Biography

Early life

Toyama originated from the Terran Hegemony world of Dieron.

Assumption of Power

Toyama took over the leadership of ComStar following Blake's death in 2819, replacing the previous corporate structure with a hierarchy based upon religious trappings and mystic rituals. Along with the change came a new title for the highest authority within ComStar: Primus. Toyama's intent behind the cultish change was to encourage the belief that the future of humanity lay in technology and communication between the realms and that only ComStar could presently provide that protection. By bestowing the employees of ComStar with a mythical aura of knowledge, Toyama hoped to protect the organization's control of the technology. If only ComStar's adepts could operate ComStar's technology, then even the "greedy" states would work to protect his people. The Star League's legacy would then be safe under ComStar's aegis.
