In [[3051]] Bassem Dichari was fighting for [[Starlight Stables]] and ranked 4th in [[Top 20 Unlimited Class List|Solaris Top Twenty]]. He has reached three years in a row the semifinals, but bad luck has always gone against him in the end. He intends to keep going, believing that skill can overcome the worst of luck.<ref name="SOLARISGMBp24">''Solaris Gamemaster's Book'', p. 24, "The Top 20"</ref>
 
 
Under the tutelage of Starlight Stables's chief instructor, [[3048]] champion [[Michael Romney]], Dichari would reach the semifinals for three years in a row, but bad luck always went against him in the end.<ref name="SOLARISGMBp24">''Solaris VII: The Game World – Gamemaster's Book'', p. 24, "The Top 20"</ref><ref name=S15>''Shrapnel'' magazine, issue #15, p. 185</ref>

Bassem Dichari was adept at using terrain and speed to foil his opponent's fire. At close quarters he preferred short range fire with lasers to hand-to-hand combat. He was a very good pilot with very intimate knowledge of the other major MechWarriors and their 'Mechs.<ref name="SOLARISGMBp24" />

He is a very good pilot and has very intimate knowledge of the other major MechWarriors and their 'Mechs. Sometimes, even planning fails and he ends up running against unexpected trouble that brings his schemes to naught.<ref name="SOLARISGMBp24">''Solaris Gamemaster's Book'', p. 24, "The Top 20"</ref>

==Mech==
In 3051 he was piloting a ''[[Mauler]]''<ref name="SOLARISGMBp24" /> and would pilot it in all tournaments where he reached the semifinals. This was the same 'Mech that Romney had piloted in 3048; it was implied to have been one of the initial batch of six ''Mauler'' prototypes built by the [[Capellan Confederation]], possibly one of two that were salvaged by [[Federated Suns]] forces on [[Beten Kaitos]] in [[3023]].<ref name=S15/>
