Christoph Tierny
Christoph Tierny was born on Nova Sparta in it's slow decline, into the sect of the Covenant of the Purifying Blaze. CoPB believed very strongly in predestination. In many parts of the Church, the belief in predestination drives the believe to live in the now, without thought for the future. CoPB uses it as an excuse for all manner of craziness. "It was my fate to beat you." "If it was my fate to have a job, I would have one." Christoph hated it. When his Bright Mark started flaring, his parents beat him and then sent him off to the Psychologists Foundation for his teenage years. The experience was liberating, and Christoph made plans to spend his life as a psychologist.
It was not to be; in the declining economy he couldn't make a living as a Psychologist. When his first wife left him, he gave up and started making a meager living as a journalist. The contacts he made let him get into business. Christoph found that his Psychology gave him a natural advantage, and quickly built a trading fleet. The fleet was mostly off-world when the Vaylen struck in 580. It was Tierny's ships that first brought relief supplies to th planet, much of which was paid for by Tierny himself. The supplies weren't in time to save Tierny's second wife.
Christoph was elevated to the BoD when the new Board was formed. His areas are HR and IT, both infrastructure cost centers. He has been having a very frustrating last few years. Any investment he tries to make is cut off, with only the bare support allowed. Tierny doesn't know about the League plans for the planet, although he is starting to wonder where all the money is going.
As HR head, Christoph is responsible for all outside contractors. In particular, he is responsible for working with and reviewing the military units. This is how he knows Murphid and Yordanova.
