Steve

One of the active crew members on the Project SEEDS ship that Vash and Knives lived on. He had a strong dislike and fear for Vash and Knives because they were not human, and could do his job much faster than he could ever hope to do, and was physically violent with them.

In the anime, Steve is portrayed as a lecher, occasionally groping one of his shipmates, Mary. He was falsely accused of raping Mary by her and Rolan as a way to get rid of him, a plan potentially set up by Knives. As a result, Steve was put in cryogenic stasis with out a trial and denied the chance to voice is defense to the claim. However, the freezer unit was sabotaged by a mentally unstable Rolan, which caused Steve to die.
