Description
The "Stitch" is a FS9-H belonging to Mechwarrior Hamish Jones, a recon pilot for Snord's Irregulars. Like most of the unit, Hamish has a fetish for ancient media and artifacts, and is something of a specialist in 20th century animation, particularly a devotee of one Walt Disney. The unusual paint job on his Firestarter came about as a suggestion from his daughter, Abby, who he shared his collection of cartoons with. After each mission, they would repaint the "Stitch" together, as Abby was convinced that by doing so it would ensure her daddy would return OK. Sadly, Abby and her mother were visiting relatives on Sudeten in late 3050, when Clan Jade Falcon arrived. It has been confirmed that both were killed during the invasion. Since then, Mechwarrior Jones has maintained the tradition, but instead of recon, has made it his mission to use his flamers to burn alive every single Clanner he meets. The cartoonish image of his Firestarter has been the last thing many Clan Warriors have seen before their agonizing deaths.
