    The Chronicle of Yun-dol Kim

    Known aliases : Hong Gilgong, Kim Dol Sung,
    Jonathan Kim
    Notable characteristics : Ambidextrious
    Weapon : Twin falchions

    Status
    Most recent base of operations : New-York NY
    Occupation : Security guard, Schlumberger
    Prior occupations : Traveller, sailor, mercenary,
    soldier, silk merchant
    Roster of Immortals Status : Deceased
    Date : 7 February 1985
    Place : New-York NY
    Victor : The Kurgan
    Watcher : Research, Yung Dol-kim Chronicle

    Background
    Original cultural affiliation : Korean
    Born : 1562; Gyeonggi-do, South Korea
    First death : 1592, During invasion of Korea by
    Japanese army
    First teacher : Matsuhiro Kanagawa
    First recorded sighting : 1595, Okinawa Japan;
    Indentured servant of Matsuhir oKanagawa

    Surrounded from all sides by Oriental countries, Korea was often subjected to invasions like in 1592-98 when Japan attacked Korea with destruction of many buildings and the killing of many Koreans. Among them a pre-immortal merchant named Yung Dol-kim. Kim's body was found by Hattori Hanzo, ancient immortal and forger of swords who taught Kim of the Game and kept him as indentured servant, in exchange for letting him keep his head on his shoulders. Kim's hate for his master grew every passing day, until he managed to flee from him, poisoning him and robbing him of money, but without daring to take his head.
    The Korean society changed as traders and merchants began to trade with Japan and the West, and Kim knew he could never fit in any of those countries anymore. So he left for China and travelled to Outer Mongolia with several headhunters on his trail. He met Zhang-Shi, master of Kung-Fu and May-Ling Shen who both taught him more of the Game and to defend himself from his pursuers. A merchant by trade and heart, Kim evolved into a powerful fighting machine, so deeply involved in the Game that he lost track of the peaceful family man who saw his wife and children slaughtered by the Japanese.
    After witnessing the invasion of Tibet by China, the destruction of Hiroshima and Nagazaki, the Vietnam war, the rape of Nanking and so many other horrors, Kim felt it was time for him to retire after four centuries of fighting.
    The Korean immortal vanished in the middle of the 1960's and didn't re-appear until this year when he fell prey to the furious onslaught of the Kurgan; the Kurgan's Watcher reported that Kim no longer wanted to play the Game and was tired of fighting, wanting only to rest. The Kurgan granted him his wish, contemptuously taking his head and Quickening.

    Update, 03.03.2015

    It seems Sarah Lao’s write-up for the deceased Yung Dol-kim was greatly exaggerated. Yung Dol-kim never was a proficient player of the Game as Sarah seems to believe, unless this was a fantasy from her part.
    Yung Dol-kim’s life with Matsuhiro Kanagawa disgusted him from immortal life and he only sought training with May-Ling Shen and Zhang Shi to find self-defense techniques to ward off potential immortal opponents.
    His fight against Flameshadow was based on a misunderstanding, the Japanese kabuki mistook him for a serial killer of Japanese schoolgirls. And where on earth did Sarah find the idea that such an honorable warrior like Hattori Hanzo could take Kim as slave ? Matsuhiro Kanagawa was Kim’s tormentor, not Hanzo. Kim did keep twin falchions in his place of work, out of common sense, but I don’t think he used them in the past twenty years since he retired from the Game. Yung was a lot of things, but he never became a champion of the Game.
    Or only in the imagination of Sarah Lao.

    Long Chao

    Most recent base of operations : Southern China
    Occupation : Captain, Chinese Imperial Navy,
    guarding coasts from pirate attacks
    Prior occupations : Officer, Imperial army of China
    Roster of Immortals Status : Deceased

    First teacher : General Jin Ke

    Kim Yun-dol, barely ten years in his Immortality, was challenged by a Chinese Immortal of Guangdong and wn his first victory agaisnt an otherwise good man who was only doing his duty : protectign the shores of China from pirate ships burning villages and kidnapping women for slave markets of Southeastern Asia.
    Kim won a mighty, powerful Quickening, but this was a hollow victory as he found out from Long’s memories : an ancient Immortal who found two callings in his life, serving his country and playing the Game

    Kitbuga
    Most recent base of operations : Hohhot, Inner
    Mongolia
    Occupation : Warrior
    Prior occupations : Horseman, raider
    Roster of Immortals Status : Deceased
    Date : 1626
    Place : Hohhot
    Victor : Kim Yun-dol
    Original cultural affiliation : Mongol
    Born : 1102; Liao Dynasty of Mongolia
    First death : 1122; Fighting the Jurchen, ancestors
    of the Manchu
    First teacher : Uv Bukhar

    Kitbuga has been found to be a past disciple of Uv Bukhar, a player of the Game who infected his disciple with his taste for the power of the Quickening. Kitbuga challenged Kim when the Korean was travelling though Inner Mongolia, searching for the legendary May-Ling Shen whom he heard was a firebrand I nthe Game and welcomed disciples from the four corners of the Orient, so long as they came with amiable intentions anda true will to learn. Kim’s will to learn was a burnign in him as his will to survive in the Game and he receved both opportunities in Mongolia when he won his fight against Kitbuga and when he was mentored by May-Ling Shen, who taught him the way of the Chinese sword, the ways of Chinese martial arts and how to please a Chinese woman in bed.

    Halim Saad
    Most recent base of operations : Malacca
    Sultanate of Aceh
    Occupation : Pirate ship captain
    Prior occupations : Freight ship captain
    Roster of Immortals Status : Deceased
    Date : 1633 Attacking Dutch East Indies ships
    Place : Malacca
    Victor : Kim Yun-dol, navigator working for
    Chinese envoy to Sultan of Aceh
    Original cultural affiliation : Malaysian
    Born : 1156; Malay Archipelago, Srijivaja Empire
    First death : 1186; Conquest of Malay by Chola Empire
    First teacher : Shiva Gupta

    Halim Saad lived in Malaysia for five hundred years and had been scourging the southeast asian seas as a pirate ship captain, destroying ships, enslaving women, killing children or selling them to slave markets. He also hated foreign Immortals he felt were invading this country and specialized in attacking Dutch merchant ship at the time of the Dutch East Indies era of Malaysia. Kim worked for the Chinese envoy to the Sultan of Aceh and also helped merchant ships through safe waters as a navigator, having coined the term “multi-tasking” centuries before the word was invented. The fight between Kim and Halim took place in a seedy part of Malacca, after Halim sold three unfortunate girls to a local bordello. It is a shame Kim didn’t kill the Malay before the girs were sold in slavery.

    Kutemeikashite
    Most recent base of operations : Iga Province,
    Present Mie Prefecture, Japan
    Occupation : Ninja, specializing in guerilla warfare,
    espionnage and sabotage missions
    Prior occupations : Yamabushi, wxarrior-monk
    Roster of Immortals Status : Deceased
    Date : 1651
    Place : Iga Province
    Victor : Kim Yun-dol, at this time guest of the town
    elder, targeted for assasination
    Original cultural affiliation : Japanese
    Born : 1280; Island of Honshu, Japan
    First death : 1324; Yamabushi killed assisting
    Emperor Go-Daigo in his attempt to overthrow
    Kamakura Shogunate
    First teacher : Go Usami, Yamabushi

    In 1651 Kim Yun-dol migrated to Japan as part of a diplomatic mission, a bodyguard with a taste for foreign cultures inherited from May-Ling Shen’s lessions. Durign a stay in a village of the Iqba province where he was a guest of the local village leader he fought an invisible assassin clad in black,carrying an assortiment of weaponry, in other words a Ninja. Kutemeikashite was a legendary killer who had murdered his way across the Empire of Japan for three hundred years and had the reputation of being an unkillable, fearsome opponent. Many Immortals tried to come after him, trying to rid Japan from this nuisanc,e including legedary Hattori Hanzo and fabled Miyamoto Musashi. But it was Kim Yun-dol who got to him, using tracking skills received from Mongol Kitbuga‘s Quickening : Kutemeikashite targeted the village leader and murdered his mortal bodyguards as well as his favorite concubine,spreading terror in the place.

    Anousheh Khayami
    Most recent base of operations : Delhi, India
    Occupation : Soldier, Persian army, occasional
    player of the Game hunting Kitbuga the Mongol
    Prior occupations : Ditto
    Roster of Immortals Status : Deceased
    Date : 4 May 1739 Persian sack of Delhi
    Place : Delhi
    Victor : Kim Yun-dol, at this time living as a jewels
    merchant in Delhi
    Original cultural affiliation : Persian
    Born : 1238; Kingdom of Persia
    First death : 1258; Mass extermination of Persians
    by conquering Mongol army, killed by Mongol
    Warrior Kitbuga while defending her family
    First teacher : Lalica

    In 1739, Kim was living as a jewels merchant in Delhi, India, taking a few decades off from the violence of the Game.
    But the Game always catches up to even the more amiable of Immortals and in 1739 the Persians invaded India and sacked Delhi after the Battle of Karmal which marked the victory for Nader Shah of Ira, during his invasion of Mughal dynasty of India. As a captain of Shah's troops was Immortal woman (a woman !) Anousheh Khayami, a female player of the Game with a tragic past linked to a Mongol Immortal she had been hunting for nearly five centuries. Some Immortals really carry long grudges. Then she was challenged by Kim Yun-dol who protected his investments i nDlehi as well as the lives of the mortals he befriended and in spite of all the trainign she received from her teacher in 1258, lost her life agaisnt the Korean, not aware that this was the Immortal who killed her lifelong ennemy for her.

    Valeria Rozhkova
    Most recent base of operations : Khabarovsk,
    Far East District of Russia
    Occupation : Intelligence work, on behalf of
    Andrej Korda
    Prior occupations : Mistress/disciple of Andre
    Korda
    Roster of Immortals Status : Deceased
    Date : 13 May 1853
    Place : Khabarovsk
    Victor : Kim Yun-dol
    Born : 1554; Transbaka, Russia
    First death : 1580, Killed by Cossacks during
    conquest of Siberia by Russian Tsardom
    First teacher : Andrej Korda
    Known associates : Andre Korda

    In 1853, Kim Yun-dol was part of the Koreans migration waves of the mid-19th century to Far E ast Russia and Siberia during the decline of the Joseon Dynasty. A lot of Korean peasants felt Siberia would give them a chance to live better lives and so they started migrating en masse, among them a household owner named Kim Yun-dol. Though thinking of retiring from the Game, the Game never forgot Jim in the person of a socialite named Valeria Rhozkova who saw those migratory waves as an opportunity to use Koreans as spies in the Far East, on behalf of her teacher, master manipulator Andre Korda.
    Korda always moved in mysterious ways and he ordered Valeria to r"ecruit Kim once she identifed him an an Immortal. But Kim wasn't a newbie who could be coerced and he saw Korda and Valeria's game as a danger to his community's efforts of integrating Siberian communities. The conflict between the three Immortals boiled to a point when Korda ordered his lover to dispose of the now-considered liability and once again Kim fought for his life. In 1907 it was the end of the Russo-Japan war (Korda's manipulations were somewhere behind), Russia enacted an anti-Korean law at the behest of Japan, under which the land of Korean farmers was confiscated and Korean labourers were laid off. Since then, Kim was long gone but the news did cause him a measure of chagrin.

      Nice background, how about a chronicle write-up ? Yes, Slocum would sleep with a prostitute and that would be a blatant case of watcher interfering with his Immortal.



      Isabel Regalo
      Original cultural affilation : Brazilian
      Born : 1811; Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
      First death : 1830, Died from malaria
      First teacher : Theresa Malloy

      Guenau Bolano
      Original cultural affiliation : Spanish
      Born : 1963; Cordoba, Spain
      First death : 1989; Suicide
      First teacher : Isabel Regalo

      Guenau Bolano and Isabel Regalo have a unique slant on playign the Game : Guenau plays the lonely young Immortal who is prisonner of an abusive relationship, whose girlsfriend is following him like his own sahdow. When he finds a symapthetic ear amogn hte Immortals, he waits that the relationship is comfy enough so he can lure the Immortal (preferably a woman) in his home where Isabel is waiting. She plays the jealous fury and jumps on the hapless Immortal who has been weakened by a drugged glass of wine from Guenau, and then the two lovers share hte Quickening. They share everything since Bolano's suicide in 1989 over a broken heart.But was Bolano doesn't know is that Isabel has had many Immortal "partners" of both sexes in 187 years of existence, all agreeing to play her game and beign disposed of Immortal-style when Isabel tired of them. The maipulative vixen and the foolish fox truly make a deadly team, but for how long ?

