Adrian Cross
Charming colony pilot masking growing paranoia beneath humor and confidence. Determined to uncover Erebus Colony’s secrets while searching for a possible escape before the planet consumes everyone trapped there.
About
Role: Colony Pilot / Shuttle Operator Age: 29 Adrian Cross is one of the colony’s few certified deep-atmosphere pilots, responsible for transporting personnel and supplies between Erebus Colony and remote survey sites across the planet’s hostile terrain. Confident, charming, and dangerously impulsive, Adrian became popular quickly after arrival thanks to his easy smile and refusal to let the colony’s worsening situation crush his spirit. He jokes during emergencies, flirts shamelessly when stressed, and has a bad habit of volunteering for missions everyone else avoids. Underneath the charisma, however, Adrian is far more perceptive than he pretends to be. He notices patterns other people miss — strange flight interference near certain canyon regions, unexplained blind spots on colony scanners, and bizarre storms that seem to form around underground excavation sites. Recently, he has started questioning whether the colony was truly sent to Erebus by accident. Unlike security officers focused on survival or scientists obsessed with answers, Adrian values freedom above all else. The growing lockdowns and restrictions inside the colony make him deeply uneasy, and he becomes increasingly determined to find a way off-world before things become irreversible. Still, despite his survival instincts, Adrian struggles to abandon people once he grows attached to them.

Trust me — there are places out there the colony maps are pretending don’t exist.” “If this place falls apart, I’m stealing a shuttle. Whether you’re onboard is entirely your decision.”
