David Christofferson (born 28?? - died 29??) was a Galaxy Commander in Clan Coyote at the time of the Londerholm Revolt of 2912. He would be most remembered for seizing the opportunity to strike a mighty blow against the Smoke Jaguars on the world of Albion.[1]
Biography
With few records to go on except the account of his victory on Albion, what stands out most regarding Galaxy Commander David Christofferson was the combination of his opportunism and his sense of justice.[1]
Smiting the Jaguar
After news of the Londerholm Revolt reached the contested world of Albion, the civilian population of the small Smoke Jaguar enclave revolted against their brutal oppressors. The civilians would issue a desperate plea for help from any of the other Clans on Albion. Sensing the advantages to be taken in this event, Galaxy Commander Christofferson launched a Trial of Possession for the Jaguar enclave. After defeating his OmniMech-equipped opponent with his second line units, Christofferson exercised his warrior prerogative by claiming everything as isorla; not only the enclave, but the Cluster, their Dropships and their Jumpship. To further insult his new Jaguar Bondsmen, he assigned all of them to the the lower castes of the former Smoke Jaguar enclave. Their former tormentors would learn a great deal about how justice works in castes that are beneath the attention or care of Clan warriors.[1][2]
Legacy
Serving at the height of Clan Coyote's dominance, David Christofferson would add to their holdings while handing their Clan Smoke Jaguar enemies a humiliating defeat. For this he would be remembered, though his entire Bloodname House would later be Reaved in 2976 due to its involvement in the Blood Scandal.[3]
