abstract
  • The Eagle was given to the 12th Legion by Jupiter, who imbued it with massive power. It was first lost during the Jewish rebellion (approximately 70 A.D.) and its loss was a massive disgrace. Fortunately, it was recovered later on. Later, the Eagle was lost a second time in the 1980s when the senior Praetor of the Twelfth at the time, Michael Varus of the Fifth Cohort, ignored the advice of his augur and lead an expedition into Alaska, thinking to complete the Prophecy of Seven. He lead the Fifth Cohort to Alaska where they encountered Alcyoneus. The resulting conflict ended with the virtual destruction of the Cohort and Alcyoneus seizing the Eagle. At some point he placed the Eagle on the Hubbard Glacier to be guarded by the undead legionnaires there. Due to this loss the Fifth Cohort was disgraced and became the unpopular Cohort of the Legion. The Fifth Cohort was also said to have bad luck tied in with the loss of the Eagle.
