Long before the coup, [[Emperor Calus|Calus]] was crowned [[Cabal Emperor|Emperor]] of the [[Cabal]]. Early on in his reign, Calus instigated a purge of the [[Praetorate]], the military aristocracy that controlled the Cabal Legions. Calus viewed the Praetorate as corrupt, abusing its power for its own enrichment at the expense of both the Empire's citizens and the Legions. Although Calus's purge was by and large successful, some members of the Praetorate survived. One member in particular, the [[Consul]], began to plot his revenge and found what he believed was the perfect vessel for it: an orphan named [[Dominus Ghaul|Ghaul]]. The Consul raised Ghaul into a powerful warlord, hoping to use him as a figurehead in the overthrow of Calus. At the same time, many of Calus's own allies became disenchanted with their Emperor, equating his decadence with folly and weakness. | Long before the coup, [[Emperor Calus|Calus]] was crowned [[Cabal Emperor|Emperor]] of the [[Cabal]].
