When saKhan Dembe N'Buta learned of the invaders, he issued a challenge to the Mongoose commander, bidding himself and six of his warriors to defend the colony.  They would face each other in a moraine outside of the city of Karnak. In a deadly game of cat-and-mouse, saKhan N'Buta and his elite force would swiftly carve the Mongoose attackers down to a single star of functioning 'Mechs after little more than an hour of fighting.  When the Mongoose warriors attempted to escape off-world, N'Buta and his warriors pursued.  N'Buta would take aim at their [[Dropship]] as it lifted off, firing his ''[[Thug]]''&#39;s twin [[PPC]]s and hitting a landing strut, causing the ship to crash back to the ground.  After salvage efforts and extensive repairs to the Dropship, N'Buta would commission it for use as the lead Dropship of the Quasar Keshik, renaming it the ''Karnak Crusader''.<ref name=FM:CCp111,112/>

His victories against Clan Mongoose would become legendary in his Clan, earning him the hatred of the Mongooses. As one of the earliest [[Bloodname]]d N'Buta warriors, saKhan Dembe N'Buta's genetic heritage would help to sire many generations of outstanding MechWarriors who often rise to the very top of leadership, not only in the Star Adders, but the [[Clan Cloud Cobra|Cloud Cobras]] as well - and in particular, the political powerhouse, [[Cloister#Great_Cloisters|Tongo Cloister]].<ref>''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', p. 25 - "The Cloisters, Tongo"</ref>
