Convergence: WBR Wedge

Background

The {w} {b} {r} wedge is a military machine. It recognizes the power of intimidation and of shows of strength, but doesn't hesitate to slaughter any who stand in its way. Its only goal is domination of other planes for power's sake. Mechanically, it's represented by flanking, which represents the military training of its units. Its seal is a pair of crossed broadswords.

Direkon, the Dark Liege

Originally from Bant, he was a respected member of the sigiled cast. Direkon grew bored of the meaningless, ceremony-like battles that Bant knights participated in. He took advantage of the Conflux to explore the rest of Alara, where he learned many new ways to fight and kill. He was eventually defeated on Jund by a brood of dragons. His sparked flared at the last moment and he retreated through the Blind Eternities.

Direkon traveled throughout the Multiverse, learning methods of warfare unique to each plane and recruiting powerful warriors for his army. His personal view of the world changed into one more of self-advancement than of helping the downtrodden. When he discovered Valkri, Direkon realized that this might be the plane from which he begins his conquest of the Multiverse.
