History

-...

O'Shaserra is a dynamic leader who rose to recent fame in the battles of the K'resh Expansion. There, she smashed the Horde menace, and her cadres suffered historically low casualties in return. All of Shadowsun's victories are marked by unrivalled efficiency, a trait not surprising from one of Commander Puretide's most promising pupils. Over seven years ago, O'Shaserra was a brilliant young warrior; her successes and matchless performances at the Fire Caste academies earned her recognition as one of the ablest military minds in the T'au Empire. As such, she was granted the honor of studying personally under the ailing but legendary Commander Puretide. Despite being the youngest of all Puretide's proteges, O'Shaserra scored exceptionally well in all simulations, outstripping all others, save one -- the most highly favored of all Puretide's students, Commander O'Shovah (Farsight). From the start, theirs was a bitter rivalry, as the two most gifted Tau Commanders in the Empire strove to gain their wizened master's approval.

During the battle on the Dal'yth Sept city, where the Coalitions Damocles Gulf Crusade was finally halted, it was Commander Farsight's audacious counterattacks that drew the most attention; however, they would never have been possible without O'Shaserra's patient ploy to draw out and overextend the Coalition battle lines, her most famous battle being what is now called the Great War of Confederation. In order to halt the advances of the Blood Ravens, she led a Stealth Cadre straight into the heart of the Blood Raven encampment to deliver a killing stroke. Timing her strike to coincide with an artificial eclipse, the Tau forces used the Jetpacks of their XV25 Stealthsuits to deploy from low-swooping Orca dropships.

Under the cover of the unnatural darkness, the Astartes never knew what hit them. In an instant, their leaders were riddled by Burst Cannons before being finished off with searing shots from Fusion Blasters. It was O'Shaserra herself who personally sought out and targeted the commander, Indrick Boreale, and brought him down with precision fire. As the company was recovering from the surprise and confusion, the rest of O'Shaserra's cadres joined the fray. Without their commanders to lead them, most of the Astartes were either cut down or forced to retreat, only to run into well-placed ambushes. By the time the sunlight burnt through the obscuring veil, the battle was over and a new Fire Caste legend was born. Her deed that day earning her name Shadowsun. And while the Tau would have lost in the end, leading to them being forced to work for the Lumeris, it was thanks to Shadowsun that many of their cultural structures had remained intact and freeof the Syndicate's influence, even if she did have to join the Syndicate black ops in exchange for them leaving the captial of the Tau untouched. And in comparison to her rival Farsight she is willing to wait, either for the Tau to gain enough funds to pay off their debt or the Syndicate to be weaken enough for a successful rebellion.

PS: Any information about her having an intimate relationship with the S'jet's Custodes Longinus, better known as Kitten, is considered nothing but slanderous rumors.
