Character Brief

Before becoming Prince, he served as Aerospace Pilot for the First Regulan Hussars and fought in Andurien War.[1]

As Prince of Regulus

Taking the Office Principlity of Regulus, Kirc Cameron-Jones resurrected the title "Prince" which was once used by Selaj noble family which his own clan replaced.[2]

In public has been staunch opponent of Captain-General Thomas Marik during his reign. Many of Captain-General Marik's military reforms which his Regulus Hussars have not favored, have been slowed down or not been implimented.[5] Kirc had cited that cultural precedent that Hussar would not change some of its ways. However, due to Kirc going along with the Military Reformation Act, Regulan Hussars have suffered from low priority for supplies.[6]

The Jihad and the Spiral downfall as Prince

In 7th of August 3069, Kirc made a League wide address denouncing Captain-General Thomas Marik. Since it being now revealed that standing Captain-General is not a true Marik, Kirc sees this as opponunity to finally grab power for himself. Reviewing "false" Thomas Marik efforts to try convice the League Parliament to make his post permenant. He makes this address to the League, that he enacts the provisions of the Act of Succession document, which begins process of succession. In accordence to the act it gives the right for the Marik family to choose successor. By them backing the "false" Thomas Marik, they forfeit right to chose. Since next candidate for Captain-Generalcy is the false Marik's father-inlaw Duke Christopher Halas, he's suspect due his association. Thus Kirc says Halas is invalid as well. So he delare himself the only rightful ruler of the Free Worlds League. Using the powers of the Act of Succssion, all federal authority, is transfered to post of Prince of Regulus. Thus claiming becoming Captain-General of the Free Worlds League. In his his first act, in the address he cites Thomas Marik is order arrested should he try to give orders to federal authorities or any party agreeing take orders.[8]

However days later, Peter Marik, announces from Atreus that his daughter, Corinne Marik has been installed Captain-General.[9]
