Bjorn Jorgensson at age of 32

Bjorn Jorgensson (born 3018 – died ?; was an aerospace pilot and former Khan of Clan Ghost Bear.

Early Life

Bjorn was originally brought up in a MechWarrior sibko, but failed in this initial Trial of Position. However, he was given a second attempt to join the Warrior Caste in a different branch of the Clan touman per Ghost Bear tradition. He would excel in his new training as an aerospace pilot and won the rank of Star Captain by defeating three opponents in his second Trial of Position.

Clan Invasion

Bjorn served in the 140th Striker (Clan Ghost Bear) in the early waves of Operation Revival. However, he would only see combat in the second wave when elements of Delta Galaxy (Clan Ghost Bear) were used to retake worlds that had rebelled. Shortly there after, he would test out as a Star Colonel and was about to take command of 140th when outside events changed his path.

The death of saKhan Theresa DelVillar caused great change with the Ghost Bears. The Bloodnamed of the Clan would choose Aletha Kabrinski as saKhan to replace Theresa. Almost immediately upon taking the office, Aletha would issue a call for dismissal against Khan Karl Bourjon for the failures of the Ghost Bear campaign. The Bloodnamed of the Clan quickly supported this call and nominated Bjorn for the position of Khan. Karl Bourjon would issue a Trial of Refusal against this move by his fellow Bloodnamed and challenged Bjorn. After a brief battle, Bjorn defeated Karl and offered him hegira thus assumed the title of Khan.

Upon taking office, Bjorn worked to correct several of the mistakes that the Clan had taken. With his training as both a MechWarrior and an aerospace pilot, as well as his strategic thinking, Bjorn quickly turned everything around for the Ghost Bears. The Clan would take more worlds than any other Clan in the fourth wave, save Clan Wolf, and were supremely positioned to take the lead toward Terra in the next wave. However, the Battle of Tukayyid would alter the fate of the invasion.
