My point exactly. Only one starts with Q.

Feel free. You'll find some delightful stuff as you riffle through the books looking for hints. :)

Sorry about that. If someone else wants to start a new game, I'll be glad to turn it over to them.

Nyle is the only one who does not live in Houseldon.

Quiss is the only one not related to Geraden by blood.

Ruesha is the only one who is not an adult.

You do not hear, and so you cannot be redeemed.

In the name of their ancient pride and humiliation, they had made commitments with no possible outcome except bereavement.

He knew only that they had never striven to reject the boundaries of themselves.

They are all members of Geraden's family. Ruesha is the only one not of Geraden's generation.

Close enough, you obviously recognize these people. Thank goodness, VS! :)

Yuck! And I looked right at the page!

Back I go...

Sorus Chatelaine
Liete Corregio
Morn Hyland
Mikka Vasaczk
Malda Verone

See if this about covers it:

**Spoilers**

Sorus is the only one never subject to Nick, the only one to have her own ship, the only one to work for the Amnion, and the only one with a mutagen in her veins.

Liete is the only one to commit suicide for Nick.

Morn is the only member of UMCP, the only one with a zone implant or with gap sickness, the only mother, the only one subject to Angus, and the only one chosen by Warden Dios.

Mikka is the only one to serve under Morn's informal command.

Malda Verone, Captain's Fancy targ officer, is the only one who never held a command position that we know of, the only one not mentioned as ever being Nick's sex partner, the only one not to play a significant role in the story.