        Very nice of you. All Immortals featured on that list are covered in my chronicles.

      I opened it up in a text document and combed through it hahaha. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the actual chronicles for the entries, just the basic info.

        Here is the chronicle of Francois Marchette, the Cynophobic swordsman

        NAME: Francois Marchette
        KNOWN ALIASES: Maurice Fontenot

        STATUS
        UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS: Cynophobic (Fear of dogs)
        MOST RECENT BASE OF OPERATIONS: Paris, France
        OCCUPATION: Independent means
        ROSTER OF IMMORTAL'S STATUS: DECEASED
        DATE: 1982
        PLACE: Paris, France
        VICTOR: Peter Kanis
        WATCHER: Claude Massanet

        BACKGROUND
        BORN: 1729; Gévaudan, France
        ORIGINAL CULTURAL AFFILIATION: French
        FIRST DEATH: 1764
        CIRCUMSTANCE: Killed by the Beast of Gévaudan
        FIRST TEACHER: Brannix of Gaul

        Francois could have taken out Kanis. He had the skills, the drive to win the Game, the experiance.
        What did couldn't prepare for, was the dogs. Most likely stemming from his first death, the sight of a dog
        terrified him. So when he had literally run through a Parisian park, being chased by Kanis's Rotweilers, he was in
        no state to fight and take that thief Kanis's head.


        And a personal update to Xaiver St.Cloud

        NAME: Khaled el Zitouna
        KNOWN ALIASES: Xaiver St. Cloud, Gerard Fleurie, Nelson Mfume

        STATUS
        UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS: Lost left hand in battle, Paris 1992
        MOST RECENT BASE OF OPERATIONS: Paris, France
        OCCUPATION: Jewel Thief
        ROSTER OF IMMORTAL'S STATUS: DECEASED
        DATE: 1982
        PLACE: Paris, France
        VICTOR: Duncan MacLeod
        WATCHER: Stanley Barton

        BACKGROUND
        BORN: ca. 1160; Morocco
        ORIGINAL CULTURAL AFFILIATION: Moor
        FIRST DEATH: 1192
        CIRCUMSTANCE: Fighting in the armies of Saladin, 3rd Crusade
        FIRST TEACHER: Henri St. Cloud of France

        Early in his Immortal life, probably around the same time he whacked his first teacher and took both
        the man's head and his name, Khaled el Zitouna realized that the road to success was paved with dirty tricks.
        In his early days, Khaled would choose his victims with care, studying them, never challenging one who might
        be better than he. MacLeod lost a good friend and teacher, Hamza el Kahir, to Khaled that way. Later Khaled
        experimented with poison gas and other dishonorable methods to incapacitate his victims before taking their heads.
        After Macleod took his hand in 1992, Khaled even resorted to mercenaries with Uzis, no class. Khaled may have a
        polished demeanor - well dressed, well-read, well-spoken, as well as a weakness for expensive caviar and rare art -
        but inside beat the heart of a coward. MacLeod did the world a huge favor when he took out this one.

          Good job on François Marchette, a cynophobic with links to a tragic story from France's past, killed by that nutjob Kanis! I like the name you give to Xavier too. Well done.

          That still doesn't seem good enough to me, though. Xavier runs around back then saying things about not killing children or sleeping with virgins. Centuries in the future he also almost gives a "real" answer to why he kills mortals, and it seemed to be there must be some interesting backstory there. Something a lot better than "He's just a total scumbag."

        Xavier's chronicle write-up is from the Watcher CD ROM. Only the name has been modified. Von Mollet, maybe you could write a short text explaining how Xavier went from being a player of the Game who doesn't kill children - and he was certainly taunting Duncan MacLeod when he said this - to a heartless killer who takes pleasure in killing.

          And now, Von Mollet, a surprise for you : here are some of the characters you created on the previous HLBB, only with minor modifications. I safeguarded them on my databases, crediting you as their author.

          Kenshiro Tatsuya

          Known aliases : "Bug" Tatsuya, Tetsuo Shima
          Notable characteristics : None
          Weapon : Japanese military saber
          Recorded kills : Genjo Ito

          Status
          Most recent base of operations : Tokyo, Japan
          Occupation : Motorcyclist, bosozoku gang leader
          Prior occupations : Motorcyclist
          Roster of Immortals Status : Active
          Date :
          Place :
          Victor :
          Watcher : Shingo Misawa

          Background
          Original cultural affiliation : Japanese
          Born : 1932, Kyoto Japan
          First death : 1952, Motorcycle accident
          First teacher : Keiko Watanabe
          Known associates : None
          Known past associates : Keiko Watanabe
          First recorded sighting : 1952, Kyoto. Student of Watanabe

          Bug Tatsuya embodies the spirit of bosozoku. The hair, the attitude, the motorcycle. A rebel at heart, he never should fit in. He even uses a military sabre of his homeland instead of the Japanese katana that the majority of Immortal countrymen and women use. He travels around Japan, causing trouble wherever he goes. Speeding through traffic, setting fires and getting in fights. He better watch out though. Word is yakuza boss, Matsuhiro Kanagawa, is out for his head after Bug torched a restaurant that was a front for a betting parlor he owned. Bug better watch out, or sharpen his sword skills. I'd put my bets on the former samurai anyday.

          Place : Irak

          Watcher : Private Mike Sanders

          Background

          Student of Everett Bellian

          I am afraid to report that we lost another dedicated Watcher, Private Mike Sanders, in Irak. His platoon was ambushed by a Taliban cell while doing a patrol. After a firefight, only him and his assignment, John Ray Feilding remained and were taken by Taliban forces to a undisclosed location. When asked who was higher in rank, Feilding said Sanders was, knowing that the terrorists would want a higher rank to hold for ransom. They beheaded Feilding, taping it, and sent a message to US Forces. By the time the US responded, the area was deserted and Sanders was found shot in the head excution style.

          Stephen Lawrence, Area Supervisor Bagdhad
          Second Gulf War

          Written by ThePiscitelli, 2009

          When John Ray Fielding first met Amanda in 1917, he was a corporal of the British army, stationed in France on the battlefield of WWI with orders for his untit to ceasefire for the day so as to avoid a situation with the Germans were they would all have been needlessly killed. Ray was carrying his order in a wallet with money in it, which Amanda coveted.
          Ray was ambushed and tried to explain to the thief that his orders were important, he couldn't give her his wallet. But she didn't listen, knocked him out and stole both letter and money. When Ray woke up, it was too late : his unit made of 120 men had been slaughtered in battle and himself met his First Death later in the trenches.
          His teacher, Everett Bellian taught him about immortality and disclosed to him the identity of the woman he met. Ray swore to find the thief who had caused the death of his comrades-in-arms.
          It was not only the death of his friends that broke his heart, but also seeing from afar his wife marrying another man and their adopted children growing up without him. Not knowing anything alse, Ray stayed a soldier, fighting in Spain, Korea and Vietnam under different identities, living by the sword and by the gun.
          In 1998, Ray found the woman who destroyed his life in Toronto, confronted her and challenged her to a fight; Amanda, a thief with a conscience, felt guilty and accepted the challenge.
          Who knows what would have happened if her pre-immortal friend Nick Wolfe hadn't interfered, making Fielding realise that Amanda's death wouldn't bring his friends back from the grave, and that revenge was a two-edged sword : it kills its carrier as well as its target.
          Fielding reluctantly agreed to let bygones be bygones, and left Amanda to her bad conscience, ready to start a new life fresh without revenge in his heart.

            Lassiter better watch out. Most Immortals would want to keep a low profile, but apparently Howard didn't get the memo. Everytime he goes out, he draws attention to himself, and not the good type. Accusations of drug use, alcohol abuse, and beating his girlfriend, his face is often plastered over tabloid newspapers. We've taken steps to make sure that when he loses his head it won't be discovered he's a 180 year old immortal who carries a sword for protection. When a small town nobody goes missing, nobody bats an eyelash. When a football star who is constantly in the spotlight goes missing, people ask questions.

            Mentored by Asteria of Gaul

            Gaius Suetonius Paulinus (aka Marcus Constantine) ordered the Roman army to destroy the Celtic Druid stronghold on Anglesey in Britain, sacking Druidic colleges and sacred groves. The massacre helped impose Roman religion on the world and sent Druidism into a decline from which it never recovered; Amergan was high priest of the Anglesey stronghold and survived only to bury his brethen and to see the Druid cult vasnih into obscurity until his temporary death three hundred years later by the blade of Marcus Constantine's centurion, marking his first and only recorded appearance. Constantine couldn't afford to murder an Immortal on Holy Grounds, and certainly nopte before his men's eyes.
            Later research allowed him to identify him as a past student of Druidess Asteria of Gaul at a time when she lived as a Druidess in Celtic Britain during the times of Britannia's invasion by the Romans.

            I had the feeling that women would be the end of Niccoli. He had snuck out tonight to meet two women that had come to the monastary earlier in the day. They had asked him to meet them that night to speak to him about something dire. He obliged them meeting them away from the monastary. But waiting for him instead, was The Kurgan. The Kurgan had known of Francesco's weakness for women, after nearly taking his head at a harem two years ago, and had bribed two women to lure him out. After he took Francesco's head he bedded and murdered the two women. I guess they a fullfiled their purpose.

              Taken in and taught of Immortality by Kage

              As the first Immortal Kage encountered after what he had seen back in '75, Andrew Breeland is a good representation of his new outlook on life. Breeland, a former junkie and small time hood, has been given a new lease on life. If Cambodia never happened, I'm sure Kage would have taught him how to make an easy buck and take heads or worse, take his head outright. But instead Kage is teaching him peace and love, something I figure Breeland has never lived with. While Kage is still teaching him how to use a sword, I figure this is just a protective measure for when Breeland eventually leaves his teacher.

              Mike Dunham, 1986

              Breeland found Ohane Munroe among the debris of a house on the suburbs of New Orleans, he tried to reach out to her but this is an untrusting immortal hiding in the frame of the teenaged Ohane and though Andrew Breeland isn’t a pedophile, she recoiled from him. As the remains of the house was taken away by the flood, so was Breeland on his boat. I nearly drowned too, watching them from afar. I hope this isn’t the last we see of Breeland and of that unfortunate girl.

              In 1944, Sergeant James Guidry died in a skrimish with Nazi troops in France. After awaking an Immortal, he was found by a former soldier, Antoine Legris, who taught him the ways of Immortality. Coming back to the States in 1972, finding the US he left had changed immensely. Finding work as a dishwasher in Shreveport at Easy Eddie's Grill a barely one star grill. Over time he rose from dishwasher to chef and from chef to maître d'hotel. When he eventually bought the place, he overhauled the restraraunt, making it a four star restraraunt when he was finished. Life was good, until that little punk Kant, took his head. The Grill has since closed, as if it died with him.

              Hyde the Hunter chased madame Moselle to the ouskirts of Paris. She tried to warn her mentor, Pierre Segur, of Hyde's plan. But was too late. She encountered the Scotsman Duncan MacLeod, who informed her that Hyde had found her teacher. She rushed to where MacLeod said the two had gone, ignoring him reminding her the rules of the Game. When she arrived, it was too late. Hyde had taken away the only thing she had to a father, and instead of protecting him, she had lead Hyde right to him.

              Finally Monique caught up to Mario Cardoza two hundred years after the assassin ruined her business in Marseilles during an incident involving the destruction of her inn and the death of her mortal husband and foster children. For two centuries Monique hunted Cardoza, swearing revenge. But her revenge she never got, Cardoza being a swordmaster and in an ungly mood at the time of Monique's challenge. A good woman is dead, may her ghost haunt and torment Cardoza for the next fews centuries.

                I lost Baltsar last night. During the 4th of July celebrations during the fireworks display, the street was croweded and I lost track of him. I talked to the whore he frequented and she told me that he had said something about going north. I'll look for him, but I have a feeling we might have lost him.

Matter of fact, she hunts only male Immortals, believing that if there can be only one, it should be a woman. With her amazonian build, close-cropped hair and wielding a two handed zweihander, she is a headhunter with a chip the size of a small country on her shoulder. I feel bad for any man that gets on her bad side.

                Terrence O'Connor was sometimes mistaken as Terrence of Coventry because of their similar names, but an adventurous aristocrat he wasn't : more an opportunist and rogue ready for anything if he could turn a profit. I am sure he would have done a lucrative business as a gangster in the years following the Prohibition, with the rise of the Italian-American maffia, but he ran into an elderly immortal who ran a distillery operation behind the cover of silvermithing and Terrence felt he could associate himslef with someoneof his kind, for once. Unfortunately, Terence Kincaid didn't see it that way and whipped his sword when the Aussie asked for a bigger part of the action.

