# Peter Bemmon — The Survivors character guide

> Peter Bemmon in The Survivors by Tom Godwin.

**Role:** supporting

**Also known as:** Bemmon

**First appearance:** 0001-the-survivors

## Snapshot

A survivor whose medical or scientific expertise makes him useful and contentious, the kind of man whose knowledge earns him a seat at every argument.

## Who they are

Bemmon belongs to the generation that must keep the colony alive after the Constellation's destruction, and his skills give him leverage in a group where survival depends on what each person can contribute. His expertise puts him in frequent conflict with others over how resources and decisions should be handled. In the early to middle arc, he represents the friction between individual ambition and collective discipline, a tension that shapes how the survivors organize themselves.
