Alias: Veykar’Heredrin, The Investor-Founder
Era: Fracture (~2,000–1,500 Years Before Modern Geba)
Affiliation: Veykar Propulsion; Solarn lineage
Heredrin Solarn-Veykar founded Veykar Propulsion through strategic investment and capital rather than engineering expertise. As a descendant of Architect Varenth Solarn and of the same line as expeditioner Caledrin Solarn-Veykar, he transformed the Solarn lineage’s failed escape projects from the Fracture era into a thriving industry centered on speed, spectacle, and cultural influence. Leveraging his wealth, he financed ventures like ice runs across Ngorrhal, river sprints through Berinu straits, and deep-corridor scrambles off Kela’s coast, using these performances to bridge continents and reshape cultural landscapes.
Heredrin expanded Veykar’s cultural dominance by funding music genres and explosive festival performances, effectively controlling city rhythms and calendars. Historical reels depict him shaking hands with Emperor Auren at a launch celebrated more for its fiery display than its technical success, cementing his legacy. The Veykar crest, embodying speed and explosions, was passed to his modern heir Yelidra Veykar, who continues to uphold the brand’s dynamic ethos centuries later.
Records confirm his reputation as Geba’s foremost investor-marketer, his close association with Auren, and Veykar’s dominance across propulsion and the music economy.
