Ministry Dossier

Minister Jarrad ponders his existence.

Name: Jarrad Skinner
Titles: WarOps Minister, Director of the Office of Social Policy, 3rd Guardian of the House Magnate
Known Aliases: Jman

When the Great Buildings and Bricklayers' Guild Insurrection of '89 was neutralized by Propaganda Corps forces, the Ministry decided that an Office of Social Policy would be created for the sole purpose of preventing all future labor strikes. In order to ensure the viability of the Office, Ministry scientists embarked on a bold, and initially controversial [see "Termination report #29, Reconditioning, Governor Sanders"], campaign to engineer a super-intelligent strain of the common honey bee.

It was believed by the Ministry that controlled observation of sentient-form bee specimens would result in greater understanding of highly socialized structures. The future Minister was the 54th such altered Apis mellifica that was engineered, before the Ministry ordered an end to the operation.

Thus, "Jarrad" came into existence in the second year following the establishment of the Ministry's Office of Social Policy. Two weeks of stimulus-reflex training, plus five hours of Thought-Bind, were applied to the subject before he was instated as WarOps Minister.
