Caeda Uld'drum

"Peace is a lie, there is only duty. Duty is what enables those that choose to take action and do what must be done in order to ensure the rebirth of a civilization that has been corrupted by the ides of peace."

- Caeda Uld'drum, upon taking command of the Five Fleets from the Alliance.

Caeda Uld'drum, also known as the Judicator was an ancient Reteran that fought in the Gemini Wars as a commander of the fleet and rose to command the Gemini military after Soro and lead his people to a standstill victory. After the Empire had all but collapsed, Caeda opposed the new government that took power and was sealed away after a failed military coup. He would be sealed away for thousands of years until the end of the Cerberus Galactic Conflict, with the destruction of Corvana destabilizing the Reteran balance of power.

Fearful of a potential Cybros invasion of Cerberus, the Council of Elders brought Caeda out of stasis and had him reinstated as Supreme Commander of the Gemini Defense Fleet. This was a disastrous idea
