In his mid-forties, he was struggling to engage several of the enemy at once including preserving his precious fighter strength against the Morgon pilots below. Backed by two Battle Cruisers, Shadian was instrumental in selecting the forces from the remainder of the Trevakian 9th and 10th Fleets, despatching most to earth for support and to engage the enemy Warships.
The current situation seems to indicate that the Morgons may be retreating from the planet’s surface, some of their ships departing. But with a damaged space station and limited resources, Admiral Shadian is unable to make use of the possible beckoning opportunity.
Lieutenant Malikkas
An officer in the Blue Leopards Special Operations Unit, Malikkas was missing in action (MIA), presumed killed during the naïve advance along with most of his countrymen. A Herrakian from one of the furthest, most inhospitable planets in the Trevakian Empire, the people are of deep brown, heavy skin and pure white hair. Many have distinct family markings on their cheek bones and are some of the most vicious and fearless fighters amongst the Empire.
The Blue Leopard Special Operations Unit have virtually ceased to exist as a fighting force, being completely overwhelmed in Major Hecklan’s collapsing advance as they attempted to protect the human volunteers.
Escaping from a Morgon transit camp for prized prisoners with several others, Malikkas is now the sole survivor, his other fugitives having been mercilessly cornered and more than probably slaughtered in caves and dark passages by some of the vicious carnivorous animals that inhabit Zaxon B. The once brave Herrakian, with no weapon, simply fled…his resolve and character seemingly broken by the loss of his command and so many of his comrades.
Lieutenant Kim: KIA
Character Overview: Onboard Galactic Freedom…en-route to Earth
Riaz
An asian security officer at Heathrow, by chance, Riaz was one of the first staff members aboard the alien craft. Being initially chosen to model the Trevakian marine uniform to demonstrate to the new allies, he was involved in assisting the first wounded through the transporter portal, becoming stranded on the space station above Zaxon B. Mistakenly seen as a front line soldier because of his uniform, he was ordered by military command onto one of the transports to the planet’s surface, the craft chased by Morgon fighters to a remote outpost, Contax Base. Adapting to the surroundings, Riaz now has considerable experience with the Trevakian assault rifle issued to him.
Finally reunited with his colleagues, Riaz determined that life would never be the same again and engaged by the adventure and new exciting experiences, he made the momentous decision to enlist in the Trevakian marines. He is now a serving and training soldier, much to his duty manager David Bland’s disapproval.
Shino
Philippine by birth, Shino also shares the same fate as Riaz, having ended a frantic first space flight to Contax Base. Speaking some Russian and a keen computer games player with the nickname Pheonix, Shino has learnt early that the enemy is both ruthless and terrifying. Short in stature, but tall by nature, she is a determined and self-motivated individual, so named fondly by her father after his obsession with Japanese anime comics before her birth.
It seems Shino has also been enlisted into the Trevakian marines, apparently without her knowledge by her colleague, Riaz. The two had begun to form a strong, yet boisterous friendship, although this latest change of fortune may test that relationship.
Debra Hardie
An operational supervisor at the airport, Debra had accompanied Riaz, Shino and Sam onto the Trevakian vessel after it landed. Being chosen like the others to model the off-world armour and combat uniforms, she was also mistaken as a front line soldier and sent to the planet’s surface. With a natural mothering influence and feeling responsible for the now two security officers in her charge, Debra is keen to protect them and reach safety.
Now on Galactic Freedom and finally reunited with her duty manager, David Bland, Debra was horrified to discover Riaz and Shino may have signed up.
Tregan
A private in the second Trevakian Marine Brigade, Tregan and his close colleague and friend, Mrin, were initially assigned to protect the four human earth civilians from Heathrow until their consistent stories of innocent and incorrect selection could be established. His countryman brutally slaughtered in action whilst protecting them, Tregan now holds the safety of the humans as a high priority, feeling he owes this to his now deceased best friend.
Now on Galactic Freedom en-route to earth and an uncertain future, Tregan has become rather fond of the Heathrow volunteers and is keen to protect them, intrigued by their humour and resilience.
Captain Dugachard
The Trevakian commander on the drop ship, Captain Dugachard was stranded with the humans, rapidly realising she was the senior commander at a disorganised outpost of Trevakian and allied volunteers in Contax Base. Coordinating the retrieval of personnel, she became disillusioned with the casualties and deteriorating military situation, eventually complicit in ordering a full retreat when the realisation that the defenders would be overwhelmed and slaughtered became apparent.
Now also on Galactic Freedom, Dugachard has been given command of the human volunteers and a division of Trevakian marines, responsible for not only forming an effective unit, but also now the initial drops to earth ensuring new technology is passed to the beleaguered human allies.
Jozefina Kapralova
An operational manager at Heathrow, Josefina had realised at an early stage of the air battle over England that the commercial aviation aspect of Heathrow’s business would be detrimentally, if not severely affected. Respected
