many lost "bruds." He joined the Mars Auxiliary Defense Legion, Aureum District (MADLADs), and as Warrant Officer Williams proved himself to be a fearsome and fearless scrapper through the hard years ahead.

Due to his reputation and his old connections, he was recruited by Nanotrasen as Security Attache to the Hieng Expedition of 2031.

• Head of Security, NSS Valiant 2031-2034

MIA after the battles of Regis-Mors 2034, left adrift in a jettisoned cryogenic sleeper pod for the next decade. When his sleeper eventually crashed outside the construction site for NT Outpost Theta, he was found holding Mr. Beepsky Sr. within his coat, hibernating together the whole time. The two helped to deter hostile wildlife while the construction team worked.

Spent time at Ainsley Staff Center recuperating.

• Promoted to Deputy Chief of Security, Frontier Division, stationed at Space Station 10.
• Took over for 'Five-Fingers Devlin' when the old Five Points facility was annexed into Centcom.

Professional rival of Commodore Roland Yee.

Commodore Roland Yee

• Chief of Fleet Operations
  

Home Office: LORAN-C Transmitter Facility, Romulus NY.

Grew up in an off-grid survivalist’s cabin in Monongahela National Forest, an adopted child raised by retired Signals instructor Roger “Roger That” Yee and Ordnance instructor Jim “Cannon” Roland from the old Elkins base in the West Virginia Maneuver Area. As a child he enjoyed scrambling up the 13th Army Corps’s old assault climbing trails at Seneca Rocks. Tinkering with old radio dishes and amplifiers and parts from unexploded munitions, he could enjoy late-night scifi radio dramas and cryptid stories from deep inside the Allegheny Quiet Zone. Li'l Yee with his stacks of well-worn field handbooks would often roleplay leading a commando squad of local wildlife against such foes as the legendary Mothman.

• Highly skilled navigator and radio operator
• Undertook SERE training for ‘Self-improvement’
• Self-described ‘Howitzer Connoisseur’

Moved to Bellona NY start an independent consulting and engineering firm designing futuristic weaponry and tactical courses to pitch to the new Lunar security forces. His business was quickly bought out by Nanotrasen. Recruited by NT, Yee was cryogenically frozen for long-term flight to the contentious Asteroid Belt operational district. Unfortunately, Yee's cryo-sleeper shuttle was sent to the wrong planetoid due to a terrible filing accident, and he remained frozen for ten years in an orbital warehouse. As part of a legal settlement for this wronging, he was appointed to be the Tactical Liason for the Hieng Expedition of 2031 and soon promoted to captain of the NSS Valiant. Critically wounded in the battles of REGIS-MORS 2034, Yee was once again cryogenically frozen again for most of a decade. After thawing and recovery, he quickly became a lead instructor at Outpost Xi (aka FIGHT SCHOOL).

Now the high commodore of Nanotrasen's fleet of stations and ships, though it's mostly a desk job. Professional rival of Mild Bill Williams
