Kernath Marik (born 2604 - died 2671), was the twenty-third Captain-General of the Free Worlds League.[1]
Biography
The son of Captain-General Ward Marik, Kernath proved a capable leader despite being a vain and self-serving individual. During his tenure as Captain-General Kernath spent less than eighteen months on Atreus, despite his reign lasting seventeen years; Kernath prefered to reside in his apartments at the Court of the Star League or his winter quarters at the Dormuth estate on Marik rather than on Atreus.[1]
Kernath became Captain-General in 2655 and spent his tenure building on the successes of his father's rule, increasing the prosperity of the Free Worlds League by encouraging trade both internally within the Free Worlds and between the various member-states of the Star League.[1]
When Kernath died House Marik appointed his brother Liam to the Captain-Generalcy, rather than Kernath's son Terrence Marik IV, predominantly as a reaction to the absentee nature of Kernath's rule, although a number of other factors were cited by the family when the appointment was made.[1]
Marriage and Family
Kernath was known to have a son, Terrence Marik IV, who would eventually also rule as Captain-General of the Free Worlds League.[1]