                All Julie wanted was to be a mother. After many attempts to become preganant in her pre-immortal life failed, she resorted to theft. She stole an infant from a house one night only to be caught and killed the following morning. When Garibaldi found her and told her she could never have children, her world fell apart. So when a young Immortal boy came to her looking for a safe place to hide 192 years later, she welcomed him with open arms. Shame she was the one who needed protection.

                George always had a soft spot for charity cases. Even before he died his first death, he was always taking in the poor, giving them hot meals and shelter for the night. When a crazed beggar stabbed him in a back alley that night in 1780, he found that he couldn't die, nor could he stop helping the disprivledged. On his way out West, he found Micheal Moore, a newly born Immortal with a truckload of emotional trauma. He taught him the ways of the Game and sent him on his way, not knowing the evil Michael had in him. He relocated in Washington, opening a shelter, much as he had before. It wasn't long until he ran into a Immortal child named Kenny. He took him in, raising him as his own. Until one night Kenny took his head, taking a life of a man who had done nothing but help others.

                Finally I don't have to watch that spoiled brat anymore. Annika finally thought she would have revenge on Amanda for when Amanda stole her favorite necklace in 1923, but Amanda made sure to end her before she had a tantrum. Again. Actually can't remember a day without one. Heck, Kenneth acts like more of an adult than her. It's about time someone put her in her place.

                Some Immortals have a bad reaction to the presence of Immortal and this weakness can prove fatal : they get epilepsy and find themselves as defenceless as infants. The cause of most cases of epilepsy is unknown. Some cases occur as the result of brain injury, stroke, brain tumors, infections of the brain, and birth defects, in the cause of Immortals it is the power of the Quickening laying in their brains and spinal cord that can cause those reactions.

                Some reactions are benign, Kit O'Brady is famous for brutally sneezing in the presence of other Immortals, but in the case of Paul Furio (Immortality's own James Bond) and Malek Ben Mansour from Morocco, epilepsy has caused them more troubles than they care to count, and in the case of Furio it proved fatal : during his investigation of the Red Brigades in 1973 it provoked such a seizuere in him that the Brigages leader - Marcantonio Fitipaldi - easily took hold of him and killed him. Jamal Al Din of Syria was prime warrior material, a young Immortal from Damascus who found epilepsy prevented him from playing the Game and turned from warlike activities to more scholarly careers. Simon Vasilyev was one of the best blades from Russia, after Victor Markov, but a bad Quickening left this after-effect in him and he retired from a promising career among the Immortals of Mother Russia to concentrate on his other talent : singing among the Red Army Choir with the Alexandrov Ensemble.

                Those Immortal have tried to find medications with brain surgeon Peter Gaicus and herbalist Grace Chandel, unfortunately it is incurable for an Immortal : it is the Immortal range which is at fault and there is no true control over the Immortal range, lest you be an ancient and powerful Immortal able to cloack yourself from other Immortals.

                    IMMORTALS WAR

                    The Chronicle of Menmet-Ra is an enigma, sometimes its difficult to disentangle myth from reality. Now known to us as the mysterious leader of the Zodiac Brotherhood, a group of twelve Immortals, all students of Menmet-Ra.He has been identified as another student of the oldest Egyptian Immortal Inyotef, pre-dating Raan by several centuries. According to research, in pre-immortality he was a humble farmer, but how he died his First Death is unknown. He shows up later in the records as an officer in the Egyptian army under the Pharoah Tuthmosis I during his campaigns in Syria and Palestine between 1507 BC and 1494 BC. Before that, one earlier account places him at the court of Amenemhet I in 2000 BC as a bodyguard or captain of the place guard.
                    His place as founder and leader of the Zodiac Brotherhood is said to have originated from his belief that Immortals are born superior to mortals and should not have to hide among them and fight each other to extinction. He came to embrace the idea that Immortals should be ruling their inferior cousins. It is these beliefs that are said to have led to his conflict with his teacher Inyotef. A conflict that culminated in a confrontation in 1420 BC in Abydos in Lower Egypt. According to legend, they fought from sundown to sunrise, but eventually Inyotef triumphed. He spared his student's life at the point of his sword, unable to kill his former friend, but this defeat did not extinguish Menmet-Ra's beliefs.Inyotef must have known his student would one day have to be stopped and it is believed he passed this warning on to the legendary Magos of Ur, who in turn passed on the knowledge to his student Aganesthes of Tyrins.
                    According to legend, Memnet-Ra walked the known world, searching for others of his kind, gathering to his side twelve disciples fiercely loyal to him. It is written that Memnet-Ra came to believe that because Immortals were so few in number compared to mortals, they would have to rule from the shadows. He set up a base at Knossos on the island of Crete in 205 BC and his Zodiac Brotherhood hired mercenaries as a garrison to defend the fortress they built.
                    Why Memnet-Ra adopted the Zodiac as a symbol of his cult is shrouded in mystery, as are the Immortals who became his acolytes, since Memnet-Ra was elusive and difficult to keep track of, especially with the limited resources of those days. Almost nothing is known about his Brotherhood other than they were Immortals found by Memnet-Ra and indoctrinated into his beliefs. Memnet-Ra and the Zodiac Brotherhood were a secret society that prided itself on its anonymity, and legend has it that their plan was to infiltrate the mighty empires of the ancient world and rise to power from the shadows with Memnet-Ra as supreme ruler.
                    Records show that Achilles of Troy, legendary student of Aganesthes of Tyrins, discovered the plot by the Zodiac. He recruited to his side students, friends and trusted allies to stop Memnet-Ra: Xanthia of Melitus, Cleophon of Athens, Epistor of Macedon, Medios of Thebes, Deoneces and Kyra of Sparta, Marcus Constantine, Take Ne of Egypt, and Katherine of Samothrace. The Immortals planned to storm the Zodiac's fortress on Crete, but were heavily outnumbered by the cult's 2000 mercenaries. According to records, Marcus Constantine used his influence in the Roman Senate to convince the Republic that the army on Crete posed a threat to Rome's Mediterranean trade routes and he was given command of a legion.
                    With this force, the Immortals landed on Crete and laid siege to the Zodiac's fortress. After three days, they breached the walls and swept into the fortress. The legend says the Romans put the mercenaries to the sword, slaughtering them without mercy to a man, while the Immortals hunted down the Brotherhood and slew them all...All but two members of the Zodiac who escaped with their master. Memnet-Ra was nowhere to be found.
                    Several of the Immortals, including Cleophon and Achilles, searched for the cult leader for several years afterwards, but never found him. He had vanished off the face of the Earth.
                    It has been over 2000 years and no trace of Memnet-Ra has ever been found, but rumours persist of a mysterious ancient Immortal moving silently in the shadows, quietly gathering acolytes to an ancient cause.
                    Is the Zodiac Brotherhood on the move again ? Time will tell...

                    The Legend of Memnet-Ra and the Zodiac Brotherhood

                    13.02.2011
                    Ardath Bey, a diminutive woodcarver from Memphis who made his first appearance on the Immortal scene during an encounter with businessman Habib ben Younes : a short encounter that led to a discussion in one of the provate rooms of Ardath's cafe of Casablanca. Habib's Watcher never figured what the two men said to each other before Habib left the place.
                    Between 1860 and 1900, Ardath travelled on two occasions, first in Iran, where it is suspected he visited Hassan-ii-Sabba, the old man on the mountain living a secluded life in his fortress of Alamut : then to Ankara, Turkey, where an encounter with Siah-Seck ended with the pirate woman's blade at his throat. He told her something that made her scared to the point of getting her truly angered. Ardath and Siah-Seck's Watchers were unable to record the verbal exchange between the two Immortals. Had an encounter with two other Immortals in the 20th century : Musa Chekhamani in Tripooli during the mid-1970's and Connie Richland in 1991, during her exploration of the Valley of Kings in Egypt. Ardath warned Cordelia that the Pharaoh's curse would strike her down if she dared violate the holy grounds of Egypt, but Cordelia shrugged it off... and lost her head against Keith Boyer just asshe uncovered the burial chambers of Seti I's wives.
                    The inquisitive Watcher Research feels there may be connections between Ardath Bey and the aforementioned Immortals : Richland's death by the blade of Boyer was too coincidental : could he have contacted the young pounk so he'd go after Richland ?
                    And isn't it a bit curious that an Immortal woodcarver could have had 'pacifical' encounters with political big guns such as Hassan-ii-Sabbah, Habib ben Younes and Musa Chekhamani ?

                    To be added to the chronicles of Inyotef and Tizkar of Sumer
                    In light of current events, we are forwarding to you an extract from an old myth we had previously dismissed as local legend or folklore. It recounts a conversation between the ancient Egyptian Immortal Inyotef and the Sumerian headhunter Tizkar just prior to his death in 523 BC :
                    ...but as the old Egyptian warrior, defeated, fell to his knees, his eyes flashed in defiance. Lifting his head, he said to his conqueror, "Before you kill me, Sumerian, know this : I know who sent you, i know who it is you serve ! I have a message for you to deliver to your master. Tell him i have seen the Old Woman, the Oracle. She knows what it is he seeks. Tell him she has seen the future, she has seen his end. It will not happen now, but far, far from now. At the time of the Gathering, when he sends his followers out into the world, bringing chaos and death to all, two of our kind will stand against him : One, a Son of Athena, the other, a Daughter of Ares. Together, they are the Sword and the Chalice, the Harbingers of his doom. They are the Future. My old student seeks godhood, they will see to it he is forgotten, his name reviled. All those who bear the mark of Ra will be mercilessly slain to their utter desolation. This is the message i bring, Sumerian. One day soon, your own head will fall and we will meet in the afterlife..."
                    And Inyotef was still laughing as Tizkar's sword fell.
                    It would seen this War was foretold over 2500 years ago by an Immortal known to Inyotef and Menmet-Ra as the Old Woman or the Oracle. Further research is required to discover her origins.
                    We leave it to you to assess the identities of the two Immortals referred to as the Son of Athena and the Daughter of Ares.

                    From the Records of the Tribunal
                    Dark Henry of Kent Chronicle
                    After Walter Graham's Watcher was found killed near the Immortal's house, with Graham's body missing, the worst was feared : the return of a rogue Watcher death-squad, targeting innocent Immortals. An inquiry was made but with no conclusive proof that Lynn Horton may or may not have followed in her father's footsteps, the infamous James Horton. Actually, Lynn is a good woman who feels concerned by the number of 'evil' Immortals having a negative influence on the course of mankind's history and felt appaled when she found out about her father's operations.
                    As it turned out later, during the investigations of the murders of Betsy Mitchell in Los Angeles, the guilty part was none other than Henry of Kent, grandmaster of headhunter-slaying who had seemingly gone mad after killing Lucius Oranius Capito last december. Henry's Watcher reported how his assignment demonstrated psychotic behavior and used to drive entire nights around Los Angeles, looking for something. The ancient crusader was looking for Quickenings, either under the spell of a Dark Quickening (see James Coltec, Duncan MacLeod, Guy LeStrange) or addicted like his former student, Gerszon Telek.
                    In the span of ten days, four Immortals fell to his blade, two were experienced fighters, the two others younger Immortals under the wing of Betsy Mitchell. After those four murders and attracting the unwanted attentions of L.A's police department as well as FBI's finest, Henry left LA for Northern Calfornia where he hoped to find his former student, Lang Quing and her assocites, Ginjer Wu and the Shaolin Three.
                    The utter lack of discretion and avidity for Immortal's lifeforces seems to prove an addiction to Quickenings, that's even worse that what Gerszon Telek endured, which would be unavaoidable when you think of the total of headhunters Henry killed in the course of his travels : around forty evil Immortals perished by his blade. This new 'Dark Quickening' incident was foreseen by Henry's past Watchers, but never taken into consideration. After leaving L.A, Henry drove to Burbank where his former student, Amy Ross, worked as a teacher. Fortunately for her, she was still in England with Rhiannon Teague, having been invited by her Welsh friend for the holidays.
                    When she came back, the Immortal community of California was in a state of shock after four of their numbers had been found beheaded. Amy warned Rhiannon that her former teacher had gone md, and thus, though the grapevine, the SIS Immortals could tell of it to the Ravenwood agents who felt appaled that their beloved line-brother became one of the monsters he fought for eight hundred years.
                    Lan Quing, aka 'Little Dragon', the fifth best blade of East Asia right after Jin Ke, May-Ling Shen Zhang Shi and Hideo Tanaka, was next in line. She was happy to see her master again, but could see something was wrong about her old friend : a brusque, cold demeanor, flashes of anger and then rumors of Immortals brutally murdered in Los Angeles. Lang Quing had heard about DQ's but to her they were an urban legend. Then Henry assualted her without even a proper challenge and the little dragon was forced to fight, showing the same ferocity she had when challenged by older, more powerful Immortals. It is no wonder some Immortals referred to her as 'the mongoose of the far east'.
                    Little Dragon was very competent with a sword, but she soon found herself disarmed, her master's blade at her throat. If not for the intevention of her friends, the Shaolin Three, she would have lost her head. Henry of Kent fought the four women like a demon and then managed to escape, running away, seemingly in agony between his addiction and the despair of hurting his friend.
                    Lang Quing and the Shaolin girls tried to hunt Henry, not knowing what to do with him, but the Englishman vanished like a puff of smoke, moving far north, to the Pacific Northwest. He was briefly seen in Sacramento, scouring the city, but found no Immortal living in the area.

