Aurelius

 was locked up with Romana as he was found guilty of clan-destination, the crime of having independent thoughts. This had been a law since the introduction of the Babble Network. He didn't want to join the network; he eventually joined because of his paranoia, before it became compulsory. He was to have his implant repaired. He was actually used by the Prolocture to find the rebels. When the Prolocture was overthrown he returned to his former self. (AUDIO: Babblesphere)
