Biography
A Hell's Horses Ristar, Tanya DeLaurel would rise to command the Horses' Alpha Galaxy. Her leadership, tactical abilities, and most of all success against the Ghost Bears on Niles in 3046 would bring her to the attention of Malavai Fletcher. Personally chosen to be his saKhan, her level-headed nature would temper the more chaotic nature of her Khan. Though known to have a Crusader mindset, her reserve put her in sharp contrast with her Khan.[2]
It was often rumored that it was her abilities that brought about the first Horse incursion into the Inner Sphere. Though this would end in failure, she would keep her position and continue to work for the betterment of her Clan. In 3061, seeing the need for a DropShip capable of transporting the combined arms troops of the Horses, saKhan DeLaurel would commission the new Outpost-class vessel.
