So in past Humanity Blogs we’ve taken a look at our fearless protagonist Will as well as our savvy genius/inventor Nikola Tesla .
 
So who’s this strapping fellow to my left?
 
Let me introduce Atem (pronounced “uh- tem “), a key member of the resistance force and general all-around badass.
Without giving away too much, let’s just say that Atem acts as Will’s mentor and guide and…and…well, just think of him of Han, Yoda, and Obi-wan all rolled up into one.

Ok, so maybe it doesn’t work so well with a non-hero-centric narrative like the Trek , but on the bright side, I did manage to meet my image quota for the post.

Well, you’ll just have to wait to find out.
