The following information has not been confirmed by Volition
and is therefore not canon for the FreeSpace universe. Also, it may contain spoilers regarding Series Resurrecta campaigns.


This article groups basic information concerning famous persons within Series Resurrecta continuities, and should not be confused with the article referring to canon famous persons. The article also groups characters mentioned in each campaign's fictions as part of said continuities.

The interview is perceived as a sign of hope among all Terrans who got cut off from Sol.

Arne Finsen

Captain Arne Finsen is the Squadron Leader of the 144th Ghost Dolphins. Most details concerning her can be found in Tales of a Reporter.
