Lucie Morris was a founding member of Clan Nova Cat and the Morris Bloodname.[1]

History[edit]

Operation KLONDIKE[edit]

Morris participated in Operation KLONDIKE, ilKhan Nicholas Kerensky's campaign to reconquer the Pentagon Worlds.[1]

Oathmaster[edit]

Following Operation KLONDIKE, and the accession of Khan Sandra Rosse in 2822, her first act as Khan was the creation of the Oathmaster position. The Oathmaster had the job of ensuring all Clan members strictly followed the beliefs, practices and rituals of the Clans; in time they would also become responsible for overseeing the spiritual well-being of the Nova Cat Clan.

She named Lui Cheng, her most ardent supporter, to be the Clan's first Oathmaster, an act which greatly angered Nicholas Kerensky. In the Grand Council he denounced this as a slideback to the bad old ways and challenged her to a Trial of Refusal on behalf of all the Nova Cat warriors denied the chance to win the position fairly in a Trial of Position. Clan Wolf won the right to fight on behalf of the ilKhan and succeeded in defeating Khan Rosse's Nova Cat forces. While seemingly handing the young Khan a humiliating defeat so early in her career, Sandra Rosse instead saw it as confirmation of the importance of such a role. She graciously accepted Lucie Morris as the first true Oathmaster when the MechWarrior defeated all other challengers for the position.[2][3]
