A Peladonian foreman in the 41st century was the father of a miner on Peladon. He had been mining Mount Megeshra for 37 years and was shocked by the quality of the trisilicate his son had found while mining, having never seen anything like it.
He was killed in the mines alongside 20 other miners by a bomb set off by Elkin and Arktos as part of their plot to take the trisilicate for themselves. (AUDIO: The Bride of Peladon)
