Kallo Ver.

Kallo Ver is a Valtese 'trader' whom resides in the Shoals. He was introduced to the crew of the USS Veritas in late 2392 when he was caught smuggling the illegal narcotic, karasone, in colonial space. After a two day transit to take him to Colonial Coalition Marshals Service custody, he escaped from the Edria City marshal's office during his hand-over, quite literally slipping through the hands of his arresting officers. He was last seen heading into the Shadows, where it's presumed he has a place of residence.

He was later encountered on board the freighter Tiburon when it destroyed Yorba Station, and is the only known survivor of the incident when he was discovered by the crew of the USS Veritas in 2394.

In 2395, he suspiciously arrives at Outpost 3 to give the repair crews much needed materials and equipment to get the outpost operating at capacity again. However, in return, he asks Captain Roshanara Rahman for a favour to be repaid in future - though he claims that there are no strings attached.

Kallo Ver tests the patience of everyone he meets, being somewhat deliberately irritating to throw off his arresting officers or business partners. This tactic does not always work, however, and though it is admittedly rare, he has taken high risk situations seriously - "brave" is not generally a word that is used to describe him. Regardless, his frustrating use of language and omission to get what he wants overshadows the fact that, while he is a common criminal, Kallo is totally truthful - about everything - often to the surprise of all around him. He believes honesty to be the best policy despite his rather illegal escapdes.

Even more infuriating, Kallo uses the legal systems around him to his benefit, and is incredibly difficult to catch and keep in one place - quite slippery and a master of escapes. He is not heartless, exhibiting a generosity some would consider out of character, but there are limits to this. He ultimately values himself above all, and if he believes cutting others loose is the best way to save himself, he will do just that.

    • Sky Blake as "Just Commander Blake" - likely due to Blake's attempt to stop him from referring to her whole name and title when speaking to her during his first arrest.
    • Captain Roshanara Rahman as "Captain Ramen" - a legitimate pronunciation error on Kallo's part that morphed into his new nickname for the captain.
