'''Kellen Taylor''' was the commander of the reconnaissance [[company]] of the [[Fifth Sword of Light]] during the [[Dark Age Era]].<ref name=45DCp32b/>

==History==
''[[Tai-i]]'' Taylor was one of the youngest company commanders in the Fifth Sword of Light, having attained his position by single-handedly eliminating a [[Federated Suns]]' ''[[Thunderbolt]]'' after his commanding officer was killed during the [[Palmyra Debacle]]. This display of skill epitomized the Fifth Sword's [[bushido]] philosophy but marked Taylor as a priority target for Federated Suns forces all along the [[Draconis Combine]]'s border.<ref name=45DCp32b/>

During the Fifth Sword's invasion of [[Gambier]], Taylor lead two [[lances]] of [[BattleMechs]] against the planetary militia. After catching a militia detachment in the open, the speed of Taylor's 'Mechs and the strength of their supporting ''[[Dragon II]]'' [[artillery]] 'Mechs gave the Combine forces the edge over the defending [[House Davion|Davions]]. The Fifth Sworders immediately disabled two [[Sortek]] [[hovercraft]] with their armor-piercing munitions and the terrified militiamen, seemingly unable to damage the encroaching Combine 'Mechs, risked routing even before Taylor's men made direct contact. Once Taylor decapitated the militia commander's ''[[Enforcer]]'' with his [[Sword (weapon)|sword]], the militia broke and ran. In under an hour of fighting, Gambier was under the control of the Draconis Combine.<ref name=45DCp32a>''Technical Readout: 3145 Draconis Combine'', p. 32: "RK-4T Rokurokubi - Deployment"</ref><ref name=TRO45p104>''Technical Readout: 3145'', p. 104: "RK-4T Rokurokubi - Deployment"</ref>
