 Ian's main task is to [[Gardening|take care of the plants]]. Also, it is important for him to acquire [[Inventory#Fruit|alien fruit]] from [[Exploration|expeditions]]. His unique ability is {{Trait|Pacifist}}, which helps protect him and all persons in the room from aggressive actions (although sometimes this may work to the disadvantage of the crew). Typically, he is considered to be a member of the [[Research|research]] team, and usually keeps his plants in the lab as well.
 Though more activity is always better, the nature of gardening makes Ian a viable [[Choosing_a_Character|character choice]] for players with long downtimes, as long as they can be around once a day on C8 or C7 (7 pm - 1 am CET).

	Ian Soulton actively participated in Mush research. An authority on the subject, and also on botany, he prepared a study into numerous extra-terrestrial species and created several hundred hybrids using plants from earth. His curiosity for fruit species is particularly evident.		Ian Soulton actively participated in Mush research.
