Andromedus Lan
Andromedus Lan
Although only in his 40's, Andromedus is the undisputed head of the Lan Rogue Trader lineage in the Koronus Expanse. The bulk of the family's fleet is currently involved in the Margin Crusades, which has left the young but extremely capable Andromedus managing their affairs in the Expanse. The bulk of the family wealth comes from trade and material contracts supporting the Crusade effort. The Lan family has close ties with many Imperial bureaucrats and religious leaders; indeed many would say those connections are a more valuable asset to them than any mine or manufactorum.
When not aboard the Rightful Talon, Andromedus often resides in a residence on Solace Encarmine. The Lans also have permanent space at Port Wander. Andromedus has rows of elaborately braided silver hair, and augemetic eyes with irises of burnished adamantite. His sharp mind and tongue have not always won him friends among his peers, but a great many forgave him when he rid the void of the pirate vessel Tempered Steel in 799. The Lans are particularly well-connected with the Umboldts.
Rhysha Aquiarre
Hailing from the Calixis sector, Rhysha bears the prestigious name of an Inquisitor renowned for charting great swathes of the Expanse. She continued her ancestor's work in the Inquisition under an Inquisitor named Holt. It was only extremely recently that she retired from the Inquisition's and took up employ with the Lans for reasons unknown.
Rhysha is strikingly tall, with honey-colored hair usually worn in a braid. Calculating, haughty, and pious, she serves as Andromedus's Seneschal.
Mission
Beneath his synskin, the bald assassin is known to possess tech-enhancements best left unquestioned, and certainly best left uncontested. Quiet, but eerily quick with a disarming smile, it is said the Lan family bought this man's unswerving loyalty for a very high price that may not have been counted in Thrones.
Carren
An Explorator who follows Thulean beliefs, this arguably female Adeptus Mechanicus is almost entirely machine on the exterior. Her rebreather grill and limbs are exceptionally wrought from the pay of centuries working with the wealthy Lan family, although some question whether her mind has weathered as well as her body.
Derisme Alitex
This young woman possibly qualifies for the worst bedside manner in the Expanse. With a temper ever more fiery than her close-dropped red hair, Derisme's knowledge of the human form outs many Magos Genetus to shame. She has an array of exotic pistols and even more exotic poisons when circumstances call for pro-active treatment of war wounds.
