The year is 25 years after the formation of Goodie Hunters. The world has changed, but so has the path of justice. In the aftermath of **Manav's rejection** of the Global Parliament presidency, a new chapter of history begins to unfold, but not one of unity. In the shadows of the political upheaval, **Crimson Serpent** is born — a criminal organization founded on revolution, reshaping the world through force and ideology.
At the heart of this movement is **Murali**, a man whose true face remains obscured, even to his closest followers. Murali is more than just a leader; he is a symbol of an unyielding desire for change, driven by the belief that only destruction and revolution could bring about a better world. He is the one who manipulates the strings from behind the curtain, a master of ideas, creating a vision that will shape the future of the criminal underworld. His ideology, rooted in **radical transformation**, quickly attracts disillusioned individuals—people whose lives had been marred by injustice, powerlessness, and loss. Among them, **Jai**, **Lalita**, **Ravi**, and **Vikram** emerge as the first members, each one bringing their own distinct beliefs and motivations.
While the rest of the recruits are introduced as loyal followers of Murali's grand design, **Jai** is different. His decision to join Crimson Serpent was not one of idealism, but rather one of **revenge** and **redemption**. His journey into the organization's fold is a tragic one, marked by deep sorrow and years of struggling with his inner demons.
Jai was once a proud military officer, serving his country with distinction. Born into a humble family, Jai's life was shaped by the values of duty, honor, and service. His father, a war hero, instilled in him a sense of pride in serving the nation, believing that the power of law and justice was the greatest force for good in the world. Jai admired his father deeply, seeing him as a symbol of unwavering righteousness. But those ideals were shattered the day his father was **betrayed by the very system he had devoted his life to.**
It started with a corrupt political figure — **General Arvind**, a high-ranking officer in the military who had close ties to the government. Under the guise of patriotism, Arvind used his power to control resources meant for the military, diverting them for personal gain. When Jai's father, **Commander Iqbal**, discovered this, he made the difficult choice to confront Arvind and expose the corruption. Iqbal believed that the law would prevail, that his country would honor its heroes.
Instead, the system failed him.
The very authorities Jai's father had once served betrayed him, accusing Commander Iqbal of **espionage** and **treason**—false charges, of course. The investigation was rigged, the evidence fabricated, and the trial a complete farce. In the end, **Commander Iqbal was dishonorably discharged** and later found dead under suspicious circumstances, his name smeared and his legacy destroyed.
Jai was left to pick up the pieces of a life that had been turned upside down. The bitterness he felt towards a system that had once been the very foundation of his beliefs consumed him. His mother fell ill shortly after, unable to cope with the grief of losing her husband and her dignity. Jai tried to pick up the pieces of his family, but the loss was too much. He watched as the system that had ruined his family continued on without consequence, knowing that the power of truth and justice was a lie.
In his heart, a new desire took root: **vengeance**. He became determined to seek justice for his father, but not through the established channels, not through the system that had failed him. He would **reshape the world through destruction**, using the very methods that had been used to destroy his family. The more he searched for a way to take action, the more his path led him to the shadows, to men like Murali.
Jai's recruitment into **Crimson Serpent** was not one of persuasion, but of realization. Murali's ideology resonated with him, the notion that in order to change the world, one must tear down the old, corrupt systems and build something new from the rubble. Murali's speech about **revolution** and **force** echoed in Jai's mind, giving him a purpose, a reason to live beyond the pain of his past. **Crimson Serpent** was no longer just a criminal organization; it was a chance for Jai to make the world pay for his father's death.
Murali saw potential in Jai, recognizing his strength and his **deep-rooted pain**. He made Jai one of the first members of Crimson Serpent, offering him a way to act on his pain, to strike at the heart of the very power structure that had destroyed his life.
Jai's first mission for Crimson Serpent was a **targeted assassination** of a **corporate magnate** who had ties to General Arvind's network. This was no random mission; it was Jai's chance to enact his revenge on the system that had wronged him. But the reality of carrying out such a cold, calculated act was far more difficult than he anticipated. **Killing the man** was easy. But the weight of it—the guilt, the realization that no matter how many enemies he destroyed, it wouldn't bring his father back—sank in slowly, eating away at his spirit.
Yet, Jai continued, driven by his single-minded goal of reshaping the world. The missions grew darker, more brutal, and Jai found himself further removed from the man he once was. The world of **Crimson Serpent** was one where the lines between right and wrong blurred, where loyalty to Murali and the organization took precedence over everything else. Jai became a weapon—both a servant and a soldier of a revolution that he did not fully understand, but one he was too deep in to back out of.