                    28 January 2011
                    Words in Watcher Circles of Japan is that Kiem Sun has found the recipe for the Kwanlo root, with which is is building an army of invicible mortals, as help in the Game. For the past five weeks, reports have been flowing in that Immortals from all corners of Japan have been assaulted by packs of men dressed in fancy garbs, demonstrating super-human strenght. They are now on the missing roster of Immortals. All are high-profile Immortals, with the exeption of Genjo Ito, student of Hideo Tanaka. We expect the Samurai master to come knocking at Kiem Sun's door whnever the hunt for Henry of Kent ends.
                    Kiem Sun has also been reported travelling a lot since the kidnapping and was present in each city where an Immortal diseappeared. It is to fear the seven aforementioned Immortals were murdered by Kiem Sun, a childlike Immortal hidig his cowardice, first behind walls, and now behind an army of supermen.

                    To : Watcher Tribunal
                    Report on the activities of Hideo Tanaka
                    20 February 2011
                    As expected, the samurai master investigated the deaths of the Immortals, and mourned the passing of his friend Eto Jiro and of his hoodlum student, Genjo Ito, swearing their death wouldn't stay unavenged. Hideo made contact with Koji and Kokuten Tadokoro, leaders of the Tadokoro Ninja clan who welcomed him as a friend and valuable ally and agreed to follow him on his search-and-destroy mission against Kiem Sun and his army of killers who had been positively identified as the murders of Jiro and other six other Immortals.
                    After a video-conference with Richeard of Mercia and Cleophon of Athens, Tanaka and the Tadokoro brothers decided an alliance with the Yasujiro Clan was necessary if they were to survive the coming war. Fujita Isei of Japan intelligence agency and associate of Tanaka was also enlisted as well as kabuki hero 'Flameshadow' : but first they needed to convince stubbord Nariko Genji that, on her own, she had little chance to survive against Kiem Sun and his army : the mortals hired by Kiem Sun could be anyone, could hide anywhere and strike at the least expected time. They were worse than the Ninja in the sense that they could be anyone anywhere.
                    But Nariko Genji would hear none of an alliance with the nine heroes and swore the death of not only Hideo Tanaka, but also of all the Tadokoro Clan and of the Ravenwood Immortals, boasting that she made alliances that would ensure her final victory over her hated ennemies.
                    Naturally, this tantalizing revelations allows speculations on who her master may be : is he the powerful adversary rumored to have triggered this senseless war ? Is Nariko delusionnal enough to believe that she stands a chance against Ravenwood International and their allies ? Time will tell, soon enough I am afraid.





                    From the records of the Tribunal
                    22 February 2011
                    To be added to the Chronicles of Hideo Tanaka and Kiem Sun

                    The attack of Hideo Tanaka and of the Tadokoro Clan was swift and merciless. Using stealth and speed, they invaded Kiem Sun's villa on the outskirts of Kobe and killed the the bodyguards, the dogs, the servant, all mortals imbued with superhuman strenght, all of Chinese origins. It took a mere hour for the Ninja to fight the crazed mortals whose strenght was merely boosts of adredaline triggered by a powerful drug, a deadly mix of cocaine and artificial adredaline, as well as an unknown molecule : all this discovered after an autopsy was performed by Tokyio's Watcher scientifical team on some of the people killed by Tanaka and his friends. Twenty-four mortals armed with swords and assorted weapons creamed in the space of sixty minutes by the combined might of Tanaka and his associates : they expected some losses on their side but fortunately suffered none.
                    Hideo Tanaka and the Tadokoro's Watchers witnessed how Kiem Sun was dragged out of his house, bound and gagged and then taken to an isolated house for interrogation. The ear-piercing shrieks suggest violence and torture on poor Kiem Sun, Tanaka didn't look pleased when the interrogation was done, I do not believe Kiem Sun's answers satisfied him. I guess Tanaka hoped for clues on the identity of the man who gave Kiem Sun the recipe for the Kanloo root.
                    Tanaka later disposed of the Immortal as he saw fit, allowing us to finally put Kiem Sun on the list of deceased Immortals for Japan.

                    Barely one week after Hideo Tanaka took out Kiem Sun of the Game, the Bushido warrior and his associates - Flameshadow in Yokohama and Fujita Isai in Tokyo - were attacked in their homes by, respectively, Nariko Genji, Ojiwara Mito and Sanjoi Ogai. The three immortals didn't bother with respecting the rules of the Game : this was an assassination contract - on who's payroll is another mystery - and they had not time for the luxury of rules. Each of the three Ninjas was escorted by a dozen of genin - including those operating overseas.
                    Thanks to the wonders of cell-phones, help was soon on the way : the six immortals combining the Kawasai Clan helped the three immortals fight off the mortal genin - wiping out most of the Yasujiro Clan in the process : Ijiro and Shun Kawasai in Tokyo with Okada Iso and Tanaka Sinbei; Kawakami Gnsai and Kirino Toshiaki in Yokohama.
                    Tanaka, Flameshadow and Isai were left with their immortal opponents who they defeated and killed after strenuous fights. A well-needed victory for Ravenwood after the deaths of Vasquez and Haynes yesterday.

                    Deoneces, Frances Drummond and Clemont Haynes reunited with Hideo Tanaka after the attack against Kiem Sun's army. Henry of Kent was seen in Tokyo, cruising for an easy Quickening, which he won't find with Japan's Immortal population so severely depleted after Kiem Sun's attacks.
                    Tomorrow, the tag-team will resume its search, but time is of the essence : the Adversary is gathering its forces, more and more Immortals are killed and the Ravenwood Immortals need Henry of Kent safe and sound of mind.The Englishman is hiding somewhere on Hokkaido, safe in a Buddhist shrine, torn between his hunger for more Quickenings and his torments over the lives he has taken so far.There are talks among Field Watchers to interfere and disclose Henry's location to Deoneces, but we believe Deonecs and Hideo Tanaka, master hunters that they are, shall find Henry soon before he is forever lost to the world as a champion of the Game.
                    Meanwhile, all of Ravenwood Immortal agents have gathered to London per instructions from Cleophon of Athens. The Adversary is building his army, but so is the old Athenian.


                    From the Records of the Tribunal
                    30 March 2011
                    Word came in from East Asian Bureau, Japan Subdivision, that Deoneces of Sparta, Frances Drummond, Hideo Tanaka and Clemont Haynes finally found their rogue colleague and friend, Henry of Kent, after four weeks of hunting and the murders of four Immortals from Calfornia and Pacific Norhtwest.
                    The following is a report written by the Watchers of the four aforementioned Immortals to be entered in the Chronicle of Henry of Kent. Henry of Kent was found in a Buddhist shrine located north of Honshù, an island nearly depleted of most of its Immortal population.
                    In contemplative prayers for the last few days, Henry welcomed his friends with a part of relief - the hunt was over - but they could see he wasn't his usual self : serene, calm. This was a pained, tormented soul, thinner from not having had a decent meal for weeks, shaking like a junkie under withdrawal, ill-shaven and with longer hair.
                    Frankie Drummond was the one who suffered most from her friend's condition : he was the one who got her out of her 'dark years' during mid-19ht century, and she so wanted to help her friend. Brooding Deoneces understood all too well the darkness embracing Henry and Clemont, always the scholar, took the opportunity of studying the after-effects of a Dark Quickening on an Immortal.
                    The four Immortals went to a sacred grove of Honshù, an ancient, hidden cave the Tadokoro brothers knew about from their days of training with the White Witch of Honshù (see her chronicle for reference purpose). The cave has been existing for 2500 years at the very least, and was a haven for Immortals of Japan seeking respite from the Game and for those needing to be cured from temporary madness brought by the Game. It is written in the Chronicles that the great Ramirez himself took his student Matsuhiro Kanagawa there and trained him in the use of the Katana before the Game turned a brave warrior into the rogue and murderer he became.

                    There, Henry of Kent was left alone, having to fight his worst ennemy : himself. Because at this moment of his life, Henry of Kent realised he had become what he hated most : a headhunter, a murderer of his own kind, well before he targeted the Californian Immortals. Even if he came after rogue Immortals and players of the Game, it didn't change what he was, that is a born-warrior who killed with gusto and enjoyed travelling and fighting other Immortals in duels to the death. Even though he saw himself as a warrior doing what needed to bedone, the dark part of himself enjoyed killing.And when Henry kiled Lucius Oranius Capito, a headhunter who lived in the gray area of Immortality, the power of Capito's Quickening engulfed Henry's psyche and not even a favor of God could have saved him from the darkness that engulfed him. In the cave, twenty feet underground, Henry fought the most important battle of his life and faced his demons : the endless tortures he suffered during his First Death at Jerusalem, the shock of awakening on Earth, not in Heaven and feeling so alone and Godforsaken. The confusion that came when Cleophon of Athens taught him of the Game, of other Immortals. How he single-mindedly decided to come after those of his kind when Damon Case nearly killed him.
                    Then the memories... the filth accumulated over ten centuries of taking the life-essences of the most evil, depraved men and women who ever walked the Earth.. centuries, millenias of serial killing, rapes, torching villages, sacking cities, enslaving men and women, torturing people : memories acquired from the Quickeninings of Immortals Henry killed. All of this, Henry of Kent faced. He also faced the women he loved and lost, the friends he made and saw wither and die, his line-brother Maharbal of Carthage who was killed by the Kurgan : he faced the temporary deaths he suffered - buried alive in a landslide, being burnt on a stake, drowning while crossing the Atlantic sea, being captured and put to death by the Spanish Inquisition : countless horrors he endured in his long, adventurous life as an Immortal. All of this, Henry of Kent faced.
                    The darkness was his, and his alone. Finally, the Englishman stopped fighting. He welcomed the darkness in him, embraced it. He let it be a part of the good man he was, let the old wounds bleed then sew them up and finally healed. When the ancient crusader got out of his cave, he was healed. But he would never be the same again : he explained to his friends that he was done with the Game, with hunting other Immortals. It was over. In spite of their protests and the fact a war was raging in the Immortals world, Henry felt their side had enough rave warriors and heroes and that the Adversary had no chance against their combined might.

                    We are signalling the arrival in London of Middle Eastern Immortals Evliya Celebi, Ahmet Dede and Nasreddin Hoca. They met at Picadilly Circus and were joined by Richeard of Mercia and Eadwulf of the SIS : all five went at a local pub and had a serious discussion about an espionnage assignment from none other than Kellistra for whom they already did some work as agents in her search for Methos during hte 15th century on the North African coast, which open a window to another past identity of K : Isra of Algiers, mysterious and elusive woman briefly associated to the aforementioned three, and also the the murderous Hassan-ii-Sabbah.
                    Apparently, Kellistra wants the three of them to put their lives on the line as spies in Ari al-Muzaiyin group of hunters. They are to travel all the way to Alexandria and hook-up with the smal group, pretending to be on the side of the Adversary.

                    Celebi, Dede and Hoca are not only a friendly and well-liked lot in both the Immortal and Watchers communities, but those are historical people, important to our records : Celebi the legendary explorer and writer, Hoca the trickster and Ahmet Dede of the Islam Saint-Fools who 'never forgets a face'and survived encounters with more than one headhunter.Kellistra certainly has good reasons to send them after Ari al-Muzaiyin and his men - Generals need good spies in every war - but we do hope those three guys will live to see the end of the war and the defeat of the mysterious 'Adversary'.

She instructed them to pack bags and swords and to take the next plane with her to London where she hopes she can forge an alliance with Ravenwood International in spite of the bad blood she had with Immortal like Kellistra. Mossane belives she has two things for her : informations on the whereabouts of the Serpent Squad and her past as a disciple of Sunda Kastagir and vigilante on the African continent. Good luck to her ! Here is a woman in over her head : she is an ennemy of Ravenwood and she just betrayed the Adversary.

