Word of Blake denies this allegation. − ===ComStar Service=== − Joining ComStar in her youth, the devoted and fanatical Aziz steadily rose up the ranks, ultimately selected by [[Primus of ComStar|Primus]] [[Myndo Waterly]] for the important post of [[Precentor]] [[Atreus (FWL)|Atreus]], placing her in control of all the [[HPG]] stations in the [[Free Worlds League]] and earning her a seat on the [[First Circuit]]. Aziz would prove to be one of Waterly's most ardent supporters on that body, a prominent member of the Primus' cabal.<ref name=ER3062-81/> − − Following [[Precentor Martial of ComStar|Precentor Martial]] [[Anastasius Focht]]'s removal of Myndo Waterly in favor of [[Sharilar Mori]], Aziz refused to acknowledge Focht's claims of discovering the true journal of [[Jerome Blake]] to justify his call for the [[ComStar Schism|secularization of ComStar]]. Though the remaining members of the First Circuit accepted Focht's new direction, Aziz defiantly refused. − − ===Word of Blake=== − Fleeing Terra with her own personal staff, Aziz traveled to Atreus to meet with [[Captain-General of the Free Worlds League|Captain-General]] [[Thomas Marik]], convincing him that the organization he had once served was under attack from within, the Captain-General agreeing to offer sanctuary in the Free Worlds League for herself and any other members of ComStar that shared her beliefs. Aziz then used [[ROM]] agents loyal to her to send messages to every HPG station across the [[Inner Sphere]] inviting all members who rejected ComStar's new secular direction in favor of the old, to join her in exile in the League.<ref name=ER3062-81/><ref name=CS-90>''ComStar'', p. 90: "Word of Blake - The Renegades"</ref> − − Her message turning the trickle of refugees into a worryingly large flood, the Captain-General organized a meeting with each of the defecting Precentors (who essentially each led an individual faction of the Word of Blake) to determine the best course of action. Despite Aziz's role in founding the Word of Blake, thanks to his friendship with the Captain-General and his more moderate style of leadership, [[William Blane]] gained Thomas Marik's open support and thus became the Word of Blake's ad hoc leader and spokesman. Though infuriated that her position as a former member of the First Circuit and initial founder of the Word was usurped by Blane, Aziz could do little but seethe behind a barely civil exterior and bide her time, remaining leader of what would become the radical Toyama Sect.<ref name=ER3062-81/><ref name=CS-91>''ComStar'', p. 91: "Word of Blake - The Marik Alliance"</ref><ref name=CS-93>''ComStar'', p. 93: "Word of Blake - Organization - Splinter Groups"</ref> − − Embittered at her reduced stature within the Word and convinced that her personal defiance of Mori and Focht alone created the splinter group, as the Word of Blake settled on [[Gibson]], Aziz would frequently defy Blane's call for limited use of force. At her direction, the Toyama sect and its ultraradical [[Sixth of June]] faction financed opposition to the [[Com Guards]] as well as launching assassination attempts of major ComStar Precentors on Terra and across the Inner Sphere. Aziz's increasing militancy would also sour her long-standing friendship and romantic relationship with the Blakists' [[Precentor ROM]] [[Alexander Kernoff]], as Blane and the other factions looked to exclude her and the Toyama's from the planning for [[Operation Odysseus]].<ref name=ER3062-81/><ref name=CS-97>''ComStar'', p. 97: "Word of Blake - Word of Blake Personalities - Precentor Demona Aziz - Precentor ROM Alexander Kernoff"</ref><ref name=ER3062-82>''Era Report: 3062'', p. 82: "Major Personas - Word of Blake - Alexander Kernoff</ref> − − Relegated to focusing on the Word's [[Periphery]] operations, Aziz and her protégé [[Cameron St. Jamais]], would head up a Sixth of June plan to foment conflict between the [[Marian Hegemony]] and the [[Magistracy of Canopus]], intending to bring about a Blakist prophecy foretelling of a Periphery superstate by forcing a merger between a weakened Magistracy and the [[Taurian Concordat]]. Unfortunately, thanks to evidence uncovered by the [[Avanti's Angels]] [[mercenary unit]], the Magistracy and [[Capellan Confederation]] were able to track back the Blakist involvement to Aziz's operational base on [[Campoleone]].<ref name=ER3062-81/><ref name=ER3062-17>''Era Report: 3062'', p. 17: "The Pirates War"</ref><ref name=ER3062-43>''Era Report: 3062'', p. 43: "Factions - Magistracy of Canopus"</ref> − − ===Death and Legacy=== − Demona Aziz was captured in a commando raid by the Capellans' feared [[Death Commandos]], before she was personally executed by [[Chancellor]] [[Sun-Tzu Liao]].<ref name=ER3062-17/><ref name=ER3062-43/> − − While largely considered the birth mother of the Word of Blake, Aziz's motivations for doing so are unknown, observers unsure if she simply saw creating it as the best way to retain power in the face of a sure to be hostile Focht and Mori or if she truly believed every word and rant she made in public.<ref name=ER3062-81/> − − ==Titles and Positions== − {{s-start}} − {{s-bef|before= Likely [[Pedrigor Aliz]]}} − {{s-title|title= [[Precentor]] [[Atreus (FWL)|Atreus]]|years= 30??-30??}} − {{s-aft|after= ????}} − {{s-end}} − − ==Quotes== − {{Quote|''The lies of Focht's ComStar have gone unanswered long enough.
