Marcus Ito

Marcus Ito previously worked on the Mars–Earth Communications Grid, where he helped manage long-distance data relays and encryption protocols. A master of quiet systems, he transitioned into deep space operations for the Aurora colony mission. His work is deeply ingrained in the ship’s infrastructure—from communication signal integrity to security routing protocols.
He was selected for Aurora not only for his technical skill, but also for his temperament: steady under pressure and slow to anger.
Marcus is emotionally resilient and capable of quietly anchoring the team through periods of stress. While not a leader by title, many on the crew turn to him in moments of doubt for quiet guidance and reflection.
