Plant-Manager Adisa

Adisa brought the habits of a plant floor to the bridge of Throughput. Every task has an owner, every delay has a cause, and every completed job is recorded before the next begins. Her crew finds comfort in the order, though newcomers sometimes mistake her quiet scrutiny for indifference.

She learned to manage production during a shortage that made every wasted shipment visible. When raiders began interrupting deliveries, Adisa applied the same attention to the interruptions. The raiders discovered that she could organize the dismantling of their ships with the same relentless care she once gave to a manufacturing line.

Her headwrap is always neatly folded, even after a long watch. She dislikes frantic orders and congratulatory speeches; both take time from work that still needs doing. Adisa will negotiate when an agreement keeps traffic moving. If it does not, she is prepared to make an obstacle into material.
