THE TAMANIN EMPIRE
The Tamanin are a powerful, advanced and sophisticated civilization, currently uneasily united under the throne of Intan Solik of the Solikin dynasty. Under the Solikin dynasty, the Tamanin Empire is the largest single power in the Pegasus Galaxy, but there’s very little keeping them from coming apart except for the iron will and hand of the already old Empress.
CHARACTERS
Intan Solik
The Empress of Taman
"This is the Tamanin Empire. The oldest, the strongest and the most advanced civilization this galaxy has ever seen."
Intan Solik might already be old, but her personality is of pure steel. She has ruled the Tamanin Empire for over forty years, last in the line of over three centuries of rulers from the Solik Dynasty. During her reign, Intan Solik has unified the once chaotic empire under her strict rule.
Being the respected and even feared empress, Intan Solik radiates confidence, and is well aware of the authority she holds in the Tamanin Empire.
Aronan Hari
Imperial Steward
"But what is the reason for your presence in the Pegasus Galaxy, as you are apparently calling it? This looks more like an invasion force than a recon mission.”
As a very high ranking official in the close ring of the Empress, Aronan Hari has her own strong and far-sighted visions for the Tamanin Empire, and her ways are as efficient and unwavering as she is as a persona herself. She could be seen as a strategic genius, and her sharp eye for the game has gotten her far.
Nisar Ron
Oho-Theos
"There are some things I am unable to do just because you ask nicely, you know?”
As the religious head Oho-Theos and wielder of all the political power that comes wth it, Nisar Ron is an important figure in Tamanin politics and society, and he knows it. Not only is he an excellent speaker, he is also known to be beautiful, popular and very influential.
Nisar is not the easiest to get along with given his infinite self-esteem, but he holds the strings in many important issues through the traditions and ceremonial tasks his position holds.
Ifar Sonui
Head of the Saroa Clique
"It takes time to get over some things. The Tamanin are still having a hard time forgetting and forgiving some past events.”
Ifar Sonui is a former officer of the Imperial army and a notable figure in Tamanin domestic politics. He is a charismatic speaker and leader trying to push through reforms to remove many unefficient and overly traditional structures of the Tamanin Empire, and also seeks to put a stop to the enslaving of the occupied Maelstyrakh clans.
Like a true politician, Ifar is very pleasant to speak with but there’s no telling about his true feelings and thoughts.
Sukarno Afara
Head of the Rukoi Junta
"There’s also the strongest claimant, the house of Inoa. They need to be…. Defeated.”
As the former Imperial Marshall of the Tamanin Empire, Sukarno Afara is a skilled and tough leader who has excelled in keeping the occupied Maelstyrakh clans strictly under control. He is very fond of good old ways, and takes great pride in the prospering and mighty Empire, as he thinks it is in part his own achievement.
Sukarno is a rather serious and blunt personality, but sometimes that is what gets you to the position of power. He is not one to engage in small talk, but he will get things done, and he will get them done efficiently.
