Jiri Rousset was a MerchWarrior with the mercenary unit Langendorf Lancers. There he met Kristen Marik, who joined the Lancers using the alias "Kristen Markus". In 3031, Kristen gave birth to their first child, Ana.[2]
Kristen's Krushers
Following the death of Kristen's father,Janos Marik, Kristen used her inheritance to form her own mercenary unit, Kristen's Krushers. Jiri and a number of warriors from the Lancers joined the Krushers. Some time after the formation of the Lancers, Jiri and Kristen were married. They had two more children, Janos and Alys.[2]
By 3059, Jiri held the rank of Major and served as the executive officer of the Krushers.[2]
FedCom Civil War
By 3062, Jiri and the Krushers were under contract with the Lyran Alliance, stationed on the world of Coventry. In December, conflict erupted between the Coventry CPM and the Alliance Jaegers with the death of Arthur Steiner-Davion. The commander of the Jaegers, Jason Walker, ordered the Krushers to attack full-on into Port Lawrence's Coventry Militia Academy, taking heavy damage. Colonel Kristen Marik protested the brutality of the Alliance's assault, which included an artillery barrage. After the fighting ended, Colonel Marik requested time for the Krushers to rest and refit. Walker took this as an opportunity to attack the Krushers, citing them for "evidence of complicity with the traitors" during the battle against the Coventry CPM.[3]
Jiri's daughter, Major Ana Marik, commander of the Third Battalion, died holding off Jaeger forces long enough for her men to escape. Kristen led her people to their DropShips and left the planet, communicating that the Jaeger attack voided their contract with the Lyran Alliance.[3]
In March 3063, Kristen led the Krushers in a raid against Gallery for supplies. However, the world's ruler, Nondi Steiner was not pleased with this. She labelled the mercenary unit hostile and ordered her forces to take measures against them when they could.[4]During the Krushers' retreat through Lyran space, his son Janos was killed.[1]
Kristen had led her people to Arcadia, where her unit faced an impressive Aerospace force, led by the Mjolnir-class Battlecruiser, LAS Yggdrasil. The enemy aerospace power forced her to scatter landing sites on Arcadia, where the split up mercenary unit faced the 2nd Donegal Guards. Kristen led her force in a desperate fight for survival, leaving only 2 operational companies by April.[4]
However, the balance of power changed as the 6th Marik Militia arrived on planet under escort by a Thera-Class Supercarrier battlegroup clearing the skies of hostiles. In the last hours of fighting with the 2nd Donegal, Kristen was wounded, and died on a medievac ship.[4]
Later Life
Jiri's only surviving daughter, Alys, inherited command of the Krushers as well as the title of Duchess of Augustine. Due to her lack of experience, Alys left the day-to-day running of the Krushers to Jiri (now holding the rank of Colonel) while she attended to her duties as Duchess. Alys also began agitating politically against her "uncle" "Thomas Marik. By 3067, the Krushers were stationed on Augustine and had rebuilt to battalion strength with the goal of restoring the unit to regimental strength.[1]
