The names of the Warheads troops are a direct reference to the names of the 10 Sephiroth emanations of God in the Kabbalah. We can tell it is a direct reference as the Warheads were originally depicted as entering wormholes on a model of the cabalistic Tree of Life, and they entered the wormhole where the Sephiroth Kether is situated. Significantly "Kether" is the Sephiroth at the top of the tree of life and "Kether" means "crown". "Kether" also is the Sephiroth closest to God and represents ultimate goodness. The Kether Troop eventually showed their goodness by turning on the evil Mys-Tech organisation. The Ubu Troop is not named after a Sephiroth.

Famous quotes containing the word troops:
“But, where the road runs near the stream,
Oft through the trees they catch a glance
Of passing troops in the sun’s beam—
Pennon, and plume, and flashing lance!
Forth to the world those soldiers fare,
To life, to cities, and to war!”
—Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
