History[edit]
Franz received his training in the Sanglamore Military Academy on Skye, where the aspiring MechWarrior failed his MechWarrior MOS twice.[1][2] Not long after graduation, he was assigned to Stone's Lament's Recon Squad Four in June 3076, replacing one of the soldiers who died defending a House Hogarth summer home on Hesperus II.[1]
In 3076, Recon Squad Four was deployed to Rochelle to scout out a Word of Blake installation and, if necessary, disable it.[3] En route, Franz lived out his dream of piloting a BattleMech, hijacking a Blakist Griffin to rescue his squad from a Malak. He struggled in battle, rarely landing a hit as his opponent battered away at him, but a lucky fall of a yorkwood tree downed his opponent and gave Franz victory.[4] The rookie kept the Griffin's BattleROM as a souvenir.[5]
The squad reached its destination, a warehouse Luella Hildebrand identified as a tracking center for a Space Defense System, on 11 July. There, the team engaged and defeated Manei Domini cyborgs, losing Busby Matvey in the process. In the same battle, Franz suffered serious injuries.[6] Luella soon fired on the tracking center's systems, overloading the SDS's power grid and disabling the defense system for the arrival of Stone's forces.[2]
Due to Grace Luther's quick treatment, Franz recovered well from his injuries, just in time for a new mission to be assigned on 17 July: to help deal with a Blakist-backed corporation in Rochelle's capital that refused to disarm.[2]
BattleMechs[edit]
For a short moment in the Rochelle SDS raid, Franz piloted a stolen Griffin.[4]
