a. gene labs Technically, this hall isn't restricted access, but every door down the corridor is, each with a bright declaration of the necessary clearance level on its security pad, accompanied by a peculiar screaming bird insignia. You didn't mean to wind up here -- or maybe you did, satisfying the urge to explore the base a little more. This wing is only known as "the gene labs", but all the Cetagandans have explained to you exotics so far is that these gene projects are satellite operations of one of their central branches of government. Considering that their entire culture seems to revolve around genetics, this sort of makes sense.
One door slides open with a soft pneumatic hiss, and Lady Diya d'Zefyst steps out into the hall. Her long hair, never once cut, is gathered up in a complicated ornamental hairstyle, and her haut genes make her beauty almost ethereal. The haut do, of course, always select the very best for themselves. She sees you almost immediately, and smiles tolerantly at you, although her face tightens slightly.
"Can I help you?" She sweeps towards you with a gesture. "Lost on your way to the medbay, perhaps?"
b. medbay Diya is a geneticist by trade, not a physician, but she's often found in the medbay nonetheless, conversing with the ghem officer who serves as the base's Chief Medical Officer. While he doesn't seem nervous in her presence, he averts his gaze from her even while speaking to her.
When you enter the medbay, there's a moment before her attention shifts to you, and the CMO turns as well, standing at a parade rest with his hands clasped behind his back. Diya's eyes warm with light and she smiles at you.
"Did you need something?" she inquires politely, clasping her hands in front of her as if in reverse of the CMO's posture. "You are due for a physical, aren't you? Ghem-Colonel Naru, I'll take care of this."
c. wildcard The Lady d'Zefyst is rarely seen in the mess hall and mostly keeps to the women's quarters or her labs, but on occasion she can be seen conversing with one of her science teams in one of the more common areas, or even engaging in the decidedly more ghem art form of watercolor painting, which is as close as she gets to fully engaging with ghem culture. Occasionally she stops by the grow labs to oversee their operations; head geneticist means head of every genetic project on the base, and that includes the synthesis of their food supply.
Once in a while she can even be seen taking a solitary walk outside – well, not so much a walk as an idle circuit around the base's more pleasant areas on a float chair. Ostensibly to eliminate the danger of slipping on the ice or damaging her clothes in the snow – but perhaps she misses the comforts of her old life among the haut.
