As Bronzar's second-in-command, Tradlak is among the elite of imperial palace security.  He's loyal to Bronzar both as a friend and a boss.  Through his years as a palace guard he's also learned how to deal with the Empress' quirks, and takes her eccentricities in stride while less experienced guards have minor coronaries.

Like Bronzar, Tradlak rose through the ranks quickly, and he's still fairly young to be occupying such a high position.  He is married and will soon be starting a family.
