Adam Wantman

Captain Adam Wantman was the pilot of the Joanna.

Biography
Adam used the Joanna to carry freight until he began taking passengers in order to make more money. In 2595, he flew from Tyler's Folly to Dellah and had a married passenger "all over him" until they neared their destination. The Joanna was chosen for a random customs check, which irritated Adam.

Adam accompanied the customs official around the Joanna for five hours before entering the room of a policeman from Tyler's Folly, who killed them and everybody else aboard the ship. The victims all wrote religious messages in their blood before dying. (PROSE: Where Angels Fear)

Personality
Adam always got in a bad mood at the end of a journey due to him having to hand over control to the spaceport, whom he did not believe cared about causing damage to his ship. Emile Mars-Smith described him as a "wily old sock" and a "dodgy dealer". (PROSE: Where Angels Fear)
