The elevated they call us. Those who wash out of or never make it to the government capsuleer programs. Those who can't afford the neural and genetic remaking services that can turn almost anyone with the wealth into a pod pilot mind. No, we fill a different role.

Capsuleers just don't trust their own kind, and probably quite rightly. But it's far too useful to have someone out there you can trust. Hence us, hence me - the elevated. Chosen from the unwashed masses, people who might very well die on one of my ships any day this bio entry is read. But instead...uplifted and elevated. Genetically modified, cybernetically engineered, neurally conditioned. It's not really a widely advertised fact, but with the best technology money can buy - anyone can be a capsuleer. And so here I am.
