MY D34D NAME WAS EMPEROR

Empire Rise, Empire Fall, Empire Lives to Know it All. Without Faith, There is no Light, Eternal Reign in the Endless Night In Punjabi culture, grandiose masculine names are thought to be auspicious. My d34d name was Emperor. Now however, the Emperor has no name. Since transition I've been trying to think of a more fitting one, but it still evades me. You can use my handle to refer to me until I pick a new one I guess, or just call me "you". This is not an invitation for anyone to guess what that name was. I chose to leave it behind for a reason. Somehow that name just gave the image of conquest, dominance and power in a way that I don't think represents me. Luckily there's a bunch of names that all translate to the same thing.

Name: Meteor Jockey

Base Model: CN9-D9

Stable: Steelheart Collective

Primary Pilot: Thera Austlar

Primary Circuit: Class III

A skirmisher/striker mech, Meteor Jockey was built by the Steelheart Collective Stables in 3148 with bith advanced Inner Sphere and Clan technology. Armed with a capacitor-enhanced snub-nosed PPC, an engine supercharger, shield, and advanced clan laser tech, Meteor Jockey leverages its speed to stay at range and slowly whittle down its opponents with long range shots before aggressively closing to deliver brutal finishers with its signature 'Misericorde' of heavy lasers. Jockey's pilot, Thera Austlar, rose to notoriety after she defeated two time Class III Circuit champion Tharkad Blues by ripping off her own mech's damaged right arm and purposely rupturing the PPC capacitors as a makeshift explosive weapon.

Every* Type of Mecha

*Not Actually Every Type.

Something I spent WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too much time on lol. This is entirely just riffing off of the many 'kinds' or 'tropes' in mecha design I found. Feel free to suggest more of them.

Might make a document providing examples for each one, but idk. I think most of these are pretty self-explanatory.
