I'm
glad that I bailed out Shotgun Shells, a good brewpub in D.C. only a few
blocks away from the main Freedom Mall and Schlock Mama Hospital. WolfSkunks
Sidearm (Civilian Nali), Admiral Shotgun (Army, retired), and Cmdr. Dyna
(Police, Detective) handle almost all the day by day workings, while I
concentrate on their fiances and sometimes pour a few of the drinks myself.
All of us, including Terry and Sandra, have up-to-date bartender licences.
Sidearm's a bit of an impatent Civil Enginner, who just loves to litterally
toss out the fighting idiots onto the street. Shotgun started Shotgun
Shells, but couldn't manage it very well. But shi's a knowedgeable old
coot who didn't want to age gracefully. Dyna's assigned to us, actually,
after several stressful incidents that landed hir in the hospital. We
don't pay hir, but shi likes it here; we may hire hir after shi retires
from the force. |

Aquin is a retired Army Major who's created the Celebrated Oddities Group,
a group I'm proud to be with. Why do you say that? Aquin's a vet' of the
Squishy War, and one who I saved. If you want to know how bad it was,
watch "Starship Troupers" and remove the fascist, totalitarian
nature of the military. I was there when Aquin aquired the distinct knowledge
of having a live grenade richochet back into hir waist. Go ahead and say
ouch. I was there and saved hir life, transportaling to the 4077th MASH
unit to reconnect hir spine and put in some emergency blood vessles, and
then transportaling to Schlock Mama for reconstruction. Lets just say
I ended that war within a month. Aquin's only missing hir waist -- hir
spine, stomach, intestines, kidneys, et al are rerouted through hir tail,
which produces an intresting effect. I have a feeling shi could serve
well as Babylon Alpha's newest CO as a Commander in the CMSC. |

Mehlinda's a good young friend, who interned with Cheif Justice Cricklade
and... well... the internship ended but the job continued. Shi's taking
night classes to be a fully licenced Private Investigator. Hir knack for
finding lost items, something Locator class WolfSkunks have, comes very
much in handy with CL. |

Cheif
Justice WolfSkunk Cricklade's an all knowing student, who's kind of like
a godfather to me. Shi came from an old town in England with hir name,
and is the first stable Oracle ever. That generation started the stable
Oracles, and they've been a boon to the Judical system. After a burnout
forced hir to take a coma-induced vacation, shi's scaled back the court's
schedule and instutuded several vacation perious in which shi always takes...
sometimes with Mehlinda in tow. |

Dr.
WolfSkunk Expander is Shotgun's older sibling, who became an expert surgeon,
even with the Encapsulated Surgical Unit. However, shi's been slipping
a bit since I arrived. Shi now knows better, and teaches new surgeons.
I hear shi's considering Dr. Tandin to be the head surgeon at the Sol
3 Consulate, but I also hear that the Dryger, Dr. Michail Markov, may
also be asked to join because of his skills. |

Stryker is my little sib from the same family I was born to. We've always
had an odd lot of siblings. Sib's a Historian, but also a Polymorph; when
shi had hir final growth spurt hir body split into two, connected at the
tail. Shi suffers from a mind schitzophrenia, which nicknames one body
"Yin" and the other "Yang". This is prounounced in
hir cooking for the Loft, Shotgun Shell's more refined restraunt, which
shi also manages. Boy, does shi cook! Come on, have some dinner! |

(Pic missing)
Silencer's an old buddy of RedWolf when they were training
in the CMSC. RedWolf became Special Ops, while Silencer went into the
Tactical corps, but both were part of the Big Sisters group. Silencer's
a very good swordsman, some say a natural ninja.
