Alex Ryson (20) was born to Samantha and Enrique Ryson on the I Sola Prospect Planetary Outpost in the Brestla System on September 24, 3286, His family had been in the Brestla System for generations and his parents were neutral when it came to politics, that was until they founded the Ryson Corporation that openly traded with the Federation and the Sirius Corporation. The company rose to the galactic stage after assisting the Empire in transporting supplies for the royal wedding. Throughout Alex's Life his parents had grown increasingly closer to the federation and had intended to move the Headquarters of their company to the Rhea System. Their plans were short lived after Alex's Parents died in a "gas explosion" at their residence some 200km from the I Sola Outpost in the Desert Dunes. Alex heard of their death while attending Pilot's Federation Flight School in the Droomi System.

After hearing of his parent's mysterious death, Alex came to the conclusion that his family had been killed by the Lavigny-Duval Dynasty for their plans to leave the Empire. He believed that their willingness to move to the federation made them a liability to the empire as they worked closely with the empire in many trade deals.

Alex Ryson remained in Pilot's Federation space until he graduated from flight school and had acquired a sidewinder, The Infinity. He had decided to remain in federation space until he had enough influence to go back to the Empire to support Aisling Duval in overthrowing Arissa Lavigny. He started the Intrepid Trading Corporation in honor of his parents and continued the tradition of material trading. The first registered trading ship under the company charter is the ITS Freeport, a Lakon Spaceways Type-6 Transporter.

Currently Alex Ryson is managing and expanding his newly formed corporation in the Menguru System. In an interview with the Local Schoening Press, Alex Ryson stated that he has plans to get a foothold in the federation and eventually make his headquarters in the Rhea System and form a second headquarters in his home system of Brestla.
