Janity
SupportingA short older woman with hair more gray than dark and a wiry, strong frame. Her compact build suggests resilience and practicality, with arms that can firmly wrap around others in support or guidance. She projects the image of a seasoned survivor in a decaying space platform environment.
Janity debuts in Platform Decay as a compact, gray-haired survivor whose wiry strength and practical demeanor mark her as a stabilizing presence amid the chaos of a failing space platform. Serving as Dr. Mensah's grandmother figure (Nanna Naja), she offers quiet familial support that contrasts with the series' usual corporate threats and isolation themes. Her ties to extended family members like Farai and her father Leonide introduce layers of personal history and corporate tension, expanding the narrative's focus on found versus biological families in the later books.
