Greetings,

	A few people have asked for score card of who's who and what's 
what in Forbidden Ops. I have decided on listing who is shown up first 
and go from there. I figured it would be easier that way. This is a 
work in progress. As was Ops Chapter 3 of course. :)
	So on with the show as they say......

	Cast of Characters and what race they are 101:
	Written and Created by R. Bentley and the MLers.
	(c) R. Bentley 1996


Name: Sapphire
	Race: Kasarian. Kasarian is a race of cat people. They have the 
ability to shift between their four legged form to their two legged 
form. They're shifting ability does include shifting into a non furry 
human form but this can only be obtained once a cycle. A cycle would be 
20 human years. A Kasarian usually has long claws, superior sight and 
smell as well as telepathic abilities. In Sapphire's case she was 
telepathic but someone closed her eyes so to speak. As for if she is 
getting these powers back......
	Job: Bounty Hunter. At the moment she is not hunting anyone, she 
instead is being hunted for what she has with her i.e. her cargo.
	Status: Single. She is one a few fertile Kasarian females in the 
known space. If and when she hooks up with someone and decides to have 
offspring expect at least half a dozen lill Sapphires around.
	Allies: White Wolf, Kara Masters (MIA), Amille Wilson (MIA), 
Captain, Tanya O'Hare (KIA) and Hitomi. That is it for allies. She will 
be hooking up with Hitomi's Dragoons very soon. Her family's status is 
unknown since her mother and the rest of the crew of the Callipso are 
MIA.
	Enemies: Secoian Government or precisely the Senators who are out 
to silence any people who are not supposed to exist. Any and all 
Huntsman have been order to kill on sight any Kasarian. She has made 
some enemies over the years but they won't be showing up soon.
	Known planet of birth: Kasar V
	Ship: Aloi Jade
	Personality: Hates heights and spiders. Likes coffee ice cream, 
any kind of music, dancing and prowling around alien worlds.
	What the author has in store for her: Have her hook up with one 
of the members of Hitomi's squad. (Yay hentai villa, hehs ;).) Explain 
more of her past and why it seems the author can only seem to show that 
in a very weird dream. :) Find out what happened to her mother and the 
Callipso crew. Have her show up in the other Riders stories, yes she's 
going to be around for a little while.

Name: White Wolf
	Race: Kasarian. See race description above of race. He's more 
canine then feline. More of a trader/Han Solo/Mel Gibson character from 
Air America type then Sapphire course. Flies the seat of his little 
furry behind. Not telepathic at all, makes up for that in techno babble 
and strength.
	Job: Trader/Cargo Captain
	Status: Single, although the thought of settling down has cross 
his mind more then once. If so the offspring would most likely be a 
hybrid or more Kasarian then said other species. Males of the species 
have a strong gene. As for why he hasn't been hunted down yet, the way 
he works and does business helps much. He's been know to keep his word 
and help certain special people out of rough spots.
	Allies: Sapphire, Captain, Hitomi, T'Fravea and Tanya O'Hare 
(KIA). T'Fravea will be showing up in Chapter 3 as will the rest of his 
squad. He has a few under world connections as well who were asked not 
to be named as well as some Senators who paid the writer enough to get 
him through the rest of college.
	Enemies: Pissed off a few warlords and other bounty hunters but 
not as many as one would think. He goes more with the flow than 
anything else.
	Known planet of origin: Kasar V
	Ship: White Lightning
	Personality: Likable guy. Scoundrel sometimes, usually has a 
contact somewhere not matter what. Goes along with whatever as long as 
it doesn't get him noticed. Although recent things have happened he may 
have already been noticed.
	What the author plans on doing with him: Perhaps hook him up with 
someone, Wolf does have a nice little nest egg somewhere. Hook him up 
with Hitomi's Dragoons permanently as either third in command or 
something. Hopefully expand on his character more than just saving 
Sapphire cute behind from the Secoian hitch squad.

Name: Aaron Stolz
	Race: Secoian C-9 Pryor. Secoians usually have different color 
hair, skin, hands and are into magic. They can live about 5,000 years, 
reports of people going more than that have been called phonies. Magic 
uses can be anything from teleportation to mind reading to the creation 
of objects. A Pryor is something who is not registered from a magic 
clan, one can practice, one can use it as a living but one will never 
get into the Mages rank and file. Mages are born not trained. C-9 is 
mid level. Their powers are great, C-9's though are not known to last 
long.
	Job: Head of Customs Agents at Space Dock Baker. Soon to be on 
vacation for a very long time. Also weapons operator of the Hunter 
Dragoon (well once he gets used to her) and grand champion Spatula 
winner three years in a row.
	Status: Single at the moment. He hopes to become a C-10 which 
mean being celibate for at least three years and basically have no 
life. Although that might change, his eyes have been starting to 
wonder.
	Allies: Hitomi, Brett, X'anda of T'Fravea's Squad and Carrie 
Blackstarr of the Phantom Riders who will be showing up in Chapter 3. 
As well as those two Satyrs from Chapter 2.
	Enemies: None.
	Known planet of origin: Seco
	Ship: Crania's Hope, Hunter Dragoon
	Personality: Nice guy. Has a one track mind, once one thing 
catches his fancy he'll head down that track until he finds something 
else. His Pryor rating seems to be something he's kept on track since 
he was a child. His weapons proficiency is high along with hand to hand 
and single hand combat. His life for the last few years have been 
uneventful since trying to reach C-10 Pryor level. The Satyrs meeting 
was not by chance.
	What the author plans on doing with him: Hooking him up with 
someone, once he reaches level 10 start him on a quest of sorts. Show 
what he truly is. 
Name: Hitomi
	Race: Human. She seems to be immortal along with a C-4 Pryor 
rating. Where she picked up these traits is unknown.
	Job: Ship Captain, Second Lieutenant (Ret.) Secoian Firebird 3rd 
Flying Wing.
      Status: Single. She hopes to become mortal again so she can die 
just like everyone else. She has grown tired of keeping things safe for 
people and continuing to look over her shoulder. She seems to be appear 
in the strangest places and then disappear just as fast.
	Allies: Tanya O'Hare (KIA), Kara Masters (MIA), Captain, Mark 
Woods (MIA), White Wolf, Sapphire, Aaron, Brett and T'Fravea.
	Enemies: Windlilly, Sage, Bruce, Cryan, Gustavo and others. She 
is wanted by the Tendor government along with the Satyrs for crimes 
against the government.
	Known Planet of Origin: Earth
	Ship: Hunter Dragoon
	Personality: Quiet, usually a loner. Is a good thinker under 
pressure. Her temper sometimes gets the better of her along with her 
feelings which according to some say she has none. A good friend to 
have in a pinch, she and Wolf work well together. Falling for someone 
is not on the top of her hit parade. But you never know......
      What the author plans on doing with her: Flesh out her character 
more just like Wolf. Perhaps give her mortality back or give her 
something more then just that. Perhaps make her a keeper of a planet so 
she can die in peace. Mix one Hitomi and one T'Fravea, stir gently and 
wait for it to cool. :)

    Yep that's it for now....more to come like the rest of the cast...
