Khan Iskandar

**Cade Iskandar** (born 29 June 2299 – 4 March 2366 IK [12 July 289 – 17 March 356 RE]) was the tritagonist of the *Code Breaker* series. He was the Ameer and the son of Khalid Capil Iskandar of the Ma-I Ophir, the strongest and largest terrorist group throughout the world even before the Great Expansion of the Eurasian Empire. He grew up completely harnessed to one day be the Khalid, and was privileged to countless of money that was all due to sponsors, ransoms, and illegal business, particularly their secretly investment with the Ravien drug. Before the invasion of the Philippines by the Eurasian Empire, his father had made it a point to gain the independence of the southern region of the Philippines and convert the Island of Mindanao to be their own country with the start of their new Islamic Empire. Though small of a resistance group at first, they were seen to be a large threat; and when the Eurasian Empire successfully conquered the Philippines, they turned themselves to be the one who'll free the country from the Empire.
