Jhosua Icehart (jo-su-ah ice-heart) was the founder and president of Icehart Corporation during the Alsakan Crisis. His economic tactics of wiping out his opponents through legal means made him feared and admired by others. His strategy created a storm of hatred of him, enough to make attempts on his life. At the beginning of the crisis, Icehart remained neutral, carrying out his usual business. When the Alsakans damaged his industries upon Ruan, Icehart voiced his discontent with the Galactic Senate.
