Elkor Tyno was a high-ranking official on the Royal Planet in the Breakaway Colonies. A member of the royal court, Tyno handled many more practical affairs for the empress and her family. When the Leviathan Moya arrived at the Royal Planet, it was Tyno who made contact with them. Though he initially denied Moya's crew passage to the planet during its coronation time, Rygel's former position of Dominar of the Hynerian Empire convinced him to allow the crew to the planet's surface. Cycles later, Katralla and Tyno bore witness to the Kkore and Grennij conquest of the Royal Planet.
