Warrior House White Tiger was an unofficial Warrior House of the Capellan Confederation during the Jihad era, staffed by native Capellan Thuggee Cult cultists and Thuggee Domini "Phansigars" from the Word of Blake Militia.

History[edit]

Formation[edit]

The Warrior House was raised in secret by Kali Liao and the Word of Blake's Precentor Martial Cameron St. Jamais. Unlike its sister unit, Warrior House Rakshasa, its members were a mixture of Thuggee cultists and Blakist Manei Domini.[3]

Jihad[edit]

The White Tigers made their first public appearance in combat in September 3071, when the AFFS mounted an attack against Warrior House Rakshasa on their homeworld of Highspire. The White Tigers joined with their brethren in wiping out the attackers.[4]

At Kali Liao's order the White Tigers undertook a brutal raid against Les Halles in the Free Worlds League in April 3073.[5] While this led to Oriente making their own counter-raid a month later, it also (according to Kali Liao at least) resulted in peaceful relations between the League and Confederation being re-established.[6]

Warrior Houses Rakshasa and White Tiger were later secretly deployed to Sian by the Blakists for an all-out assault upon the Capellan government, which began in January 3074. On January 14th, the Rakshasa were attacking the Celestial Palace when they unexpectedly came under fire from their own brethren. At Kali Liao's order the White Tigers aided the CCAF defenders by turning on the Rakshasa, ensuring that the Blakist Warrior House was destroyed. The White Tigers then tore into the Blakist Militia, disrupting their attack and enabling the CCAF defenders to rout them from Sian. According to Kali Liao's own account, she had forged the White Tigers from the beginning as a tool to save her brother's realm.[3][2][7][6]

In the aftermath of the battle, the few surviving White Tigers were taken into custody by the Maskirovka. They were interrogated and dissected, with their ultimate fate unknown.[3]
