Background: Elijah Cunningham was born just before the outbreak of the second Tiberium war, and has lived his life in the midst of constant conflict. He joined GDI as soon as he was able, proving himself in the line of duty against Nod remnants and in one instance the horrible cyborgs of a CABAL bunker. Quickly distinguishing himself and becoming and officer, Cunningham did his part to help retake the North-Eastern Blue Zone at the beginning of the Third Tiberium War. The conflict saw his rise to the position of battle-commander, working to relieve the pressure from other blue zones while GDI's golden boy pressed the advantage against the newly Reunited Nod. 
	With the Scrin invasion soon following, and then ending with the Third Tiberium War, Elijah continued his climb up the ladder all through the interim before the Ascension conflict. A general, he was tasked once again with many missions which were seen as secondary to those overseen by James. With Nod gone, Tiberium purged from the planet, and the Scrin tower under his supervision, Cunningham was prepared to sit out the rest of his years in such a comfortable post. However the continued prodding and experimentation of enthusiastic GDI scientists, technicians, and engineers would lead to his abduction, and the abduction of his garrisoned forces and civilian personnel. 
	Thrown into some strange world, the commander quickly rallied his men and their rather sparse armored division. There would be no crawlers, no air support, and for the first time in his life he missed the horrible alien resource which had made the production of arms and armor a breeze. The fighting that first week was hard, and there were more casualties than he would have cared for, but still they survived. Against savages, aliens, thinking machines, and even some manner of psychic race or cult, they came out on top. Ever since they've been consolidating, hunkering down at one of the strange nodes that littered the unfamiliar world. His technicians and researchers discovered that the alien technology has production qualities akin to that of Tiberium, producing all manner of resources easily and quickly. To this, they have fortified and armed the Node to the teeth, engineers taking advantage of the Node's resources to build the iconic GDI defenses, war machines, and structures. What's more, under the direction of General Cunningham, they have begun researching and constructing prototypes of their own, small sub-nodes to reduce the pressure on the main instillation, providing power and an improved rate of production.
