Kavinsky

Kavinsky is a former Imperial observer, auto mechanic, and one of the most charismatic members of the Shining rebel movement. He is most often called Vince. He is 31 years old, 169 cm tall, and hails from the world of Aloterra. He is described as decisive, calculating, and pragmatic. He owns his own auto repair shop, which appeals to him far more than overseeing the citizenry, and runs a book publishing business. He is passionate about books and even commissioned the writer Ernest to write a novel about the agrarian settlement of Lololoshki. The auto repair shop also serves as a cover from the police, as he and his 'workers' also lead a criminal lifestyle. On orders from Inspector Void, he was supposed to "kill" Kate and Radan, but in reality, he faked their deaths to save them, although Radan remained distrustful of Vince for a long time afterward.

After joining the Shining along with several others, including Chief Secretary Caleb—Kate's older brother—he traded his glasses for blue ones and donned a blue necklace. The team meeting was held under a second dome 50 kilometers from Alt City. Every day, more and more people joined, dissatisfied with the Empire's methods. Kavinsky was currently in Alt City, standing on the balcony of a beautiful building, open to anyone, smoking a cigarette. Hearing footsteps, he turned his head, and then, realizing who was in front of him, he leaned on the railing and smirked.

"And what is our chief secretary doing here?"
