Early Years[edit]

Posting to Delta Galaxy[edit]
In January of 3062, she was transferred into Delta Galaxy. This came at the request of Khan Bjorn Jorgensson.[9] She was tasked with creating a new Trinary under Star Colonel Dana Vishio, then commanding officer of the Eighth Bear Cuirassiers.[10] She was given first choice of warriors and equipment, which was unusual.[11] She was informed that they were being stationed on Toffen as the only garrison unit [12]

She picked a Star Commander Constant Tseng whom she had met on her way to Alshain as her second in command and in command of the Striker Star.[13] A Star Commander Stone was selected as commander of their Sweep Star. They searched out selected various other warriors. There was a mix of trueborn and freeborn members [14] Their Trinary became known as The Stalking Bears. [15]
This Trinary was composed of three Stars. Her Command Star was a mix of assault and heavy OmniMechs, Striker Star was designed to be a mixture different weight classes, and Sweep Star was designed be light and fast 'Mechs, which also included Elementals,[16]
Toffen[edit]
