Dead Sea is a decanus of Caesar's Legion leading Camp Nelson in 2281.
Background
Plucked as a baby from the shores of the Great Salt Lake by Caesar, Dead Sea became legionary from birth and rose to the rank of decanus in 2276. Sometime later, in recognition of his contribution to the victory over the Sun Dogs tribe, his centurion gifted him a machete called the Liberator.
In 2281, the NCR decided that the small town of Nelson would make a suitable base as it could close the hole in the NCR's defenses between Camp Forlorn Hope and Camp Searchlight. Seeing an opportunity to strike before the NCR had a chance to secure Nelson, Caesar sent Dead Sea with two contubernia of legionaries to take the town. After Nelson was taken, Caesar instructed Dead Sea to hold it, as its close proximity to Camp Forlorn Hope was a constant reminder to NCR forces of their failure to protect the town. Dead Sea carried out this order with total confidence in Caesar's wisdom, sending out men to harass NCR patrols and Camp Forlorn Hope. Dead Sea showed no mercy to his enemies; NCR soldiers who fell into his hands were executed or crucified.
