Overview:
Joshua Taylor considered himself one of the lucky ones, he was still alive. Sure billions, even trillions of people were still living, but if you were with the Crater Cobras when they made their approach to Nanking and were still around to talk about, then you were one of the lucky ones. He had spent eight years with the Cobras and had lost too many friends over Nanking to continue staying with the unit. When Colonel Burr and the Black Cobras went to Outreach, he went with them. However, once there, he in turn severed his ties with the Black Cobras. He spent the better part of the next year drinking his savings away, and trying to find work. In early 3059 salvation came to him, wearing a coyote’s grin.
Camacho’s Caballeros was now a unit that had more ‘Mechs than it had pilots to put in them and they had come to Outreach looking to solve this problem. Joshua was desperate for a job and a way off of Outreach to get away from his debt collectors and his past. Reluctantly, the recruiting officer for the Caballeros took him on, mainly due to his excellent service record and his qualification scores.
He, like many, was considered an outsider and it took a long time to integrate with unit, especially with his recent problematic past. One of the many traditions in the unit is to have unique call signs for each ‘Mech pilot. Joshua was to be no different with one minor exception. His was not chosen by him, it was chosen for him. After one too many occasions of public drunkenness, one of his comrades dubbed him ‘Three Sheets’, since he was always ‘three sheets to the wind’. This was a sign to him, the way people saw him and he decided to quit drinking and succeeded, However, no matter how hard he tried, he could get people to stop calling him ‘Three Sheets’ and the nickname stuck.
During the Ghost Bear War, he lost his Jenner on Luzerne, while serving under Force Commander Bar-Kochba. The unit was nearly destroyed to the man, but Joshua had once again escaped death. His Jenner had made it to the DropShips, but it was a total wreck and was later scrapped. Having lost their lone Raven pilot and most of his ‘Mech on Luzerne, the Caballeros pulled a damaged Wolf Trap out of their salvage yard and rebuilt it with the Raven’s surviving electronics. In place of the now missing autocannon, the Wolf Trap carries a Large Pulse Laser and Medium Laser. The Raven’s surviving TAG and Beagle Active Probe are teamed with a new Matabushi Guardian ECM unit, donated by Tanadi Computers. Double heat sinks were swapped in and a ton of armor was added as well. After the Wolf Trap, now dubbed the Raven Wolf by ‘Three Sheets‘, became operational it was assigned to the same lance as the Caballeros two O-Bakemonos, where it currently serves as their spotter.
