Bio: Born to a Japanese American woman on Ganymede, Edmund never knew his father, a miner on one of the nearby moons. Growing up on the outskirts of civilized society, Edmund didn't have many friends, and showed little interest in becoming a fisherman. Instead, he spent most of his time with something Ganymede had little of, advanced technology. He tinkered, invented, and hacked throughout his childhood until his mother died when he was 14. He left Ganymede soon after, procuring himself a fine vessel under his online guises, including those of mildly well known hackers Tech Nine and The Count. Over the last ten years, he or one of his screen names have had their hands in most major events playing out across the system, although his motivations are unknown. Although few of his screen names can be directly linked to Edmund, or even one another, many of his personas have moderate bounties on them. Edmund has a number of screen names and aliases which he uses to protect his general anonymity.
Tech Nine is believed to have connections to various unspecified criminal organizations, and has been cited as being involved in weapons deals that have been confiscated by authorities. Large bounty.
The Count is a financial consultant to medium sized corporate interests, and is suspected of siphoning funds from online sources. No definitive evidence has been found however, and is publicly a benign figure. No bounty.
Labyrinth is considered a dangerous hacker, attacking databanks and servers seemingly at random. Believed to be armed and mentally unstable, labyrinth is to be approached with caution. Moderate to large bounty.
Wakazashi is a relatively small time hacker, believed to be guilty of small scale attacks on personal computers, stealing personal data or committing individual identity theft. Small bounty.

The Ekusupurōra
Description: The Ekusupurōra is a recycled deep space transport and exploration ship. Pictured above in the original advertisement, it was depicted as a massive gleaming piece of advanced technology. In truth, the ship was small and rather conventional. A few functionality issues and a large discrepancy between its acclaim and actual use led to poor sales. As an older unpopular model, Edmund purchased and renamed the Ekusupurōra for a relatively good price. No longer a shining hulk, the Ekusupurōra is a dull tan. The forward deep space comm array has been sheered off and replaced with a protective plate, rounding the nose. The model Edmund purchased holds a shorter, wider forward chassis than the advertised model, and all of the fins have been reduced to one third their original length by previous owners...
Interior Description: The interior is sparsely furnished and designed. The color scheme has been altered to reflect darker, more terrestrial themes. The is a fair sized bridge, a single bedroom, a bunk room for crew, a galley and adjoining dining area, and several rooms for storage and mechanical work.
Composition: The ship is composed of aged hardened steel elements, heat shielded with lead.
Control: The ship is controlled manually, but will make slight automatic adjustments if on a set course to correct for drift and obstacles.
Propulsion: The method of propulsion is a common combustion engine, several parts repaired or replaced over the years.
Size: Approximately 125 meters long, 50 meters high, and 50 meters wide, around 1500 tons. (comparable to the Bebop)
Number of Decks: 3 forward, two rear, with separate vertical alignments, the back two falling roughly between the forward three.
Number of Crew: One, with room for several more
Weapons: Four simple, fixed, forward mounted plasma cannons
Other Information: Edmund is one quarter Japanese, three quarters white, (French and American most prominently, as well as unspecified amounts of English, Italian, etc.) and speaks English, Japanese, and French fluently.
