Paul Torgal

Paul Torgal was the captain of the Mongolian vessel, the Degasi, as well as the CEO of Torgal Corporation. He, alongside his son Bart Torgal and a hired mercenary named Marguerit Maida, were the lone survivors of the Degasi after it crashed on Planet 4546B. Paul had made a sudden, unscheduled detour to the uncharted planet while enroute to deliver Bart to a new deep-spacestation, where the young man was to spend the next five years as Chief Operating Officer.

During the months that followed, Paul had several arguments with Marguerit, regarding Marguerit's wishes to continue to delve deeper into the planet's ocean. Despite his protests, Paul and the others eventually ended up in the Jellyshroom Cave, and then the Deep Grand Reef. Here, they were attacked by a Reaper Leviathan, leaving Paul with no means of survival. Paul followed a light deeper, it is unknown whether he died because of lack of Oxygen, of which he was low on, or being attacked by fauna. The cinematic trailer seems to imply that he went downwards from the base and was ambushed by a Crabsquid, leading to his death.

Personality
Rather overprotective of his son, Bart, not trusting the mercenary Marguerit Maida. Extremely cautious of everything around him and rather stubborn. Still hoping to make a profit if he makes it off of the planet. He often travelled with a skeleton crew, and was known for making rash, but profitable decisions. It was such decision making that led to an unscheduled detour to the uncharted Planet 4546B.

Bart Torgal
Despite being father and son, Bart does not appear close to his father, although Paul is overprotective of Bart and often tries to get his son to agree with his decisions. Although like Marguerit, Bart often disagreed with him and claimed that Paul stopped being in charge when the Degasi crashed.

Marguerit Maida
Unlike Bart and Marguerit, Paul and Marguerit shared a very hostile relationship, with both of them arguing constantly. However, Paul knew that both he and Bart needed her to survive, and reluctantly allowed her to relocate to the Jellyshroom Cave. However, Paul did have breaking points with her, threatening to leave her behind if she interfered with his family again.
