Torrent (b. 3??? - d. 3133) is a trueborn MechWarrior from Clan Wolf who has joined Kal Radick's Steel Wolves as a Star Colonel.

Character History

Torrent has refused, on two occasions, to receive a bloodname. As a ristar this is seen as normal. He is waiting for a more prestigious bloodname to become available for him to take part in a Trial of Bloodright. For he is of the Kerensky bloodline, and only wants the honor of having it as his bloodname.[1]

Notable Actions

Torrent was the commanding officer for the invasion force against Achernar. His goal was to lure Knight-Errant Kyle Powers away from the planet of Ronel where another invasion force was headed to secure the working HPG network. His secondary objective, was to take the planet for the Steel Wolves if at all possible.

He was able to achieve his primary goal and more when he was able to kill Powers in a Trial of Grievance. He was unable to win the trial and had to cede the field to Raul Ortega.[2] With the loss, he pushed his force to accomplish the second objective. Unfortunately, Ortega was able to once again best Torrent in open combat.[3]

Death

In the final battle for Achernar, Torrent's 'Mech engaged Ortega's 'Mech in hand to hand combat. Ortega was able to breach the shielding on the fusion reactor causing the reactor to go critical. The ensuing explosion disintegrated Torrent's Tundra Wolf leaving nothing where he once was.

BattleMech

During the invasion of Achernar, Torrent piloted a Tundra Wolf.
