Lasiter chooses the information on the Head of the A'Amon family, then the General himself.Bronan A'amon, Head of Family
(image of a tall Venasian. No distinguishing features; he looks like any other Venasian - dark hair, white skin, blue eyes with gold flecks. Wearing robes embroidered with the A'amon family crest on the sleeve.)
Birthyear: Fifth Tide Cycle, Venasian year 4309. (approximately 1500 Earth years ago.)
Education: Draneer Military Academy and College.
Service: Venasian
Raised in the A'amon family, Bronan A'amon was the middle of 3 sons. His eldest brother, Dranen, died of Gorall Syndrome early on, leaving Bronan the eventual responsibility of heading the family. His younger brother served in the Venasian navy, and is now retired. Bronan also has 2 sisters, both of whom served in the military and are now retired.
Bronan entered the Draneer Military Academy and College upon maturation, and finished both sections of the school with high honors. He entered the Venasian navy as an officer, fairly undistinguished until he came to the spotlight during the evacuation of Venase VII. While assisting in the evacuation as first officer aboard the underwater cruiser Dalek, a piece of the comet struck a volcano, causing an underground magma rupture which ultimately buried the Dalek and its crew. The commanding officer stayed behind to ensure the safe escape of his crew, but perished in the process. Bronan then rose to take his place, taking over the responsibility of ensuring the evacuation of the entire Southern Canyon population. Bronan was given a medal of distinction for his achievement, and his commanding officer a medal of honor post-mortem.
Bronan A'amon retired with several medals and honors in [Venase year] 4371. Officially, his early retirement was due to several physical problems accumulated over his career, but there is some speculation he cut short his final tour of duty due to psychological stresses. Psychiatric evaluations indicate he never fully recovered from the trauma endured during the Dalek entrapment.
After retirement, he took on the responsibility of becoming the A'amon family patriarch. He continued to campaign strongly for an initiative to find a new homeworld. Most of his petitioning, however, was turned down because most involved military strategy to seize planets already occupied by foreign races. Strong evidence suggests that after several years of frustration in this arena, Bronan began seeking assistance in other areas, most notably, ties with the L'mar, a group of radical militants whose sole purpose is to find a new homeworld. No hard proof has ever connected Bronan to the L'mar, however.
Bronan A'amon has a wife and three children - two sons, and a daughter - all of whom currently serve in the Venasian space fleet.
footnote: The Venasian solar year was approximately 21 Earth years. Current year: 4380.
