Vadnaa Tondagul

Vadnaa is a member of the Academics on Pyra Station. She is togrutan, and is the unnoficial leader of the academics. She is an archaeologist, and is focused on trying to make peace with Zydel Corp so that research can proceed. She is a bit of an idealist and believes that if Zydel Corporation just understood where the academics were coming from they'd be more accomodating. She is absolutely against any form of non-peaceful activism.

"Around 7 years ago, I was called to visit a small moon on the outer rim, far from here, when explorers discovered a small relic structure from an extinct species. The entire forest around it was cordoned off, only researchers were allowed. We wore hair nets and covers on our boots to avoid contaminating the site, and my team spent 8 months preserving, documenting, and studying that structure. It was just one settlement on a small moon, but we learned so much about the culture that built it; every pebble or scratch told us something. At the time I never could have imagined finding a whole world of untouched ruins... * her voice breaks, and she looks up with a fire in her eyes* We aren't even getting to take pictures of all the buildings before they are wrecked. This stupid red metal will be made into starfighters and then thrown into a scrap heap in a few years, but the knowledge that is destroyed will mean we may NEVER know who the Dharma were, what happened to them, what they cared about..."


 * She hints that she needs escort work, and at some point early on she invites them as paid escorts to help on a dive
 * Depending on when this happens, this could lead to Fleeing a building that's getting eaten by a harvester encounter
