Overview
Christer brings imposing physical presence, controlled authority and a taste for dry family humour to the frontier.
Full account
Christer enters Kestrel’s medical level with Daniel and the House reinforcements. Anton recognises them immediately; their unexpected arrival becomes a private joke at Joel’s expense.
During the covert convoy operation, Christer uses the name Chris Heron. He negotiates the Grey Nomad’s contract with Holt while concealing his House affiliation.
His broad frame, swept-back brown hair and full dark beard give him a distinctive silhouette. Reinforced House clothing and his later independent-contractor disguise serve different circumstances.
