The Exodite / int_16dd0b72	type	Make Sure He's Dead
The Exodite / int_16dd0b72	comment	Make Sure He's Dead: Several Krieg guardsmen bayonet the bodies of T'au fire warriors to ensure they are dead. One of the fire warriors was shown to still be alive before being impaled in the gut. Lako'ma's stealth team fails to do the same when they kill the guardsmen in turn, and it gets one of them killed.

In the following episode, a Phantom Titan armed with an "Ashuna-Valcry'le" (a power sword upscaled for anti-Titan combat) cuts a Warlord Titan clean in half at the "knee", causing it to come crashing down.

The third episode reveals that it is capable of stunning it's target, as Lako'ma throws it at Kelseth once Doro'm holds him in place. It becomes subverted when Kelseth manoeuvres Doro'm in front of him, thus stunning Doro'm instead.

One charges an Imperial Warhound, and then slides on its knees beneath the Warhound's line of fire to cut the Imperial Titan's legs off.

The Exodite / int_3d699462	comment	Curb-Stomp Battle: A cadre of Crisis Battlesuits attempt to take on a Warlord Battle Titan after its void shields are down. Not only are their attacks ineffective, but a second Warlord Titan appears and proceeds to completely annihilate them. The Stealth Suit squad annihilate a small party of Krieg troopers, shearing their Chimera transport in half with plasma fire and then save one wiping the squad out. This is apparently the entire point of Mont'ka — an overwhelming surprise attack that does maximum damage. However the squad are themselves no match for Kelseth in their first skirmish. Using an Aeldari sniper rifle and then a kind of Exodite spear, he takes out a drone and three squadmates and wounds Doro'm in the leg without them landing any successful hits in retaliation.

However, his people are still dead and his once beautiful world is a fiery ruin, and it is suggested that he sought death after his goals were completed before the Shadowseer who rescued him offers him to join his troupe as a Death Jester.

Kelseth manages to achieve his vengeance over his ruined world by summoning an Asuryani Warhost to engage the forces of the Imperium and the T'au, which will leave the latter two defeated and bloodied. Lako'ma is unable to avenge her fallen comrades as Kelseth is saved by the Harlequins and ends up stranded in Commorragh, doomed to an uncertain fate.

He demonstrates considerable prowess with a variety of weaponry ranging from sniper rifles and shuriken catapultsnote In this setting, the Aeldari use guns that fire bursts of plasti-crystal ninja stars at lethal velocities using a gravatic accelerator; they are similar in killing power to Space Marine bolters to simple spears and blades.

The most advanced weapon he uses in his battle against Lako'ma's warriors (who are all armed with cloaking technology, plasma weaponry and autonomous drones) is an Aeldari sniper rifle; he uses a spear and knives for many of his kills. But these are likely monomolecular or even power-blades; the Exodites actually use highly advanced technology compared to the Imperium and the T'au, verging into Magitek, even if it is deliberately very limited by Aeldari standards. Played entirely straight however by the nameless Krieg Guardsman who, thought killed in the squad's ambush, suddenly surprises one of Lako'ma's squad and beats him to death with a trench club.

However, when Kelseth kills Doro'm and summons an Aeldari Warhost (with one of their Titans blasting a transport that kills her commanding officer) Lako'ma flies to a rage and tackles Kelseth with the intent to kill him. However, the scuffle causes them to fall into the Webway Gate. When it is discovered that Lako'ma is lost in the Drukhari city of Commorragh, a Harlequin Death Jester appears and can't help but be amused by the fact that her attempt for revenge has caused her to be stranded in one of the worst places to be in the entire galaxy.
