Corentin Delacroix
Margrave Corentin Delacroix is the leader of the Neo-Marlinist Order of Mudhrid, an Empire-aligned minor faction that originated in the Mudhrid system. The son of the Order's previous leader, the Landgrave Arastin Delacroix, Corentin inherited control of the organisation after his father's incarceration in the Marlinist Colonies in April 3307. The Margrave oversaw the Order's resurgence in November 3307, when it recaptured the Steel Majesty megaship with the aid of Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army fighters and Aaron Whyte loyalists from the Marlinism Reformation Party, and jumped the vessel from Hyades Sector RO-P b6-2 back to Mudhrid.
Timeline
19 NOV 3307
- The megaship Steel Majesty has arrived in the Mudhrid system after being taken over by NMLA terrorists. Its original owning faction, the Neo-Marlinist Order of Mudhrid, has officially reclaimed the vessel. Margrave Corentin Delacroix, the faction's new military ruler and the son of former Landgrave Arastin Delacroix, announced: "The Steel Majesty has returned home to fulfil its destiny. Be warned: should any ships attempt to board or attack, all the former crewmembers still onboard will be executed." Senior Agent Tanya Ramirez gave a statement on behalf of ACT: "Unfortunately, we cannot take action while hundreds of innocent people remain captive. But the NMLA's effort to assemble troops, supporters and resources must not succeed. Having the Steel Majesty as a mobile base will allow them to regroup for a new campaign of terror – especially if they manage to reach Theta Seven before we do." A spokesperson for the Epsilon Fornacis Empire Group, which controls the Mudhrid system, claimed: "The hostages should be considered lost as casualties of war. We are prepared to perform our duty for the Empire once again by destroying the Neo-Marlinist threat."[1]
