In the 12th century the Qolat informed about the immortal Old Man of the Mountain. When they tried to approach him, the leader of the Assassins of Medinaat al-Salaam dismissed them. The Qolat discovered the Old Man was Hassan al-Alamut, the Prince, the Sultan's son who had been borne in the 9th century. They infiltrated his organization and in 1112 planted Haroun as a son of the Old Man. The infant grew up and was later recruited, becoming the Blood Red Tiger Master. Master Tiger told him the truth.

== Age of Conquest ==
For more than a generation, the Kolat had been believed dead by the Empire as Master Coin desired. In the late 12th century the Kolat were ready to expand their operations once more. Masters Coin and Master Tiger, tentative allies for decades, had chosen to fill one of the vacant positions, a new Master Roq to assume control of the Kolat's operations within the Colonies, ensuring the balance of power remained. 2013 GenCon Update: Invitational and Special Tournament Events (The Kolat Master) Master Tiger considered the appointment of Yasuki Makoto as Imperial Advisor as one of their greatest victory.
