Born in [[7]] [[AD]], Cunovellasus was among the [[prince]]s of a northern Briton tribes who were contacted by [[the War Chief (The Legions of Death)|the War Chief]] via holographic [[Sontaran]] [[recon drone]]s ([[GAME]]: {{cite source|The Legions of Death (game)|namedpart=Non-Player Characters}}) as part of his plot to derail the conquest of Britain, abduct [[Emperor of Rome|Emperor]] [[Claudius]], and take control of the [[Roman Empire]]. Presenting himself as a "war god" who dwelled in the [[Sacred Wood]] between [[Londinium]] and [[Camulodunum]], he recruited these leaders into a [[cult]] of the "[[Inner Mysteries]]" and drove them to amass into a second army that would take Claudius's legions by surprise after their historically-established victory over [[Cattigern]] and [[Caractacus]]. ([[GAME]]: {{cite source|The Legions of Death (game)|namedpart=The War Chief}}) Cunovellasus was, by then, betrothed to [[Branimandua's sister|the sister]] of [[Princess]] [[Branimandua]], who learned of the crusade as a result and decided to join in despite not having initially been contacted herself. | Born in [[7]] [[AD]], Cunovellasus was among the [[prince]]s of a northern Briton tribes who were contacted by [[the War Chief (The Legions of Death)|the War Chief]] via holographic [[Sontaran]] [[recon drone]]s ([[GAME]]: {{cite source|The Legions of Death (game)|namedpart=Non-Player Characters}}) as part of his plot to derail the conquest of Britain, abduct [[Emperor of Rome|Emperor]] [[Claudius]], and take control of the [[Roman Empire]].

Earnestly believing that he had been called by the gods, Cunovellasus arrived in the Sacred Wood and was initiated into the Mysteries, i.e. taken down into the depths of [[the War Chief's TARDIS]] and brainwashed using the [[processing machine]]s. However, even after his faith in the War Chief was made ontologically unshakable, he retained some of his careful spirit and common sense, and sometimes questioned orders; because of this, the War Chief dismissed him as leader of the coalition in favour of the more fanatical [[Calagundus]]. The changes in her brother-in-law-to-be's behaviour, however, were still enough to concern the non-brainwashed Branimandua, planting the seeds of doubt within her regarding the benevolence of the War Chief.

If [[Mikhyl Nevenskoi]] was among them, Cunovellasus was the one to interrogate him. Later, when Branimandua began to speak out against the War Chief, Cunovellasus acknowledged that she was making good points until she began to describe what she had seen in the Sacred Wood, which contradicted Cunovellasus's own tampered-with memories, leading him to dismiss her words as "nonsense".
