Anselm Remaldi was a Leftenant in Second Battalion of the First Avalon Hussars.

History

Remaldi was born a commoner in the Federated Suns who became a MechWarrior only because First Prince Caleb Davion reactivated the Training battalion program. Despite a natural ability it still took years for the noble-born traditionalists of the Hussars to respect him. Taking part in the 3147 Operation PERCEVAL the battle of Clovis against the Forty-fifth Benjamin Regulars was a turning point for Remaldi. He first met Chu-i Reginald Benton's Stinger, the "Tangerine Ghost" in a running battle between the Regulars and local resistance. Remaldi legged Benton's Stinger in that first meeting. The pair faced off again in 3148, this time Benton returned the favor and forced Remaldi to eject. He was briefly captured but escaped with the help of the underground and took over the Locust of a Hussar who had died in an accident. The pair met at least four more times, never a decisive victory though Remaldi lost two more Locusts. Soldiers on both sides routinely bet on the next outcome, and surrounding fighting would often halt while the pair dueled. The two have developed a deep hatred for each other, with Remaldi viewing the contest as exemplifying the excesses of the nobility. In 3150 the Hussars were finally rescued, and the Regulars surrendered the world. As Benton left, Remaldi broadcast a series of taunts knowing it would infuriate Benton, their feud unresolved.

BattleMech

Remaldi has piloted at least four Locusts.
