Clan Nova Cat: Visions, Sacrifice, and Rebirth

Clan Nova Cat combined warrior culture with a distinctive mystical tradition built around visions, meditation, sacrifice, and interpretation. This episode traces that tradition from founders Phillip Drummond and Sandra Rosse through the Rite of the Vision and the role of the Oathmaster. Nova Cat spirituality did not provide simple predictions of the future; visions required interpretation, and those interpretations could inspire either remarkable insight or disastrous confidence. The Clan entered Operation REVIVAL as a Crusader but eventually concluded that the invasion was wrong, sided with the reborn Star League, and accepted Abjuration from the Homeworlds. It rebuilt within the Draconis Combine, only to face another catastrophic political break generations later. The destruction of Nova Cat power on Irece in 3142 scattered survivors into several communities rather than erasing the people entirely. Throughout its history, the Nova Cats repeatedly changed political form while preserving pieces of their spiritual identity, making sacrifice and reinvention central to what survival meant.
