Dalton Bretch
Dalton has been chief engineer of the Trexar fleets for more than a decade, and he sees the barony’s ships the same way he does his young children – they’re loud, constantly in need of attention, and every last one is precious to him.
Dr. Arvid Styrke
Dismissed as a “mad scientist” by some, Dr. Styrke has nonetheless been responsible for some of the Trexar barony’s greatest advancements in ambrosium-based technology. A military veteran as well as a man of science, Dr. Styrke quickly volunteered for Trexar’s Void Expansion forces to further his study of ambrosium.
Bryn Immershild
Captain Immershild is a highly decorated member of the Trexar barony’s elite, interplanetary police force, AEGIS. Bryn has recently been reassigned to protecting Archbaron Trexar’s personnel in the Void, and though she would rather stand guard over her home systems she will nonetheless see her new mission through to the end.
Zurmin Hewn
The brash and unpredictable Captain Hewn has a longstanding promise with the troops under his command – he will only ever shave his beard if he loses a battle. A razor has not touched his facial hair in a decade, and he means to keep it that way in the Void.
Ifuna Sharr
A spy and saboteur in service of the Trexar barony, Ilverna has a sizable bounty on her head in Visgalt, Vunhuma, and Hignös territories. Reassigned to Trexar operations in the Void, she brings her many years of spycraft to ensuring her house’s dominance in this new frontier.
Duretta Harthorn
Duretta’s grandmother betrayed Archbaron Trexar to House Visgalt years ago, costing her family its esteemed place in the Trexar barony and, more importantly, its honor. Duretta and her parents have worked tirelessly to rebuild their reputation, but Duretta knows it will likely be another generation before the Harthorn name is back in House Trexar’s good graces. She enlisted in the Void expedition not for herself, but in the hopes that her service will allow her children to be welcomed back into Trexar society.
Mertin Stockmore
The only thing Mertin was terrified of was never leaving his home planet. His home world of Amaranth had never economically rebounded once its ambrosium mines started to run dry, and with job prospects dwindling Mertin’s options were to work at his father’s business or join Trexar’s military forces and explore the Void. He has not regretted his decision.
Jorg Erduson
Beneath his imposing Trexar regalia, Jorg is a scholar at heart. His military service has helped fund his academic career, and he hopes to be a professor of history at his military academy. Being part of Trexar’s unprecedented expedition into the Void was not an opportunity he could pass up.
Dr. Lumusi Gestalt
Dr. Gestalt is a renowned military scientist who underwent an experimental procedure that enhanced her brain with cybernetic implants. She can now meld her consciousness with most ships in the Trexar fleet, making her an incredibly formidable foe on the battlefield despite her lack of first-hand military experience.

Dr. Lumusi Gestalt
Duty. Justice. Honor. It is these ideals that bind the members of House Trexar together, not any claim to highborn blood. All of modern Trexar society started from the same, lowly place, as slaves forced to mine ambrosium for a corrupt ruling family. After decades of abuse, revolution came and the ruling class were cast down by the rebel hero Droman Trexar. Trexar and his heirs were quickly made leaders in this new society, and the new archbaron had one edict – unlike their previous rulers, House Trexar would not be closed to an elite few. Any citizen, if they were worthy, could join House Trexar.
The current Archbaron, Arthram, was able to claim leadership because his own father was elevated to House Trexar for his dedication to the barony; it was a blessing his son never forgot.Traditionalist, frank, and impulsive, Archbaron Trexar has made it his goal to preserve his adoptive house’s place in history by creating an empire that will be remembered for generations. He is fair and honorable to his people, save those who would betray him – for those, there will be no quarter.
But there are now some who say that House Trexar has strayed too far from its original ideals, and that the current Archbaron seeks only to glorify himself. These claims are never more than a whisper, though, for, in House Trexar, duty, justice, and honor come before anything else, even mercy.
