Philip Trenduz

Philip Trenduz was an Akarvian diplomat and political ally of Adam Pyro. After graduating early from an Akarvian university Trenduz was forced into evacuation with the rest of the nation, and when they arrived in New Voldrania he was one of many young, educated people to take part in the newly reforming government. 
Because New Voldrania was already populated when the Voldranians arrived the diplomats of Akarv, led by Adam Pyro, had to do a lot of work to establish relations. While Pyro and many of the senior diplomats were able to do the bulk of the work in forming new alliances with Krolesk and Llysos, some of the Voldranian survivors such as Equis were neglected. Short handed, Pyro put his faith into Trenduz and promoted him to the Equivian diplomat.
Trenduz handled himself professionally and proved to be a capable diplomat, earning Pyro's respect. He continued to climb in prestige over the next decade, eventually earning a position as diplomat to Krolesk in 72 AE. Trenduz would remain the Krolesk'Kan diplomat for over twenty years, and was a pivotal part in Akarvian-Krolesk'Kan relations during that time. He was present in Krolesk when the Monitor Invasion began in 94 AE, thrusting the world into chaos.
Trenduz, his friend and guard Henry Khan, and other international diplomats were briefly held captive in the Krolesk'Kan embassies until they were freed by vigilante Tym Vanir, and together they traveled to Akarv where they held a summit with the representatives in the Citadel. Trenduz and the rest of the diplomats remained behind while the combatants went on to end the Invasion, but were honored as part of the group of heroes involved with the Monitor's downfall nevertheless.
Following the Monitor Invasion, Philip Trenduz resumed his activities in Krolesk. In 95 AE he, on behalf of the Akarvian government, issued a public denouncement of James Jaykay, an old enemy of Akarvs, who had seized power in the Navirian Islands. Jaykay's coup ultimately led to a war between Krolesk and Ralkeis, but a peace summit sponsored by Akarv and hosted by Trenduz and Pyro led to a tense, shaky peace agreement. In the aftermath of the "Great Navirian War" and subsequent peace summit relations between Akarv and Krolesk began to fail, and the decision was made to reassign Trenduz to Llysos, and allow Krolesk the space to sort out its problems.
