Blood Fang

History[edit]

The Liberator-class cruiser Blood Fang was one of a number of WarShips identified as being active within the touman of Clan Wolf following the Refusal War fought between Clan Jade Falcon and Clan Wolf. The Blood Fang was serving alongside the First Wolf Cavalry Assault Cluster at this point in time.^[1]

The Blood Fang was one of two Liberators identified as serving in the Clan Jade Wolf touman in January 3059; her sister ship, the Fuego Lobo, was serving as the flagship of the Clan Jade Wolf Naval Reserve under the command of Star Commodore Amel Radick,^[1] and later was assigned as a WarShip of the Crusader Clan Wolf.

Only six Liberators are known to have been created by the Clans, each such cruiser being one of six Avatar-class heavy cruisers that survived the Amaris Civil War and accompanied Commanding General Aleksandr Kerensky on the Exodus.^[2] Those six Liberators include the Constantineau, which served with Clan Burrock^[3] and then later Clan Star Adder;^[4] CJF Gauntlet, in service with Clan Jade Falcon;^[5] the Korat, which served with Clan Snow Raven^[6] and Clan Smoke Jaguar,^[7] and the CCS Spirit In The Sky, in service with Clan Coyote.^[8] In 3059, Clan Wolf—the renamed Clan Jade Wolf—was known to have two Liberators serving within its touman, the CWS Jerome Winson and the CWS Victoria Ward in accounts contemporary to those identifying the other four Liberators.^[9] It is therefore very likely that the Blood Fang and her sister ship Fuego Lobo were renamed to the Jerome Winson and the Victoria Ward at some point in 3058.
