# Asajj Ventress
## Overview
Asajj Ventress, [Dooku’s](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/count-dooku "Count Dooku") apprentice and favoured personal assassin, is a senior Separatist Commander and a skilled force-sensitive. Whether she is leading armies or fleets in her official title as “Supreme Leader”, or conducting highly sensitive missions with Separatist Intelligence to target the Republic’s most critical assets, her arrival on a battlefield always signifies much death and destruction for the Republic.
Being trained under a duelist as skilled as Count Dooku has its perks. Ventress carries two curved lightsabers and can hold her own against most Jedi. Interestingly, the lightsabers she carries belonged to Dooku’s last Padawan, who had turned to the darkside herself before being eliminated.
However, Ventress’ true prowess is as an assassin. Her ability to suddenly appear behind enemy lines, or on battlefields thought to be mostly secure, to then wreak havoc in the Republic’s backlines. Additionally, she is often seen being deployed in boarding parties in Space Battles, sometimes even taking a Drop Pod.
Unlike her master, Ventress has no issue with targeting just clones and fighting in a dishonorable way. While she has an interest in fighting and killing Jedi, whenever she is deployed, she lays a wake of bodies in her path.
## Early Life
Due to the fact that she has never been captured, has no history in any of the Republic’s institutions, and she works directly under Dooku rather than with the rest of the Separatist High Command, not much information is known about Ventress.

## Story
#### First Appearance - [The Siege of Carida](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-siege-of-carida "The Siege of Carida")
Ventress’ first appearance in the Clone Wars seems to be during the Separatist Invasion of Carida. In which she appeared without warning, cutting down squads of Clones and preventing Jedi from stopping the Droids from capturing key areas on the ground.
For the Republic, the rest of the invasion, the Republic Commanders on the ground had to plan all operations around the fact that a psychotic force-sensitive killer was on the ground. It is also believed that the presence of Ventress prompted the Jedi Order to send almost all of their combat trained Jedi to Carida. Which, while strategically questionable, could still have been considered by the Order as a reasonable response as the last time a Sith appeared, a skilled Jedi Master was killed.
However, what the Republic reinforcements and the Jedi did not expect was that Ventress would meet them in space. During the second space battle over Carida, Ventress boarded the Republic Venator “Invictus” and destroyed key reactors, forcing it to explode. During this boarding, she met and fought Jedi Master Mace Windu and managed to slice off his arm.
Ventress would then leave on a stolen Republic fighter, leaving no trace to her next location.

#### Surprise Attack on a Jedi Temple - [The Invasion of Corellia](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-invasion-of-corellia "The Invasion of Corellia")
Ventress’ next appearance would be during the Separatist Invasion of Corellia. Once again appearing with a warning, she led her Droid forces to the Jedi Temple on Corellia. However, facing multiple Jedi on their home turf, she was pushed back and forced to retreat.
Ventress’ latest appearance in the Clone Wars would be during the Invasion of Christopsis. Asajj Ventress led a surprise attack on the Republic Fleet above Christopsis and boarded a Venator herself yet again. This time, however, the Jedi were prepared and quickly led a response to counter her. While she succeeded in taking out many Clones, she was pushed back and forced to retreat before she was able to take out the Venator.

This time however, the Jedi were prepared, and quickly led a response to counter her. While she succeeded in taking out many Clones, she was pushed back and force to retreat before she was able to take out the Venator.
While most Republic Commanders assume Ventress is currently on Ryloth, it would be pointless to try and guess where this assassin will strike next.

# Capo Orion Krim
## Overview
**Orion Krim** is a notorious **Pyke Syndicate Capo**, and the leader, recruiter, and trainer of the Pyke Syndicate’s feared **Sentinels**. The flexibility and skill of his Sentinels makes them ideal enforcers for Separatist leaders to deploy when their droid forces are found lacking, the Sentinels alongside their leader have been placed on an expensive retainer by the Confederacy.
