Guthrie was a security officer for Pinkwater Security on Ganymede.
History[]
Background[]
Guthrie was assigned as security team member under Wendell in Pinkwater's criminal division.
Post-Ganymede Incident[]
Following the Ganymede Incident, the environmental systems of the colony were degrading rapidly and the Agricultural firms were transporting as much of their product off the moon as they could to avoid any potential losses, resulting in a local food shortage. Those concerns, combined with the threat of further armed conflict, resulted in a mass exodus from Ganymede. At some point during these events, Guthrie, along with others on his team were terminated from Pinkwater.
Without employment through corporate security, the team had no more access to off-world transportation than any other colonist. They began an ad hoc protection racket to sustain themselves in the meantime. It was while running this racket that they ran into Holden, Amos, and Prax. Recognizing their potential usefulness, the team was recruited to aid in the recovery of Prax's daughter in exchange for transportation offworld. During the effort, three of the Guthrie's colleagues were killed, and he was shot in the gut. While no children were found alive, Holden honored their deal and gave them the ship he snuck onto Ganymede with, the Weeping Somnambulist.[1]
