Mechwarrior Darryl was a Kindraa Payne Mechwarrior. He was widely known as a ristar as of 3059, and had yet to earn his Bloodname.[1]

History[edit]

Possessing a "devil's luck," Darryl sparked a Melee during his Trial of Position. Whether on purpose or happenstance, all three opponents quickly boxed in the hopeful cadet. He survived several minutes of attacks, including his cockpit ripped open by an AC/10 hit, until a laser shot of his fused one opponent's gyro. Gaining his position as a warrior, he went on an improbable winning streak, seemingly due to multiple "freak incidents." Examples included a lodged gauss rifle slug absorbing what was likely a lethal laser hit to his torso and multiple opponents suffering technical problems with their machines. This was despite Darryl's own inability to hit with more than half of his own missiles, no matter the distance or skill required.[1]
