History WesternAnimation / TheExodite

* DownerEnding: [[spoiler:The efforts of the T'au are all in vain, as Lako'ma fails to capture Kelseth and de-escalate war. Kelseth manages to achieve his vengeance over his ruined world by summoning an Asuryani Warhost to engage the forces of the Imperium and the T'au, which will leave the latter two defeated and bloodied. Lako'ma is unable to avenge her fallen comrades as Kelseth is saved by the Harlequin's and ends up stranded in Commorragh, doomed to an uncertain fate.]]

* {{Irony}}: During her confrontation with Kelseth in Episode 3, Lako'ma insists that the T'au Empires does not stand for vengeance and hate. However, when Kelseth [[spoiler:kills Doro'm and summons an Aeldari Warhost (with one of their Titans blasting a transport that kills her commanding officer) Lako'ma flies to a rage and tackles Kelseth with the intent to kill him. However, the shuffle causes them to stumble into the Webway Gate. When it is discovered that Lako'ma is lost in the Drukhari city of Commaragh, a Harlequin Death Jester appears and can't help but be amused by the fact that her attempt for revenge has caused her to be stranded in one of the worst places to be in the entire galaxy.]]

* LastOfHisKind: Kelseth is apparently the last of the maiden world's Exodites.

The series is set in Eastern Fringe of the galaxy, where the forces of the Imperium of Man and the T'au empire battle upon the ruined husk of an Aeldari maiden world. The recently promoted Shas'vre, Lako'ma, is sent on a mission along with her stealth team to capture an Aeldari Exodite known as Kelseth, who is responsible for escalating the war by framing the T'au for the death's of the Imperium's commanders. Lako'ma and her team descend to the maiden world's purpose on the hunt for the exodite, unaware of the aeldari's plan for a greater vengeance upon the invaders.

* WretchedHive: [[spoiler: Lako'ma unfortunate finds herself straneded in the Dark City of Commorragh, the realm of the vile Drukhari.]]

* YouAreInCommandNow: The first episode has Lako'ma being promoted to Shas'vre of her stealth team after her previous commanding officer was killed in battle.

** The Stealth Suit squad annihilate a small party of Krieg troopers, shearing their Chimera transport in half with plasma fire and then [[spoiler:save one]] wiping the squad out. This is apparently the entire point of Mont'ka - an overwhelming surprise attack that does maximum damage. However the squad are themselves no match for Kelseth in their first skirmish.

* CurbStompBattle: A cadre of Crisis Battlesuits attempt to take on a Warlord Battle Titan after it's void shields are down. Not only are their attacks ineffective, but a second Warlord Titan appears and proceeds to completely annihilate them.

* DoNotGoGentle: The opening of the second episode has a wounded fire warrior about to be run over by a Leman Russ tank. The fire warrior pulls out their pistol and shoots at the tank in defiance before being squashed by the tank's treads.

* {{Catchphrase}}: As standard for the T'au, they are fond of declaring their roles are in service ''"For the Greater Good"''.
