'''Jared Gypsy'''<br>
Issue: Self Worth.  Jared still feels like a kid, and often screws up.  He wonders if he has what it takes to make it with the grownups.  He has a crush on Gretchen Scott, and this doesn't help his esteem issues at all<br>

Screen Presence: 1,2,2,2,3,1<br>

Edge: Hotshot Pilot
Jared is a good intuitive pilot.  He has been flying since before he could walk.  He loves ships and there's little he can't do.

Edge: Free Space Activist
Jared is involved in the free space movement.  His involvement so far is only helping with web sites, organising rallies.  But he could get drawn deeper into some of their more suspect activities.  his involvement has taught him a lot about the more cynical side of the system, and the darker side of the way corporations work.

Connections: Ward.  Ward is Jard's AI.  He was a babysitter and educator originally, but he has evolved and learned along with Jared.  Jared sometimes chafes when Ward forgets Jared's nearly an adult but they have been lifelong friends.

Connections: Thiago Santiago.  A Spanish engineer apprentice on Ceres base, Thiago was friends with Jared during school face week (when cyber connected classes actually meet up).  Thiago lives at the hub of the outer rim, and knows a lot fowhat's going on.

Connections: Gretchen Scott.  Top student and beautiful to boot, Gretchen is an entrepreneur in her spare time, but mostly she travels with her family just like Jared.  She knows and likes Jared, and if he could prove himself and overcome his shyness maybe he could get somewhere with her.

Nemesis: Nate Rubin.  Nate is the son of a powerful executive in the Transrock corporation, who has always used his wealth and snide self confidence to put Jared down.  He is also a competitor for Gretchen's affections.  He uses his trust fund and father's influence to exploit people and make more money, and to create business deals with Gretchen. He's put the Gypsy's out of business if he could.
