The gentle Canterbury medic, killed instantly when a gauss round breaches the Donnager during battle.
Shed Garvey was the Canterbury's medical technician and one of the five survivors aboard the Knight. The loss of the Canterbury destabilized him, but James Holden had persuaded him to grieve with the crew and remain their needed medic.
Held with the others aboard the MCRN Donnager, Shed fears the clinical consequences of decompression as the capital ship fights at close quarters. A gauss round passes directly through the compartment, killing him instantly. His death removes the crew's sole medical professional and makes the supposed sanctuary of the Donnager another site of catastrophic loss.
Shed was a slight, fair-haired man with limp blond hair, a gentle unsettled face, and simple shipboard medic's work clothes. This reflects how he looked alive rather than the circumstances of his death.
Shed was the Canterbury and Knight crew's medic until the Donnager battle killed him.
