Star Commander Darya Pryde was a Bloodnamed Clan Jade Falcon MechWarrior during Operation REVIVAL.[1]

History[edit]

In April of 3050, Clan Jade Falcon invaded Black Earth as part of the Second Wave of Operation REVIVAL. The entire Gyrfalcon Galaxy under Galaxy Commander Samantha Clees[1] was dispatched to conquer the world, which was defended by those survivors of both the First Grave Walkers and Seventeenth Skye Rangers who had managed to escape from earlier Falcon attacks. At the Black Earth Space Port the Jade Falcon aerospace contingent surprised its Seventeenth Skye counterparts while they were still on the ground, although in a show of fairness the Falcon aerospace commander allowed the enemy pilots to get in their fighters and take off before being destroyed. When the ground attack against the space port began the Seventeenth Skye managed to resist for little over an hour against the Jade Falcons before being overrun. At New Houston the Grave Walkers set fire to the oil at one of the refineries in hopes of using the resulting black smoke to screen their forces, only to learn that such a trick was useless against the superior technology of the Clans[2]. She was leading Charlie Eye 3 star from Trinary Charlie of the 2nd Falcon Jaegers Cluster against the battered last remnants of the Grave Walkers[3]. From opening shot to the defenders' final surrender the battle for Black Earth took less than thirty hours.[2]

She was still serving in the same unit prior to the Battle of Tukayyid.[1]

BattleMechs[edit]
