== Historical review ==
Rushd, before joining Morsus Mihi, was a member of Tread alliance. Due to internal struggles in Tread Alliance, Rushd left and went back 2 times to Tread Alliance. The 3rd time he left, it was to join with 4S Corporation (Morsus Mihi). Here Rushd resided for a couple of months, doing mainly research and maintaining security over a cluster of systems that were put under his responsibility.
When taking a leave of absence from activity Rushd left Morsus Mihi and formed Dawn of Makkah, being the sole active corporation in the alliance Society of Hejaz. This alliance was mainly formed because of security reasons, in order to make it expensive for other corporations to send Dawn of Makkah a war declaration, as Dawn of Makkah resided in the high security system of Ziona (Domain region). In this period of time Rushd limited himself to doing large scale trading in moon minerals and research of blueprints.
After reaching the set goals for blueprint research and gaining more time for other activity, Rushd decided to move back to Tread Alliance, after a chat with Tread's leader Ilie. Tread took Rushd's newly formed corporation Raw Fusion in, knowing that with Rushd as an active CEO of a PVP corporation, this would mean a valuable asset to Tread's PVP wing.
After rejoining TREAD Alliance, Rushd was surprised to find the lack of will amongst the majority of the TREAD pilots, to do pvp in order to gain the status of 'sov holder' in the Providence region, where TREAD resides as a pet of Curatores Veritatis Alliance. Rushd found out that CVA granted smaller alliances (I-Red and F-Con) sovereignity, while knowing that TREAD had built up a reputation as a defender of the Northern Providence area and being leading as such. The reason for CVA to lack a trust in TREAD holding its own in the Providence region was because of the apathic attitude of TREAD leadership to actually accept the responsibility of own sovereignity.
After this deception a revolution within Rushd's corp Raw Fusion, which held a strong pvp minded group of pilots, almost occurred. The majority of the Raw Fusion-pilots was dissappointed in the apathic mentality they found within TREAD alliance. The more experienced pilots pushed for a democratic discussion weither Raw Fusion should stay in TREAD Alliance or leave to pursue the corporation's ambitions. Rushd allowed the corporation to vote on this matter, while granting each member a full say in the matter. With 60% for and 40% against, the difference in opinion was too big. Rushd decided to cut Raw Fusion from TREAD Alliance and allow each pilot to decide for his or her own weither to stay with Raw Fusion or leave to seek other goals.
Aside from a handfull the majority decided to stay within Raw Fusion, although the pilots that did leave stayed within influence as they joined with Rushd's research corporation, Dawn of Makkah. After this reorganisation Rushd turned over daily control to the group of directors. The shares in both corporations stayed in Rushd's hands, while the directors pay Rushd a monthly fee to exploit the activity that Rushd had set up within both corporations. Secured of this income Rushd decided to head back to Tribute and rejoin his friends in 4S Corporation. Rushd's corporations Raw Fusion and Dawn of Makkah continue within the Kor-Azor and Domain regions, acting independent, although talks are going with the Chain of Chaos alliance, to take up Raw Fusion as an additional PVP wing.
Dawn of Makkah remains its base in the Ziona system, exploiting the moons in the so-called Milal-pocket and the Jeni and Khabara systems.
While being a prominent scientist within Morsus Mihi, Rushd also fulfills the roles of Starbase Officer and Dread Officer. Next to that Rushd is an official fleet commander for the Morsus Mihi support fleets.
Rushd's new ambitions are to invest his income from Raw Fusion and Dawn of Makkah into capital ships, while Morsus Mihi also gains profit from his knowledge of cost-effective mass production of ships and ammo on a larger scale. Next to that Rushd continues to seek effective invention techniques to cut down the cost of losses of Tech II ships that Morsus Mihi endoures in their campaigns in the South and against [quote]"the failure that is called Triumvirate"[end quote]. After ongoing fights in Pure Blind, eventually Triumvirate disbanded, with Rushd being one of the crucial factors in the supply lines to forces deployed by the Northern Coalition to draw back Triumvirate.
Within weeks after Triumvirate's surrender and disbanding their alliance, the Northern Coalition was facing new threats coming from the South. This time it was the Geminate region that came under fire by Atlas alliance, alongside the minor Russian block consisting of Solar Wing and Red.Overlord. While the Geminate region - held by NC-partner Wildly Inappropriate - went lost to the Russians, another southern threat came up to challenge the northern parts of New Eden. With IT Alliance being the main driving force, a southern coalition of IT, AAA and several of their pets are pushing their efforts towards the Tribute, Vale of The Silent and Tenal regions. Although official reports speak of the vast number of technetium holding moons being the main reason, insiders say IT is still hungering to make up for their losses in the last siege in Tribute, when the Northern Coalition chased away Band of Brothers (a former alliance which consisted mainly of IT-members; see Morsus Mihi history for details).
During the preparations for this new Great War in the North, Rushd was keeping track of other efforts in the south. Ushra'Khan being active in the Providence region, chipping away from CVA's holding of regional control, threats seemed to come close to areas where Rushd is still holding control on moon mining activity through his corporations Dawn of Makkah and Raw Fusion near Providence and Domain regions. While being inactive after the battle for Pure Blind, Rushd once again limited himself to research while the southern threats came to life. With Rushd's attention now being divided between his personal interests in the south and the interests of his alliance in the north, new challenges were awaiting to be conquered.
To be continued.
