The Elite Catani arose as a branch of the Catani fighting force. Those children who exhibited early growth and development as well as those who appeared to be of a more violent temperament were selected for a secret military program. Much time and money was invested on those individuals selected. They were subjected to a stimulus of anabolic steroids and a strict training regimen. Alongside this, the subjects were bombarded with various images of warfare to make the soldiers more prone to violence, turning them into highly disciplined killing machines. The Elite Catani are fiercely loyal and proud of their own military prowess, generally being one and a half times bigger than the average Catani soldier. They are equipped with the latest military hardware and are used rarely in battle situations due to the fearsome reputation. When word of their presence is heard the defenders invariably surrender without a fight, their exploits in the Madrahian system being remembered with angst.
Due to their strict training program and highly regimented nature, the Catani only ever recognise a single leader in their lifetimes, sometimes known to go rogue if this figure should ever die. The Elite Catani pride themselves on being the best and often use prison outposts such as Insidion to hone their skills in combat. It has been said that a single Elite Catani has been known to devastate half the prison population on a single planet in one visit. This also provides the ideal opportunity to test out the new equipment they are sometimes provided with. However, more often than not they make modifications to their own weaponry since they harbour the belief what they are using is too weak. As such, any Elite Catani weapon is likely to be more powerful than a standard issue firearm even though they have the same outward appearance. They are also famed for their calm and collective nature. Their calm in the face of slaughtering defenceless people has been said to be one of the most jarring experiences ever witnessed.
