Hello, and welcome to the madhouse!
I'm already liking Oscar... I noticed a few questions and comments about him and his place in Fenspace; perhaps I can answer some of them.
Since you're planning on making him one of the early Fen (possibly one of the First Fen), it would make sense for him to at least know of the major players in early Fenspace, even if he doesn't know them personally.
He's likely to be one of the experts that the Mars Terraforming Project and the Venus Terraforming Project consult, even if only rarely.
Since he has some genetic engineering experience, he probably knows Leda Swansen, one of the first "native" Fenspace genetic engineers. He may even have worked with her, although she is a Senshi...
I think Rakhasa can work his character in quite easily, actually.
Oscar is a builder of places, a Goth, and a resident of Luna but not of Kandor – those are three things that nobody else has explored yet. He's always been there; we just haven't looked in his direction yet.
Blood Oranges are available to anyone who wants them. The Jason gives them away to people who he thinks can make good use of them, and StellviaCorp follows suit with their small orchard of Blood Oranges.

Rakhasa Wrote:So, is there something I need to change or tone down? And what kind of past relationship is he allowed to have with the protagonists? I did not paln for him to be bosom biddies with Nah Scot or something of the sort, but maybe being in speaking terms with some movers ans skahers and such.

Rakhasa Wrote:I had thought to use the blood oranges as they are, no specialist brand needed... Does Jason sell then to anyone who has the credits, or he only sells to hospitals I would need to convince him or steal the stuff? Mmm. not a bad idea, Ill add it.
