History[edit]

Edwina Forrest was the commanding officer of the Black Omen in 3050.[1][2]

She led the unit during its trial on Damian and Memmingen against Clan forces. Forrest was made overall commander of both units (the Black Omen and the Black Outlaws) on Ueda. Forrest chose to remain in command of the Black Outlaws, allowing those originally under her command to leave if they so chose.[1][2]

She commanded the Black Outlaws from 3051 to 3067.[3]

On Ueda, the new mercenary unit would spend four years rebuilding from their losses against the Clans. It was during this period that the Outlaws renamed themselves to the Black Outlaws.[3]

Major Forrest used these four years to restructure and reorganize the Black Outlaws, shifting the mercenary unit from a conventional battalion formation into a Clan-style Cluster instead, augmented by a command lance. The Black Outlaws would continue to use this new structure until at least 3067, when the command accepted a contract from ComStar and transferred to Tukayyid.[3]
