Theus Paddox

Theux Paddox was High Lord of House Pelagia during the Imperial era. He was very young during the House Mecetti sponsored purge and downfall of his house but grew up quickly in the difficult years that followed. Within the first few years of becoming High Lord he strengthened the relationship with House Cadriaan through marriage to the daughter of Lady Bathos and by opening up the worlds of the Pelagia Province to Cadriaan financial investment. In subsequent years Pelagia, under Theus’ leadership, made efforts to establish a political coalition with House Melantha and House Barnaba by secretly instigating diplomatic talks. Theux also oversaw a significant secret military re-armament program. Shortly before the Battle of Hoth Theus Paddox's long lost brother and sister were discovered onboard the Regal Destiny starship by Captain Nils Wender and the crew of the Bright Seeker. Trad Paddox and Verinia Paddox were frozen in stasis, at the ages of 8 and 10 respectively, during the Mecetti Purge before they were discovered 20 years later.
