...but may not get it! And it isn't even my birthday any more, so maybe I can't even request today.
But I've been thinking about a piece my father wrote about a play entirely cast with characters mentioned in Shakespeare who never actually appear on stage. So I was wondering about using three characters who never appear in Blake's 7, though I think I'll cheat slightly and use one who appears briefly without actually starting a conversation.
Lurgen, Valeria of Prim, and Tando. Somewhere dark (so you needn't worry about what they look like). With an embroidered emblem (I opened a dictionary at random there, and pulled out two words).

The planet had appealed to Lurgen. It sounded quiet and safe, but Prim was a misnomer. Here he was, at a party held by a local aristocrat, one Valeria, an aging predator. And one of the other guests, an unshaven brute, was a bounty hunter. Lurgen, his hand over the embroidered Federation emblem on his chest, sidled over to the lights and switched them off. There were delighted shrieks and giggles, then he felt hands stroke his chest, lingering on the emblem, and then his face. He froze.
"Oh, damn, you're the boring doctor. I want that dangerous man, Tando."

Lurgen bought a second-hand (and very used) Goth slave called Rod from Valeria (his name had appealed to her in the Domo markets a few years before) as bodyguard, ditched the Fed uniform, although it had commanded a certain amount of fear and respect, and went back to Rod's homeworld because it sounded romantic and Rod said he was a prince. He was, but the life wasn't as romantically Amagon as Lurgen had thought, so he left a brainprint so Rod could still play cards with him, and decided to try Betafarl. After all, he was a Beta himself and he thought it might be full of techs.

"So. You're developing a teleport, Dorian."
"That's right. And all I'd want in turn is some...fresh meat."
Servalan twirled her red plastic flower. "Would the Liberator crew do?"
