Alan Plisskin was a freelance mercenary MechWarrior, sometimes associated with the Wolf Hunters, during the Dark Age Era.[1][2]

History[edit]

Plisskin was known for working with the Wolf Hunters, who were thought to have provided his 'Mech. He gained a level of notoriety for having suffered at least six direct hits to his cockpit during his career until 3145, but somehow walking away alive each time.

Personally Plisskin was quiet and aloof, refusing even to shake hands, even when agreeing a contract. This behavior led to rumors he may have survived his various injuries due to cybernetic reconstruction, and that he may have ties with Word of Blake cells. In battle Plisskin was a risk taker and daredevil, using tactics such as pretending to be out of ammunition, in order to trick opponents into giving him an opportunity to line up a perfect shot.[1][2]

Plisskin played on this reputation when seeking new employers, posting an ad on Levin's List on 17 December 3136, suggesting he was a suicidal pilot on a first name basis with Lady Luck. At this time Plisskin was using an agent called Suzie D., who was based on Saffel.[3]

BattleMech[edit]

Plisskin was known to have piloted a VTR-V1-H Vulture Mk IV OmniMech, nicknamed "Bringit".[1][2]
