Dawn
There are not many people who can fly into a major fleet base system like Sunnydale as it was back during The War and bring the party with them. Dawn DeMarco is one of them. She arrived in Sunnydale mere days before the big kick off the Chinese had elected to receive, and that started a whole new series of balls and parties. They spread throughout the system in a matter of hours, and everybody who was somebody wanted to be there to witness the sendoff. Which meant of course that Dawn was still working. Literal years of work on her part had uncovered a deep network of war profiteers, and the big wings were coming to Sunnydale. She wanted them. She wanted them, she got them, and the War effort was never the same after that. After Sunnydale. Disappointingly few of them served actual prison time, but they paid heavy penalties in both money and political clout to stay out, and that kept the fleets flying into the Hyades for years. It really was the perfect start to the invasion.
