Pell Osgrave
Human, Dock loader
Apologetic tone even when he's right, trails off mid-sentence to let others finish his thoughts.
The Six Names. Pell wants someone else to report what he saw at the fire — he can't afford to lose his job, but he can't live with the silence either.
A Little Status. He wants to be recommended for a foreman position himself, believing it would finally earn him some respect at the docks.

Ideal
If people see I'm decent, eventually they'll see I'm worth something.
Bond
He witnessed the warehouse fire that killed six dockworkers and has said nothing, afraid of losing the only job that'll take him.
Flaw
His kindness is a liability — he'll help anyone, including people using him.