Could the old Egyptian be the elusive Adversary the Immortals are facing now ? If this be the case, who could be the new Zodiac Brotherhood ?
                    And if Memnet-Ra really was behind those manipulations why shouldn't he have done so before ? After cross-checking with the Watcher Research departments of Western Europe, It wouldn't be too much to infer that some of its members can be identified as Helen King as well as - possibly - the Immortal Maiden. Those Immortals have shown connections not only to HISS and to Ari al-Muzaiyin but are certainly behind the current Immortals War and have proven to have powerful connections in the mortal world, able to trigger chaos at any given time.

                    Do you even realise what you are writing ? It would give an entire new meaning to the Game : all those Immortals who died in the last 2000 years were then killed by a power-hungry Immortal with the dellusion of ruling the Immortal world.It would mean that all those powerful, ancient Immortals weren't killed for the sake of the Game, but because they could figure out who Memnet-Ra is. If Memnet-Ra is REALLY the villain Cleophon and Kellistra are fighting, then he may be hiding under our noses somewhere in the Database, either a minor Immortal of unknown origins or one who has never been identified so far.

The attack was expected, not only from us but also from Tanaka and Flameshodow, forwarned by Ravenwood thanks to Mossane Gasira Nkobe's informations. The two students of Matsuhiro Kanagawa proved to be fearsome fighters, mixing martial arts figures with their fighting techniques, like dances of death; although bereft of one arm thanks to Kellistra's blade, Lucy Sparks showed no weaknesses and kept her balance against Flameshdow while her friend Kin fought for her life in front of the honorable Samurai. In the end, both women fell on their knees, didn't ask for mercy and received none.

                    Taking a pro-active stance in the war, Frances Drummond and her former student Viola Blanco hunted Timoteo of Lusitania and Joanna Vaz all across Iberia. They found the two headhunters in Salamanca: Frances felt confident she could take on Timoteo or Vaz but she wasn't too sure about Viola. However, Viola had been insistent on taking part in the war, not wanting to share the sad fate of the other Iberian Immortals who chose to stay in hiding.
                    A long time ago, she swore she would never hide again, and by God she would get a piece of the action ! Beside, she had other weapons than just mastery of the sword : a crafty psychologist, she knew she could see though her opponent's fighting techniques, a talent that helped her face other Immortals time and time again.
                    Ten years after a war of terror was brought on American grounds, two butterflies brought terror to two agents of Memnet-Ra, coming after them in the middle of the night, yelling like furies and barely leaving theri quarries the time to get out of bed and pick their swords.
                    The fight was brutal. Frances brought her usual speed and agility while Viola paced more, carefully studying Vaz's swords move : when they were ready, both women took the offensive and utterly destroyed the Immortal couple's confidence before finally taking them out. Frances and Viola's Watchers witnessed a rare occurence in the Game : a double Quickening shared by two Immortals : it happened only with the Hauser Brothers, once with Frances and Henry of Kent, another time with Deoneces and Kyra of Sparta during the Horsemen Crisis and now.

They were no match against the combined might of six powerful Immortals who gunned them down before finally catching up to Fitipaldi.

                    Sigrid Solvig urged Fitipaldi to surrender, lest his life was forfeit, but the old fanatic had served the likes of Mussolini before bowing before Memnet-Ra and knew no other way of living than under the boot of one overlord or another. Surrendering wasn't an option.Fitipaldi fought Solvig like a madman until she was forced to lop off his head with a quick maneuver learnt from Thor Steen.Searching through the dead man's house, the squad found no evidence of his belonging to the Zodiac Brotherhood : however, they found on his computer a heavy correspondance with Immortals Mario Cardoza, Helen King and Pharamond, suggestign the Fitipaldi was at least a close associate of the Zodiac.

While Jin Ke used to be one of the best blades of China an retained al his vigor, Immortal Maiden was a devious and tricky fighter who managed to take advantage of Jin Ke's weaknesses, eventually getting the upper hand. Jin Ke fell to his knees, muttering 'Ravenwood will come for you, your little war is over' before his head fell to the ground. The ensuing Quickening was a mighty one, triggering a sudden, raging storm over Taiwan and causing for several millions of Taiwanese dollars of property damage. The Maiden's victory gave her cohorts the moral strenght they needed against May-Ling Shenand her team. But the China Enforcers didn't stand a chance against the coimbined might of China and Japan Immortals who set their differences aside and, in mere minutes, saw their respective heads divorced from their shoulders.

Lying low in the Game, so far, he never met any challenge and was thought to keep a neutral position by Ravenwood.
                    We were wrong : the Immortal with Midas' touch coordinated all the attacks against Immortals living on US territory, in relation with Pharamond, the Maiden and using sleeper agents across the entire country. His place on the Zodiac roster is of the Scorpio, it certainly fitts him : a man obsessed with wealth and power, and thus corruptible, we knew who he was all along and he played us all for frogs ! Naturally, reading his earler chronicles, he looks like a sympathetic hero who discarded his sword and choose the ways of peace : a former associate of Kellistra and Grayson who always walked between light and shadow and who should have been kept under better scrutinity.
                    Seraphina confronted him as the Scorpio of the Zodiac, but she didn't have the time to negociate an understanding as Demidas viciously went on the attack, relentlessly keeping the offensive, keeping the most vicious moves against the former gladiatrix.

The man he met has been his student 2,000 years ago, they drank wine in Babylon together. Like most of his discples, Pharamond took after Methos : an elusive man who passed himself as a legendary Immortal, one rumored to have existed ages ago and who likely died against a better sword. Until he reunited with his teacher as well as other Immortal at the top of the World Trade Center in 2000, he hadn't had a Watcher since Cherlemagne sent his armies across the Danube : he was an unknown quantity, a minor Immortal who associated himself with shady Immortals such as Annie Devlin, Andre Korda and Grayson.
                    The two Immortals met in a church and spoke in an ancient, undecipherable dialect : it sounded like Sanskrit, only altered. Methos seemingly warned Pharamond that Cleophon of Ahtens and Kellistra were coming for him and that the days of his master's reign were numbered. Pharamond retorted he would prevail as he always did, and that if Ra fell, another one would take his place and the Game would beging anew. Methos spoke eloquently of how his allies were detrmined to end the Game forever but also agreed that forever was too long a time not to be an utopia. 'We are mankind's dark mirror, Pharamond : Gengis Khan fell, another one took his place, Hitler fell his dreams survive even as we speak'.

                    After a long, harrowing fight, the Maiden managed to take the advantage against Hideo Tanaka and right as her sword was at his throat, Tanaka seized the Maiden's blade between his palms and kept such a pressure that it gave time for hsi sliced stomach to heal and to reverse his position in front of the Maiden. Hideo Tanaka is a master of the sword, his moves are the stuff of legends, but what makes him a true master of the immortal world - at least in the Far East - is his ability to take the advantage in the most extreme circumstances. Against Hideo's mastery of the Martial Arts, the Immortal Maiden found herself disarmed and soon she had to use her karate, jiu-jitsu and tae-kwan-do techniques against the Japanese immortal. The duel between the two masters lasted for hours - enough to make Bruce Lee green with envy. Then Tanaka got the upper hand and sent the Maiden to the floor, kiling her by hitting pressure points on her chest. The Maiden's heart explodedin her chest and then she was dead. Tanaka waited for the exhausted Maiden to revive, and handed her Cixong sword to her. The Maiden knew defeat when she saw one, and mutely took the position.
                    In a matter of seconds, her life was forfeit and her head rolling on the ground. And so ends the Chronicle of the second-to-last survivor of the Eight Immortals of Chinese Mythology.

                    To be added to the Chronicles of Safiyah Khan and Ya Nefer Ma’at
                    In Mumbai, Ya Nefer Ma'at was fighting Safiyah Khan. The battle between the two women was epic, the Berber from Morocco against the Egyptian from Alexandria, the lover of Immortal life against the God-driven fanatic. The battle proved to be unconclusive as both Immortals were of equal strenght, in the end the two fighters were both so exhausted that they called for a truce and decided to choose the following evening to finish their battle. Both women are liked in the Watcher community - Safiyah may be a remorseless killer, but she has class, a vision, she is practical and fair. This week we found out where she stads in the ongoing war.
                    The following evening, exactly twelve hours later, Khan and Ya Nefer Ma'at met again. Ya had been documented about Safiya Khan and knew that this was no ordinary killer she was facing : a player of the Game who believed Allah gave her a purpose in life and who had submitted her will to the power of an ancient and powerful Immortal from Egypt. Being Egyptian herself, Ya understood the fascination the ancient Egyptian gods could have on mortals and Immortals : Horus the hawk-god, Anubis keeper of the dead, Osiris whose chief-priest Raan had been her teacher. Ya tried to explain to Safiyah that whatever Memnet-Ra promised to her, he could never deliver : the ancient gods were long dead and forgotten, they could have no hold on anyone anymore. Allah's message to the Prophet Mohammet was a message of peace, neither of war, nor of hatred. What hold could he posibly have on her, she questioned. Safiyah honestly answered : she ddn't care about the so-called Adversary, and felt she was above wars ruled by Immortals with dellusions of grandeur. She fought in the name of Allah, and only to Allh would she give her life for he gave a purpose to the empty life she was living. She was going to take the head of Ya in His name, not for the sake of the war. Again the two women fought. This time, Ya Nefer Ma'at knew she had a death sentence on her head : if she lost the fight, Safiyah would show no mercy for she was too far gone. Safiyah's ferocity and speed knew no bounds : she had opened her heart in a moment of weakness, and she could afford no weakness. With anger, precision and skill she landed the Egyptian woman on her knees and before Ya could say one word... Safiyah left In a puff of smoke in an uncharacteristic move. A troubled woman in troubled times.

She walks with a limp, with help from a stick, looking withered and tired, an ageing mortal woman. Since King is know to have reached her Immortalhood in her mid-twenties, it doesn’t seem possible. But King does look like a woman in her mid-forties now. What could Kellistra have done to her in 2005 so she ends like an ageing, weak shadow of her former self ? After landing in Alexandria, the two Immortals lost their Watchers and are presumed active in the area. More reports to follow.

While he proved competent against Cassius Polonius in 2008, the ancient manipulator was no fighter : the German headhunter apparently is and that's why he prevailed against a man who dedicated his life to curing mankind from its ills.Research is in motion to pin a name on the mysterious individual who took out a valiant soldier of Ravenwood.

                    May-Ling didn't fall on her knees : the competitive acrobat started running, but to no avail, the German was faster and took her head swiftly.He has been cross-identified as the same Immortal who took out the powerful Maude de Valerie in Moscow last week.

                    From : Elodie Desarte, Watcher Research, Immortal Fighting Techniques
                    Scholars have debated since Huneric’s disappearance in 1972 how a man of limited intelligence could become such a dangerous and powerful Immortal. Much has been made of his uncanny ability to outwit and defeat so many of his kind with reputations as skilled swordsmen and women. The fact others of great charisma have used him down the centuries as a powerful weapon seems to indicate an individual limited to the ambitions of those he has pledged his loyalty to, but with no aspirations of his own.
                    I have a theory : just as people with autism compensate by becoming great artists, mathematicians, etc., so Huneric has made up for his personal shortcomings by having an amazing ability to instantly analyse an opponent’s technique in battle and then overcome it with the appropriate counter-moves. He’d fought and killed ten Immortals with fearsome reputations before he took the head of Rosendo of Castile from the Spanish Cabal and then wiped out the Knights of Charlemagne. In fact, it appears the only opponents he has a weakness against are those able to quickly switch techniques multiple times in mid-fight : Richeard of Mercia, Frankie Drummond and Deoneces of Sparta, who took out his right eye and nearly his head. Is he still alive out there somewhere ? If he is, I speculate it won’t be long before he emerges again, as it seems he enjoys pitting himself against the best swords in the Immortal community.

We didn't interfere at this time, so let the Game being played on.

The Crimson Butterfly wasn't afraid, she killed nearly forty Immortals in her life and De Souza wasn't even a prolific headhunter, just a woman who used the Game for her own purposes.The battle between the two women was a furious exhibition of raw power, a mix of rage from De Souza and nearly-orgasmic pleasure from the Butterfly who ENJOYS fighting other Immortals and takes as much pleasure from her battles as Xavier St. Cloud himself - Moroccan king of hedonism that he was. One hour later, the battle was done : Daria De Souza was on her knees, her eyes a mix of pain (right forearm lost in battle, sliced stomach) and anger. Then her eyes expressed nothing : her head fell to the ground.

