System: Damian

[3050] Clan Ghost Bear landed on Damian in March 3050, and had high hopes of finishing off the defenders in short order, but after six days of fruitless searching they decided that the Black Omen mercenary company must have left before the Bears arrived. The Ghost Bears left a small garrison on the planet, and then moved on. Two months later, the Black Omens came out of hiding and overran the garrison forcing the Bears to retake the planet during the second wave of the invasion.

The Black Omen's "treachery," as the Ghost Bears see it, accounts for much of that Clan's well-known hatred of mercenaries.

Grabbing what salvage they could, the Omen sent out a distress signal and finally escaped when DCMS forces landed. However, their “treachery” in hiding from battle only to strike at inferior forces later is said to have sparked much of the Ghost Bears’ intense hatred toward mercenaries, which remains to this day.

[3063] During the Ghost Bear invasion, Captain Smith – now commander of the infamous Black Omen mercenaries - jumped at the opportunity to gain some retribution against their old enemies. In keeping with their contract, they used their creative control in selecting targets and employing tactics. From Wolcott, the Omen secretly penetrated the Dominion and waged a McCarron’s-style campaign against the worlds of Pinnacle, Holmsbu, and Thule, disabling each planet’s HPG and destroying munitions depots along the way.

The Black Omen struck at Damien where they once again overran a small garrison unit. This time, however, Captain Smith destroyed the Bear’s military depots and repair facilities as well, and captured as much booty as the Omen could carry. For their final act, Captain Smith unfurled a large flag with the Omen’s crest over the capital, leaving the Bears their calling card.
