History[edit]
Moira Hernandez was a MechWarrior that participated in the 3135 Grand Tournament.
Moira Hernandez had classified automatically for the first round of the Grand Tournament. In the first round, that saw all 'Mechs competing against 'Mechs of like weight-classes, she was to fight Isaac Lynne, piloting a Jackalope. This uneven match was the most entertaining battle of the first round, with the lighter Jackalope doing his level best to dance and dart around Moira Hernandez's Violator until Hernandez managed to grab an ankle just as the Jackalope bounded into the air, bringing the little 'Mech crashing to the ground. Moira quickly applied the Violator's infamous drill, leaving the Jackalope little more than salvage. Lynne was tossed around the cockpit, but not badly hurt during the fight.
Moira's second round match was against Jing Lee. Though fans might have expected a Jing's win with his Thunderbolt against Moira's Violator, and though a Gauss hit nearly severed Moira's Violator's left arm, Moira pulled through once more, getting behind Jing's 'Mech and dropping him with a fiery blast of MRM fire.
In to the Quarterfinals of the Grand Tournament when she was matched with Gerhard Von Strucker. The combat was done in The Coliseum, and luck was on Moira's side. She was able to use the chaos-mode setting of the Coliseum to her advantage, managing with Gerhard Von Strucker's Catapult without taking too much damage, putting the drill in for the win.
In the Semifinal match, Moira gave it all, but without the speed advantage she had enjoyed for the last two rounds, and with her Violator chewed up from facing down heavier machines without ample time for repairs, it was only a matter of time before Trisha Swanson put the Violator down for the count. The Scourge's pilot did her stable proud, however, doing only as much damage as was necessary in order to win the match, holding back some of the Scourge's prodigious firepower to keep from endangering her opponent's life.[1]
