-Rogan Sokolov was born aboard the [[last_frontier|Last Frontier].  He joined the [[guarding_troopers_headquarters|Guarding Troopers]] as an apprentice, showing strong physical ability and an unshakable sense of fairness. However, after the crash — later known as [[day_zero|Day Zero]] — his poor eyesight disqualified him from active service, a rejection that left a lasting scar on his pride.+Rogan Sokolov was born aboard the [[last_frontier|Last Frontier]].  He joined the [[guarding_troopers|Guarding Troopers]] as an apprentice, showing strong physical ability and an unshakable sense of fairness. However, after the crash — later known as [[day_zero|Day Zero]] — his poor eyesight disqualified him from active service, a rejection that left a lasting scar on his pride.
  
 Following the founding of the [[free_state_of_settlers|Free State of Settlers]], the Sokolov family settled in [[morningstar|Morningstar]], where his father and younger brother found work at the [[fogwood_sawmill_inc|Fogwood Sawmill Inc.]]. Rogan sought independence, first taking jobs as a caravan guard for the [[new_kourou_courier_service|New Kourou Courier Service]] along the [[trade_route|Trade Route]] and later working in Firetown as a freelance bouncer in the Entertainment District. His size and quiet discipline earned him steady employment at venues such as the [[saloon_gloria|Saloon Gloria]], where he became known for defusing violence before it started. Following the founding of the [[free_state_of_settlers|Free State of Settlers]], the Sokolov family settled in [[morningstar|Morningstar]], where his father and younger brother found work at the [[fogwood_sawmill_inc|Fogwood Sawmill Inc.]].
