25 years before the fall of beacon.
A 24 year old brute warrior knelt in font of one of Ozpins reincarnations. This brute was known as Atriox. He use to follow Ozpin with his pack but they were used as expendable muscle against Salem. Forty at a time he carelessly sent them in. Forty to break into the land of Darkness... Forty to die for beliefs not their own... And none ever returned... until he did.
And so battle by battle... Thirty nine brothers at a time... Atriox was born... With every victory his legend and his hatred of Ozpin grew. Eventually both were impossible to concele.
Atriox is threw his gravity hammer at Ozpins feet and fell to his knees. Ozpin brought out an ancient artifact. One that belonged to an elite. A red energy sword.
And Ozpin tried to banish him. But Atriox did something many others couldn't. He resisted... And survived.
Atriox grabbed Ozpins blade by its handle and grabbed Ozpin by his throat and broke his neck as his other followers were killed by Atriox's Brutes.
Atriox then would head into the land of Darkness alone where the grimm or those who enhabbited it such as the sangheli, Ungoy, Kigyar and Leckgolo would not attack him. But allow him to make his way to Salem where he struck a deal. He started an army as long as her grimm did not attack his men.
He would raid Atlas supply cashes and resource transports which would allow him to build a fleet like no-one has ever seen which still remains hidden to this day.
