HISTORY

A member of High Thunderlord Brikan's staff, Commander Irik Roval grew disgusted with the power balance between the Weaponers and Thunderers. Control of Qward had shifted to the Weaponers, who once forged the tools of the Thunderers' conquest. The High Weaponlord Varnathon was emblematic of this as he let an attack on Qward itself by the Crime Syndicate of Amerika go unanswered.

This unspoken arrangement and capitulation was acceptable for the weak-willed Brikan, though not for Commander Roval who boldly assassinated Varnathon and seized power of Qward.
