Dramatis Personae

Pedro Garcia Luz Batista: missionary in Wauwai that discovers Clark’s body.

Gerald Wallace Clark: Special Forces. He lost one arm to a sniper. He went on the expedition with Dr. Carl Rand, and disappeared for four years. When he comes out of the jungle, he has two arms.

Marshall O’Brien: Head of the Directorate Environmental Center. He’s a towering man with silver-gray hair, and always to the point. His size makes him dwarf his executive desk. He was in the running for the head of the CIA, but bristled too many Senators. He ended up becoming a token figurehead as the head of the DEC. Married to Lauren with children Kelly and Frank. He’s 54 years old with bluish-hazel eyes.

George Fielding: Deputy Director of the CIA.

Nathan (Nate) Rand: Works as an ethnobotanist in the jungles of the Amazon basin. Has the nickname of Joko Basho (Brother Monkey). Mother died of an unknown jungle fever when he was 11, and his father, Carl, disappeared four years ago into the rainforest. He has a six-foot plus frame, steel blue eyes, sandy colored hair, and a dark complexion. After his dad disappeared, he found solace in drugs and the bottle. He’s cleaned himself up. He did his doctoral thesis at Harvard.

Dr. Carl Rand: Nathan’s father. Head of an Eco-tek company that was absorbed by Tellux Pharmaceuticals after he disappeared into the jungle four years ago.

Tor-tor: Two-year-old jaguar. Rescued by Manuel Azevedo, it was named after the Arawak Indian word for ghost. Poachers killed its mother.

Manuel (Manny) Azevedo: 32 years old. He’s training Tor-tor to be a hunter before he must release her into the wild. Half Indian and an orphan on the streets of Barcellas along the banks of the Amazon River, he was taken in by a missionary. He has a degree in biology at the University of Sao Paollo, and the Brazilian Indian Foundation (FUNAI) sponsored his scholarship. He’s now the head of the local FUNAI office. He’s stocky, black-haired, and carries a bullwhip by his side.

Kelly O’Brien: Daughter of Lauren and Marshall, and Frank is her brother. American doctor who works for MEDEA. She has a trace of a Boston accent, a splash of freckles on her face, and emerald green eyes with a hint of gold. Has a six-year-old daughter named Jessie.

Frank O’Brien: Kelly’s brother. He’s a tall redhead and works for the CIA.

Jessie: Kelly’s six-year-old daughter. Staying with Lauren and Marshall while her mom is cavorting about in the jungle.

Lauren O’Brien: Kelly and Frank’s mom. Married to Marshall. Works at the Instar Institute in Langley, Virginia. She gets queasy when viewing gross necropsies. She uses reading glasses, and is working on studying the disease spread by the arrival of Clark.

Professor Resh Kouwe: Strong as an ox with a compact frame. He was formerly a shaman of the Tirios tribe of southern Venezuela. Schooled at Oxford thanks to Carl Rand, he received a degree in linguistics and paleoanthropology. Smokes a pipe, and is an expert in botanical medicines and jungle diseases.
