Summary
Hailing from the Vior'la Sept, Anu'shi is one of the Ethereal T'aus. He gained the statue of a war hero near his 40s, an age when he could have already retired. Instead during his visit of Kel'tyr, the colonies were attacked by Ork, with the Ork's leader murdering the Fire Cast leader, and making Anu'shi take command. Anu'shi sliced the Ork warboss in half, and led his forces to many victories, stalling for enough time until T'au reinforcements rescued him and his remaining soldiers.
