Ligress Defeats Requiem

This afternoon Ligress, formerly of Elite Force, arrested Requiem of the Council. Requiem, formerly Ridolfo Uzzano, has come a long way from his humble beginning as one of Mussolini's lapdogs. The primary cause of his success was his fusion with a Nictus, a being of utter darkness. The Nictus gave Ridolfo the ability to scorch his foes with an infernal fire. Though he is now over 100 years old, Requiem remains a fearsome foe in battle. Requiem ruled over the massive military organization the 5th Column which was subsumed by the Council. His closest attendents suspect that Requiem is still smarting from his loss of power, and plotting his revenge.
