Delta Magna Colonial Refinery Crew — Organization

Description

A contingent of human settlers operating the refinery complex on Delta Magna, they act as the primary colonial force on the planet, enforcing extraction operations against local resistance. Led by Thawn, with lieutenants Fenner, Harg, and Dugeen, the crew maintains brutal discipline through intimidation and displays of force. Their operation centers on refining local resources despite Swampie sabotage efforts. When the Doctor interferes, they shift from defensive posturing to direct confrontation, revealing their ruthless commitment to preserving colonial dominance. Their expertise in refinery technology becomes both tool of control and potential vulnerability in their own minds.
