Custom mech "The Vampire"
You know , even in the year 3132 old legends are very hard to put away in these "Dark Ages".

They say he was once just an ordinary man, someone like you or me. Known across the old Inner Sphere as a mech pilot of legendary fighting abilities.

He vowed everlasting revenge against the forces that took his wife and children from him all those many years ago.

They say he was a high born Noble, leaving his beloved military, he became a mercenary, then a highly paid assassin, all the while hunting those he felt responsible.

They say he has died many deaths across untold planets, yet rumors still abound with sightings of him.

Some say he has to be well over 100 years old, yet it's said he looks and walks like a man in his prime. He has become a deadly silent creature of the night and has taken the name of "Vampire" from an even older myth.
