President Phyronix

President Phyronix or better known as The Galactic President, was a Cazar who served as the President of the Solana Galaxy during the rampage of Dr. Nefarious. He was Captain Sasha Phyronix's father and also a big fan of Clank and his Secret Agent Clank HoloVid series, believing them to be real. He disapproved of his daughter's relationship with Ratchet because of this, thinking he was only the chauffeur that he played on the show.

When Dr. Nefarious arrived in the Solana Galaxy, The President sent Ratchet to find Captain Qwark, who now hid on Florana. He then appointed Qwark as leader of the new Q-Force (Much to Sasha, Ratchet, and Clank's dismay). When Nefarious' bio-weapons began to rampage the galaxy by attacking the population of Metropolis, the President pretended to be a robot to avoid being turned into a real robot by the Biobliterator. Also, since he expected that the whole galaxy would be turned into robots soon, he pretended to be a robot as an attempt to stay in power. Fortunately, Ratchet set everything straight before Nefarious could harm any more of the galaxy. The Galactic President was seen at the premiere of Secret Agent Clank's latest movie at the game's conclusion. He was not seen in Secret Agent Clank but he was debriefed at the end by Ms. Cute Anastasia Bot over a HoloVid Screen. In the Ratchet & Clank comic series he had been kidnapped by Artemis Zogg and forced to work on planet Zaurik as a Trillium miner.

After Ratchet and Clank defeated Otto Destruct, the Galactic President awarded the duo with medals.

In Artemis Zogg's attempt to create his own Artemis Galaxy, President Phyronix went on a goodwill trip to Polaris, but lost communication with his daughter, Sasha. President Phyronix searched the Trillium Mines on Zaurik for artifacts that could help put a stop to Artemis Zogg. After geo-swifting the planet away from Polaris and into the Artemis Galaxy, Zogg showed up. The President tryed to convince that he knows the days of Tachyon's rule taught him he can't impose leadership, but Artemis refused, thinking it was for the good of the universe. President Phyronix claimed that Zogg was more like a dictator, every bit as cruel as Tachyon and even more misguided than Dr. Nefarious. Artemis Zogg informed President Phyronix that he could become his vice president. President Phyronix refused and told Zogg that he would continue to work in the Trillium Mines. Before Artemis Zogg left, Phyronix asked him what had happened to the Markazian, but Artemis Zogg simpily answered back saying he "wised up" and suggests he does the same.
