Sander Kiis

Name: Sander Kiis Homeworld: Denon Species: Human Career: Diplomat Rank: Imperial Senator Affiliation: Imperial Senate

Sander Kiis is the middle son of the Captain Regent and absolute ruler of Denon, Sander Andrijs. Despite lacking any formal position in the Denonese government or military, he is effectively the planet's ruler. His father, increasingly tired of day-to-day administration, defers to his son's advice on almost all matters of substance. Kiis has two brothers, but one is frequently off-planet due to his duties in the Imperial Navy while the other is a scientist with little interest in politics, giving the middle Sander son a free hand.

Kiis relies heavily on his two childhood friends, Enn Kinnas and Roos Magi, to carry out his desires, particularly those that fall on the wrong side of the law. After Enn's death during the events prior to the Assassination of Senator Jezov, he has leaned more heavily on Roos.

When Jezov was killed, Sander was appointed to take her place in the Imperial Senate. Although he now spends most of his time on Imperial Center attending to Senate business, he still keeps a firm grip on his home world, with Roos acting as his unofficial regent.

Like most Denonese aristocrats, Kiis uses his family name, Sander, first. He is a slim, boyish man with bright blue eyes, a twinkling smile and artfully messy hair. Although entitled to wear the formal robes of an Imperial Senator he usually prefers informal, even slovenly casual clothes.
