Usze 'Taham: Difference between revisions

Although Usze ‘Taham was born into a respected merchant family, he was fathered by [[Toha ‘Sumai]] - one of the prominent sword-fighters of this age, meaning that Toha mated with his mother, a privilege granted by being a ''Swordsman'' and he was raised by his mother and her husband. Usze graduated with honors from the top war college in the [[Iruiru]] region of [[Yermo]], [[Sanghelios]] (a distinction he shares with [[Rtas 'Vadum]]). Shortly after receiving his first post within the [[Covenant]] [[Covenant Navy|Navy]] he was offered a place on the [[Prophets]]’ [[Honor Guard]] but he declined citing “lack of practical experience”. In truth, he had no desire to be part of a largely ceremonial unit, and at the end of his third combat tour, Usze ‘Taham again refused the post, even though his superiors warned him such behavior could be misinterpreted as [[wikipedia:Apostasy|apostasy]] or disobedience.
