For two hundred and ten years she thought she was a loyal [[Company]] woman. Then she met [[Jago Jalo]] and things started to change.

She works for the [[Company]] as a Sec-Exec, overseeing not so much the terraforming (that's primary school stuff) as the ''creation'' of planets. Completed planets are then ceremonially turned over to colonists to facilitate the expansion of the human race throughout known space.

She is also responsible for the best-selling filmy ''[[Continuous Creation]]'', which is also available as a book, now that the human race has re-learnt the secret of making paper and binding it between hard covers. (again re-introduced by Arad)

In her wilder days, she once built a mountain range in the shape of her initials and nearly got fired, which makes her sympathetic to young [[Strata-machine operators]] and their [[mixer]]s who are tempted to add unofficial little touches, like fossilized plesiosaur skeletons clutching placards that read '''''End Nuclear testing Now!'''''.

In appearance she is barely out of her twenties with very dark skin, but wears the golden badge on her forehead which announces she is a double-centenarian. (single-centenarian wear silver) That's a wig, by the way: hair is the one thing that doesn't survive rejuvenation treatment.

When Jalo turns up with what appears to be a forged [[Dayscrip]] which are so good that they threaten to undermine the economic security of the Company, a new challenge presents itself...
