Samson Furey was a Clan Smoke Jaguar Star Captain turned abtakha Wolf's Dragoons mercenary.[1]

History

Until the Battle of Luthien, Samson had been on the rise in Clan Smoke Jaguar. He earned his bloodname at age 26, and he had reached the rank of Star Captain. At Luthien, he was captured by Wolf's Dragoons and was made a bondsman, and by 3057 he was a Lieutenant in the mercenary company.[1]

Samson fought on Coventry in April 3058 as part of the third lance of the Baker Company in the Dragoons' Delta Regiment, engaging Clan Jade Falcon forces.[1]

During the Word of Blake Jihad, the by then Major Furey led a battalion resisting the occupation of Outreach, dying during the extraction of his unit by a relief force comprised of Dragoon and Clan Wolf-in-Exile personnel in March 3068.[2]

BattleMechs

By 3058, for the Dragoons, Samson piloted a Black Hawk, custom-modified from the Alpha configuration. Anti-missile systems were replaced with heat sinks, and instead of a medium pulse laser, the 'Mech used two extended range medium lasers.[1] He continued to pilot a Black Hawk until his last engagement on Outreach in 3068.[2]
