Anderson Dawes

Character from The Expanse by James S.A. Corey

OPA political boss of Ceres — a charismatic Belter leader who plays the long game with a revolutionary's conviction and a diplomat's patience, dangerous precisely because he believes every word he says.

Also known as: Dawes, Anderson Dawes

What They Know

• Ceres Station depends on Earth and Mars for water, air, and basic supplies — controlling that dependency is controlling Belter lives
• The OPA's strength is its decentralization — no single leader can be captured or killed to destroy the movement, which is also its weakness
• Fred Johnson is useful as the Belt's respectable face but his Earth military background makes him fundamentally unreliable as a Belter leader
• Political power on Ceres flows through the unions, the dock workers, and the water merchants — control those and you control the station
• The protomolecule is the most valuable object in human space — possessing it changes every equation in Belt politics