Unlike other Separatist Commanders, Orion’s background doesn’t consist of planetary military service and naval academies. But rather a decade spent managing the spice trade and conducting gang wars against the many criminal factions in the galaxy has resulted in Orion becoming a rather opportunistic and ruthless figure, who now has the backing of one the Galaxy’s largest powers.
Due to his connections from a life spent as a major player in the **Galactic Underworld**, it is likely that any engagement with this Separatist Commander will include hired criminals and mercenaries alongside the Droids that have been placed under him. Resulting in a unique tactical challenge for the Republic Commanders who are forced to engage him.
## Early Life
Orion, like most within the Pyke Syndicate, was born and raised on **Oba Diah**, the Pyke Homeworld. As is the case with almost all of the Pyke species, he was brought into their syndicate from a young age. Orion in particular seemed to have impressed someone high enough in the organisation to recommend him to join the Pyke’s Sentinels, who at the time were used as enforcers for the Pyke’s operations in **Kessel**.
Throughout his service in the Sentinels he climbed their ranks, eventually becoming their commander. Recognising that the highly trained enforcers were being underused he petitioned the leaders of the Syndicate to expand the scope of the Sentinels. This change would see them changed into a more mercenary-like group, handling jobs for the Syndicate and any other client that would pay for their service.
The Reputation of the Orion and the Sentinel’s had grown to the point where the **Confederacy** was interested in purchasing their services. Rumors from those who are known to frequent Tatooine's underworld is that High Admiral Pax played a crucial role in the recruitment of Orion. Coming from Tatootine himself, he was able to reach out to Orion through some mutual contacts. For Orion the promise of great wealth and access to the Separatist's resources was more than enough to convince him to agree to lend his services to the Confederacy.

## Pyke Sentinels
While Orion has not been spotted in any theatre of war yet, the Pyke Sentinel’s have made their appearance in both Christophsis and Rhen Varr. Acting as escorts to Separatist Leaders and being deployed alongside droid forces to fight off against Republic attacks. They have started to gain a reputation amongst the Republic Military for the unpredictability and flexibility they allow the Separatist forces to have when deployed with large amounts of Droids.
While most of the Sentinel's are found using the same military grade blasters - supplied by the Confederacy - owing to their criminal background, they can be found using a variety of equipment. One such example is a Pyke Sentinel who was seen using a lightsaber pike during the Republic invasion of Christophsis.

## Known Appearances
While there have been no confirmed sightings of Orion Krim in the Clone Wars so far, it can be assumed that he is operating somewhere in Sector 10, due to the numerous sightings of his forces in that Galactic Sector.
# Captain Jado Felis
## Overview
Operating under the Separatists as a Captain, Jado Felis serves as a covert intelligence asset who specializes in infiltration, counterintelligence, and black-market logistics.
He is currently tasked with undermining the Galactic Republic through indirect warfare, disrupting supply chains, infiltrating Republic controlled worlds, and extracting sensitive intelligence from both military and political targets. His operations frequently take place in contested systems and urban underworlds, where he leverages criminal networks, slicers and informants to maintain an constant flow of information to the Separatist cause.
## Early Life
Born on the planet of Tatooine, at the far edges of Mos Entha, Jado grew up in a poor family that struggled to make ends meet, especially with the Hutt clan operating in the town and enforcing their heavy taxes. Scavenging scraps from any crashed freighters, doing small jobs for smugglers and dodging tax collectors became the norm for Jado. The constant flow of gangsters, bounty hunters, and shady merchants from many sectors passing through Mos Entha taught that Jado needed to survive in this harsh galaxy. He learned how to bargain, lie, pick locks, and how to disappear completely even when trouble came for him.
By his late teens, Jado had befriended a Lieutenant of a smaller lesser known criminal gang whose name was “Gar Rendas”. Gar had seen great potential in Jado after he successfully stole a crate of volatile Rhydonium, and surprised that Jado didn’t blow up an entire block he decided to take Jado under his wing. Jado, now under Gar’s strict and rough mentorship, taught him the arts of stealth, infiltration, espionage and leadership. He learned how to blend in crowds, read people’s intentions, and extract information.
