Representive of Arcturus, a delegate of a committee sent to Peladon to gauge its suitability for membership of the Galatic Federation. A tiny organisation floating in a heavily protected mobile life support system. Arcturus had previously contacted Peladon's High Priest, warning him that joining the Federation would be likely to destroy much of the planet's heritage. Hepesh, the High Priest, was very worried about this and made an ally of Arcturus, finding ways to scare the other delegates away n prove to King Peladon that the federation was evil. Arctusus' real plan was to have the Martian delegate, Izlyr, suspected for the attacks an dishonoured as th two planets were old enemies. He hoped that Mars would then be forced out of the Galatic Federation.
