Fighting under Commander Brightsword that met with Colonel Schaeffer, Kage and other Last Chancers, first helping them out of a bar fight (started by Tarellian mercenaries, in which they were badly outnumbered), and then by taking them back to their camp, where he tests the mettle and loyalty of the Last Chancers by making Kage eat a Human brain. As a Shaper, he states that both Tau and Human empires are doomed by their own stagnancy and superstition, as only constant change and adaptation can ensure survival.^[1]
