Commander Nieman is a soldier in Ferrous Corp's army. His ship is the Ferrous Corp Destroyer, FCS Deliverance.
In Episode Two, Commander Nieman went to the Mining Colony planet. He visited the Raza and confronted Two, that her crew didn't do as they where paid to do, which was to get rid of the miners. She told him that they ran into complications but he countered telling her that the rest of her crew had also attacked his men. He made her an offer to leave the planet, and her crew behind so that there wouldn't be any witnesses of what was to happen next.
