The Banshees were formed originally as a business venture in [[3049]] by Burton Rothroc. After truce in fighting with the Clans in [[3052]], the stable began growing by leaps and bounds due to number of retired veterans joining the stable.

However other new members to the stables were refugees from the decimated Free Rasalhague Republic.
  
During the late 3050s through the late 3060s, the stable's MechWarriors were ranked among the top 50 warriors in the games. The stable had developed an unhealthy rivalry with the [[Huntsmen Stables]] due to the owner's son being killed by them in [[3055]].<ref>''MapPack: Solaris VII'', p. 21, "The Banshee's profile" - Basic history from Mappacks.</ref>
