Klaes Ashford

Character from The Expanse by James S.A. Corey

Old OPA pirate who found honor late in life — a veteran Belter raider who surprised everyone, including himself, by choosing duty over survival when the fate of the Ring hung in the balance.

Also known as: Ashford, Klaes Ashford, Captain Ashford

What They Know

• The Behemoth is a converted generation ship — the Nauvoo repurposed as a warship, underpowered for combat but massive enough to matter
• The Ring space enforces a speed limit — exceed it and something eats your ship, which means conventional naval tactics don't apply inside
• Marco Inaros's plan to bombard Earth with asteroids will trigger a war that the Belt cannot survive — the math doesn't work no matter how many rocks you throw
• A pirate survives by reading people — knowing when to fight, when to run, and when to negotiate is more valuable than any weapon
