Kane

Absolutum Dominium

History
In 2021 Kane Tzeentch was one of the leading Admirals of the Terran Republic's Star Navy. Even though the organization was still in it's infancy he had helped subdue numerous Worlds for the Republic. In October of 2021 the Star Navy saw one of it's largest blunders when a Terran hospital convoy carrying wounded veterans was ambushed under the impression that it was loaded with dissidents and terrorists bound for Terra. When the truth was leaked to the public both the Government of the Republic and the Star Navy needed a scapegoat for the atrocity. Kane had originally helped plan the ambush but was later reassigned to take part in fleet maneuvers near Mars but had the entirety of the blame shifted onto him. To further solidify his guilt, the Republic issued warrants for his arrest stating that he was actually half-terran, and thus not allowed to command starships. He was charged with High Treason for knowingly breaking the statues of the Republic and bringing same onto the Star Navy.

Throughout November Kane fled the Republic and organized a fleet of like-minded outcasts, many of which were victims of similar events, raiding Republic supply depots on the outskirts of Terran territory. On December 20th he led his ragtag force of hardened rebels against the Republic, orchestrating hit and run raids all around the Sol System, practically halting intergalactic trade to the core system. The Terran Republic bulked under the lack of trade income and there were riots all across the Republic for equal rights of non-terrans. Unknowingly and because of falsified information, Kane had become a beacon of hope for non-terrans to look to. Although unintentional, this benefited him greatly as many aliens flocked to his cause simply because of this.

On December 25th - three days before the attack on Terra was to take place - a group of his captain's told the Republic detailed plans of his invasion. They supplied them everything they needed to take Kane out for Presidential pardons. The Republic accepted their offer and was able to covertly mobilize two additional fleets several light years outside the sol system in preparation for the assault. It should also be noted that in the days leading up to the assault two of these captain's were conveniently killed in Republic raids on decoy staging areas.

When the day of the attack began, Kane had 2 fleets of vessels organized into about 60 raid groups, which were 2 to 4 escorts with a frigate. Each raid group had a priority target that was randomly selected minutes before the attack started. In addition he personally commanded the best of his raiders directly on the field. Dubbed the 'Shadow Legion' because of their cloaking devices it was comprised of about 250 vessels with most of them being escorts or corvettes. His forces fell upon Terra like water on rocks and chaos ensued within the Republic ranks. Within the first hour of the confrontation it was estimated that the Terran Republic had lost as many as 400 vessels and at least 25 orbital defense platforms.

At the 2 hour mark, the Terran Republic brought in it's additional fleets, having waited for a carrier group to be present. Flanking Kane's forces, they were able to quickly overwhelm the undisciplined pirates and route them. Before the Terran Republic deployed gravity well generators to prevent escape, Kane ordered his Shadow Legion to warp, knowing that the battle was lost. Less than half the Legion was able to make the jump in time due to damage sustained during fighting or lackluster respond times. The Republic was able to track Kane's legion and engage them outside Sol. The battle was quickly over as Republic reinforcements relentlessly assaulted his forces. In under 30 minutes the remainder of his Legion had been destroyed mercilessly. His flagship, the Retribution, was severely damaged during the fighting - every major system was offline except for life support - which was failing. Kane hailed the lead Republic vessel and formally issued his surrender. The Republic Commander, his old Superior, told him that he deserved to die a traitor's death and that surrender was not an option for non-terrans. He closed the channel and ordered his fleets fire Tricobalt torpedoes at Kane's ship. An estimated 70 torpedoes exploded around the Retribution ripping a hole in the space time continuum and causing a temporal incident to occur.

Kane was found by a civilian freighter and brought to Mars for medical treatment. Blood tests matched Arkane, however when it was discovered that he was on Sevus - not Mars - ARC stepped in and transported Kane to a facility on Sevus.

Personality