Not an easy task, but Cozma and his team have proven themselves and with now three former disciple of Thor Steen on the side of the angels, they are scoring good points with Ravenwood : the Ragnarok gang is out of commission.

                    Kashta of Nubia and Sit-Hahtor Iunet were near the Cathedral of Notre-Dame, investigating the appearance of two Egyptian immortals bearing the hallmarks of ancient origins (powerful presence, undecipherable language patterns and the like), they were challenged by those two Egyptians, both males, dressed in black with long coats, shades masking the top of their faces.To Kashta and Sit-Hathor they spoke in a language used in the Lower Nile that predated the arrival of the Romans; their deameanor screamed 'challenge' and they wouldn't be denied.The immortals, who introduced themselves as Aref Al Mutadee and Tahar Tarek, weren't known to us but Kashta and his companion seemd to know them well : two assassin in serice to the Roman, then the Arabs, then the Ottomans, who betrayed their homeland countless of times and knew no master, nor God. The two men boasted they knew only one master : Ra ! 'He who rules the world and shall rule it until the end of times'.
                    Aref threatened to destroy the immortal community, taking each of its members one by one until Kashta and Iunet yelded and acknowledged Ra as their only master. Naturally, the two agents of Ravenwood couldn't let their enemies threaten Paris and challenged them to a fight : the following night, Quarter de la Defense at Midnight. Just the four of them. Tarek boasted that once they were through with them, the Parisians would be so demoralized that they would be easy picking for Ra's forces. Sit-Hathor retorted that the Parisian Defense Forces were well-organized that that Ra was welcome to try his might against the denizens of Paris.
                    The two duos separated. Iunet and Kashta gathered the ten immortals of Paris and advised them to e prepared for the battle to come : anyday, now. It could be tommorrow, the day after tomorrow. Agathe Vierny was ready, so were the more neutral immortals. Robert and Gina de Valicourt offered safe haven to those who needed it in their manor. The following night, Kashta and Sit-Hahtor met Mutadee and Tarek for the second time. The fight was long, took a lot of strenght and wits from the Nubian and his Egyptian friend against the two agents of Ra. Retrospectively, it is obvious the two assassins were meant to destroy the head of Ravenwood's operations in Paris but they didn't suceed : however skilled with the sword as they were, they would have needed to use the tactis of snipers to take their quarries out and immortals - especially long lived ones - are creatures of traditions.They proved to be extremely skilled with blades and at some point, Kashta and Sith-Hathor's Watchers thought Ravenwood would lose two more of its numbers. Yet no. Aref al Mutadee and Tarek fell on their knees and were quickly disposed of.

                    Maude may be a tough-as-nail, tall and vindictive fighter, she is like any Immortal after a fight : too weak to sustain another battle and its ensuing Q.

                    In London, Kellistra and Cleophon of Athens decided the CIA needed to disappear for good, their death assuring that America would evolve on its own, without the interference of Thomas Morehead and his group. The daughter of Ares and the son of Athena were aware not all CIA Immortals were evil : Moses Johnson, Estrella Acosto, Alice Chase and Gabriel Calvino did some good in their times : unfortunately, this was the COMBINED ImmortalS who needed to disappear. Cleophon wanted to spare some lives, but Kellistra reminded him they were at war and being merciful wasn't an option. Richeard of Mercia, however, disagreed and decided only the CIA's head needed to be severed.
                    Cleophon complied and sent the order to Richard of Mercia : the SIS was to hunt and kill the CIA Immortals who already were slowly disbanding : Estrela Acosto was investigating the matter of prisoners rights violations in Guantanamo Bay : Moses Johnson was clearing the ghettos of New-York from drug dealers : Chase and Calvino were hunting child-pornographers in California. Morehead, Felder and Fujita were the only ones active in Washington DC on the battlefield of the Senate.
                    Richeard of Mercia, Helen Bondeville and Eadwulf fought out the latter three in Washington, Morehead couldn't believe his mentor was coming after him and, in rage, violently fought for his life. Unfortunately, Richeard was stronger and prevailed. Felder and Fujita faced Helen and Eadwulf and showed as less mercy as Richeard had toward his former protege, although Eadwulf let Fujita keep his head. In Guantanamo Bay, Estrella was found by Allegra Chambers and had no choice but to face the British Immortal determined to finish her American counterpart. The fight was brief, yet Allegra decided against killing Acosto and let her live but she had to sever all ties with the American governement, Estrella swore to do so.The same deal was done in Washington with Fujita and in Calfornia with Chase and Calvino when faced with Raymond d'Amboise and with Moses Johnson in Manhattan when Alice Ming came after him. The Combined Immortals of America needed to stay disbanded and that meant its survivors had to stay clear from each others... or else.

                    Hideo Tanaka's weakness lies in his greatest quality : his code of honor he has been following for eight hundred years, the Bushido that guides each of his actions : Hideo Tanka never cheated for his entire life and has ben expecting other Immortals to follow his strict set of rules : naturally, he took out the Immortals who didn't value honor, tradition and discipline and often clashed swords with westerner Immortals with different set of ethics.
                    'The Teuton', as we dub him since there already is an unidentified German Immortal on our list, did everyting to destroy Hideo's life in Tokyo and to imperil his balance : he set the Japanese counterpart of the IRS on his bank account, he sent photographs of him confronting Matushiro Kanagawa (a known Yakuzaleader) to his mortal friends and colleagues of ravenwood - Japan, set his car on fire, set a bomb in his home : when that wasn't enough, he captured Hideo's associate Fujita Isei and sent to the Bushido warrior photographs of Fujita's mutilated, hideously tortured and decapitated body, going so far as to send a video of Fujita's last moments to hismoral wife and foster children. The horrified and pained Hideo Tanaka understood he was facing an Immortal who knew no bounds in dishing out misery and horror, and reported to his friends of Ravenwood in London, seeking informations about who the mysterious Immortal could be. Deoneces gave him the answer before boarding a plane to Tokyo : Vandal Immortal Huneric, former SS assassin and scum of the earth.
                    While Deoneces was on the plane, Huneric made his move against Tanaka, using every dishonorable tacticspossible : bullets, explosives, ninja weaponry, everything to weaken him before facing him. The fight was short, while a superb wordsman Hideo wasn't in a good Shape : his morale was hit, his right hand was missing and so was his left eye becasueof a solid charge of TNT. Hideo Tanaka died on his knees, but didn't beg for his life : he looked at Huneric in the eye, smiling 'Deoneces of Sparta is coming for you, German, I envy him and pity you.' After enjoyjng his second Quickening in mere days, Huneric the Vandal took a plane for Australia, right before Deoneces's landed in time to bury his friend.

                    Deoneces's sirens are doing well, he knows it, and there is no one on earth who can give him the stability and edge he needs in his life as an Immortal warrior and member of Ravenwood. In front of the old Spartan, Huneric started taunting him, stating that without his soldiers he wouldn't amount to much : however, it wasn't too late : he could join him at the side of his master, and ensure the peace of Memnet-Ra across the world. 'Peace ? ' Retorted, Deoneces, then turning to his friends, 'Ravenwood, WHAT IS YOUR PROFESSION ? ! ! ' he yelled. 'WAR ! WAR ! WAR ! ' answered four Immortals screaming. 'See ? Your master brought war to us, you chose dishonor while we answer with honor, and this is what will give us the victory in the end ! ! '.
                    While Huneric, dishonorable hunter, a plunderer, a murder and aformer SS had only murder and mayhem in his heart : he fought like a professional killer but had none of the skils and grace his quarry showed. In the end, Huneric realised he was the quarry, not the otherway around. A minute of distraction that proved fatal when Deoneces severed his swordarm through the armpit, leaving the Vandal screaming in pain on the ground. Deoneces didn't even let him murtter a few last words. A nazi didn't deserve a better fate. Watchers and Immortals quickely left the scene, the Quickening was going to be powerful and terribly hazardous to the attendees. Indeed it was : a beautiful phenomenon, the song of revenge of every Immortal Huneric killed and their scream of victory. It set such a powerful fire that the entire battleground was sterilized with but raw stone left.
                    Frances and Henry of Kent helped the exhausted Deoneces on his feet and the group quickely left the area

                    Baron Samedi has re-appeared in Porto-Novo, Benin, the root of Louisiana voodoo practiced by the old houngan. After leaving his zombified slave-warriors in New Orleans to be institutionalized in a psychiatric ward, Baron Samedi managed to create new ones in the space of a few months.
                    Suspecting foul play from Samedi, the two women investigated the origins of those attacks, which they found in Porto-Novo : not wanting to take on Samedi on their own, Meja and Bebe asked for reinforcements which came under the shape of the Secret Daggers.The six Immortals met and decided on a plan : there were at least twenty to thirty of those zombies, they would need to be killed immediately before they could arrest Baron Samedi. Bebe and Meja warned the Daggers that the houngan wouldn't let himself be arrested, he would rather kill himself before he would be brought down by agents of Ravenwood.
                    Meja and Bebe would proceed to the arrest while the Daggers would be the 'muscle' against Samedi's army. Sumaye and Assia were lucky to be alive as it were, Ravenwood didn't want to risk more losses.
                    Samedi's mansion was located on the outskirts of Porto-Novo by Marie-Louios d'Orty and Cain Brewser, guards everywhere, armed to the teeth with dogs : the Daggers had little difficulty taking them down with guns and ammo. The slave-warrior were another matter : thirty men and women armed with razor-sharp machetes, all mortals fortunately.

                    There was nothing Sigrid Solvig and Radu Cozma couldn't handle while Swenja Baatze and Lootje De Groot fooled around until Cozma reminded them to act like professionals : shoot first, play with swords later. Inside the house, a grizzly sight awaited Bebe and Meja : Samedi, in a gesture of defiance, took his own life, his body ceremonially sat on a throne, his head carefully placed in a jar. Baron Samedi had escaped the justice of Ravenwood.
                    Searching Samedi's house, the Daggers found conclusive evidences that Samedi was indeed a member of the Zodiac Brotherhood as Ravenwood suspected. He bore the robes of the Cancer, a sign that is as much a symbol of life and rebirth as it is of suffering and pain, perfect fit for a master of the undead world. His journals, written in a coded, undecipherable language, gave few clues on his associates in the Brotherhood : his computer, once cracked, allowed to give away the Helen King, Kamir, Mykhaltso Demidas as members of the Zodiac.
                    The Secret Daggers have landed on the island of Crete, joined by none other than KELLISTRA who got busy looking for the elusive Helen King (aka Eleni of Sparta). The group of Immortals hoped to find Helen cowering on the former headquarters of Memnet-Ra, a place they investigated last August, finding no clue on the Adversary's current whereabouts.
                    Kellistra gathered her troops for her third and final confrontation against the Black Serpent Queen of HISS. It is on the archaeological site of Knossos that Kellistra and her band fought a squad of swordsmen clad in black attire, their clothes bearign the mark of HISS : a royal cobra swallowing the earth, tattoed on their chests, two dozen wild-eyed fanatics surrounding theri mistress, the pathetically ageing Helen King, looking like a shadow of herself : Kellistra is rumored to have tempered with Hzelen's life-essence, thus negating her regenrative abilities. The ensuing battle proved to be epic, Kyra, Seraphina and the Daggers cutting a bloody trail though Helen's army while the woman cowered on Holy Grounds.
                    When the dust settled, the mortals had been disposed off : then suddendly an explosion shook the site of Knossos, the gatherered Immortals witnessed Helen's shrine being disintegrated by what sounded like thermite. All what was left of Helen were bloodied clothing band. The Serpent Queen evaded capture in her own fashion. Surprisingly, her Quickening wasn't reeived by any Immortal present : Kellistra explained how seven years ago she took Helen's life-essence, living her in the state of a frail mortal. What power she must master to be able to perform this !
                    In the city of Knossos, Kellistra acknowledged she made a mistake by leaving the child in Helen's care and decided to bring her back to London where she could be raised as a decent Immortal.

