Norris Aella Aledon, Archduke of Deneb

Full title: Duke Commander Sir Norris Aella Aledon of Regina, Count Aledon, Marquis of Regina, Baron Yori .

Born as a second son to the Duke of Regina, Norris never expected to fill his father's position. Norris joined Imperial Naval Intelligence and served creditably until his brother's premature death. With his brother dead and father dying, Norris was forced to take on the responsibilities of the Duke of Regina.

Prior to the Fifth Frontier War , Norris was the head of the civil administration of the Spinward Marches. His continued contact with INI allowed him to predict the war and appeal to the Emperor for reinforcements in advance. When the tide of war turned against the Imperium, he assumed control over the Imperial fleets and successfully turned back the tide. This victory brought him both political and popular support. In 1114, Emperor Strephon officially acknowledged Norris' outstanding actions during the Fifth Frontier War by elevating him to Archduke of the Domain of Deneb. This made him the highest ranking noble on the spinward frontier.
