Colonel Jerico Marsden was the commander of the Twenty-fifth Heavy Assault Regiment, with the Lyran Commonwealth, at the start of the First Succession War.[1]
History
Considered one of last descendants of Alistair Marsden, Jerico Marsden and the Twenty-fifth Heavy Assault Regiment were based on Trolloc Prime, as of 2786. When the [[Draconis Combine] invaded, Marsden and his unit became of one of the first casualties of the First Succession War, after they disobeyed an order to retreat and made a last stand outside of the planetary capital city. Holding fast for a week, which allowed other Lyran forces to withdraw off-world, they were eventually destroyed.
Following these events, a legend grew up around the lost unit, which told of ghostly MechWarriors from the Twenty-fifth appearing as good luck omens to Lyran units before missions against Combine opponents.[1]
