Formerly in charge of a security fleet that protected major shipping routes for a Shetou house that fell apart during the initial invasion. He achieved his rank by not saying anything when his superior made a bad decision, after being told not to question his superiors. Thus resulting an open position that he happened to have documented proof of telling his superior about as evidence that he was in fact likely to do the job but better. Koda is a little cutthroat and mean due to a life of growing up in the harsh competition of a minor Shetou house, though he's not as insane as a full blooded drow at least. His competence has been verified by his continued lifespan after an encounter with the notorious Nomad pirates early into his career as a commander that got him almost demoted to an obituary notice by an upstart troll who desired his job in the aftermath.

He can be described as 'perpetually cranky' though his overall competance can't be denied. He saught new employment as the frontiers were opening up out of an interest in seeing new worlds and getting out of the ruthless politics of shetou life.
