Early years[edit]
Stacy Church was orphaned as a little child on Caph and rescued by soldiers of Wolf's Dragoons at age three. She was given the surname by the Dragoons because they found her in the remnants of a church. Adopted by the Dragoons, Stacy was put into a training sibko with other war orphans. She would eventually overcome the loss of her parents by devoting her life to the Dragoons and becoming a capable warrior.
Early career and the Dragoon Civil War[edit]

She was the lone survivor of an ambush that wiped out her entire command. Left for dead in her wrecked 'Mech, she was rescued shortly after. When the Dragoons withdrew to Arc-Royal, she attempted remain behind to fight the Blakists but was ordered by General Maeve Wolf to withdraw with the rest of the Dragoons.
On Arc-Royal, she became the commander of the newly re-formed Black Widows Company in 3069.

Later, she was given an experimental Zeus-X BattleMech donated by the Kell Hounds. Her company was the first Dragoons unit to return to active service. Her unit took on various opponents as the Jihad progressed, including the elite Blakist unit Opacus Venatori.