Unfortunately during a botched spice run, Gar Rendas was betrayed and executed by his own gang. Jado barely escaped with his life. This experience changed Jado’s view on everything, he realized that no matter how skilled, or great he became, working under someone else’s banner would eventually get him killed. So he decided to leave Tatooine and work on his own as a freelance infiltrator, taking dangerous jobs across the Outer Rim, taking jobs such as slicing databases, eliminating rival syndicates or slipping past security.
Later on, Jado took on a contract, where he was to deliver recovered republic equipment to the CIS. Operating deep within the lower levels of Coruscant, Jado had organized a network of desperate civilians and scavengers, and had them recover small quantities of Republic weaponry to avoid detection from Republic logistics. Jado handled all the smuggling routes and shifted drop points to stay clear of any Republic patrols. When the Coruscant Guard started closing in on the operation, Jado orchestrated a clean getaway, wiping any slicer logs and disappearing before CG could arrive. Despite several arrests on this matter, the Republic never uncovered Jado's involvement. The recovered equipment also ultimately made it to the Separatists hands, strengthening their army.
Impressed by Jado’s skills and his disgust to Republic corruption, which had reminded him of the Hutts back home, the CIS offered him commission. Jado decided to accept this offer but not because of loyalty and his agreement to the Separatist cause, but because it provided Jado the resources and protection from old enemies, and to eliminate anyone who wanted to prey on the weak. Showcasing his expertise in stealth and espionage, Jado became invaluable to the Separatists. He quickly rose through the ranks of CIS ultimately becoming a Captain in the CIS Army.
## Abilities
Jado is deeply paranoid and quick to anger, shaped by experiencing the betrayal of his mentor "Gar Rendas" gang that executed him. And under the belief that no matter how skilled, or great he became, working under someone else’s banner would eventually get him killed. He trusts no one and constantly expects to be betrayed or abandoned.
# Captain Kerluv Fes
## Overview
Captain Kerluv Fes is a Separatist naval officer currently serving as Commanding officer of the Providence Class vessel the "Odveta" along with a Separatist naval strike force group operating in the Corellia System. He is known for his vicious, unforgiving, and direct attitude for Naval Warfare along with the infamous events of the Juiris - 5 Massacre.
## Early Life
Orthoranum "Kerluv" Fes hails from the picturesque core world of Chandrila, one of the founding worlds of the Galactic Republic. He was born into the minor noble family of House Fes, an ancient rival to the Mothma clan which had entered obscurity in the past few centuries. His father, an officer in the Republic Judicial Fleet, placed him in a prestigious naval academy on Corellia shortly before his assassination at the hands of pirates in the Outer Rim. There, he excelled at naval tactics and became first in his class due to his robust knowledge of fleet on fleet warfare along with brutal sabotage of his classmates. Hated by much of his fellow cadets, he established his own clique of a few loyal students at the academy who would sabotage rivals and report to him on the every doings of the student body. As a result of his excellent grades and proficient skill, he was immediately commissioned with the Captaincy of a light judicial craft upon graduation rather than made a staff or training officer.
## Military Career
In the years leading up the clone wars, Lieutenant Commander Fes assisted in Outer Rim Security and diplomatic missions, becoming renowned as a welcome exception to the rule in a Judicial Fleet plagued by corruption. Shortly before the start of the Clone wars, as his vessel was docked at a small Outer Rim Outpost, he was contacted by a regretful member of the pirate band which had killed his father. Rather than an attempted heist gone wrong on a valuable Judicial Fleet Cargo Transport, his father's death was in reality a paid assassination by a rival Chandrilan house! Evidence was provided to him of an entire conspiracy approved by members of Chandrilan aristocracy and the Judicial Fleet command to kill his father and later Orthoranum to seize their valuable ancient estates, finally extinguishing the despised House Fes. Given a list of names of fellow conspirators in the Judicial Fleet, Captain Fes invited sixteen of them of them (including Judicial Fleet Vice Admiral Borsa) to Outpost Juiris - 5 for a meeting regarding the expansion of Outer Rim piracy. The outpost was filled with over two hundred requisitioned Thermal Detonators and completely destroyed upon the group's arrival. With a paper trail of evidence on him for the murder of Judicial Fleet officers, Captain Fes jettisoned disloyal members of his crew out of an airlock and began hit and run attacks on isolated Republic bases in the Outer Rim.
