History

Oskar Marlberg was born to a whaling family in Brekkim and began a naval career in 1900 at age 18. By the outset of the Great War he had become an officer in the Fleet Logistics Section. This unit would experience large expansions during the conflict as the Kingdom became a source and transit hub for industrial goods, raw material, and military manpower throughout the north Cerenarian region. As an already established professional within the Section, Marlberg enjoyed a meteoric rise through its ranks over the years long war, particularly as the unit was considered to be largely unglamorous and was often avoided by better-connected military and aristocratic families. By the end of the war however, the FLS faced the prospect of peacetime force reductions and Marlberg himself was among those dismissed.

Sensing an opportunity in the large numbers of decommissioned vessels, Marlberg used his contacts within the FLS to arrange for his own family's business to purchase ships cheaply and before potential competitors in what historians have called "One of the most brazen acts of corruption in Cryrian military history."
