The Margrave Octan, who hailed from Nallastia, was related to the Royal Octans originating from the Darpa sector. Circa 4000 BBY, he ordered the construction of the Sun Runner a starship intended for the relocation of his family, along with 867 colonists, to the Tapani sector. Their destination was one of the six moons orbiting Fondor, which he acquired to prevent its industrial ruin, and subsequently named after his spouse, Nallastia.
Similar to the leaders of his family line, Margrave Octan accumulated his vast fortune as a hereditary space pirate, thanks to a treasured family possession: a set of three power gems. These gems were transported on his ship and used to disable magnetic defense shields, enabling him to overwhelm targeted vessels and confiscate their cargo.
The Margrave had a beard and eyes of green hue. Margravine Quenelle, also known as the Skull Queen of Nallastia, was a direct offspring of his.
