History:
(War of Kings#2 (fb) - BTS) - Triton trained a new team of the New Inhuman Elite, all with aquatic abilities, to be ready for combat in Zero-G environments.

(War of Kings#1) - As Crystal prepared to marry Ronan the Accuser, the Imperial Guard (Gladiator, Plutonia, Manta, Smasher/Salac Tuur, Squorm, Neutron, Starbolt, Mentor, Astra, Hussar, Hobgoblin, Scintilla, Titan, Nightside, Impulse, Flashfire, Magique, Electron, Black Light, Pn'zo, Warstar, Earthquake, Fang, Schism, White Noise, Voyager) attacked, fighting Kree soldiers and the New Inhuman Elite, some of whom used echo weapons, which drew power from capacitors storing the whispers of their king. The Imperial Guard kidnapped Lilandra and escaped, and the Inhumans vowed revenge.

(War of Kings#2) - Triton led his aquatic team, including Dorhun and Albakor, in an assault on the Shi'ar. They retrieved intel that revealed the location of Lilandra and relayed it back to Havok and the Starjammers.

(War of Kings#3) - The New Inhuman Elite continued pressing their attacks on the Shi'ar forces, getting the upper-hand.

(Nova IV#26 (fb) - BTS) - Triton and Ra-Venn led the New Inhuman Elite in aiding civilians on Nil-Rast, where many of the Nova Corps had been killed.

(Nova IV#26) - When more Nova Corps showed up, with Richard Rider leading them, the Elite initially stood against them, but then worked with them to find their fallen members.

(Realm of Kings: Inhumans#1 (fb) - BTS) - With the Inhumans now in charge of the Kree Empire, Gorgon trained a new group of soldiers to fight with him as the New Inhuman Elite. Among them was Dendrok.

(Realm of Kings: Inhumans#1) - On the planet Kon-Tar, in the Kree Empire, Ikarys was publicly accepting the consulship as leader of the people from Medusa, with Ronan the Accuser and his wife Crystal watching. Suddenly, Blastaar's soldiers attacked, so Lockjaw brought in the New Inhuman Elite. Gorgon and Ronan the Accuser worked together to defeat Raankor. Triton selected members of the New Inhuman Elite, including Cteno, to join him and Ra-Venn on a mission into the Fault to look for Black Bolt. The Elite returned to Attilan, where Devos the Devastator attacked, but the Avengers (Hercules, Quicksilver, Stature, USAgent, Vision/Jonas, Wasp/Hank Pym) arrived to help.

(Realm of Kings: Inhumans#2) - The New Inhuman Elite attacked Devos' attack drones, aiding the Avengers in protecting Attilan.

(Realm of Kings: Inhumans#3) - In the Fault, Cteno aided Triton and Ra-Venn in finding a resonant memory of Black Bolt's battle with Vulcan. On Hala, in Attilan, Gorgon realized that Maximus the Mad had been manipulating both the Alpha Primitives and Kree technology in assaults on the city.

(Realm of Kings: Inhumans#4) - Gorgon sent the New Inhuman Elite to guard various sections of the city. When they found Maximus inside the Chamber of Devices, Gorgon sent Dendrok to guard the perimeters while he confronted Maximus.

(Realm of Kings: Inhumans#5 (fb) - BTS) - The Kree of Triton's crew were all mutated and merged into a giant beast by an unknown radioactive energy inside the Fault. The Inhuman crewmen were unaffected. When Triton's ship crashed on Hala the monster attacked. After Crystal, Gorgon, Lockjaw, Ronan and Triton failed to contain it, Medusa sent in Chorus Sentries, who incinerated the monster.

Raankor

(Realm of Kings: Inhumans#1 (fb) - BTS) - Raankor served Blastaar when the Baluurians were ceded a Kree territory in the positive universe.

(Realm of Kings: Inhumans#1) - Raankor and his soldiers attacked the planet Kon-Tar, during an Inhuman ceremony, and they started fighting the New Inhuman Elite soldiers. Gorgon battled Raankor directly, soon burying the villain in an earthquake and then Ronan the Accuser defeated Raankor with a hammer blow.
