Valken Kruger

Valken Kruger is a Sordish four star general, the current chief of the Sordish Armed Forces and the chief of the Sordish General Staff. He previously served as the Chairman of the Chiefs of Staff of Army High Command and the 2nd Chief of Army Staff of the Sordish Army. He is the longest serving and the second most decorated officer in Sordland.

Kruger served in the Imperial Army before 1923, holding positions such as Colonel and Major. In 1927, he supported General Luderin’s military coup, but later turned against him after Luderin’s mass executions in 1928. He was among the group of officers who organized under Colonel Soll in the Sordish Civil War.

In 1929, Kruger was appointed Brigadier General and a member of the Sordish General Staff. He became famed for his military victory in 1933 along the Wehlen border, where his smaller brigade destroyed an entire rebel army in the battle of Zeharen. He was later awarded with the ‘White Star’ by Tarquin Soll, the highest medal that can be bestowed upon an individual by the Sordish Armed Forces.

Valken was one of the key supporters of Tarquin Soll during the 30’s and the 40’s. He became the Chief of the Armed Forces in 1945, becoming the oldest person to hold that title.
