Information Known by Arkangel Society
Formerly a Lady Commander (and Head of Engineering) in the Imperial Navy, Octavia Viria Lupus and her Dynasty are new arrivals to Arkangel, having claimed their warrant while on salvage duty. They found an armada of ships drifting through space, now crewed only by the dead and, as a group, claimed one single ship as their own personal share of the take. With that ship, unknown to the Imperial Navy, came a Rogue Trader warrant. So now Lupus and crew are across the line, starting anew, for better or worse. But still in their Naval blues.
Lineage
Octavia Viria Lupus is the (imaginatively named) eighth daughter of the then Planetary Governor of Selix Prime (since deceased), part of the Virii - a clan of powerful planetary nobles with a nasty reputation.

Rumours
- Very precise when on duty. Chaotic drunken dervish when off duty.
- The Rogue Trader warrant was assigned by drawing lots. Lupus has never confirmed if she won or lost.
- The black sheep of her family. She failed them in some way that she doesn't like to think about.
- Likes engineering a little too much for a lady.
Quotes
- "I see the Navy finally bothered to turn up, they must have heard that the Drop Bar has some mean cocktails. Though their RT seems alright for a Blue Puke." - Cartwright
- "The difference between an upstanding Imperial fleet officer and a gleeful pirate is usually about six weeks beyond the Line. Seems about right so far." - Mac
- "Not bad for Navy. She's got a decent crew about her, and that has to count for something. Still, she'll soon learn that being a Rogue Trader is more about what you do down the gravity well than on the boat." - Lord-Captain Romeles Blair
- "Definitely the best of the bunch. And a hugger, which actually surprised and delighted me." - Stacy
- "I know what its like to deal with a stain upon the honour of the Service. No jokes or comments, if you need us, we will be there." - Cartwright
- "I've yet to interact with Lord Captain Lupus much, but we fought side by side against an invading force and she acquitted herself incredibly well. She also has beautiful guns" - Alexandra Euphemia Blake
- "Too early for me to get a proper feel yet, but her and her dynasty certainly seem competent so far. And suitably chaotic where appropriate to be a good fit for Arkangel." - Friedrich Sternenlicht
- "You already feel like you belong. Maybe you are home." - Missionary Stenberg

Inspirations: It was said once that 'Imperial Navy wear excellent swooshy coats' and that was really it. I suppose there is a dash of Kayleigh from Firefly in there, plus the Lady Captain from Treasure Planet, and maybe a little bit of Starbuck from Battle Star Galactica. But mostly it's 'swooshy coat'.
