'''Ves''', Jax's ambitious and ruthless twin.brother. Where Jax has often failed, Ves has often succeeded. He used to run their family's fishing company before it faced some troubles and he dropped it to find morally questionable opportunity on Trade World. He recruited Jax into Zod's gang and is still Zod's right hand. However, he's not fond of orders that don't please him, and Zod knows this, so they must maintain a balance between them.

'''Zod''', The head of a large gang. He used to be the head of a drug ring on Trade World, and employed Zod and Jax as his lieutenants before Jax was caught by a rival gang, then arrested. In the five years Jax was in prison, Zod has developed an empire and absorbed multiple gangs into his command. His motives are currently unclear, but he has a suspiciously strong grip on the mission Jax and XR have been sent on by Star Command.
