Fratricide

Fratricide attacking Tyrina Drummond's Trebaruna

Fratricide was a Clan Wolf Carnivore Assault Tank that participated in Clan Wolf's invasion of the Republic of the Sphere as well as the ilClan Trial against Clan Jade Falcon in 3151.[1]

History[edit]

Fratricide was crewed by Warriors Hawkins and DuJordan, and was attached to the Second Wolf Assault Cluster, the "Howling Furies". During the fighting against the RAF to pacify Terra in preparation for the ilClan trial, the crew of Fratricide successfully killed Paladin Tyrina Drummond, destroying her Trebaruna by forcing it to fall over before crushing its cockpit with a ramming attack. This kill was personally witnessed by the Khan of Clan Wolf, Alaric Ward, who was so impressed with the crew of Fratricide that he promised them a mention in the Remembrance.[2]

Hawkins and DuJordan went on to defeat a second Paladin, Janella Lakewood, destroying her Tundra Wolf with the aid of a Wolf Warhammer IIC.[3]

Later, during the ilClan Trial, commanding officer of the Howling Furies Star Colonel Kalidessa Kerensky chose to mark Hawkins and DuJordan out for special distinction, presenting them with a pair of unique kill markers resembling chessboard knights in commemoration of their victories over two Paladins of the Republic.[4] Kalidessa later saved the crew of Fratricide from destruction at the hands of a Jade Falcon Jade Phoenix, stating that she could not allow it to kill "the most famous tank crew in the history of Clan Wolf".[5]
