After many years of peace and prosperity in the Inner Sphere, greed, hatred and
lust for power threaten to destroy it. Knowing that the path the House Lords had chosen
would lead the Inner Sphere to oblivion, Alexander Kerensky with 80% of his Star League
Defense Force left for what would be known as the Pentagon Worlds. Here they would start a
new Civilization built on his ideals.
Once settled on the Pentagon worlds tensions were high, discontent and rioting were
threatening to erupt into a civil war. Alexander sent Tero Leroux and a detachment of
troops to put down the rebellion. During the fighting Tero was killed by a fluke rebel hit
from a hand carried missile system.
Struck with grief, Alexander cited General order 137. Disregarding any legal
ramifications the order might bring, he sent in troops to execute the rebel forces. Among
the men he sent was one of his most loyal and skillful warriors, Collin Conners.
Eager to impose his revenge on the rebels, for the death of his fallen comrade, the
young Conners was granted the duty of executing the rebel forces. With his band of
warriors and mechs, Collin attacked with extreme force and precision. The efficiency of
their attack made quick work of the rebels but instead of preventing further conflict it
only caused more resentment towards Alexander and the standing military.
While preparing plans for a campaign to secure Edan Alexander died of a massive heart
attack. Nicholas Kerensky, Alexander's son, realized the only way to preserve his father's
dream and the salvation of his people was to call for an exodus to Strana Mechty. Knowing
that the civilians and scientist would be vital to their survival Nicholas issued pleas
through the media of the five planets urging them to join the exodus. With 25% of the
civilian population and many from the scientific community Nicholas left the Pentagon
Worlds for Strana Mechty.
With his army's training tainted by their sinful past, Nicholas organized his 800
warriors in to 20 Clans with 40 warriors each. Conners, a star commander in Clan
WidowMaker followed his Khan, Hunter to reclaim the Pentagon Worlds.
When the Clans returned to the five worlds they realized that the Exodus Civil War was
more devastating than any previous Succession War. The rebels were numerically superior
but it did not matter to the Clans. Under the guidance of Khan Hunter, Conners and his
Star attacked with savagery, destroying enemy mechs at a rate of 3 to 1. Khan Hunter was
pleased with Conners ability on the battlefield and immediately promoted him into the
ranks of the Keshik. This was a great honor to Collin, not only would he fight along side
his Khan but possibly with Nicholas Kerensky himself.
With the war nearly to end Conners found his self standing in the middle of a recently
finished battle in his Executioner. Nicholas had just spoken to him over comms,
congratulating Collin on his efforts in defeating a small band of rebels forces, and to
rendezvous with him in sector 17.
On his way around the mountain that separated him from Nicholas, Collins radar lit up
with an enemy mech inbound on his position. Collin was about to inform Nicholas of the
mech when 2 more appeared on his radar, and then another. Realizing that if Nicholas was
made aware if his situation he would most certainly come to his aid. But Collin did not
want to take the risk of Nicholas getting killed. If he died then the dream of Alexander
would die with him.
In that moment Collin Conners new what it meant to be a Warrior. Loyalty and sacrifice!
Collin broke from radio contact, and charged in to the on coming mechs. He fired every
weapon he had at the closet mech, sending the Crossbow crashing to the ground and
erupting into a ball of flames. Two of the rebel mechs fired back at Collin, melting armor
off his right arm and leg. With his auto cannons and medium lasers sited on Battle
Cobra Collin fired them into his leg, ripping through armor and damaging the internals
skeleton. Though it was crippled its weapons were not. The mech fired back, this time
severing Collins right arm. With the Battle Cobra mech crippled Collin sited in the
third and smallest mech. Aiming for the mechs CT Collin fired his PPC and hit the intended
spot, melting most of its armor. Collin fired again with his auto cannons and medium
lasers at the Adder. From the red and gold flashes coming through the mechs armor
Collin new he had damaged the fusion reactor and the mech was going to explode. When the
mech erupted the force sent Collins mech to the ground. Reaching out with the left arm
Collin was able to bring his self up right. The Battle Cobra fired at Collin but
did minimal damage to his back as half his weapons missed. The Huntsman did not
miss, large lasers and auto cannons ripped through Collins center and left torso, making
his mech stumble backwards. As his weapons recycled Collin steadied himself and fired all
the weapons he had left into the Huntsman cockpit. The mech's head exploded into
hundreds of pieces, while the main body slowly fell backwards and smashing down on the
terrain. Collin turned to put his sights back on the Battle Cobra, but it was too
late.
When Collin Conners came to, he saw Khan Hunter staring down at him. Collin asked if
Nicholas was safe. Hunter smiled and moved so Collin could see Nicholas. Nicholas knelt
down beside Collin and said " You will be remembered always Collin Conners".
With that Collin closed his eyes forever. His blood was taken and placed as one of the
honorable 760. Now, as Clan WidowMaker is reborn, some of the bravest and selfless
warriors are born every day. A warrior that carries such name as Conners is well know for
his/her loyalty to the clan and self sacrifice!
