Martin

Martin Benbeck stands as a rigid elder in the Genome Colony, enforcing its isolationist dogma and eugenics principles. He interprets colony rules strictly, viewing outsiders as inferior threats that risk the settlement's engineered genetic and social balance. Benbeck opposes change and external influence, positioning himself against more adaptable colonists like Conor. His brusque manner and fear of disruption define his role as a traditionalist guardian of the colony's perfected stability.
