Capitán Greven il-Vec

Commander Greven il-Vec was the man in command of the skyship Predator and the armies of Rath. To fulfil this role, he had received various Phyrexian enhancements to his muscle mass and fighting skills, making him one of the deadliest warriors of Rath. However, much to his chagrin, he was also fitted with a mimetic spine that the evincar Volrath used to control and punish the warrior. This demeaning left him extremely bitter and resentful, which he then took out on his soldiers. This, combined with his being an exacting taskmaster who was more than willing to execute weak or insubordinate soldiers, made him unpopular with his men.

Greven had once been a member of the human Vec tribe, but like many others he was drawn to the potential power and status offered by the Stronghold. Greven turned his back on his people and joined their oppressors, becoming il-Vec, a dishonored outcast. In the Stronghold, Greven quickly rose through the ranks due to his efficiency and deadliness, eventually being given command of the Stronghold's flagship, Predator. Greven put the vessel to good use, suppressing rebel encampments and routinely bombarding Skyshroud in an effort to root out insurgents.
