Azarhan Barracas
Grand-Marshal of Free Nam'ta
Description:
Azarhan Barracas is known as somewhat of a champion of Nam’ta’s alien minority, and one of President Ralter’s most outspoken critics. His clan has lived within the borders of the small Confederacy for nearly three centuries, having originally fled to the Nam’ta system following the devastation of Cathar during the Mandalorian Wars. Over the generations, the Barracas family carved out a legacy of industrial success, building a powerful economic base on the labor of Nam’ta’s often-overlooked alien populations.
Today, nearly half of all alien laborers within the Confederacy find employment in the vast facilities of the Barracas-Incorporated industrial conglomerate, giving Azarhan not only wealth, but a deeply loyal support base.
It was this base—primarily alien and pro-Republic—that allowed him to secure a seat in the Confederate Council of Representatives. For years he stood as one of the last remaining voices of the Republic in a political arena increasingly dominated by pro-Imperial sentiment. Barracas was a vocal opponent of the controversial Imperial security treaty that would ultimately end the Confederacy’s official neutrality.
The treaty, requiring a unanimous vote, was passed under suspicious circumstances after Barracas was hospitalized by a sudden and violent illness in the days leading up to the vote. During his absence, his Vice-Representative—since dismissed—attended the Council in his stead and voted in favor of the treaty.
News of this betrayal allegedly sent Azarhan into a furious fit, leading to a now-famous incident in which the Representative stormed out of his hospital, tore out his IVs, and dismissed his subordinate on the same day—still wearing his hospital gown. His recovery was reportedly accelerated upon his return to his family estate, prompting some supporters to accuse the Empire of poisoning him.
No concrete evidence has ever been produced to support this claim.
Since then, the story of Azarhan Barracas has taken a radical turn. As the Confederacy collapsed into civil war, Barracas emerged as one of the most prominent leaders of the Rebel movement, transforming from a political dissident into a fully-fledged corporate warlord.
Rallying pro-Republic militias, alien-rights groups, and defected Confederate units under his banner, Barracas led a sweeping fighting retreet campaign across Nam’ta Prime and Nam'ta Secunds, quickly becoming the foremost commander on the Republic side of the conflict.
Following the withdrawal of the Republic Navy from the system, Barracas was formally hailed as Grand Marshal of Free Nam’ta, the de facto leader of the embattled of the Republic-aligned government now recognized in the Senate as a legitimate state in exile. As both its military commander and diplomatic representative, Barracas has become the face of the resistance.
With Governor Ralter’s decree of total annihilation for all rebel elements and sympathizers, Free Nam’ta has been forced to harden itself into a true nation—one that knows it must either conquer or be exterminated. There will be no clemency. This grim understanding has given rise to the official coat of arms of Free Nam’ta: a green Republic banner emblazoned with the words “Freedom or Death.”
Since the formalization of his government-in-exile, Grand Marshal Barracas has spared no time turning Free Nam’ta’s patchwork of cells, militias, and defectors into a unified fighting force. With the aid of Republic volunteers, military advisors, and a steady stream of intelligence and matériel, the Free Nam’ta Army has begun to function as a disciplined, coordinated, and increasingly capable resistance against the Imperial-backed regime and its corporate collaborators.
Azarhan Barracas now stands not only as a symbol of alien perseverance, but as the single most important figure in the fight for Nam’ta’s independence. A rebel commander, a political exile, and a wartime leader driven by the certainty that survival now hinges on victory alone.
