Quinn Kerensky

Cleanup tagged articles without a reason field Quinn Kerensky (Born 3048) - Trueborn Clan Jade Falcon MechWarrior, Officer, and Galaxy Commander.

Character Description

Quinn is noted for lacking Clan-like behavior in combat, frequently using physical attacks against her opponents' mechs. Among her ambitions is to claim her genetic legacy for the Falcons. She is more comfortable in the cockpit of her BattleMech than the midst of the political turmoil her behavior causes.

History

Early Life and Career with Clan Wolf

Born in the Iron wombs of Clan Wolf, Quinn grew up as a sickly sibkid who matured to become a aggressive woman. She grew up holding back her full potential until her Trial of Position. In the Trial, while piloting a Linebacker she used unClanlike attacks against her opponents, including disabling a 'Mech by kicking it. She then tore its arm off and beat her next opponent with it until it was defeated. Such behavior would lead to many among Clan Wolf disliking her. During her Trial of Bloodright, she fought and won against an Elemental Warrior for the Kerensky name, but lost her left eye.

Finally fed up with her non-traditional ways, her fellow Clansmen would underbid to retain her when she became the target of a Trial of Possession by Clan Jade Falcon.

Clan Jade Falcon and the Jihad

As a result of the Wolves half-heartily defending her from being isorla, Quinn became bitter towards her former Clansmen. Her Falcon commanders provided her with opportunities to vent her rage against the Wolves as part of their strategy to keep them off guard.

In early 3074, she was assigned to work with Devlin Stone's Allied Coalition to crush the Blakist occupying forces on Coventry.

By 3077, Khan Samantha Clees promoted her to Galaxy Commander of Gamma Galaxy, replacing its old commanding officer after she was assassinated by Word of Blake agents in 3073. Her ascension to Galaxy Commander takes her further away from combat and more into realm of politics, something she has found challenging. Her desire to attain her generic legacy for the Falcons will require her to improve her skills in politics too. After taking command of the Galaxy she began efforts to stabilize the command that had been nearly depleted from constant fighting. Traditionists who have long been at odds with Quinn's methods questioned the choice of giving command of the Jade Falcons' most prestigious front-line Galaxy to her.
