Bio
Sonja Hemphill was born in the Star Kingdom of Manticore in the first half of the 19th Century PD, the daughter of a noble family. She made a career in the military, and by 1855 PD had risen to the rank of Lieutenant Commander, working on Project Gram.
At the turn of the 20th Century PD, Admiral Hemphill led the second school of tactical thought called jeune ecole, which theorized that the growing number of better weapons and technology would make the traditionalist view outdated and outmoded. With Admiral Hemphill's cousin (Admiral Janacek) as First Lord of Admiralty, the jeune ecoles were able to be in the top Navy positions. In particular, Admiral Hemphill received the chairwomanship of the Weapons Development Board, the body which oversees and directs all research and development for the RMN.
