Kitsune Kurita rose to prominence in [[3093]] when he led a joint [[DCMS]]/[[Republic Armed Forces|RAF]] force against a major Black Dragon base on [[Shimonita]]. For this action which ended four years of Black Dragon raids into the Republic, Kitsune was offered Republic citizenship and a knighthood. His public insistence that his rank would be bestowed on him by "one without whom I would be nothing" would lead to an uproar within elements of both the Draconis Combine and the [[Federated Suns]]. Kitsune was referring to his father, [[Victor Steiner-Davion]], and this revelation of his parentage caused hundreds of Black Dragon members to commit ''seppuku'' out of shame for having supported a 'tainted' heir's claim to the Combine throne. The reaction from anti-Kurita partisans in the [[Draconis March]] was equally virulent (if less lethal), as Kitsune's mother was portrayed as a nefarious seducer of their nation's former First Prince.<ref name=GWchap17>''Ghost War'', Chapter 17 (PDF version)</ref> <ref name=HWOREp18/>
