Biography
Edit
He was born around the year 1851 PD. (infodump)
In the prelude to the outbreak of war, he was responsible for establishing the Hancock Fleet Base and convincing Alizon to join the Manticoran Alliance. For this, he was promoted from Commodore to Rear Admiral ahead of schedule and assigned command of Battlecruiser Squadron 5, with HMS Nike (BC-413) as his flagship.
Sarnow was the Manticoran commander during the First Battle of Hancock and was so seriously injured in the action that he had to be returned to Manticore for extensive medical treatment. (HH3)
While he was treated, he managed to go to the space station HMSS Hephaestus' officers mess with Ernestine Corell in order to give Alistair McKeon, Tomas Ramirez, and Andreas Venizelos clues which helped them to find where Denver Summervale was hiding. (HH4)
After the end of the First Havenite-Manticoran War, he was one of what Thomas Theisman considered to be Manticore's first-rate admirals who had been put on half-pay by the Janacek Admiralty. (HH10)
After the partition of the Silesian Confederacy he was given command of the newly established Silesia Station. As the senior officer, he was responsible for the security of Manticoran territory and interests in Silesia, particularly the integration of the Silesian Confederate Navy's units into the RMN. (HH11, SI1)
