As soon as she was old enough she started helping out with repairs to the [[IndustrialMechs]], later progressing to piloting them. In [[2960]], a band of pirates from the [[Tortuga Dominions]] stumbled across the colony and conducted a raid.<ref name=HB:MPSp5-9/> ===Grey Lady=== Once MacCaulay was old enough she would leave Tumbleweed and travel to [[Illyria]] the capital world of the [[Illyrian Palatinate]] where she became the tech for local arena fighter [[Ty Falco]]. In [[2970]], Falco lost his nerve and backed out of a deathmatch, offering MacCaulay ownership of his 'Mech ''Grey Lady'' if she would take his place in the match. she accepted and managed to knock her opponent's engine out more through blind luck than skill.<ref name=HB:MPSp5-9/> ===Militia and Mercenary Service=== First joining the Illyrian Militia for a few years until she became bored, Temper would become a mercenary and see service with [[Interstellar Expeditions]], the [[Far-Lookers]], and the [[Lothian League]], even joining [[Arms of Thor]]. Eventually in [[3026]], she ended up working with Lostech prospector [[Lyle Steadman]] searching for [[Star League]] facilities.<ref name=HB:MPSp5-9/> ===Retirement=== MacCaulay eventually retired to [[Luxen]] where she would live to become the oldest "[[Errant MechWarrior|Errant]]" in the Periphery at over 120 years old.<ref name=HB:MPSp5-9/> ==BattleMech== MacCaulay piloted a ''[[Centurion (BattleMech)|Centurion]]'' from 2970 until her contract with Steadman, some time after the [[Fourth Succession War]]. Afterward she sold "Gray Lady" and purchased an unknown upgraded 'Mech which she named "Lady Day". ==Notes== *MacCaulay's BattleMech is not explicitly stated in the short story to be a ''Centurion'', however, the illustration within the story shows her working on a ''Centurion'' with "Gray Lady" painted on the side of the cockpit. ==References== <references /> ==Bibliography== * ''[[Handbook: Major Periphery States]]'' [[Category:Mercenary Characters|MacCaulay, Temperance]]
