Biography
Ogan Helkkare is a rare thing in a vast galaxy: a Forge Father who has made his home within the GCPS. From his workshops on the world of Gelgar II, Helkkare has made a living using his hands and his mind to engineer everything from weapons to engine parts. Though he grumbles that neither the materials nor machinery available to him in the GCPS are the equal of what he could find in the Star Realm, his hand-crafted creations are easily superior to anything made by a corporate factory.
Ogan would, in truth, gladly return to life aboard a Ward ship. But, he cannot. He is an exile, spurned by his clan for his part in the disastrous collapse of the Forge Star being built around a star, and doomed to live a life away from his kin and kind. There is more to his tale than a failed career as Huscarl and engineer though, for Helkkare is not his birth name. Ogan was born a Krestursson and is a cousin to Lord Ingulf Krestursson, chief of his clan. Some might once have even said Ogan was the rightful heir to Lord Maggnus Krestursson. But a Helkkare is nothing and holds no titles. All he can do is whatever he must to survive amongst men.
After the latest confrontation during Operation Heracles, Ingulf Krestursson might be more open to talks with Ogan, and he has since been seen fighting alongside Forge Father strike teams occasionally. He has now found another new home and now serves as part of the well known Eiras Contract Mercenaries.
