Biography
Stalling the Great Debate
Born to a Bloodname House known for its Elementals[3], Royce Chapman was Khan of his Clan by the time Clan Ghost Bear Khan Nadia Winson called for the Grand Council to vote for an invasion of the Inner Sphere. Seeking to stall such an invasion, Khan Kerlin Ward of Clan Wolf was able to convince Khan Chapman and his saKhan that their plans to establish a new Star League with the governments of the Inner Sphere was best served by his proposal to send a reconnaissance force to ascertain the strengths of the Great Houses. The Viper Khans angered several Crusader Clans - especially Clan Jade Falcon - by voting to send what would eventually become the Wolf's Dragoons on this mission. Their votes were enough to tip the scale in Khan Ward's favor, and any Crusader invasion plans were stalled for decades to come.[1][2]
