Luther Luangpraseut was a Solarian citizen and astrophysical analyst. In 1533 PD, he worked in the Axelrod Corporation's underground facility on the planet Beowulf. He discovered indicators for the existence of a wormhole junction in the faraway Manticore System, and informed his manager, Karen Wamocha, about them. Realizing the potential bonuses behind this discovery, she instantly promoted him by two pay grades and assigned him a new office closer to her own. She also ordered him to put all his information under the "Black Dagger" protocol, meaning it was only accessable to Wamocha, Luangpraseut, and the Axelrod Board. (MA1)
