| Post subject: | Ward, Vlad |
KHAN, CLAN JADE WOLF Preferred BattleMech: Timber Wolf An exceptional MechWarrior, Star Captain Vladimir supported the Crusader philosophy from a young age. After the Truce of Tukayyid, Vlad became the leading voice of the so-called Wolf supremists-young Wolf MechWarriors sympathetic to the Crusader cause yet fiercely loyal to their Clan. During the five years of uneasy, forced peace between 3052 and 3057, the younger Wolf warriors' discontent with their Warden Clan leaders grew and Vlad saw an opportunity to achieve the glory he believed the Truce had denied him. Along with the late Wolf Clan Loremaster Dalk Carns and a young Star Captain named Marialle Radick, Vlad conducted a secret internal investigation of ilKhan Ulric Kerensky. That investigation resulted in charges of genocide and treason against Ulric. However, the subsequent Trial of Refusal forced Vlad to choose between allegiance to his fellow Crusaders among the Jade Falcons and allegiance to his own Clan, and Vlad fought side by side with Ulric Kerensky against the Falcon forces. He witnessed the dishonorable act of cowardice and treachery by which the Jade Falcon Khan Vandervahn Chistu killed Ulric and later retaliated by killing Khan Chistu in a Trial of Grievance. The reward for his victory was the Bloodname of Ward that he had so long coveted, a Bloodname that had once belonged to Khan Phelan Kell of the Wolf Clan in exile. As the pre-eminent warrior among the Wolf supremists that make up the newly christened Clan Jade Wolf, Vlad is widely expected to become that Clan's first Khan. If he attains that position, he will face the daunting task of rebuilding the Wolf military machine and maintaining control of the systems the Wolves captured during the initial invasion of the Inner Sphere. He will be aided in this enormous endeavor by his staunch belief that the Jade Wolves are the best of the Wolf Clan, exemplars of the purest Clan traditions. |
