Line 35: In the early 3070s, Khan Montose devised a plan to invade [[Clan Jade Falcon]]'s [[Occupation Zone]] as part of her plan to create an OZ for the Ice Hellions at the cost of the Falcons. She mustered all their frontline combat Galaxies and divided them between herself and Conner. Rood was given command of three Galaxies for his Task Force, [[Delta Galaxy (Clan Ice Hellion)|Delta]], [[Zeta Galaxy (Clan Ice Hellion)|Zeta]], and his own Beta Galaxy. His forces were to secure the Periphery border, while she would secure industrial worlds to bolster their declining [[Clan Ice Hellion Touman|''touman'']] strength.

Khan Rood also instituted a colonization program of worlds between the Imperio and the Hanseatic League. Also Castilian and Umayyad civilians were given the means to attain status though Higher Education. Using Clan influenced Trials of Worth, students competed for places in Universities whose faculty was staffed by the Scientist caste.

But, after Kliff's death, he ordered his ''giftake'' to be taken, to preserve his lineage. − − Later, when Galaxy Commander [[Mull Elam]] refused to be choosed SaKhan, fearing being assasinated too, Rood decided to create a bodyguard unit for the SaKhan, the ''Hellion Keshik'', composed of Beta's best warriors of all origins. He assembled the Scorpion's entire ''touman'' in [[Valencia]], delivering a fiery, invective-filled adress against discrimination, remembering all the presents than the Absorption was part of the Way of the Clans, and promised a reckoning for those which choose safety over glory. Finally, he offered five brand-new [[Hellion]] 'Mechs for the best members of the new Keshik, which he had ordered built as a symbol of unity, despite the costs. His efforts fully succeeded, beginning a fiery competition to be part of the Keshik.
