Colin Maclaren was a member of Black Widow Company.[1]
History[edit]
Maclaren served with Natasha Kerensky and was present at Nova Roma in June 3014 when Lieutenant Kerensky and her heavy lance fell to an ambush. Kerensky and Maclaren were the only survivors. Afterward, their 'Mechs, including Kerensky's famed Marauder, were salvaged by the Bounty Hunter.[2]
In 3015, Kerensky formed the Black Widow Company of Wolf's Dragoons, and Maclaren, fiercely loyal to her, was among the first transfers to the unit.[1]
He participated in all Black Widow Company engagements from 3015 to 3025 and came to appreciate his companions, whom he considered just jailbirds when he first met them.[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]
By the time of the Battle of Misery he had been promoted to sergeant.[12]
He fought with the rest of the Dragoons on Misery, Glenmora, and Crossing.[12]
BattleMech[edit]
Colin was known to be a MAD-3R Marauder pilot.[1]
In the Apocryphal BattleTech: Heavy Metal Colin piloted a custom variant designated the MAD-CM.[13]
