Synopsis ~
The orphaned Joktar is on the run. A xenophobic maniac
wants him dead because of his mysterious origins. He is sent fleeing for his
life, leaving behind his life as a curiously young-looking Casino Dealer in the
spaceport of N'Yok. He is captured and shipped as slave labor to the company
run ice planet of Fenris. He escapes captivity and survives against all odds,
with the help of some of his strange genetic quirks. He falls in with a group
of freedom fighters, and finds a mysterious mentor. He thinks he is safe, but
his enemies find him again. This time he decides to fight back.
