This article takes place in the 24th century of Distant Worlds.

Victor Dastarian and Emilia Blossom serve as the captain and co-captain, respectively, of the privately owned CRS Graviton. Victor previously served as a United LunaTerra Marine in the Saturnian orbital branch, while Emilia was a medical nurse student at the Lagrangian-2 Orbital University, known as James Webb.

"I think you understand now why I insisted you accept Lotus’ offer. During your time in hibernation, the Scientific Assembly began exploring the depths of this newly discovered Library, and within its labyrinth of knowledge we uncovered a system of unimaginable scale—a network that interconnects parts of the universe through what can only be described as a Bridge. Naturally, we couldn’t resist diving headfirst into it."

Victor Dastarian and Emilia Blossom are featured in the novellas Archangels Rise, Dragon's Fall, and The Forgotten Planet.

Appearance

Victor sports short, pale hair, high cheekbones, a defined jawline, and deep-set, light-colored eyes. His well-shaped, slightly arched eyebrows accentuate his expressive gaze, while his straight nose, full lips, and smooth complexion complete his striking features.

Emilia has delicate, well-defined facial features with large, expressive eyes that convey both intensity and warmth. Her eyebrows are neatly shaped and subtly arched, elegantly framing her eyes. With a straight, proportional nose and full, naturally expressive lips, her symmetrical features are complemented by long, flowing, slightly wavy hair that cascades gracefully over her shoulders.

Both Victor and Emilia speak with accents that lean toward Martian, with Victor occasionally mixing in elements of a Saturno-Luytenian dialect.

Background: Victor

Victor Dastarian is the second child from his father's second marriage, born into a family of militarists residing on Titan, the capital moon in Saturn’s orbital line. His father served as the captain of United LunaTerra's flagship, Fenghuang DX-1LS5, enforcing strict military discipline on all his children. Victor is also the youngest brother of Ford Dastarian, who eventually fled the Solar System to settle in Vishapakar, the capital of Barnard's Star, pursuing a vision of a better future under the workers' party—a decision he would later regret.
