Key People
Jacob Cole, High PraetorJacob Cole is our fictional powerlay character.
Jacob Cole was born in 3252 on the bustling planet of New California in the Epsilon Eridani system, a popular tourist haven famed for its stunning vistas and Federation pride. Despite growing up in a place filled with the luxuries of the Federation’s finest, Jacob had little interest in sightseeing. From a young age, he was driven by a hunger for adventure and a sense of duty, often feeling out of place amidst the carefree life around him.
At 18, Jacob enlisted in the Federal Navy, eager to break free from his home system and see the galaxy beyond Epsilon Eridani's well-charted space lanes. The Navy was a brutal awakening, but it gave Jacob what he’d sought: discipline, purpose, and the chance to visit the farthest reaches of Federal space. He served bravely and steadily rose through the ranks, but the rigid structure of the Navy often clashed with his need for flexibility and creative problem-solving. In 3302, after years of service, Jacob made the difficult decision to part ways with the Navy and forge his own path.
Jacob soon crossed paths with Praetorian PMC, a newly formed Federal-aligned mercenary group dedicated to bringing order—and profit—to chaotic regions on the Federation’s frontier. Joining Praetorian felt like a natural progression; here, he found a family of like-minded individuals driven by loyalty and the thrill of battle. With his sharp tactical mind and dedication to protecting Federal citizens, Jacob quickly distinguished himself and ascended to the rank of High Praetor.
Now, as the High Praetor of Praetorian PMC, Jacob Cole is both an unyielding leader and a compassionate admiral, guiding his crew with a commitment to the Federation’s ideals. His mission goes beyond mercenary work; Jacob is dedicated to protecting the vulnerable and advancing the Federation’s influence, aiming to improve life across Federal systems and secure a brighter future for its people. In Jacob’s eyes, this is not just work—it’s a calling.
