From Randy's production notes

Things we know about the mysterious "Ronnie"

• Early-mid 20s
• We have seen him in Tharonja's twice
• First time he was arguing with a red-haired woman. She left and he had a sulk
• Second time was when he was trying to recruit Ivar (of all people). Ransom headhunted Ivar out from under him and he had a sulk
• Comes in to Tharonja's either with others (his lance/other members of his unit) or to try and recruit people
• Doesn't wear an obvious unit patch, and has actually stopped himself from indentifying his unit on at least one occasion
• When he's not at Tharonja's he hangs around in a skeezy merc bar in the bad part of the entertainment district
• Said bar has the insignias various other commands on its wall as the closest approximation it has to decoration
• Ronnie comes in here a lot to drink with his mates but also to do recruitment again.
• It seems that he's recruiting for himself. Building his own unit? Trying to build His own support within his unit?
• Bought the red-haired woman to the bar twice. First time she looked entirely disinterested and wanted to be anywhere else. Second time Ronnie was meeting a potential hire and she looked distinctly uncomfortable and like she was trying to retreat into the furthest corner of the bar and not be noticed at all
• Ronnie's unit (whoever they are) work out of an un-marked compound in a bad part of town.
• They are currently Off-world (contract, presumably) having left a week and ha half ago. All that's there now is rent-a-cops
• They do not appear to be registered with the MRBC. Given the current state of the MRBC, this is not surprising

Current Theories:

Ronnie is a member of a dodgy mercenary command, one that is likely unregistered and could have good reason to want to hide its identity. He's possibly been in trouble before for blurting out things that he wasn't meant to, and has so far only just managed to catch himself now. He is dissatisfied with his current position and is trying to either build his own powerbase or possibly build his own unit.

Because his unit is dodgy he can't recruit through the MRBC hiring halls and other legitimate venues. Because what he's doing is dodgy, he can't even recruit through his own unit. He'd be a terrible recruiter anyway.

The red-haired woman is another member of the unit. Ronnie either sees her as an ally or at least wants her as one.
