He became known for his widely-distributed treatises criticizing the [[Golden Ordun]] and all involved in its creation and implementation. Though this earned him the the ire of many within the Clan and he faced numerous [[Trial of Grievance|Trials of Grievance]], he defeated every challenger, notably without killing them, and he continued to write papers critical of the Hell's Horses past actions. Peter sees that, because the Horses have not adapted to the Inner Sphere while the others have, the other [[Council of Six Clans|Spheroid Clans]] see the Horses as "good for a punchline and little else," and he is determined to find a way to right his Clan. These papers also caught the attention of [[Loremaster]] [[Sachiko Ravenwater]], who held similar feelings about the path their Clan was on. Peter became her military aide and was given numerous opportunities to earn prominence and advancement within the Clan that the contempt of his writings by others in positions of power may have denied him. − − Peter was allowed to participate in the planning sessions for [[Operation STAMPEDE]], where he highlighted potential issues and offered reasonable options to address the issues. While his planning advice was heeded, discovery of the Clan Wolf and Clan Jade Falcon drives to Terra, and the egos of the Horses Khans, derail the operation. Khan [[Gottfried Amirault]] and [[saKhan]] [[Fulk Lassenerra]] potentially earned their Clan a dangerous enemy upon visiting Terra and the new ilKhan. − − Returning from Terra, the Horses expand and continue Operation STAMPEDE. A disastrous loss at [[Sudeten]] ends the operation and increases the animosity between the Khans. A [[Clan Council]] was called, saKhan Lassenerra stated his case for a [[Trial of Position]] for Khan, and defeated Amirault in a Circle of Equals. A new saKhan was elected, Loremaster Ravenwater was promoted, and Peter Cobb fought for his own promotion in a Circle of Equals. ==Featured characters== ==Featured characters== − {{div col|colwidth=25em}} * [[Gottfried Amirault]] * [[Gottfried Amirault]] − * [[Lucian Camejo]] * [[Peter Cobb]] * [[Peter Cobb]] − * [[Patricia DeLaurel]] − * [[Marguerite Grimheald]] − * [[Enzi Kerensky]] * [[Fulk Lassenerra]] * [[Fulk Lassenerra]] * [[Ryker Mitchell]] * [[Ryker Mitchell]] * [[Sachiko Ravenwater]] * [[Sachiko Ravenwater]] * [[Laila Renwick]] * [[Laila Renwick]] − * [[Bran Valkoinen]] * [[Alaric Ward]] * [[Alaric Ward]] − * [[Ziven (Clan Hell's horses)]] − {{div col end}} ==Featured Planets== ==Featured Planets== − {{div col|colwidth=25em}} * [[Benfled]] * [[Benfled]] * [[Colmar]] * [[Colmar]] Line 71:
