Stephen Silk
from Lone Star Planet
A clever and insightful Solar League diplomat, initially working in policy planning, known for his frank and critical analyses under the pseudonym 'Machiavelli, Jr.' Physically, he's pragmatic and observant.

He can appear glum or thoughtful, but quickly becomes decisive and commanding when circumstances demand it. He is a 'Hooligan Diplomat' by previous assignment but becomes 'Ambassador' reluctantly.
