Criminal File: The Dude (5736-A7-32)
Also Known As: Teh Dude, Dah Dude, King of the New Knightâs Kingdom
Criminal History:
The Dude has a long criminal record which begins with enticing an uprising or Paradox rogues. A nexus Force Warrent was filed for his arrest, and he was detained. He managed to escape custody, and during his escaped he assaulted multiple nexus force members with the aid of his sidekick Barney, who was also being imprisoned for aiding The Dude in his crimes. He fled to the Knightâs Kingdom land of Morcia more, a land in which outside of our jurisdiction. Despite having no legal authority in the land, a small squad of elite minfigures was sent to detain The Dude. We greatly underestimated The Dude's power and the size of his army, and the ship transporting the squad was shot down. Five Nexus Force members were confirmed to be smashed at the hands of The Dude; five remain uncounted for.
A group of knights in Morcia, calling themselves The Knights of the Old Speech, made it their mission to apprehend The Dude. Some of their members had a duel citizenship for both he Nexus Force and the Knightâs Kingdom, and they supplied us with much information concerning The Dude's whereabouts. Regardless, we hesitant to spare any resources to fight The Dude dirrectly, as our resources were already taxed by our battle with the Maelstrom. Rather than invest the resources to wage full out war against The Dude, we assigning a blockade around Morcia to limit his expansion. The Knights of the Old Speech (or KOTOS) made considerable headway fighting against The Dude, until the battle of Elepharia marked the disbanding of KOTOS. By attacking and annihilating the Elephanters, a neutral tribe, as well as smashing SkilledHonoredNinja and BoingBoing (AKA: Ninjago Builders and Ninja of Lava) two nexus force citizens, we were forced to take action. We sent in multiple attack teams to apprehend The Dude, but they were smashed, and we decided that, give the strength of The Dude, the safest course of action was the same as before: avoid direct conflict with The Dude while limiting his expansion with the blockade around the planet of the Knightâs Kingdom. The blockade has proved to be somewhat ineffectual, however, as there have been reports that some The Dudeâs forces have managed to bypass the blockade. It is become more and more apparent that the blockade is not keeping The Dude in; it is the Dude keeping the blockade out.
Known Associates:
Barney, Vladek, Paradox Rogues, Red Mythrans, the Morcia Wizard Council
Weapons:
The Dude welded the Grammar Sword and controlled a full set of dark mythran powers granted by the sword. To our knowledge, he currently is not in possession of the sword, however.
Status:
The Dude is currently at large on the planet of the Knightâs Kingdom. He has been declared a public enemy and a reward has been set for his capture. As of yet, none of the bounty hunters who volunteered to arrest him have returned alive (none of them have returned at all, actually, alive or otherwise). Despite his status as a criminal, there are some minifigures who insist that The Dude is innocent of all charges and the KOTOS are to blame for his alleged crimes. The majority of minifigures do not believe these rumors (which were probably spread by The Dude and his minions) but the number of the Dudeâs supporters is steadily growing, even within the nexus force.