                    To be added to the Chronicles of Kamir and Sanjiv Gupta
                    After a relentless hunt across India, Hazeem al-Bachrim, Carter Wellan, Sanjiv Gupta and Peter Gaicus found Kamir, hiding in a shrine on the outskirts of Tanjore, Southern India. Clay and his squad gave an armed response to the attacks perpetrated by Kamir : they cleaved, hacked and butchered their way across one hundred armed-to-the-teeth thugs before finally being able to capture Kamir. Keeping his usual serene demeanor, Kamir told the four Immortals that Kali was his sole reason for living, serving her the only honor he asked and that when his master would finally rise to power after the final victory, he would siege by his side and rule Southern India forever, ridding it from both Muslim and Christian presence. The four warriors couldn't believe what they were hearing. All of this in the name of Kali ? Kamir finally offered a proper challenge to Sanjiv Gupta, his former teacher : 'let the blade decide who is in the right', he said.
                    Sanjiv Gupta's heart was broken : he had been Kamir's mentor and had taught the old Immortal everything he knew about warfare and about the goddess Kali. But he was unable to teach him the ways of peace, thus knowing hte same failure with him than Darius knew with Grayson. Two great men separated by hatred and who could have acomplished so many great things together, that is is a tragedy for us Watchers to have recorded the final battle between these two men.
                    The battle was fierce and savage, Kamir demonstrating enormous skills of the blade and that he wasn't the servant of a goddess of war and death for nothing : it was as if Kali herself was reincarnated behind Kamir's wild eyes. Sanjiv Gupta fought likea demon : the usually pacifical man wasn't afraid to let the mask slip and to show that he had been a warrior and leader of men 1700 years ago, a general who turned into a man of peace after one thousand years of warfare like Darius at the gates of Paris, centuries ago.
                    In the end, Gupta prevailed. Kamir adressed a mute prayer to Kali and closed his eyes. The Quickening was powerful enough to level Kamir's shrine while Hazeem al-Bachrim, Carter Wellan and Peter Gaicus watched from afar.

                    Sister fought sister when Kainath Bedi, disciple of Kamir, came after Kajari Bedi in New Delhi : Kainath urged Kajari to join her on the side of the Adversary, to avenge the death of Kamir. Kajari wanted nothing of this war, all she wanted was to survive. She was forced into a fight she didn't want and in the end, Kainath stood victorious. We never believed the two sisters would fight agaisnt each other someday, in spite of the Western world's belif about the Game. Alas, that day has arrived.

                    Kainath Bedi, adopted daughter of Indira Bedi and disciple of Kamir, came after Sanjiv Gupta's head, in revenge for the death of her mentor. Gupta tried to convince her that the war between Immortals would at long last be over, that it was time for peace to be settled between those of their kind. Kainath would hear none of this talk and backed Gupta to the point he was forced to fight to kill. Feeling this was his karma, that after killing Kamir he needed to give closure to his student's line, Gupta switched to a more agressive tactic and took the head of Kainath, days after he and the other allied Ravenwood Immortals had finished disgbanding Kamir's thugee cult.

                    To be added to the chronicle of Memnet-Ra and Nefertiri
                    The following has been written five days after the dust settled, when the battle was fought and won. It is a combination of the reports from Watchers on both sides of the chessboard as well as speculations on what exactly happened in Ra's house to trigger such a violent ending to the Immortals Word War, not counting the impact it had on the mortal world. Cleophon of Athens, Kellistra, Deoneces and Kyra of Sparta, Katherine of Samothrace, Xanthia of Melitus, i.e the last survivors of the group who took down the original Zodiac Brotherhood, as well as Seraphina, Henry of Kent, Frances Drummond, Clemont Haynes, i.e the surviving roster of Ravenwood with Kashta of Nubia and Sit-Hahtor Iunet entered Ra's palace that was built like an ancient Egyptian shrine.
                    A stairway led to a gigantic grotto where stood, throning, Memnet-Ra, his Queen Nefertiri
                    Ra and Nefertiri were a regal sight, two imposing Immortals believing themselves to be the equals of Gods, ruling over their court. Ra’s eyes shone with the intensity of a sun gone nova, an hypnotic gaez threatening to ensnare the group of intruders. Kellistra broke the silence by adressing the Immortal with harsh words, stating it was time to pay for the atrocities had had perpetrated in two thousand years. The so-called Game, the countless lives lost, the return of the self-delluded Zodiac Brotherhood.
                    This ‘only one’ nonsense. ‘There Can Be Only One Ra ! ’ screamed Memnet-Ra in rage, stating that Immortals were born from gods’ blood, that they are the chosen of the gods and must rule the universe as they are born to do. ‘We are princes of the universe, he said, we have blood of kings coursing our veins and tomorrow belongs to us. No man can be the equal of the Gods ! ’
                    Kellistra stated that no Immortal had the right to impose his dictate on the mortal world. Mortals have been building countless wonders, also committed countless atrocities, but ultimately Earth belonged to them. Not to a self-genocidal race on the brink of oblivion. Harsh words to be true, but there was passion in Kellistra’s voice. This was the true Kellistra : Abellona, the daughter of Ares, disciple of Kronos, Methos and many others who understood al-too well the true nature of Immortality : nothing but a reflection of mankind, capable of the best and of the worst.
                    Memnet-Ra’s crimes, she spoke, was to have awaken the worst in the hearts of Immortals across the globe : their violence, their greed, their taste for power, fortune, fame. The capacity of living centuries, millenias, ruling the world and perpetrating the worst atrocities escaping punishment. When last they met, Cleophon and Kellistra understood all this and spent the next two thousand years as a counterpoint to Ra’s ambitions, his endless hunger for power.
                    Ravenwood International was but the lastest generation of heroes who fought the forces of darkness over the last twenty centuries. Ra laughed at Cleophon and Kellistra : ‘the world is mine, my army is destroying yours and all those who do not join me will perish against the swords of my followers ! The final battle is being fought, the fruits of victory shall be mine ! I AM THE END OF TIMES ! ! ’
                    ‘If you take my head, he muttered, you will sign your death warrant’. To which Kellistra answered ‘I declare today the end of the Game, the end of your reign, and if my life is forfeit, SO BE IT ! '
                    Then turning to her brothers-in-arms, 'It’s been a thrill working with you guys, this is what I have been fighting for.’
                    Then she rushed to Memnet-Ra, sword held high. The fight, as reported by Drummond, was the asteroid hitting Tunguska : a veritable onslaught to end the carnage started two thousand years ago in Crete. Cleophon, the Ravenwood survivors, all watched ‘Kellistra of the Northern Winds’ take on Memnet-Ra, the one responsible for nearly destroying the Immortal world. In the end, Ra stood defeated, Kellistra’s chaos-fire sword at his throat. Everyone stood silent. Her last words were ‘leave the place quickly, everyone. And good luck.’
                    Ra’s head fell. So did Nefertiri's. The whisper of countless souls murdered by Ra seemed to permeate the mind of the attendees, the air charged itself with electricity. In awe, the Immortals left the cave and started running. Then it broke out like a sudden, furious storm. The double-Quickening was the wrath of all the Immortals Ra and Nefertiri ever killed during their long reign, it triggered a chain-reaction that led to the cave caving-in, followed by a brusque eruption of life-energies which engulfed Cleophon and Kellistra’s bodies.

                  Greetings, Gardner, old friend! Long time no see! So glad to hear from you again. Seeing you posting again on here made me dig out all those Chronicles we did together and chuckle at the fun times we had. I think I counted about 2500 Immortals or there abouts in my records.

                  BTW Did you ever do the Chronicles for those 12 Immortals Xanthia of Melitus killed during her Dark Quickening period?

                    Lady Sun was on a mission for Empress Mu of China when Xanthia finally caught up to her after thirty years of hunting her former disciple. Lady Sun was a skilled fighter but couldn’t thing of raising her sword against her teacher and Metopholus had wanred her : if she took Xanthia’s head, she risked beign infected with the dreaded Dark Quickening. Sun had few possibilities left, other than running and hinding, two things Xanthia originally taught her to avoid. She taught her to stand her ground. And finally Lady Sun just did that and faced what was to come. Bactria’s night skies were illuminated with her passing Quickening and when Xanthia received the life-edssence of her student, her Watcher could swear he saw the killer cry over the grave she herself dug for her with her own two hands.

                    In a moment of lucidity, when rationality was hers again, Xanthia of Melitus sought the help of Darius whom she heard was living in Mongolia, but found one of his disciples instead : Abraham of Kratia, a holy immortal and Christian missioniary, known to help the infirms of body and of mind and who could cure Xantia’s madness, at least she hoped. Abraham got wind of the madwoman coming to him through the immortal grapevine (a letter sent by the shadowy Manius Remus, possibly Methos) and was a bit on his guard, but Christian charity commanded him to help the ancietn immortal and Xanthia looked truly sincere.
                    Abraham put his hand on her forehead, his Watcher reported, and sent a prayer to God. But that wasn’t enough. Xanthia seemed to recover for a time but suffered a brutal relapse and took Abraham’s head outside of Holy Grounds before leaving.

                    The Siege of Constantinople in 626 saw the battle of Xanthia of Melitus (again under the influence of a Dark Quickening) against ‘Shibtu of Yambad’ as she introduced herself, a consort and favorite of the Emperro fo Constantinople. The fight, long and harduous, ended with Xanthia’s victory, the Quickening was quite powerful and rich, alluding to an immortal of ancient age. Shibtu’s background remained undetermined until her name was found mentioned in a chronicle of Egyptian Ankh-Psantek in 1274 BC, she was a consort of his and had to defend herself against his jealous rage until she disappeared from Watcher scope.
                    Ishtar of Erech is the immortal who disclosed her origin story of Jesus of Nazareth during their yearly trip to the Museum of Louvres in Paris, as she was the subject of an exposed painting.

                    Gideon, developped a fanatic hatred for those who
                    persecuted the Jews

                    The Zealots were originally a political movement in 1st century Second Temple Judaism which sought to incite the people of Judaea Province to rebel against the Roman Empire and expel it from the Holy Land by force of arms, most notably during the First Jewish–Roman War (66-70). One of those Zealots was immortal Gershem Ben-Zion, a disciple of the legendary Gideon and a ferce ennemy of Rome and devoted to the cause of Jews's freedom to suimply exist.
                    For six hundred years he fought the legions led by Marcus Constantine until the fall of Rome.
                    In 630 he was helping fellow Israelites running from persecutions by Emperor Heraclius when he was found and killed by a red-haired Jewess identified as Xanthia of Melitus, still udner the influence of the Dark Quickening she received in 550 in India.

                    Encounter with Carpus Cornelius, centurion under
                    Scipio Africanus’s command

                    Protiz of Cadiz was the first known disciple of Cassandra and the man to whom she referred to as her first student to Roland Kantos when she mentored him in Hispania, circa 415 AD and as having lived for eight hundred years at the very least before he disappeared in 206 BC at the time of Gadir’s capture by the Romans. After Kantos parted ways with his teacher, he sought to find Cassandra’s older student in the hope to learn from him and – we suppose, knowing that man well – in the hope of taking his Quickening. Kantos spent one century hunting Protis but never found him. However, the beheaded body of an ageing man was found in Southern Spain, in Murcia in 489, with evidences of a Quickening around. While we cannot prove this was Protiz, there is still a possibility that Kantos found his man. Indeed, elderly immortal are very scarce and Kantos was dedicated in his quest. Did Protis die by the blade of Kantos, nothing is certain.

                    Update :

                    Protis of Cadiz was killed in 636 by a red-haired madwoman we can assume was Xanthia of Melitus during the centuries when she was possessed by a Dark Quickening. Protis lived in Tiberias in Galilea and was keeping a shrine where he housed Jewish families. He didn’t suspect the beaitiful Minoan woman posing a a Jewess would come after his head.

                    After 92 years of hunting his old friend, Metopholus finally caught up to Xanthia in Alexandria the year the city was besieged by the Muslims who ordered the burning of Alexandria’s library. A tragedy for the wise Prisca Negra, a Nubian woman once disciple of Sunda Kastagir, and who sought to preserve the world knowledge, only to see it burnt down. But nothing could save her from pillaging Arabs and from the demented Xanthai who took her out after a brief battle. Did Prisca Negra’s Quickening sane her up ? Or was it Prisca’s innate goodness and widsom which washed away Xanthia’s anger and hate ? When Metopholus found Xanthia, it was as if she was reverting to her old self, but the ancient immortal knew better and took her to Tripolitania, to an ancient shrine located in a cave, where he left her on her own for seven days and nights, until Xanthia finally rid herself from her demons. The shrine was kept by a Muslim friend of his, Fayrul ibn al-Din who made sure Xanthia was kept safe.
                    In the end, Xanthia’s goodness prevailed and she was back to her senses, but befallen with the memories of the good immortals she murdered and of the mortals lives she destroyed during her rampaging years.

Love to read more, got any new ones you've done while we've been away? I look forward to these Immortal sessions again LOL

                        Hey, Gardner! Kind of lost my motivation when this place became unavailable and had no one to share ideas with. It wasn't the same without that fun back and forth between us, me coming up with names and you creating these wonderful characters from a brief outline. Plus, life problems got in the way a bit, so I kind of had even less motive to carry on. Then, I discovered this place was back so I rejoined and have been visiting ever since, wondering if you'd be back. Now that you are I've suddenly got a little of that spark back again!

