Angelina Emillian
From StarCraft Wiki
- "Listen, Mengsk, the core worlds depend on the minerals and fuels extracted from mines like this, so do you really want us to be beholden to Kel-Morian criminals? Sonyan is part of the Confederacy now, and anything on it belongs to the Confederacy. And the Marine Corps will fight to protect our way of life. You get that?"

[edit] Biography
Captain Emillian first met Arcturus Mengsk at Styrling Academy. She had read the classified files of the students who would graduate that year, including Mengsk, giving her an understanding of his psychology. She persuaded him to join the Confederate Marine Corps, suggesting he would gain experience with miners and had only a 50% chance of seeing combat. Both statements were technically truthful. Mengsk joined the Confederate Marine Corps when he came of age.[1]
Emillian picked up a scar while visiting Chau Sara. Her troops were to pick up prisoners for converting into neurally resocialized troops, but a prison riot broke out. During the battle, one prisoner stole a guard's weapon and shot her in the helmet, grazing her head. She fainted and fell to the ground, and the prisoner assumed she died. Emillian recovered and killed the prisoner by breaking his neck.[1]
[edit] Training a Rebel
- "I know you mean what you say, but you don't always say what you think. You keep almost everything of what goes on inside you close to your chest, and you don't let anyone see what you're thinking unless you want them to. And right then, you wanted Baden to know what you're thinking."
- ―Captain Angelina Emillian debriefs Lieutenant Mengsk.[src]
Arcturus Mengsk became part of the 33rd Ground Assault Division. As a lieutenant, he was put in charge of "Dominion section", a group of six marines. They were the only non-resocialized soldiers in Emillian's company.
Emillian and Mengsk were assigned to evict Kel-Morian Combine-associated miners from the Turanga Valley, Sonyan and keep their "illegal" deep-core mining facility intact. The miners had many mercenaries and were equipped with goliaths and missile turrets ... and were there first. However, the Confederacy kept this piece of information hidden.
The dropship carrying the troops and a siege tank was shot down, injuring many of the resocialized marines and knocking Emillian out along with breaking her back. Mengsk had to carry out the mission without supervision. His tactics involved sending the resocialized marines to draw enemy fire while his Dominion section sneaked up on the mercenaries and ambushed them. Most of the resocialized troopers were killed in the battle. Afterward, he told the miners to leave or he would attack them with a siege tank. He wasn't bluffing. The miners surrendered, but gave him papers indicating their claim was legal.
Afterward, she debriefed Mengsk from her hospital bed. She was disappointed in the loss of the marines, and was upset that he risked destroying the facility against Confederate orders. Mengsk told her the facility had been legal; Emillian, however, was determined to steal it in order to protect the Confederate way of life and avoid being beholden to the Kel-Morians.
She worried that Mengsk would turn out like his father, as well as any children he might have. She told him she expected him to play his part as a "cog in the machine" like she did. Mengsk was able to convince her the she had quashed his doubts. Nonetheless her fears proved prescient.[1]
[edit] Revenge

- ―Angelina Emillian to Samir Duran, preparing for combat against the Dominion.[src]
Approximately six months after the inauguration of the Terran Dominion, Angelina Emillian was preparing for a mission aboard a barely spaceworthy vessel. She was now part of the Confederate Resistance Forces, which had just made an alliance with an outside party and had access to secret Dominion information, such as the travel schedule of Arcturus Mengsk. She wanted revenge on Mengsk.
Taking her leave of fellow soldier Samir Duran–who had told her she was "better" than Mengsk–she led approximately thirty marines against Mengsk's current location, the house of Umojan ambassador Ailin Pasteur. Mengsk had only brought a few troops with him, due to current diplomatic difficulties with the Umojan government.
Arcturus Mengsk, his son Valerian (now a young man) and war instructor Master Miyamoto took shelter in a wrecked gun cutter. They were heavily outnumbered.
Emillian pursued them, catching up to Valerian and Miyamoto. She shot the latter from behind and confronted the former. She had the combat advantage, but Miyamoto wasn't quite dead yet. With the last of his strength, he disabled her rifle, giving Valerian time to shoot her down. As she lay dying, her former pupil confronted her. She told him that her death didn't matter, because "the UED are going to clean your clock but good". Arcturus yelled at her to tell him who the UED were, but by then, she was dead.[1]
