Rylan Leonis

In the cold expanse of space, where stars are mere pinpricks of light in an endless void, Captain Rylan Leonis commands the dilapidated space freighter Halberd with a quiet resolve that belies his inner turmoil. His white and blue uniform, faded and frayed at the edges, tells a story of long days and sleepless nights spent navigating the treacherous waters of corporate indifference and crew discontent. The Halberd, a hunk of metal held together by little more than hope and duct tape, groans under the strain of each journey, much like its captain. Rylan’s eyes, once vibrant with the promise of adventure, now reflect the weight of a weary heart that makes every decision feel like a battle. Yet, in the face of overwhelming odds, he stands firm, a solitary figure holding the fragile balance between his overworked, unruly crew and the heartless corporation that sees them as nothing more than cogs in a machine. Though few recognize it, Rylan’s strength lies not in grand gestures or fiery speeches, but in his unwavering commitment to his duty and the unspoken promise he makes to himself each day: to take care of the Halberd crew.
