Love, War, and the Creamy Filling

The WarOps Ministry

Do not put your faith in hope. Nor in love or war, for these are not clean, quantifiable things. No — Put your faith in the Ministry, for it is forever.

Ministry Dossier

A greatly reduced Dictatorship enjoys a quiet smoke.

Name: Dictator Nicholas I
Known Aliases: Irrelevant.

Presently in his 168th Incarnation, Nicholas was originally human-born shortly after the establishment of the WarOps Ministry. Rising early to great prominence, he quickly seized the reins of power within the Ministry. He ruled as the embodiment of the "Dictatorship" until a freak "accident" during a Ministry-Sponsored Weekend Fishing Festival left him drowned when his fishing line got caught around him, looping about 6 - 7 times and ending in a Gordian knot.

So grief-stricken were his people, that Ministry scientists performed a radical trephining operation and removed the Dictatorship's cerebral mass, so that his wisdom may be preserved for all posterity.

Unfortunately, when no agent would readily surrender himself as a vehicle for the brain, it was lobotomized, and a miniscule portion was crammed into a poor, indigenous squirrel's skull cavity. Although the figurehead lived, he did so with a profound loss of intelligence.
