The Spirit of Helios by RebelliousWaffle

Summary

During Operation: TOUCHDOWN, an unknown party began aiding SLDF forces seemingly of their own will. Equipped with a customized variant of a Timber Wolf equipped with an advanced Void Stealth System, this unknown party only identified themselves as "Spirit", supplying the SLDF with extensive intelligence on Word of Blake forces on Helios. Their true name, affiliation, skills and motive are all widely debated among historians; however, MechWarrior legend continues to insist that the Spirit of Helios acted to ensure the safety of Lady Savannah Cameron, last heir of House Cameron. Stories that she was a paramour of the last Cameron are likely exaggerated.
