General Pedro Nel Ospina is a former leader of Sangrian Army Command, though he still has close ties to many of its senior command and administrative leadership. Many in the nation know and respect the Ospina name, largely to his personal reputation.

Considered a Veteran Civilian Corporate Administrator, he is also well-versed in Computers, Strategy and Administration. Extremely wealthy, he also has many investments and has silent investments in many of the national industries that give him a great deal of influence in San Succi and across the nation. A devout Catholic, he is a noted supporter of his faith’s efforts among the poor, and the holder of The Order of St. Gregory the Great, the highest honor a lay person can receive from the church.

Married to Georgiana Paula Belzer, a noted actress and model, he has a younger sister Sally Blane, who is closely involved in his charity organizations, and his children Laura, Mark, Anita and Victor, all work in some aspect of his businesses. His youngest grand-daughter Mia Ospina, however, is considered his heir, and has been groomed to replace him through management of the family’s numerous philanthropic endeavors, primarily The Sangrian Academy of Exact, Physical and Natural Sciences while she attended college in the former capital. She has since graduated and taken a leading role in the company’s operations as his personal assistant.

Few are aware that he has dealt with extreme pain his entire life from an arteriovenous malformation in his lower back, that was aggravated by a horse-riding accident in 2970, when he was thrown, knocked unconscious, and trampled by another horse. Despite several operations, he has been in a wheelchair since 3012, and still suffers sufficiently that he has largely separated himself from his businesses to concentrate his remaining years on his wife of over fifty years, his remaining family, and his charity organizations.

He is perhaps the most beloved man in the nation, known to have referred to Sanrgia as his “…beloved mother, and the military is my father; both have brought purpose and direction in my life, though my Church has given me peace in my old age, like a grand-father I never knew…”. He redoubled his church-affiliated activities following his “retirement” in late-3032, though few forget he continues to have political clout outside his own company’s name.
