Arreed was a male homesteader on Nimbus III who lived in the 23rd century. He was armed with a pipe gun and a knife. In 2282 Arreed had been sentenced for his role in weapons smuggling into the Federation. He was given a choice of 15-20 years in rehab or homesteading on Nimbus III. Since this was before the drought had hit, Arreed's Defense attorney recommended the homesteading and Arreed agreed that it sounded like a good idea. After the drought made it impossible to be a farmer, Arreed discovered that there were no resources on Nimbus III to make a living as a miner. This made him bitter and he vowed to make his Rigellian defense attorney suffer if he ever made it off the planet.
