Riss was a ''Trueborn'' of Clan Jade Falcon and had served ''touman'' and due to his advanced age was left behind. Riss was fanatical follower of Hazen's [[Mongol Doctrine]]. Reaching the rank of Star Colonel, Riss never won a [[Bloodname]]. In [[3150]], when Malvina Hazen took the majority of her touman to [[Terra]], however Riss stayed behind to secure [[Arc-Royal]].

Riss was a ''Trueborn'' of Clan Jade Falcon, which served a long time into their ''touman'', becoming a fanatical follower of hazen's [[Mongol Doctrine]]. Of advanced age, though reaching the rank of Star Colonel, never obtained a [[Bloodname]], and in [[3150]], when Malvina Hazen took almost all her touman to [[Terra]], he stay behind, at the command of [[Arc-Royal]].
  
Sometime in [[3151]], Riss had received news of Hazen's defeat and his Clan's annihilation in the [[IlClan Trial]] on Terra. Riss hid the outcome from his forces on Arc-Royal, pretending than she was alive. Riss developed a plan to win the favor of the new [[IlKhan]], [[Alaric Ward]]. However this was thwarted when [[Callandre Kell]] and her [[Kell Hounds]] arrived in system and despite being in reduced numbers, began taking the falcon's positions systematically.<ref>''Tamar Rising'', pp. 34–35</ref>

Sometime in [[3151]], he received news of Hazen's defeat and his Clan's annihilation in the [[IlClan Trial]], but apparently hid it to his men, pretending than she was alive. It appears than he developed great ambitions to win the favor of the new [[IlKhan]], [[Alaric Ward]], but these were cut down by [[Callandre Kell]] and her [[Kell Hounds]], which arrived at system and, despite being in reduced numbers, began taking the falcon's positions, one after other.<ref>''Tamar Rising'', pp. 34–35</ref>
  
The [[Battle of Arc-Royal (3151)]] quickly turning against the Falcons. Riss ordered all surviving Jade Falcon garrison forces to move to the capital, ''Old Connaught''. Expecting to force Kell to leave the planet, Riss ordered mass executions of 1,000 civilians a day from the city. This only enraged the Hounds. The next day the Kell Hounds attacked Old Connaught with all what they had.<ref>''Tamar Rising'', p. 37</ref>

The [[Battle of Arc-Royal (3151)]] was quickly turning against the Falcons, so Riss ordered all surviving garrison forces to gather at the capital, ''Old Connaught''. But not only that: expecting to force Kell to leave the planet, he ordered the mass execution of 1,000 civilians from the city. But that only enraged the Hounds, which the next day were attacking Old Connaught with all what they had.<ref>''Tamar Rising'', p. 37</ref>
  
Callandre crashed a Broadsword class DropShip to cripple the core of the Falcon's defensive line and led the charge against the survivors. Callandre not only faced off against the Jade Falcon warriors on the battlefield but also broadcasted to Riss' forces than Malvina Hazen was dead, Clan Wolf was the [[IlClan]], and than the Flacons had been annihilated on Terra. A furious Riss engaged Callendre which his ''Hunchback IIC'', insulting her, and attempting to minimize the damage. To no avail: the bulk of the Jade Falcon forces ceased fighting. Despite being outnumbered and better weaponry, the Callandere's tank was able to avoid Riss' fire, and disabled his 'Mech. Riss being wounded, and his 'Mech crippled, refused to surrender. Riss was attempting to descend from his 'Mech when Callandre ordered an artillery strike on Riss' position. Two missiles destroyed his 'Mech and incinerated him.

Callandre used a crashing [[DropShip]] to cripple the core of the Falcon's lines, and later led the charge against the survivors. But she not only faced his warriors in the battlefield: also tell Riss' men than Malvina Hazen was dead, Clan Wolf was the [[IlClan]], and than the Flacons have been annihilated on Terra. A furious Riss engaged her in his ''Hunchback IIC'', insulting her, attempting to minimize the damage she caused with her words, but to no avail: the bulk of his men ceased fighting. Despite being superior in weaponry and armor, the tank avoided Riss' fire, and downed his 'Mech. Riss was wounded, and his 'Mech crippled, but he refused to surrender: he was attempting to descend from his 'Mech when Callandre ordered an artillery attack over Riss' position. Two missiles blowed his 'Mech and incinerated him.  
  
Riss' death put an end to the battle and the rest of the Jade Falcons conceded defeat, abandoning Arc-Royal, leaving it in Callandre's and the Kell Hounds possession.<ref>''Tamar Rising'', p. 12</ref>
