ProfessionMechWarrior

Angeline Mattlov was an elite[1] Clan Jade Falcon MechWarrior and the Galaxy commander of Peregrine Galaxy.

History

Early Life

She earned the rank of Star Commander in her initial Trial of Position. Promotions arrived quickly: Her natural skills and leadership qualities prompted her commanders to make her Star Captain, then Star Colonel. To win her Bloodname, she defeated a Star Colonel David, whose face was burned due to a reactor leak, leaving him a hideous scar. Angeline was the youngest Galaxy Commander of her Clan, but long before Operation REVIVAL, she had reached the zenith of her career. She took Star Colonel Evak Mattlov under her wing, sponsoring him in his Trial of Bloodright and as her replacement leading the 4th Falcon Velites.

Operation REVIVAL

Under her watch, Peregrine Galaxy performed with distinction.

After the battle of Tukayyid, she was considered old by Clan standards. Though well into her sixties, she still had the skill and speed of a younger warrior. She appeared to regain her former prominence in Clan Jade Falcon, but inexplicably, Khan Chistu stripped away many of her Galaxy's Clusters.[2]

Morges

In 3056, Angeline Mattlov would lead a Jade Falcon force to attack and control the planet Morges. The planet was being used by the Federated Commonwealth to launch raids into the Jade Falcon Occupation Zone. While her initial attack went well, the delaying tactics employed by the defending garrison bought enough time for reinforcement to arrive. After two day of intense fighting with the Wolf's Dragoons, 20th Arcturan Guards and 4th Skye Rangers, Angeline ordered a retreat off world.[3]

Refusal War

At the start of the Refusal War, they were stationed on Quarell and preparing for an invasion of the Free Rasalhague Republic.[4] With Natasha Kerensky and Ulric Kerensky dead, Phelan Ward was the last Wolf leader, so the Falcons attempted to chase Phelan Ward, but Phelan's Wolves fled to Lyran space. Omicron and Peregrine Galaxies were dispatched to Morges.[5] On Morges, the Wolves regrouped with the Kell Hounds, however hot on their heels were the Jade Falcons.[6] Under Mattlov's command, both Galaxies arrived in the system on 5 December hoping to wipe out the last functioning remnants of Clan Wolf. They brought news with them of the death of both Natasha and Ulric, but rather than demoralize the Wolves it only inspired them to honor their memory. On 13 December the Jade Falcons made planetfall with their entire force and the battle would rage across the snowy planet until 25 December, when the last Jade Falcon unit was destroyed and the Refusal War ended.[7] Vau Galaxy was disgraced in the Refusal War and disbanded.[8][9]

BattleMechs

At Tukayyid, Angeline Mattlov used a Timber Wolf.[1] During the battle of Morges, she piloted a Dire Wolf.
