Professor Sullivan is a distinguished anthropologist specializing in Ancient Mesopotamian studies, primarily architecture. He currently heads a field-focused archaeological team based out of an office in Dallas, Texas, USA. While the professor is more of the indoors type, he does occasionally enjoy getting his hands dirty by visiting dig sites and ruins. His team is comprised of five highly skilled individuals of different academic disciplines, ethnic backgrounds, and experience.

Sullivan and his team were invited to join the 2nd OEF in late July 2056, shortly after the expedition's official start and transition of personnel. Dr. Hampstead's team (the previous OEF Anthropology Team) stands officially relieved.

After separating from the USMC, Titus applied for a position with the Apex Security Forces, the privatized and well-equipped militia owned by the Apex Corporation, and charged with guarding their employers' high-level assets. He served as a captain for a little more than one full year before being selected to command the expedition team through the Polyphemus Gate and establish a base camp.

During his time up until his special selection, Titus worked diligently on any assignment handed to him, and volunteered on every occasion to personally escort Dr. Evenway on his trips outside of Safe Haven. He eventually became the CEO's defacto bodyguard.

Charged with leading and protecting the 1st Odysseus Expeditionary Force, Commander Titus had taken on the greatest, most dangerous mission of his life. He had to carefully balance diplomacy and military strength in an effort to protect the egg heads under his charge. One wrong move could have sparked a war between a private force from Earth and an entire nation on another planet. It was no simple task.

Nevertheless, Titus' leadership is exactly what the OEF needed. Dr. Evenway and ASF Commissioner Evaline Stone both concurred that the appointed commander remain in the role for one more expedition. Will this time around prove to be as smooth sailing as the last?

Abel Schwellen is a recent university graduate but a rising star in theoretical physics. Currently, Schwellen, a polyglot, works as one of several key researchers at an international project based in West Texas, and he is attempting to resolve the problem of locality in quantum physics. This arm is only one of several in the world, with partners in Europe, South America, and Asia also assigned to this research initiative. Schwellen's team and its international counterparts hope that this project might procure an option for a kind of 'teleportation,' but what could actually come out of their research is uncertain.

Of his team, Schwellen was the last member to be invited to the second OEF. He is a late, seemingly tentative addition to the expedition, likely for his more wacky and somewhat fantastical ideas.
