History[edit]
Dai Da Chi Lance[edit]
A political officer assigned to Warrior House Dai Da Chi, Phiri had an aura of danger that surrounded her. With an unimpeachable reputation for loyalty, and an excellent knowledge of Capellan law, she was often briefed by the Maskirovka in light of her status as one of its agents. She made it her task to ensure all within Dai Da Chi remained committed to the Chancellor, and did not hesitate to eliminate those who she suspected, who often simply disappeared after being questioned.[1][2][3] As of 3133, Phiri also commanded a Lance within Warrior House Dai Da Chi, which included Catalina Trujillo, Jung Chae and Vincent Altman.[4] In battle Phiri preferred stealth and long-distance attacks.[1]
Algol[edit]
Phiri fought against the Republic of the Sphere aligned Northwind Fusiliers on Algol, as part of a raiding force sent to disrupt the Republic's food supplies from the breadbasket world, including the initial fighting for the Algol DropPort in Algol City. During this engagement she fought with Highlanders including Alyson Pelayo, whose presence in addition to regular Republic Armed Forces troops had not been expected by Capellan intelligence. These intelligence failures raised Phiri's suspicions that the sources being used by the Warrior Houses for their assaults were perhaps not whole reliable, and would need her attention.[5]

The name of Phiri gave to this 'Mech implied she believed her authority comes directly from the emperor, Chancellor Daoshen Liao himself, as gold is a royal color in the Chinese influenced Confederation.[1]
