Braddock Sheffield is the head of BioTech Engineering and Space Technology, Incorporated. During his high school days, before he joined the war, he had taken a dare from classmates and put a short bio on a matrimony website which showed neither his name or picture. He joined the militia only to find himself a prisoner of war, and without his knowledge implanted with a transmitter device from Sheliak.

Alaina Magarain peeks his curiosity with her expertise in biotechnology and astrophysics and answers her query, and begins the journey to the altar and the antidote for the ice treatment his father had invented that would bring a balance of seasons to the stars in the Lyra Constellation. Sheliak had never been terraformed and would become an immediate ice planet with no reversal possible without the antidote administered in a timely manner.

Vega is a Christian star, worshiping Adonai and Yeshua, and refusing to conform to the dictates of Sheliak in their proposition of implantation for the good of humankind. Vega has a strict society, but a fair one as they all fight for the freedom to worship Adonai.
