Samuel Dravis

Samuel Dravis is the bureaucratic executive of the Post-Terran Mining Corporation (PTMC). He delivers the briefings and trivial information to the Material Defender. His non-stop chatter and lack of straightforward dialogue put the mercenary for hire off. Dravis is also not a very trustworthy person as the iron-binding unconditional contract he placed on the hire prevent him from acknowledging his basic rights and put him in indentured servitude. Ultimately Dravis is revealed to be corrupt having taken advantage of the virally infected mines to replicate that same virus for his own nefarious purposes.

Descent
The Material Defender meets in PTMC Headquarters orbiting Earth and assigns him on a mission to wipe out all virally infected mining mechs and blow up the mines throughout the Solar System. The mercenary reflects on how annoying and disorganised his superior is as Dravis goes on with trivial information. Finally after he reaches the end of the briefing Dravis has the mercenary start his mission. As the mercenary travels from mine to mine, Dravis relays newly acquired intelligence and objectives. After the mercenary blows up the final mine on Charon, Dravis informs him that he will not be able to return to Earth due to the likeliness of his ship being infected by the virus. The realisation that this whole mission was a set up from the start hits the hire and he immediately switches off his comm-link before the executive drives him mad.
