History[edit]
Newton Fawcett was a Precentor within ComStar who rose to command the 207th Division between 3055 and 3061.[1]
After the Free Worlds League Military recaptured Oliver as part of Operation GUERRERO in 3057, the 207th was transferred into the Lyran Alliance, moving its headquarters to the Lyran world of Virtue. With its deployment covering a broad swath of worlds anti-spinward and coreward of Alarion, the 207th was among the most isolated and widely dispersed in the Com Guards, leaving the division all too open to Blakist infiltration. With a resurgence of pre-Reformation nonreligious practices in the division, the retirement and replacement of Anastasius Focht by Victor Steiner-Davion as Precentor Martial of ComStar in 3061 triggered those with the strongest Blakist sympathies, including the 207th's then CO Precentor Fawcett, to outright defect to the Word.[2] [1]
