Abandoned by their home planet, exiles in alien star systems, these Variant humans had no choice but to survive any way they could.

One of Guera's opponents has even launched a potentially deadly computer virus which could threaten the stability of humanity's interplanetary computer-linked civilization. For to unseat the Guild could open the way to incalculable riches, and would be worth any risk. . . "; 7¾" - 9¾" Tall.
