Lars Magnusson was, as of 3145, the Galaxy Commander of Alpha Galaxy and a key figure of the Dominion Civil War.[1]

History

Early Career

Lars grew up knowing that in his blood was the rank of nobility and of his heritage as the first-generation spawn of Ragnar Magnusson.[1] During his Trial of Position, Lars was able to defeat two opponents which gave him the rank of Star Commander where he was assigned to Alpha Galaxy. Due to Devlin Stone and his actions for peace within the Inner Sphere, Lars saw very little action and the fighting he did see was mostly just raids between the neighboring Clan Occupation Zones.[1]

In 3134, an unexpected opportunity arose which allowed Lars to participate in a Trial of Bloodright in which he ultimately won his Bloodname.[1]

Due to being a descendant of Rasalhagian nobility and being newly Bloodnamed, Khan Dalia Bekker selected Lars to join her entourage to Terra to pay their respects at the funeral of Victor Steiner-Davion. It was at the funeral where Lars was able to shelve his warrior nature and bond with other nobles of the Inner Sphere on a personal level. It was due to these bonds that Lars fought against both the Capellans and the rebellious Senate before the Ghost Bears returned to the Rasalhague Dominion.[1]

After Gray Monday, Alpha Galaxy was one of the galaxies that was sent into Prefecture I in order to stabilize the situation, they were stationed on Alrakis.[1]

Upon returning to Orestes by the order of the Khan, Lars participated in a Trial of Position and won the rank of Galaxy Commander of Alpha Galaxy.[1]

Personality

Lars grew up knowing that in his blood granted him an aura of nobility due to his heritage as Ragnar Magnusson's spawn. The Ghost Bear in him rejected the idea of his class of nobility, but his aptitude for politics recognized the potential of his blood could have in interstellar relations.[1] He was also notable for his sense of humor.[4]

BattleMechs

Lars piloted an Ursus nicknamed Ull.[4]

Quotes

The Ursus isn't for everyone. When you first start piloting it, it can be a real bear of a 'Mech.[5]
