Que was well known for quer sexual libertarianism, living what many conservative commentators considered to be a dissolute life. It therefore came as a tremendous shock when owiavi resigned from the team, converted to Russian Orthodoxy, defected to [[The Archregimancy]] and took the name of Brother David of the Woods.
