space opera: Fentonov

Vitaly "Adam" Fentonov is a Scientist Top Grade, working for the greater glory of the Galactic Imperium. He was recruited by the Imperium as a young scientist while still in the Academy, and has been a loyal Imperium subject ever since. Lately however, Fentonov has grown increasingly dissatisfied with the politics of the Imperium, especially in the case of its treatment of artificial life, which is one of Fentonov's specialties. He probably would have defected to the Planetary Federation already were it not been for the fact that his beloved daughter Isolde remains a loyal Imperium subject.
