History[edit]

Derek Hudsenn was raised by his father to be a mercenary. He was part of his father's mercenary unit (the Hudsenn's Red Devils) when his father was killed during the Andurien-Canopian invasion of the Capellan Confederation. Though he tried to get his legacy and his father's unit command, Major Braderick Morgenstern, surviving ranking officer assumed command of the Red Devils. His bad attitude alienated a lot of MechWarriors, and finally Captain Derek Hudsenn and his company split from the Red Devils in 3045 and formed Derek's Devils.

His unit was contracted quickly by the Magistracy of Canopus and they have justified the faith their employer put in them.[1]

Later he used his mercenary unit to the Fronc Reaches where they became the 1st Fronc Cuirassiers.[2]

BattleMechs[edit]

Derek Hudsenn piloted an AWS-8Q Awesome.[1]

Notes[edit]

Derek Hudsenn's preference for melee combat is well known among pirates operating in and around Canopian space. His armor routinely requires extensive replacement after wading through enemy fire to engage in physical combat.[1]
