- Complete Monster: Imperial Governor Aaron Snelund, from The Rebel Worlds (Flandry, #3), gets a title and position by becoming the Emperor's lover, before manipulating the drunken Emperor into posting him to some far-off sector, where Snelund swiftly becomes a terrible ruler, instituting an illegal slave trade. In one instance he punishes one alien village for not obeying him swiftly enough by impaling the village's children and forcing their parents to watch for the three days it takes them to die. Snelund later kidnaps the beloved wife of the Imperial admiral of his sector so he can rape and torture her.
