Specter

Specter was a Terran Metahuman and Military Officer with the ability to manipulate the Ghost Dimension to his will. He was a Vice Admiral of the Sol Imperium and Solar Union and after his desertion, the Fleet Admiral of the Phantom Fleet.

Joining the TDO
Some time during the 1920s, Specter was drafted for the second generation Metahuman Projects elaborated by the Terran Defence Organization and acquired the ability to manipulate the undiscovered Ghost Dimension.

He was placed within Blackout's Metahuman Squad and served inside Unionis Invicta as an elite operative until the First Battle for Earth in 1926. During this battle, his squad leader would perish fighting the Qu.

The Frozen World
After the events of the Great Nuclear War and the First Strike, Specter and his squad were moved to Haig's forces in New Invicta to prepare for the nuclear winter.

He served amongst Director Winston Haig's subordinates and became a military advisor for the TDO high officer.

Decimation of Earth
During the rise of the Human Resistance and the reforming of the TDO, Specter served in the Uflarya front with Haig while the Secret Army battled in Grand City.

After the battle, he would escape with many other TDO personnel to Fox's Interregnum, settling in Hispania Base as a Colonel.

Centauri Threat
In 2 P.T., under the recommendation from Governor General Haig, Colonel Specter was placed under Commander Jäger's investigation team about the Ghost Dimension's leak into AI-26.

While not directly working in favor of the german, he was crucial in providing details about the dimension. In secret, he was a colaborator of the creature known as Quoy'Darh which was the catalyst of the crisis in Proxima Centauri. When Jäger squad were deployed with the Cosmos Man to seal the rift, he was the man responsible of controlling the cohort of spirits attacking the team and the Terran Starfleet deployed to protect the Aztec Starfleet.

When Quoy'Darh was eventually destroyed, Specter regained his own free will and vowed to never again use his powers against humanity. Given his efforts to help Commander Jäger and solve the Centauri incident, he was promoted to Sub-Director of the saharan Ghost Base, becoming the supervisor of further incursions into the Ghost Dimension.

The Great Anarchy
When Marshal Luigi Fox and Marshal Otto Laake formed the Sol Imperium and reorganized the Imperial Military, Specter resigned from his position as Sub-Director of the TDO and was promoted to Vice-Admiral in the Imperium Starfleet. With his new position in the armed forces, Specter would acquire his own ship, the ISS Wyvern, as well as a battlegroup of Aura-class Battleships.

When the Great Anarchy broke out in 9 P.T. Specter was horrified to see the outlawing of the Morites and the Novaterrans. Losing faith in his own government and military, Specter deserted the Imperium with his battlegroup and staged a failed attack against Dictator Laake in Mars, before being chased out of the Sol System by Admiral Karlsen's ships.

After this failed attempt at restoring the Imperium, Specter would befriend the N'varium Warlord of Vandala in the Separatist Side of the N'varium Civil War. During his time gathering mercenaries and N'varium personnel willing to put an end to the Sol Imperium, he would modify most of his fleet to be infused with the Ghost Dimension, thus, creating the powerful Phantom Fleet.

Specter would later join the uneasy truce of Human forces in the First League War. His fleet serving during the initial stages of the Battle of Sol, more specifically in the Ceres Front. Specter would retreat after the fall of Ceres, returning to Vandala.

Role in the Solar Union
After Marshal Laake was deposed by Senator Quisling's Conspiracy in 13 P.T., Specter would once again return to the solar governments. He was made a Vice Admiral and commanded the Novaterran Defense Fleet. A year later, Director Cameron of the IIA detected a rogue space station in the orbit of Novaterra. After a heated debate with the captain of the vessel, he moved the station against Kafka's protests.

The Auditor General of the Solar Union called Specter for a hearing requested by Starlink Inc., the owners of the intervened space station. Being certain that he was going to be court martialled, Specter deserted and once again returned to N'varium territory to hide. He was chased around the galaxy by the FIA and the TDO and would eventually surrender on his own terms to Colonel Ward. He was imprisoned on the high security facility on Mars until 24 P.T. when he was exiled by orders of First Executive Blair.

Exile
Specter went on a trip to the Far North to meet up with the remnants of the Warlord of Vandala's forces after the separatist side had lost the Civil War. Combining their forces, the Phantom Fleet was expanded for the next six years, acquiring a light dreadnought from the Illyrians. Specter would also gain more knowledge and control of his powers, making him almost a demigod.

Siege of Novaterra
In 30 P.T., the Phantom Fleet discovered that former Grand Marshal Otto Laake of the Imperium was organizing a coup against the Solar Union. Putting his hatred for Laake aside, he joined the conspiracy and his forces would participate in the Battle of Eden Base. When Laake was reinstated as Dictator Perpetuo, he decided to take revenge upon the germans in Novaterra for abandoning him when he was about to be court martialled in 14 P.T.

His dreadnought would destroy the Warpgun and chase away Unionis Invicta. Specter would then order a full bombardment of the planet. When Laake was eventually betrayed by Zeitprinz Leopold of the Unionsarmee, Specter would continue the bombardment until his forces fought against a sizeable TDO fleet led by Admiral Jäger.

Jäger, his squad and MUQ Lantern Sam Lohart would engage Specter in combat within his command room, Specter getting the upper hand against Sam and killing him. Jäger was also about to be defeated when a divine intervention cleared his tormented mind. Specter's physical form was destroyed by a power surge from Jäger and his spirit would forever be trapped within the Ghost Dimension.
