: There seems to be a lot of anti-Jaracz feeling, can someone tell me what the guy done to deserve it?
Jaracz is known as "The Boss" at Bethel. He's definitely a hardliner and the GB almost always goes along with what he wants. The four new GB members were all hand-picked toadies of Jaracz, and they got their positions as a reward for doing a lot of dirty work for him when they were in the lower dub ranks.
Jaracz is very superstitious abouts "demons" being everywhere, I've heard.
It would not be far out-of-line to say that Jaracz is the closest thing the society has had to a hard-nosed autocrat since Knorr.
