Verona & Earth
Secuirty Officer - Delegate & Ambassador Guard - Earth
Description
Born and raised on Verona but graduating from the Odgins Military Academy on Earth’s moon, Tunsall is quietly educated in all things about the Guraan. Humble, disciplined and observant, Tunsall serves within the Earth Ambassador Guard during a period of increasing unrest. Guided by a strong sense of duty, he often finds himself caught between competing loyalties as tensions rise between Earth, Belinea, and the wider galaxy.
While others seek power, Tunsall searches for truth, a lesson invoked from AuFa Admiral Sageo Kimmel, the man that raised him. His investigations gradually pull him toward secrets that have remained hidden since the end of the Serpian War.

Earth
Security Officer - Delegate & Ambassador Guard (DAG)
Description
The only surviving member of his family during Earth’s pandemic, Trujillo was raised as an orphan before a distant Aunt took him in. She forced him to channel his anger and temper into academics and discipline.
Despite being a troubled student, the teachers at Odgins Military Academy could not deny his equally immense talent, catching the eye of former DAG Tillman Brooks. With trusted friend Salvador Tunsall, Trujillo joined DAG but under the security umbrella of Brooks and Delegate Bird.
Trujillo combines sharp instincts with unwavering loyalty. Though often more practical than idealistic, he repeatedly places himself in danger to protect those he believes in. As political tensions escalate across Earth, Trujillo becomes increasingly involved in events far larger than either he or Tunsall expected.

Unknown
Wanted Operative - Terrorist
Description
Known only by reputation and rumor, the figure called Cryano Dragon has become one of the most elusive individuals in the Guraan. Chased by the AuFa for years, his actions have embarrassed governments, corporations, and military organizations alike. He rarely uses force, his weapon being intelligence to penetrate computer systems, remove firewalls, and accessing classified files.
Smugglers use him for AuFa security schedules. The underworld uses him for incriminating information on important, powerful people. The not so reputable establishments use him for cleaning up problems and laundering Qusar coins into Belienan credits.
Few know his true motives. Fewer still know his identity.

"Locks exist to comfort the people outside them."

Earth - Commander, AuFa
Description
Commander Nick Devanoe serves within the AuFa during a period of growing instability throughout the Guraan. Known for his professionalism, discipline, and tactical skill, he has built a reputation as a capable officer trusted with increasingly sensitive assignments.
While loyal to the institutions he serves, Nick often finds himself navigating the difficult space between duty, family, and personal conviction. As events unfold across Earth, Avola, and beyond, he becomes increasingly entangled in conflicts that challenge everything he believes about service and sacrifice.
Though many see him as a model AuFa officer, those closest to him understand that his greatest strength—and greatest burden—is his loyalty to the people he loves.

Avola – Red Ring Rise - Bisi Clan
Pilot & Resistance Operative
DESCRIPTION
Born among the mining settlements and storm-swept deserts of western Avola, Rixanja Cortes earned a reputation as one of the planet's most skilled pilots. Independent, stubborn, and fiercely loyal, she has spent much of her life navigating the dangerous space between survival and rebellion.
As tensions grow between the AuFa and the Red Ring Rise, Cortes becomes increasingly involved in the struggle for Avola's future. Though she often hides her concerns behind confidence and sarcasm, her commitment to her people and the Rise places her at the center of events that will reshape the world she calls home. One of Kaya Killian’s most trusted advisors.

Taichi Kimakawa
FACTION & STATUS
Earth - Director – Delegate & Ambassador Guard (DAG)
DESCRIPTION
Taichi Kimakawa serves as Director of the Delegate & Ambassador Guard, one of Earth's most influential organizations. Respected by politicians, ambassadors, and security officials alike, he has spent decades navigating the difficult relationship between Earth and the Guraan.
Following the death of his close friend Lachlan Devanoe during the pandemic, Kimakawa helped raise the Devanoe children alongside Annella Devanoe. To Alexis Devanoe, he is simply "Uncle T."
Calm, patient, and highly intelligent, Kimakawa rarely seeks attention for himself. While others focus on immediate victories, he prefers long-term strategy, believing Earth's future will be determined not by a single act of resistance, but by the institutions and leaders that shape generations.
