Torvald Krenn
Master Mechanist and fleet-recovery specialist
Torvald Krenn directs some of the House’s hardest fleet recoveries. He meets an impossible salvage problem with machinery, careful survey work and unmistakable enthusiasm.
Torvald contacts Aster-9 after receiving preliminary information about Saint Varos. The first exchange reveals how little the report contains and how much he wants to learn. His technical interest grows from evidence supplied to him, not unexplained knowledge of the derelict.
His recovery force enters the Keros Grave through surveyed corridors with drones, scouts, tugs and protected tenders. When Directorate fire strikes that equipment, the response is recorded as hostile action and escorts move to protect the recovery operation. Enthusiasm does not remove the logistics behind the work.
Aster-9: fellow custodian of difficult machinery; source of data Torvald does not already possess.
House salvage crews and Eikholm trainees: technical command community.
Directorate forces: obstruction and then attack on the recovery operation.
