Lord Admirals
The lord-admiral is in command of the entire navy, the only superior to him is the empire's current leader.

Larnus Vontarion
Main Article: Larnus Vontarion "Blades and rifles have never been my style. When it comes to starships, things change."
 * Race: Draconis
 * Age: 294
 * Responsability: Imperial Talon Navy

Larnus is considered a military genius. A strategist through-and-through and a student under the previous lord-admiral, Larnus has proven his tactical ability time and again. Born on the Balas-4 colony of Pashandar III and was very nearly a Blood dragon. Like many officers he served in the Mecha-Wasp war but what set him apart was his tactical knowledge.

He is an old friend and mentor to Paragon Uriel and the two have been inseperable since the latter's return from training at the academy. Larnus suffered an injury during the war which had left a large scar over his left cheek, considering it a sign that despite his skill he is still mortal.

Executive Admirals
Executive admirals are each assaigned a sector to govern and could be in charge of anything between 5 and 60 fleets depending on the sector's importance. Most vice-admirals serve on the security council.

Volunus Karnithus
"The honourable lord-admiral has faced pirates, renegade slaves and robot bugs. I have faced all this and more! His only claim is being Vanathis' student and we trust him with out security? Bah!"
 * Race: Draconis
 * Age:321
 * Responsability: Sector Ohlon-4

Volunus was a fleet-child; he was born aboard the TNSS Kabevek of the 310th fleet and despite his mother relocating to a quiet planet in the Balas-7-Khurnek subsector. When he was 38 the planet was raided by the Sons of Urzgov who, at the time, were secretly bribed by the Kothi collective. At the time he was registered into military service it was discovered that the raid of his homeworld was backed by the Kothi. Joining fifteen other fleets the empire invaded Kothi space in retaliation, enslaving any who were not connected to the collective's neural network and executing those who were on account of fanatical loyalty.

Like his fellow executive admiral Olassa Vatecus, he has always been bitter that Vontarion was chosen as lord-admiral. In his case it was because he believes it should have been him and frequently stating the above comment. The only thing that has so far stopped him from disgracing his superior is his unquestioning respect for the chain of of command.

Olassa Vatecus
"I may be young, but I know when I see a crisis"
 * Race: Draconis
 * Age: 254
 * Responsability: Sector Ohlon-1

Born on the Ohlon-1 sector world of Nitharnus Prime, she is another vocal detractor of Larnus' rise to power. A veteren commander, Olassa has been in the security council for the best part of a century. Serving with distinction against the Sons of Urzgov and again as a commodore during the mecha-wasp war, she has known combat since the age of 21.

She is one of the more influential detractors of the current lord-admiral, believing that it takes more than connections to gain such a prestigious position and in her naivete has once or twice accused Larnus of going as far as poisioning his predecessor to attain his position. Such accusations have earned her many detractors on the entire senate. Despite all this she still respects and admires the lord-admiral out of firsthand knowledge of his skills.

Presently she has spent the last 50 years in command of the Ohlon-1 sector, but stil lremains biter for the fact her homeworld still remains devastated from the conflict

Tanus Onarsus
"The strongest empire is one founded on tradition, not the will of the present man in charge"
 * Race: Draconis
 * Age: 281
 * Responsability: Tholfame-18

A conservative commander and a recent addition, Tanus has served on the security council for 30 years since he was promoted for commanding a crucial raid against the Sons of Urzgov. With the son's powerbase in the Balas-7 sector crippled he was assaigned to his current position. His current position is to maintain security in the Tholfame-18 sector, a region nicknamed the 'twilight bridge' because of the Mathist-6 and 8 wormholes to the Twilight Sector.

Tanus has always been respectful of the lord-admiral and one of the more vocal supporters, often stating that using brash actions is an easy way to get an army killed.

Commodores
Commodores are normally assaigned to gontrol a group of fleets; either by being in charge of fleets in a subsector or assaigned a particular group of fleets. it is rare but not unheard of for a commodore to have a seat on the security council.

Arnas Volkamen
Main article: Arnas Volkamen "I'm an officer in his majesty's navy; He orders, I go."
 * Race: Draconis
 * Age: 127
 * Responsability: TNSS Colonis

Were it not for first contact with the New Wental she may have just faded into obscurity as just one among millions of captains in the navy. That and an eternal dispute of whether or not her family are descendants of Selua Akranvir. Her career is one of fighting pirates, terrorists and aiding colonists and as much as she wanted to, did not serve in the navies fighting the Mecha-Wasps.

Her reputation is not helped by her personality. Although a competent commander she is known to break character around her superiors, quickly changing from boastful to downright nervous despite gaining the personal attention of lord-admiral Vontarion. The lord-admiral himself unveiled that the ship she had last served on (and so heroically saved) would be her newest command and she has been grateful ever since.
