Windscorpion has shocked the Central Committee of the DDS and the DDS itself by announcing his resignation! Windy said he had had enough of "saving the galaxy" and thought it was time he stood down and got on with other things in his life. Windy named Sea Urchin the interim DDS Commander and then left GHQ taking a Coril shuttle up to SS Stoke City.
What Windy will do now is unknown. What Sea Urchin will do now is also unknown. Elections may be held next year though at the moment there is little appetite for an election campaign. One problem is a dearth of potential commanders. Sea Urchin and The Orchid are the only likely candidates, Firefly has already ruled himself out.
