Shed

The Canterbury's amiable medic, easygoing about bio-gel and prosthetics, swept up in the salvage run.

Story so far

Shed is the medic aboard the ice-hauler Canterbury, a friendly, talkative crewman who tends to the crew's bodies and their pharmaceutical needs — out of Z-PRO sleeping aids, but willing to deal something "a little stronger" to anyone with the scrip. He chats with the injured loader Paj about the new prosthetic arm the company will try to cheap out on, and praises the inner-planet bio-gel that can regrow a limb perfectly, an enthusiasm the Belters around him wave off as "magic Jell-O."

Part of Holden's boarding team aboard the derelict Scopuli, Shed is among the extra eyes called to the bridge and is the one to wonder aloud where all the bodies are. He survives the destruction of the Canterbury as one of the five aboard the shuttle Knight.

Role

Medic of the Canterbury and a member of the Knight salvage crew; one of the five survivors of the ship's destruction.
