Name: Marcus Taylor
Age: 27
Height: 5'9"
Weight: 163 lbs
Eyes: Hazel
Hair: Reddish-Brown
History: Marcus Taylor has a pretty standard background. His mother was a homemaker and his father was a foreman in a nearby mech factory. At a young age Marcus was always exposed to battlemechs and has been fascinated by them. Despite his high marks in school and an invitation to attend Tharkad University, he received his parent's blessing and joined the military. He was fast tracked into an officer's academy where he earned a reputation for his ferocity in battle and charismatic leadership.
Qualifications: After a hastened graduation from Nagelring Academy in 3059, he was sent to the front at the age of 19 as part of Operation Bulldog. While away Marcus learned of his father's passing just after victory was claimed against the Smoke Jaguar forces.
The promising performance that Marcus displayed during the Operation had him fast tracked to a newly formed unit that was used primarily as shock troops on the fringes of Davion held space. Sometime in June 3068, his unit's Dropship suffered a fusion drive malfunction that killed all hands aboard. He was spared the fate that his unit suffered that while performing duties elsewhere.
Currently: With his mother now older and unable to fend for herself, he decided to join the mercenary outfit named the Legionnaires (the unit he was with during the event that destroyed his unit) so that he can help his mother live out her days in comfort.
NOTE: Rumor has that a handful of survivors from Taylor's previous unit were with him at the time and foul play has been ruled out.
