Talen Holt, supposedly designated as Agent X72341R and nicknamed "Bones" by Nova Terra, was a spectre and part of Project Shadowblade. He was tall, gaunt and had black hair and eyes. In 2503 he posed as a Terran Dominion ghost, one of the first called to Altara to deal with a terrorist attack. Claiming to have a PI of 6, he was supposedly a stealth interrogation expert, being able to read someone's subconscious without their knowledge. Terra was exposed to terrazine, giving her a few new psionic abilities, including sensory abilities.
