Fleet Marshal Stentor was a senior Sontaran officer of the Gunar clan, and member of the Grand Strategic Council.
History
By the year 2371, Stentor was very old for a Sontaran. General Skelp believed him to be the oldest Sontaran that he had ever met. Stentor wore armor from the Koda branch, and a blue gold-trimmed sash. Stentor also carried a battle standard rather than a Sontaran baton to further indicate his rank. The battle standard doubled as a cane. His voice was raspy from age and possibly from multiple woundings. Skelp mentioned that the Fleet Marshal had not led a sheltered life, indicating he fought in many campaigns. Stentor had some vanity, as he wished to show his comrades at the Grand Strategic Council that his theories on winning the war were correct. Stentor also had great pain in his legs from his extreme age, but would not sit in a command couch whilst on the bridge, preferring instead to lean against his battle standard.
In 2371, Stentor commanded the task force integral to a long-planned operation to move into a sector of space of the extinct Tzun Empire. The operation was a complicated maneuver to draw out a Rutan fleet protecting a Rutan base in the Antares system, and then using nucleosynthesis on the gas giant Indra in the Unukalhai system, creating a miniature star and destroying the heat-averse Rutans. The Sontaran task force would then move against the unprotected Rutan base in Antares, then begin expanding out into the former Tzun worlds.
Upon arriving at the Sontaran fleet assigned to the Antares operation, Stentor disciplined the Individual commanders to improve the disposition of the fleet. He nominally oversaw the final stages of the Sontaran plan in the Unukalhai system, eventually ordering progress to be sped up, as Rutan probes were approaching.
When the Rutans jumped into Hyperspace, the Sontaran fleet fleet jumped to Antares. However, the Rutans had been informed of the Sontaran plan by The Doctor. The Rutans jumped back to Antares, surrounded the Sontaran fleet and attacked. Thus beginning the Battle of Antares.
For a while, Stentor's old genius resurfaced, and was able to hold back the Rutan fleet, inflicting many casualties while receiving many in return. He was prepared to die fighting when a decrypted Rutan transmission changed his priorities. Upon learning of this intelligence, he was about to order the fleet to a defensive position which would allow at least some ships to escape with the Intel. It was then that one of the officers attached to his staff, Karne, revealed himself as a Rutan spy and killed the old Sontaran Fleet Marshal in an attempt to disrupt the dissemination of the vital intelligence.
