->''"Why is it that every cystipig-fucker who strolls into my town expects me to smile and shout awful friendly, 'Welcome to Fallbrook! Only nugget of paradise in this entire Law-forsaken land!'"''

* LegitimateBusinessmensSocialClub: They're just a salvage and shipping company. [[BlatantLies Honest]].

* GutturalGrowler: The rare female version, a combination of ContraltoOfDanger and EvilSoundsRaspy, she has the voice of a thug.

* NiceHat: He wears a nifty bowler hat.

-->'''Unplanned Variable''': Did you just say "wink" at me... instead of actually winking?
-->'''Mayson''': Don't believe I did, no. Wink.

Sublight is a network of "salvagers" with business ties to "transportation" and "waste disposal". A tangled web of contractors and secretive vice presidents make up their official hierarchy, leaving no one to speak on the record about Sublight's more legally-dubious activities.

[[folder: General]]

* BeneathTheMask: What comes off first as simple paranoia and over-cautiousness later gives way to complete lunacy [[spoiler: when she starts ranting about alien conspiracies.]]
* BrickJoke: If you choose to [[spoiler: not go along with her plans, [[GetOut she fires you on the spot]]. In response, you can [[IDidWhatIHadToDo defend yourself]], [[YoureInsane tell her she's mad]], or [[RefugeInAudacity ask for a referral]]. If you do the latter, [[AffablyEvil she actually sends you]] [[BenevolentBoss a referral later on]], after she's calmed down.]]
* BunnyEarsLawyer: She is a highly competent ringleader of the space-equivalent of the Mafiya and [[spoiler: is an utterly insane conspiracy theorist. Among her bizarre theories are that cystpigs are intelligent and that Halcyon is being preyed upon by aliens.]] [[spoiler:If you don't side with her on her last quest her [[VillainousBreakdown eccentricity devolves]] to the point that either Sub-light or The Board killed her to spare their reputations after she publicly raved about her extraterrestrial delusions.]]
* ConspiracyTheorist: Is convinced that there an alien conspiracy within Halcyon. It's PlayedForLaughs [[spoiler: right up until she tries to get you to commit murder to 'stop' it.]]

* EntertaininglyWrong: [[spoiler: Her entire theory about aliens.]]
* MakeItLookLikeAnAccident: [[spoiler: Should the player not go along with her plans, she'll go public with her Alien conspiracy theories until she suffers an 'unfortunate accident' at work. It's unknown if this was done by the Board in order to silence her, or her own company trying to stop her dragging its reputation down.]]

* RightForTheWrongReasons: [[spoiler: She's completely correct that all the missions she has you undertake are evidence of a vast conspiracy that The Board is desperately trying to keep under wraps, and that it does involve genetic modification. She's just too insane to accept that it's due to an imminent resource shortage and not aliens.]]
* ShoutOut: To Georgios Tsoukalos of ''Ancient Aliens''. [[spoiler: "I'm not saying it was aliens, but it was aliens."]]

* VisionaryVillain: [[spoiler: Goes off the rails as she wants to move from being the head of a large criminal organization to savior of humanity.]]

!! Fallbrook

* AffablyEvil: She's blunt but surprisingly friendly for a major member of a criminal organization. Even most of your companions admit to liking her.
* AnOfferYouCantRefuse: She wants the C&P Boarst Factory on Monarch and wants the player to obtain it for her by either straight-up murdering its owner, sabotaging the factory to force him to hand it over, or just by negotiating. She prefers the former two options.

* PetTheDog: She's implied to be an animal lover and a giant Sprat at the local animal shelter is named after her. She also sends the UV a (moderately profane) congratulation letter and a powerful sidearm if they complete the entire Sublight quest chain and get promoted to VP.
* PragmaticVillainy: While she'd prefer the simple approach of straight up murdering Clive Lumbergh to take control of his business, she'll settle for running it alongside him if the player can convince Clive to do so.

--> ''Might I interest you in a surefire scheme? Wink, wink.''

A pair of Sublight merchants who operate the Dry Goods & Sundry store near the front gate of Fallbrook. Duncan owns Duncan's Wholesome Dry Goods and mostly sells food and drugs while Lyanna takes care of Guns! Guns! Guns! And Ammo, a weapon shop.

* PragmaticVillainy: [[spoiler:Her motive for trying to save Halcyon from an alien conspiracy. She's mostly acting out of a combined sense of paranoia and a desire to be recognized as the "Savior of Galaxy." Unfortunately for her, the alien conspiracy only exists in her head.]]

* VillainWithGoodPublicity: If you complete her final quest in her favor, Lilya's ending slide reveals she gets bolstered by her reputation as [[spoiler:Savior of the Galaxy, from an alien conspiracy which actually didn't exist]], allowing her company to thrive for years to come and further blur the line between lawful and criminal.
