Shiro Amada|Michael Ninorich|Terry Sanders, Jr.
Karen Joshua|Eledore Mathis|Ania Sakhalin
Ginus Sakhalin

Michael aids Eledore in his hovertank duties, although his mind is usually elsewhere. Michael spends most of his time writing in his journal and composing long letters to his girlfriend back home. He is clearly an artistic and sensitive young man, and not necessarily cut out for battle. However, his brains do come in handy. Michael has a great deal of respect for Shiro, having personally witnessed the commander's exploits in space.
