Orren Ran
by Evan Lorentz
Being the only Klaestron ENGINEER around, Orren Ran is already quite important to anyone looking to build additional Klaestron Outposts during play. He can help with a good deal more, though. Unlike many CIVILIANs, Orren Ran has a staff icon, which may come in handy for ferrying personnel between a facility and a Colony. And of course, Geology is growing more important with dilemmas like Seismic Quake and Odo's "Cousin" on the scene.
Combo:
Orren Ran + Spock + Zon + U.S.S. Pasteur: A three-personnel Kurlan Naiskos combo.
