Noritomo Helmer (b. 3104[1] - d. ????) was a trueborn warrior in Clan Jade Falcon.

History

During the Falcon desant of 3134, Noritomo was a Star Colonel in command of the 305th Assault Cluster, part of Malvina Hazen's Delta Galaxy.[2] After the fighting on Kimball, Noritomo assumed command of the 7th Falcon Striker Cluster.[3]

In 3135, when the bulk of Beckett Malthus' forces left the Falcon's Reach to return to the Jade Falcon Occupation Zone, Noritomo was promoted to Galaxy Commander and charged with the defense of the new Falcon holdings.[4]

By 3145 Helmer was in command of the elite 124th Striker Cluster as well as its parent Zeta Galaxy in the Falcon's Reach.[5]

BattleMechs

During the initial stage of the desant Noritomo piloted a Phoenix Hawk IIC BattleMech,[6] switching later to a Gyrfalcon.[7]

Notes

  • Noritomo was alluded to being 28 years old in 3134[8] (indicating his birth to be in 3106), but a specific year was given in later material.
