History[edit]
He was a member of the Falcon Guards during their battle on Tukayyid and was instrumental in rescuing MechWarrior Diana, who later became renowned as Diana Pryde.[3]
Selima was also instrumental in the Jade Falcon retreat on Tukayyid. When two Comstar DropShips landed behind Jade Falcon lines in an attempt to prevent the Falcon's forces from leaving, Selima was able to lead a Trinary of Elementals against the Comstar landing zone before they could deploy their BattleMechs. Selima was able to disable an enemy Highlander in such a way that if fell back into one of the DropShips and exploded thus causing a chain reaction that resulted in the destruction of the DropShip and all enemy forces on board. This delayed Comstar's forces enough for the Jade Falcon troops to board their DropShips and leave Tukayyid.[4]
Selima's actions at Tukayyid, including fighting to allow the crossing of a key bridge, brought him a few dedicated lines in the Remembrance.[5]
Battle Armor[edit]
