History[edit]
Early Career[edit]
Kingslay was member of the Word of Blake, and its Toyama Sect, from its formation in 3052. Initially a MechWarrior, he participated in the Word's second assault on Outreach in 3067, during which he was gravely injured by an ammunition explosion.[1]
Manei Domini[edit]
Following rehabilitation which included cybernetic replacements, Kingslay became a Manei Domini, and was retrained as a battle armor trooper. In this capacity he was transferred to the 43rd Shadow Division in 3072 following their losses on Arc-Royal, joining their covert mission on Radstadt.
When Clan Ghost Bear sought to eliminate the Blakist presence on Radstadt on 3074, Kingslay and his battle armor unit captured a Ghost Bear Ursus, which he used to carry the fight to his Clan enemies. Despite suffering serious burns while capturing the 'Mech, he managed to use it to achieve two more kills while covering his comrades retreat, before falling back himself. Kingslay was unaccounted for after the rout of his division, and as of 3075, it was unknown if he had survived or succumbed to his wounds.[1]
Combat Equipment[edit]
Battle Armor[edit]
Richmond was known to favor piloting a suit of "capture team" configuration Shedu assault battle armor.[1]
BattleMech[edit]
When piloting a BattleMech, Kingslay was initially known to use an Archer BattleMech, though on Radstadt he also piloted a captured Ursus.[1]
