Tolin Ruul
The Hinge Pilot
Geban Hub
Tolin Ruul was a Jeyrhan technician working routine maintenance and labor jobs at the Geban hub alongside Varen'Nola. He is noticeably taller than the average Jeyrhan. He valued stability, diligence, and purposeful spending, and at first he questioned the value of pursuing contracts inland because of family stories from Coastal Thazvaar about what the Energy Wars actually looked like from the inside. Despite his reservations, he joined Nola in pursuing better paying contracts, starting with range training and coastal postings and building legitimate experience to avoid falsifying applications.
Wrong Airship
The basic labor ended when he and Nola accidentally boarded the wrong airship detail during a Joxi relay restoration contract in Inland Thazvaar's black zone. Amid a syndicate firefight, Tolin's composure and prior physical training allowed him to assist in egress, handle equipment, and support crewmates on the ground. He adapted to piloting quickly, starting in jumpseats and co-seats before leading assault runs, coordinating sector sweeps, timing Veykar rocket strikes, and executing air-to-ground array attacks. The mistake became a career nobody had planned for, Tolin least of all.
