History

After the Tamar Pact liberated Pandora, on 3151, Nobu would be Baron of Pandora. By 3152, he still retained the position. However, he was a corrupt leader, and wasn't loyal to the Pact, and began a plan to secede the planet from it and return it to the Lyran Commonwealth. To manage it, he began helping Tamar officers in need in exchange for their loyalty, when not blackmailing them. On 28 April 3152, thanks to some compromising recording, he obtained the forced loyalty of Kommandant Katherine Hakima, one of Tamar highest rank officers, in one of the last parts of his plan.[1]

On 3 May, Nobu was surprised to hear about the Gray Death Legion arrival on planet, as his plan was on the final stages, and he wasn't able to bribe or buy them. His main ally was Irwin keeling, of the Malthus Syndicate, which lead the 'Mechs production plant on planet, and he forced nobu to accept his thugh, Hector Jurasco, to lead the Pandora Planetary Guard, the newly formed unit, as its commander. He had to accept, and also send Deschanes, his assistant, to contact with the Legion and try to bribe them.[2]

On 5 May, Keeling activated the plan to overthrow the Pact, and Nobu was forced to follow suit, blaming the Legion of a terrorist attack which had decapitated the Pact's leadership, ordering the arrest of any non loyal officer.[3]

On 7 May, Nobu lost all contact with Jurasco's forces and also with Hakima. Fearing his plan can be failing, he contacted Keeling, asking reinforcements, but his partner, knowing Nobu had lost, abandoned him, taking all remaining 'Mechs of the PPG with him. Without alternatives, Nobu decided to escape. However, he and Deschanes didn't go very far: in a secret hangar where she had kept a shuttle hidden, Zahara Khaled, intelligence officer for the Pact, awaited them and knocked out both unconscious, arresting them for treason.[4]
