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.
