* FridgeBrilliance: How come Avon's brother is never mentioned again? Because Blake is a ReplacementGoldfish for Avon, [[BigBrotherWorship explaining his desire]] to follow and (later emulate) Blake despite his open contempt for Blake's revolutionary ideals and moral qualms.
** The simple explanation is that Avon is a first class manipulator. You never know quite what the truth is with him.

It's "discreet". The spelling "discrete" refers to a mathematical concept.


* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Is the captain a ReasonableAuthorityFigure who threatens to report Raiker because he's gone too far, or is it just because he's worried that he'll be blamed for Raiker's excesses? On first noticing Raiker's interest in Jenna, the captain only asks that he "be discrete".

* CompleteMonster: [[WardensAreEvil Raiker]] is the sub-commander of a prison ship transporting prisoners to a penal planet. He takes a sadistic attitude towards the prisoners, welcoming them with a threatening speech that ends "[[ScrewTheRulesIMakeThem [t]here are other rules but you'll find out what they are when you break them]]." He has a [[SerialRapist reputation]] for taking female prisoners as his {{sex slave}}s for the trip, with it rumored that some prisoners are [[ThrownOutTheAirlock dumped en route]]. When his attempt to charm Jenna with offers of better treatment are immediately rebuffed, he immediately [[BeneathTheMask drops the act]] and strikes her, saying she'll come to him eventually. After an escape attempt led by Blake results in most of the prisoners being quickly recaptured but Blake and the ringleaders having control of the ship, Raiker responds by [[RevengeByProxy systematically shooting unarmed prisoners]] until Blake gives himself up. When he hears Blake has surrendered, he shoots one more ForTheEvulz. He then tries to order Jenna taken to his quarters, only to be [[EvenEvilHasStandards overruled by his superior]]. He demonstrates {{greed}} as well: He is eager for the prize money when the crew stumble upon the Liberator drifting and, when a first attempt at boarding leaves two crewmen dead and one driven insane, his response is to use [[CannonFodder prisoners]] as a SuicideMission to disable the defenses, threatening them with summary execution otherwise.

* CompleteMonster: Raiker is a sadomasochistic dictator to the prisoners. He keeps a keen eye on female convicts who can pass muster to be his {{sex slave}}s, who get dumped out of the ship when they reach the prison planet or [[ThrownOutTheAirlock en route]]. When our protagonist Blake takes over the ship, Raiker deals with this by executing the prisoners to get Blake to surrender, and then two more ForTheEvulz. He appalls even his fellow crewmates.
