Governor Toban Saroyan is the Earth-born leader of the planet Vistula in 2491 CE, a position he has held since on or about 2480 CE representing the Earth Federation's Food Directorate.

During his reign, his son Regis relocates to Earth to enter the Earth Defense Directorate's pilot training program, as part of the rift between them. Regis continually advocates for the slaves—human nomads from the Sea of Stone—to be treated like equals, while the elder Saroyan remains unswayed by such advocacy in lieu of riches and the advisements of his aide de camp, Julio.

Unbeknownst to Saroyan, Julio was in league with Kaleel, the ruler and slave trader of the Vistulan nomads, all to set Saroyan up as the straw-man enemy of the nomads. Over time and unbeknownst to Saroyan, Kaleel's power base grew and he began acquiring the military might to deploy his will: to conquer and rule over Earth. This culminates in using the nomads, who virtually have the run of the Governor's Statehouse, to employ poisoned food discs against the Defense Directorate's pilot corps in New Chicago (BR25: "Planet of the Slave Girls").
