Jonathon Alekseievich Hays
[b. 2011 – d. 2066-06-02]

Jon Hays originates from a single line in my story Grandson, where I desperately needed a reason for the assassination of Goose's mother. And somehow, he kept "popping up" in my mind. When I finally considered him as a protagonist himself, I realized that by then I had imagined a whole biography for the man.
So Goose's grandpa just needed a face...

Jon isn't yet thirty in this picture. I chose the portrait age on purpose to make the family resemblance more obvious. It plays an important part in my writing.

Painfully learned truth: painting four similar eagles on four different shirt buttons of silver is almost as monstrous a task as is doing a collage involving a wheatfield!

This picture has a single reference image: a photo of Britt Ekland, starring as Ms. Holly Goodnight in James Bond – The Man With The Golden Gun. She had the face but not the manner to be Leana.

Ivan Dimitrievich Ilianov
[b: ~2037 – d. 2065-06-08]

Niko's father. Despite having just a short appearance in my story Victoria that ended with his death, he was just too fascinating a villain to go without a face.

This took over two years to finish. Ivan Dimitrievich owes me dearly for his face!

Victoria Ryan
[b: ~2044 – d. 2066-06-08]

Niko's mother. She's one of these characters that just pop up never to leave again.

Actually, the idea for this image was born the moment I saw the trenchcoat.

Possessor

Goose's cat.
Okay, this is no computer artwork of me. It's a scanned photograph of my long dead – and still missed – cat 'Schnuffi.' I created Possessor in his memoriam and I would feel odd if I alter a picture of him.
Like Poss in the stories he was really small for a tom and did look much more harmless than he was!

Venda Andar
[b. 2004 – alive]

He's the only known (and grown-up) Andorian-human halfling and the proverbial skeleton in the Andorians cupboard (of which Ambassador Waldo and a currently unidentified Terranian woman are somewhat responsible for).
To his father's displeasure he doesn't share the Andorians worshipping of the natural sciences and mathematics in general and works as a special agent for the League Service's secret division.
