Tor Jonson was a member of the Second Oriente Hussars.[1]

History[edit]

He was a member in Roger Gallivan's company that was assigned to the company's Pursuit Lance. Stationed on Wallacia after it followed Andurien's lead in seceding from the Free Worlds League, the unit seized the capital of the planet. The government-in-exile responded by hiring the Black Widow Battalion of Wolf's Dragoons to liberate the planet, leading to battles throughout the autumn of 3032 which cost the Second a Battalion of 'Mechs and the planet.[2][1]

Jonson fought the Natasha Kerensky, the infamous Black Widow, on the 3rd of October 3032 in the capital city of Saranak. Saranak was the location of Carlin Palace, and Jonson's unit tried to prevent Kerensky from escorting Prime Minister Shandra Tate to the capital. His unit was undergunned and the Second took too much time to send support to him, and as a result Shandra Tate was able to deliver her speech. After this, the Second Oriente Hussars commander, Arthur "Cap" Rivernider agreed to Tate's conditions and by New Year's Eve of 3033 Wallacia was again independent.[1]

BattleMechs[edit]

Jonson piloted a Spider.[1]
