Patrik Fetladral was an Elemental that achieved the rank of Khan of Clan Wolf-in-Exile during the Dark Age era.
History
Early life
Decanted on Kandersteg, while growing up in his sibko he drove himself to excellence to live up to the example set down from Evantha Fetladral. Even though he was not a direct descendant of her, it did not stop from inspiring him to do his best.[1]
When he took part in his Trial of Position, Patrik was able to accomplish enough kills to enter the Clan Wolf-in-Exile touman as a Star Commander. In the span of seven years he was able to rise to the rank of Galaxy Commander. Shortly after, he attained his Bloodname, became an aide to Khan Josip Rhyde, elected saKhan, and then finally to the rank of Khan. He was able to accomplish all this by the age of 31.[1]
Khan
In 3128, Patrik returned to the planet of his birth to attend the millennial anniversary ceremony for the Second Donegal Guards, where he was the focus of much attention. When the planet was attacked by Falcons during the celebration, Patrik led a point of Elementals into battle, riding a Flamberge piloted by the unit CO, Leutnant-General Arnaud Zardetto. He rescued DBC reporter K. Madeline Schroeder from a wrecked 'Mech before helping to eliminate the remaining Falcons nearby.[3]
Patrik fielded the proposal from Archon Melissa Steiner to mediate a deal with Clan Wolf. The deal consisted of having the Wolves partake in the invasion with the Lyran Commonwealth of the fractured Free Worlds League and carve out a new nation. The Exiled Wolves continued to be the go-betweens during Operation HAMMERFALL.[1]
When Clan Wolf turned on the Lyrans, Patrik and his Wolves showed their position by fighting against their distant cousins. Patrik's troubles did not ease from there, he had to lead the defense of the Commonwealth against their longtime enemy, Clan Jade Falcon.[1]
By this time, he had developed into not just a formidable military leader, but an adept politician and diplomat as well. Patrik was equally at home navigating the power structure of House Steiner as he was navigating the back streets of a Lyran city.[4]
Death
After years of fighting the Falcons along the border, Malvina Hazen decided to move in-force against Arc-Royal. Enraged by an attack by a Star of Falcon Elementals on the Wolf sibkos, which resulted in the deaths of five full sibkos, Fetladral challenged his Falcon counterpart to one-on-one combat. Hazen responded by ordering her command Star to concentrate their fire on the Wolf Khan, killing him.[2]
