As mentioned, Vid Gupta’s former gang now has Katrina as its leader, with its wealth funneled through her bank account. Before she learned this, she was faced with periodic choices that she made mostly at random. Her first choice was between money and drugs, with her choosing the former. Then she chose a woman over a man, both of whom she remembered as being connected with her husband. She also seems to have inadvertently caused the death of Pflx Rambo of Ventura (who remains dead). At another point, with similar lack of knowledge Dynasty chose Frzz Takol-C, the first wife of Vid Gupta, to die instead of Dynasty’s own father. An assassin using high-tech weapons of Hindi design is responsible for both deaths.
Katrina discovered that the woman she chose initially was ZsaZsa Patil, who was previously Gupta’s second-in-command and seems to have designs on controlling the gang herself. She had possession of Katrina and Quatro’s son, Phora, who has aged into a pre-teen despite only being a few months old (see below). The team rescued him and Skid’s brother Catd from her, despite numerous illusions and hints of great power that she had.
Meanwhile, Quatro’s old gang on Rimbor, the Golden Wolves, whom he had narced on leading him to join the Legion Academy for protection, has been increasingly active. They made one attempt to retrieve him, which failed, but they have been increasingly active offworld, especially on Ventura and Tau Ceti V and seem to be allied with a larger organization. Their rivals, the Emerald Dragons (to whom Ultra Boy had belonged), have also moved operations offworld, leading Science Police observers to fear that a Gang War is heating up. No doubt our team will be affected by the increasing violence around the UP.
