Tarquin Vakarian

Senior Ship Master Tarquin Vakarian is a senior ship master in the Turian navy, commanding a dreadnought, and is the oldest surviving friend of the late Systems Alliance captain Yuri Chevetski. However, he would outlive his old friend, which caused him much grief over the next few years. He is also a relative of famed Turian Garrus Vakarian. He saw action during the First Contact War and later fought alongside Commander Shepard during the Battle of Earth. Following the destruction of the Mass Relays, he became a leading member and briefly emperor of the Vakarian Dynasty.
