History
Early Life
The descendant of a Star League Defense Force solider who chose to stay behind in the Inner Sphere and become a freelance mercenary, rather than join Aleksandr Kerensky's Operation EXODUS, being a mercenary MechWarrior was in Santiago Padilla's blood. Therefore becoming a MechWarrior with the Ghost Legion, with its mercenary past, was a nature choice for Padilla.[1]
Battle of Ronel
In 3133 Padilla helped to repulse a raid on Ronel by Dragon's Fury forces under Tai-i Abeda Measho.[2]
BattleMech
Padilla was known to have piloted a Firestarter BattleMech, serial number FS748-24Y, nicknamed "Matchstick". This 'Mech first experienced combat in 2900, in the hands of the Eridani Light Horse, during an assault on the Draconis Combine world of Radalah. It subsequently passed through the ownership of a number of mercenary commands, including Blue Star Irregulars, Kell Hounds, Waco Rangers and Wilson's Hussars. It came into the hands of the then Vanguard Legion during a game of poker, when the Legion's CO Colonel Chad Dean won it from the Harlock's Warriors CO Samantha Viele in 3061.[1]
