Planetary History
Star League Era
During the final years of the Star League, Quarell was considered important enough to host an SLDF garrison.[44]
Fourth Succession War
In mid-3029, following several months of consolidation in the aftermath of Operation GÖTTERDÄMMERUNG, the Lyran Commonwealth went on the offensive again in the Trellshire and Tamar theaters of operation. While a large part of the Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces' attention went into trying to win ongoing conflicts on a handful of worlds, seven new planetary assaults were launched. Quarell, defended only by militia units, was one of the seven worlds targeted and was swiftly conquered.[45]
Clan Invasion
The Quarell 'Mech Battalion tried to use hit-and-run tactics already successfully used against the Clans to defend Quarell but failed. With fighter surveillance and orbital 'Mech drops the Gyrfalcon Galaxy warriors destroyed the Quarell 'Mechs and, enraged over their recent losses to Clan Steel Viper, exceeded even their usual ruthlessness so much that only six militiamen survived to become bondsmen.[24]
Star Colonel Aidan Pryde participated in the conquest of Quarell, and shortly after personally quelled a rebellion that erupted in Vreeport when local denizens refused to be taken as bondsmen. He ordered the city evacuated and then destroyed as a deterrent against further insurrection.[46]
Jihad
Quarell was taken by Clan Wolf during the early years of the Jihad and would remain under Wolf control for the next half-century.[33][39]
Dark Age
When Clan Wolf abandoned its Occupation Zone in 3137 warriors from the Rasalhague Dominion's Beta Galaxy annexed Quarell shortly after.[40]
Following the near-annihilation of the Jade Falcon Touman on Terra in 3151, Jiyi Chistu, the new Falcon Khan on Sudeten, raided Quarell hoping to secure for his Clan the large number of Clan Ghost Bear cadets training there. The resulting Trial of Possession ended in a Pyrrhic victory for Chistu's Falcons, as they departed with over fifty warrior-cadets and Ghost Bear bondsmen at the cost several 'Mechs and warriors they could ill afford to lose.[47]
