High Admiral Tholum is one Stoinia's best officers. Although he may not be Terran, his tactical prowess has gained him the rank of High Admiral. To this day he remains the only Cheunh to have achieved such a high rank. His prowess was recognised far before the Cheunh Compromise as he also was the youngest Cheunh to ever be granted the rank of Phalanx Commander.

Early Life
Tholum was born into a respected family on Csillia. His father was military officer and taught Tholum a lot about the military from an early age. He enrolled into a military high school where he excelled and even skipped a few classes. His tactical prowess was revealed and his superiors made sure that it would develop well. Afterwards he became a junior officer in the Cheunh Navy. While on a training mission to Crustai, he met Thrana, who would later become his wife.

Cheunh Military Career
As a junior tactical officer, he quickly adapted to true military life and enjoyed it at its fullest. Although such things aren't really shown in Cheunh society. In just ten years Tholum achieved the rank of Phalanx Commander of Csillia itself. This was amongst the most prestigious military positions in the Cheunh Ascendancy. However with the Cheunh expansion to the east, reports came in barbarian races and some speculated that a war between two powerful nations was taking place due to different technological debris. This resulted in a careful expansion of the Cheunh Ascendancy. Eventually they would clash with the Mardakii.

The Mardakii Threat and the Cheunh Compromise
As soon as the Cheunh had made themselves present to the Mardakii, they immediately attacked them and executed raids on the outer Cheunh colonies. Although the Cheunh were able to hold them off, they weren't able to invade Mardakii space. Things also escalated as several Mardakii Incursions resulted in occupied Cheunh worlds. It was also at this time that Stoinian Expeditionary Fleets had engaged the Mardakii and had rescued several Cheunh crewmembers. This resulted in the joint operation against the Mardakii. Tholum was made head of the Cheunh Task Force and worked closely with High Admirals Hague and Chekov. He also had several discussion with the Stoinian King. This cooperation lead to the short 6 months conflict now known as the First Mardakii Crusade. Tholum exposed the patterns in the Mardakii incursions and formulated a plan to gather the Mardakii into one place. The Cheunh would attack from the west, while the Stoinians continued their push from the east. Eventually the Mardakii Central Command was exposed at Bogo Rai and for the first time ever, the Cheunh and Stoinians had joint battle. This resulted in the Cheunh gaining high standing and respect amongst the Stoinians.
 

Because of the Cheunh's prowess, the Stoinians asked them if they wished to join their Kingdom. Eventually through much deliberation they agreed. Tholum himself was a proponent of this as his calls for a stronger military had been ignored by the politicians. Within the Stoinian system he could do this with restraints and on a much larger scale. Like most Stoinians, Tholum and his fellow Cheunh wanted order and the Mardakii had proven to be the bridge amongst these two people. Although the Cheunh Military would have to be absorbed into the Stoinian Navy. Grand Admiral William Alexander was put in charge the Navy in the new Cheunh Sector, which still retained the name of Cheunh Ascendancy. Nonetheless this tasked proved difficult due to different structures and operational protocols. For this reason Phalanx Commander Tholum was tasked with the helping of it and granted the rank of High Admiral. Tholum accepted the offer.

High Admiral Tholum
As the newly appointed High Admiral he works closely with Grand Admiral Alexander. Although Alexander is rather old and considered a great Terran Supremacist, Tholum has worked flawlessly with him. Though at first there were initial cultural differences which proved to be difficult at first. Nowadays his efforts have gained him fame and respect from both the Cheunh and Terrans. He is easily amongst the famous Cheunh, bordering Aristocra Thossok's popularity amongst the Terrans.  After ten years most of the Cheunh military has been integrated into the Stoinian on, but the question still remains if the Cheunh Planetary Phalanxes are able to retain their positions and importance. Tholum has proposed that the Phalanxes would become a branch of their own, but this has proven difficult with the Stoinian higher ups. The King however has made no comment on the Phalanxes and with the current military situation it is currently in a dead lock. He also retained his old ship the Chimaera after extensive updates.
