Josip was a Star Colonel in the Wolf Empire Touman who served under Star Colonel Othar.

History

Josip was one of the warriors left behind by Khan Alaric Ward in the Empire, after taking all the Wolf's touman to Terra to participate in the Battle of Terra.[1]

ilClan Era

After Star Colonel Othar took control of the Empire in Alaric's absence, becoming the de facto Vicreoy, he decided to create two new Galaxies, Rufus Galaxy and Lupus Galaxy, each composed of five new Clusters. Othar promoted all promising leaders to the rank of Star Colonel, including Josip. Josip was described as the deadliest man with a knife Othar had ever met. Josip was put at command of the lead Cluster of Lupus Galaxy, the Ninety-First Wolf Guards.[2]

When the Wolf's Dragoons Zeta Battalion invaded Gienah on 6 June 3152, Othar deployed Josip's 91st to oppose the Zeta raid.[3] While the 91st was deploying from their DropShips, the Dragoon DropShips managed to use artillery strikes to destroy all but one of the 91st's DropShips.[4]

Despite his unit's losses, Other pressed Josip to continue the attack on Zeta on foot, with only two Trinaries able to arrive at Gienah's capital, Alliago City.

Josip was killed in action when a building fell on his 'Mech. The 91st was annihilated soon after by the Dragoons. [5]

BattleMech

Josip piloted a Mad Dog.[6]

Physical Description

Josip was described as small enough to be mistaken for a muscular aerospace pilot, with light olive skin and black hair.[7]