                        The Legendary Sunda Kastagir, aka Sundiata Keita, was not only legendary for his prowess with a sword, his ability to charm women of all ages, but for his parties. He learned his craft in the court of Cleopatra and Marc Anthony, he was one of the <insert names>. The <insert name> through drinking parties after the defeat at Antioch and kept at it until Marc Anthony and Cleopatra commited suicide. Not long after Sunda found himself in the party capital of the Ancient World -Rome. It was here that Chroniclers say that he began to work on a liquor he called Boom Boom. It was called Boom Boom because the next day that’s the only thing that you could hear was “boom boom” inside your head. But although he loved a great party, Sunda was a good and loyal friend. If you were in trouble he would drop what he was doing and rush to help.

                        Traditions identify a variety of different names for the three wise Magi who presented Jesus Christ and his parents with presents at the time of his birth. In the Western Christian church they have been commonly known as:

                        Melchior, a Persian scholar, identified as the late Melchior of Babylon. Caspar, an Ethiopian scholar, identified as Sunda Kastagir
                        Balthazar, an Arabian scholar, identified as Alis Ag Emoctar. Encyclopædia Britannica states that "according to Western church tradition, Balthasar is often represented as a king of Arabia, Melchior as a king of Persia, and Gaspar as a king of India." These names apparently derive from a Greek manuscript probably composed in Alexandria around 500, and which has been translated into Latin with the title Excerpta Latina Barbari. Qataban was one of the ancient Yemeni kingdoms which thrived in the Beihan valley (4th century BCE – 3rd century CE). Like the other Southern Arabian kingdoms, it gained great wealth from the trade of frankincense and myrrh incense, which were burned at altars. The capital of Qataban was named Timna and was located on the trade route which passed through the other kingdoms of Hadramaut, Saba and Ma'in; the immortal who became known as Balthazar was bon in the First Century before the birth of Christ and was mentored by Kellistra, at that time the wife of a merchant of frankincense. Nothing else is known of Kellistra's activites at that time, aside for her mentoring Balthazar who would later associate himself with Melchior of Babylon and Sunda Kastagir.

                        The elder MacLeod is an enigma. He's a very serious player of the Immortal Game and a very good one. He has deep respect for its Rules and nuances, and is always calculating, staying one step ahead of his opponents. Unlike his younger kinsman Duncan, Connor MacLeod keeps his thoughts and feelings very much to himself, although occasionally he will let a smile or his trademark staccato laugh slip out. There are a few things that can penetrate his serious exterior -- the Scottish Highlands, the sea, and "good women." He's rarely happier than when he has a field of blooming heather or the deck of a fast ship beneath his feet. Connor venerates the memory of his first wife, Heather, but that has not prevented him from finding love several times since. The legendary Juan Sanchez Villa-Lobos Ramirez, his first teacher, helped show him how to strike a balance between serious Game player and lover of life. Although Connor MacLeod hasn't won The Game yet, you can bet he'll be a force to reckon with when The Gathering finally comes.

                        I think the death of Brenda Wyatt was the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back. After the death of Brenda Wyatt, Sunda Kastagir, countless lovers and friends over the last four centuries, Connor MacLeod just couldn't take it anymore. The pain, the loneliness, the endless fighting, the pointless butchery caused by the Game. His cheerful attitude in when he fought Slan Quince in Seattle was faked :
                        he pretended to be happy when he felt hollow inside. Ramirez was dead, Kastagir was dead, all the other heroes were too much in the shades of grey of the mortal world. Connor wanted respite from the Game and maybe he obtained it wherever he is hiding in present times.

She wasn’t as disullusioned about revolitions as her teacher Talia Bauer turned out to be, she fought with the same vigor and found a bitter ennemy in Colonel Melike, standing against him for the last time during the military coup of 1980 that overthrew the leadership of President William Tolbert, led by Colonel Samuel Doe, himself supported by Melike.

                          Immortal Maiden and Jin Ke fought in one of the longest and most ragins fights ever recorded in Watcher history. While Jin Ke used to be one of the best blades of China an retained al his vigor, Immortal Maiden was a devious and tricky fighter who managed to take advantage of Jin Ke's weaknesses, eventually getting the upper hand. Jin Ke fell to his knees, muttering 'Ravenwood will come for you, your little war is over' before his head fell to the ground. The ensuing Quickening was a mighty one, triggering a sudden, raging storm over Taiwan and causing for several millions of Taiwanese dollars of property damage. After properly disposing of the bodies and giving Jin Ke the funeral he deserved, May-Ling Shen and Hideo Tanaka went in search for the Maiden had vanished without a trace. They are presumably looking out for their next targets, possibly in Japan or in Europe where the Immortals Word War is still going strong.

                          Met and befriended Khabul Khan


                          Watcher Research recorded that the Immortals Kane, Khabul Khan and Senghi Khan vanished in 1590 on Mount Niri, Japan, at the time that Master Nakano was listed as Missing believed Killed at the hands of Kane. 164 years later, the three Immortals resurfaced unexpectedly in Shansi province, China, where their chronicles were to cross that of the fearsome Spartan Immortal Deoneces. At the time, he was travelling in the Far East when he heard wild tales of three Chinese gods walking among the people of Shansi province, bringing fear and terror and demanding tribute.

                          Deoneces went to investigate and discovered countless towns and villages living in fear of the God of War, Huan-Ti and his servants, Chao Kung Ming, the demi-God of War, and Chin-Chiang Fyu-ya, the punisher of the gods. Suspecting the work of Immortals, Deoneces tried to convince the people that the gods were not gods at all, merely men posing as gods, but the fearful population had seen too much to be convinced by the words of not just a stranger, but a barbarian. Determined to prove his words were true, Deoneces had to show the cowed populace the tyrants were not gods. He discovered that once a month, Huan-Ti (or Kane, as the Spartan was soon to learn) sent one of his henchmen to collect tribute from the villages; a virgin girl for Kane's harem.

                          Deoneces was there when Senghi Khan, posing as Chin-Chiang, rode into one of those villages to collect tribute. The Spartan challenged the Mongol and the two fought in the village square in front of the villagers and Khan's warriors. Deoneces overpowered Khan, and there, in full view of everyone, he struck off his head. The Quickening lit up the night sky and convinced the people, including Khan's own terrified warriors, that Deoneces was the Slayer of Gods. Filled with hope, young men and women from the surrounding towns and villages flocked to him and pledged themselves to him. Deoneces began training them in the Spartan way, preparing them for a fight he knew was coming.

                          When four weeks passed and Kane had not seen or heard from Senghi and word reached him that rebellion was brewing among the people, fermented by a stranger who had apparently "slain a god," he knew an Immortal was involved and dispatched Khabul Khan and his best warriors to deal with the problem. But Deoneces was waiting for him. He lured Khabul and his elite cavalry into one of the villages and then sprung a deadly trap: hordes of archers emerged from hiding and a third of Khabul's warriors fell in the first volleys, before phalanxes of spearmen surrounded the rest and put them to the sword. Amid the slaughter, Deoneces confronted and slew Khabul Khan. He sent the severed head to Kane in his mountain fortress, before marching to confront the false god.

                          Deoneces and his army laid siege to Kane's fortress for a week before its defences crumbled and the Spartan and his army stormed inside. While his well-trained army of peasants and former warriors of Kane sacked the castle, Deoneces confronted Kane. It was an epic battle, fought through the corridors and on the battlements, finally ending in Kane's own thrown room. Eventually, the Spartan's strength and relentlessness was enough to overcome Kane, who sank to his knees, his swordarm severed at the elbow, fear etched on his face for the first time, but defiant to the end. The Spartan's sword brought Kane's reign of terror to an end and the Quickening destroyed the throne room, set fire to the drapes and left the entire fortress ablaze.

                          In the chaos that followed, Deoneces slipped quietly away into the night, but his legend lives on in Shansi province to this day as the "Bringer of Lightning, Slayer of Gods."

                            Nakano

                            Nakano's first death dates from 743 BC when he was an old monk trying to discover the secret of immortality so that he could benefit mankind with his knowledge; he had heard tales of immortal men and women who rose from the grave hafter having been struckl by lightning bolts. Nakano learn one of the most important lessons of his life during a stormy night when he was electrocuted by a lightning bolt and was resurrected. Since then, Nakano has crossed paths with many Immortals, including his first teacher, the ancient Sun Tzu who studied the arts of war and taught the rules of immortality to Nakano. Nakano studied Zen Buddhism under Nichiren the monk in the 1200s AD and became one of the ancient Japanese wise men known as "Yamabushis" who taught their Way to a select few. He has trained many mortals and Immortals over the centuries, including one Juan Sanchez Villalobos Ramirez (aka Tak Ne of Egypt) who learned from Nakano his metallurgy skills. Nakano was also a great sorceror and mastered the mystical power of illusion. Some of his more ambitious students, such as Kane, have desired this power and tried to kill him. His last student was Connor MacLeod, whose spiritual education he expanded, making him a better warrior, adding some illusion tricks to his skills. Nakano disappeared from Watcher records after Kane’s attempt at killing him, but we dought the Mongol managed to kill him : an old devil like Nakano with illusion-casting powers cannont be put down so easily. We believe he is still living outhere, drinking to the health of past friends and enjoying his immortality.


                            Watcher Research, East Asia - Japan

                            A violent character with uncompromising morals, placing the Law before everything, possibly to atone for the countless cimes he comitted in his “youth” : Kobayashi killed Immortal holy men from Japan on orders from Matsuhiro Kanagawa who sought to destroy Master Nakano Yodarushi and thus sent his disciple after any Immortal shrine keepr he could find, helped by hired muscle who would forcefully take the unfortunate Immortal out of Holy Grounds where Kobayashi would execute him or her. So far, four that we know of were murdered, all from different religions in Japan, including a Christian priest, two shintoist monks and a zen buddhist who studied under Nichiren in the 13th century. All innocent men, none of them Nakano Yodarushi.

                            Kobayashi got a change of heart after his encounter with a “Holy Man” in 1952, whose Quickening altered his personality and changed a bandit into a champion of the Law. The identity of the Holy Man isn’t known to us but clues point us to Master Nakano Yodarushi, missing since the 17th century and whose illusion-casting powers match the Holy Man’s : apparently an Immortal able to blend so much with his environment that it looked like magic. Who knows. Kobayash, a master hunter, found him anyway and killed him. The Q. Kobayashi received is called a “Light Quickening’, contrary to a Dark Quickening that changes a good man into an evil Immortal, the Light one does the opposite. Kobayashi has been at war with his teacher Kanagawa ever since, before the latter’s death in 2006.The Law hasn’t had a champion like him since the days when Mako was taming the wild west in the 19th century or the state of Texas in the 1990’s.

                              Gaius Suetonius Paulinus ordered the Roman army to destroy the Celtic Druid stronghold on Anglesey in Britain, sacking Druidic colleges and sacred groves. The massacre helped impose Roman religion on the world and sent Druidism into a decline from which it never recovered; Amergan was high priest of the Anglesey stronghold and survived only to bury his brethen and to see the Druid cult vanish into obscurity until his death three hundred years later by the blade of Blasius Suetonus, marking his first and only recorded appearance.
                              Later research allowed him to identify him as a past student of Druidess Asteria of Gaul at a time when she lived as a Druidess in Celtic Britain during the times of Britannia's invasion by the Romans.

                              Winston was born a slave and was killed by British soldiers who murdered his family during the represals of 1884 in Jamaica. After that, he became a fearsome adversay for the colons, posing a a vengeful spirit. By the turn of the century, Winston left the island and landed in New Orleans where he became a Voodoo cultist under the guidance of Baron Samedi, a houngan and fellow immortal who taught him of his true nature and of the Game. Winston lived in New Orleans another twenty years until he moved to the black continent, hiring himself to petty warlords and dictators as merc, using his immortality and voodoo knowledge to forge a rep for himself. Then, in 1944, he met up with Grayson and Callestina in North Africa who hired him to do their ‘dirty laundry’ : assassinations and enforcement.

                              The SIS’s own explosive expert, Allegra Chambers investigated a string of terrorist attacks from a gang of bombmakers making dozens of victims in the centertown of Manchester where only recently she took out the ringleader of a sex-slave operation and also an Immortal. This time the ringleader also turned out to be an Immortal mercenary working for the Jamaican underground of London with links to ISIL. It seems Winston Mobay became a Muslim and had his mind turned over by the Caliphate of Iran, triggerred several attacks between London, Leeds, Birmingham and Manchester. The SIS was on the call and it was Allegra who had to take the Jamaican out of the Game he played on 27 June after the three successive attacks on London this same months.
