She's not a nice person. They introduced the character that way because her storyline is all about her growth, her learning to be something other than a killing machine; her becoming more "human". Farscape isn't really so different from Star Trek, where it seems humanity's job is to fly around the galaxy redeeming alien species, making them more human, more good. Its just that Farscape a) is far more brutal and b) redemption takes longer, its not all resolved be the end of a 1 hour episode. Plus character backslide. Its a matter of taste, but watching characters really change over the course of a show keeps my attention.Crais is scary becuase of his big old Command Carrier, his troops, and all those little Prowlers. He's also scary becuase when you think about it, he's a terrible Peacekeeper. He throws his commission away to avenge the death of a brother who, according to his own culture, he shouldn't have any special feeling for. What's great about Crais/Aeryn is there similiarities. Crais starts off far more "human" than Aeryn, willing to defy his orders out of love for his brother, yet he's the Big Bad. And Aeryn's on the good guy team, but its takes her a long time to really begin to question her Peacekeeper training.Keep watching. It gets so much better.</blockquote>
