Described as extroverted and even flashy, Dwillt Radick was a talented [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarrior]] and commander who delighted in taunting his enemies on the field of battle. Away from the fight he was described as a passionate speaker and a generous host, though he was also noted to be a dangerous enemy to those who could rouse his ire.<ref name=WCSp95>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook'', p. 95 - "Star Colonel Dwillt Radick"</ref>

At the battle's end, Star Colonel Pershaw refused to accept Star Captain Radick as [[bondsman]], sending the Wolf warrior back to his commander in further humiliation. Though he would attempt to shunt blame for the defeat onto his subordinate, [[Star Commander]] [[Craig Ward]], any fault would still lie squarely on his shoulders as winner of the bid.<ref>''Bloodname'', chapters 20, 21</ref>

Rising to the rank of Star Colonel by the time of the invasion of the [[Inner Sphere]], Radick was chosen to command the 16th Battle Cluster after the elevation of Mikel Furey to [[Galaxy Commander]] of [[Gamma Galaxy (Clan Wolf)|Gamma Galaxy]].<ref name=WCSp95/> They would see action on [[The Edge]], [[Rodigo]], [[Feltre]], [[Mozirje]], and [[Ferleiten]], while taking part in larger attacks with Gamma Galaxy on [[Maestu]] and [[Skandia]].

===Post Tukayyid Plots===
In the post-Tukayyid era, Star Colonel Radick continued to command the 16th Battle, encouraging the unit's individualism. Paint schemes, clothing attire, as well as tactics were all described as flamboyant by most [[Clan]] standards. However, his grudge against the pacifistic [[Warden]] Craig Ward - now a Star Captain - only grew with time. Throughout the invasion and after, Radick would consistently assign Star Captain Ward tasks deemed impossible, leading many observers to believe that he was attempting to kill his subordinate. He would later ban challenges of warriors in the 16th against Star Captain Ward, due to Ward killing several challengers.<ref name=ER3052p45/><ref name=WCSp95/>
