Kamal Re'x the Abductor

"I deemed the chance to destroy Novus once and for all, a chance worth taking!".

"Or was it a chance for you to impress the Overseers? How many have to die for you ambition Khamal?".

-Khamal and Orlok.

General

Kamal Re'x is the controller of the Earth operation for the Hierarchy. He has eliminated those who have stood in his way during his rise in the ranks of the Hierarchy. He can control psionic energies and the machine worn on his head further amplifies that. He has taken a big risk by ignoring the usual planetary procedures of the Hierarchy in order to lure Novus to Earth. He is ruthless when concerned with increasing his rank within the Hierarchy, possessing ambitions of becoming its ruler which he doesn't hide, and as such often argues with Orlok about the cost of victory. While Orlok values the lives of the soldiers of the Hierarchy, Kamal views their only reason for existing to expansion of the Hierarchy, and therefore deems them expendable. He has an even lower view races wiped out by the Hierarchy, believing that if they couldn't prevent their own extinction they didn't deserve to live in the first place. He in fact takes pride in the destruction he has caused.

He's handed his final defeat at the end of the game

Kamal Re'x the Abductor

Kamal Re'x is the Support hero of the Hierarchy, unlocked by the Quantum Branch. He fires psionic waves at ground targets that damage all ground units in their path and can knock back units. He also knocks back aircraft with psionic blasts. His psionic attacks are strong against infantry, heroes, light vehicles, and Masari Dark Matter Armor. Kamal is fast, but not very well armored.