Later contacted by CIS agents, he was offered an opportunity to meet with a member of the burgeoning Separatist movement in regards to joining it. He accepted the meeting and was forwarded the details, before ultimately murdering the remaining pirates for their participation in the murder of his father. Entering a meeting with an undescriptive Neimoidian gentlemen, he was offered a capital ship in the newly formed Separatist Navy and the opportunity to bring death to those who had wronged him. He accepted and was shortly after transferred to High Admiral Pax's fleet.
Prior to the operation on Rhen, Captain Fes and his new vessel, the Providence class "Odveta" (Vengeance) were ordered by High Admiral Pax to inspect Separatist Naval defenses on occupied Corellia. As he arrives at the world, Captain Fes finds the Shipyard of the Galaxy under siege by the Republic and swears to enact total vengeance on the Republic slime who dishonored his family and killed his father. His greatest goal is to burn the mountains of Chandrila to smoldering husks and to turn the grass of the Mothma clan's villas to ash. For he is the Ravager, the "Kerluv" of all those who stand in the way of vengeance
## Abilities
Captain Fes has an aggressive and opportunistic strategy in battle. He is ruthless to his enemies and ***never*** accepts surrender. Prior to a battle, Fes analyzes all possible angles of attack along with the chances the enemy has at victory. He always attempts to engineer situations which lead to the Republic oftentimes sabotaging themselves. However, Captain Fes takes great pride in his own superiority over Republic tacticians which paired with his rapid mental decline has resulted in an inability to analyze battles once they have started. Upon the beginning of a battle, Fes will be reduced to the exact strategy he had previously developed with the exception of rapid offensive action. Relying on brute force, the old Captain has very much been transformed from the genius tactical prodigy to a brutal and merciless commander that sees casualties and long term prospects as no obstacle..
# Chief Engineer [REDACTED]
## Overview
\[REDACTED\] serves as the Supreme Architect of Separatist Innovation of the [Confederacy of Independent Systems](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/chapter/the-confederacy "Confederacy of Independent Systems"), holding the title of Fleet Architect and overseeing Confederate weapons development, experimental warfare programs, and large-scale military innovation across the Separatist Navy. Unlike traditional commanders, \[REDACTED\] approaches warfare as a structural and logistical problem, focusing on pressure, positioning, and long-term degradation rather than direct confrontation.
Originally from \[REDACTED\], \[REDACTED\] developed his expertise within one of the galaxy’s most prominent shipbuilding cultures, shaping his perspective on warfare as an extension of engineering rather than strategy.
He is best known for commanding \[REDACTED\] heavily modified \[REDACTED\]-class research carriers, each dedicated to a separate field of Confederate military advancement, each engineered to fulfill a distinct operational role within his broader framework.
Each vessel represents a distinct branch of Separatist innovation, including:
- Army Research
- Naval Research
- Biological Research
- Technological Research
- Strategic Systems Development
To \[REDACTED\], these ships are not simply assets, but ongoing projects, continuously refined and tested under real combat conditions.
Operating strictly as an systems architect rather than a conventional military leader, \[REDACTED\] applies technical precision to warfare, turning battles into demonstrations of structural endurance and controlled collapse.
## Early Life
\[REDACTED\] was born on \[REDACTED\], where he demonstrated an early aptitude for structural mechanics and large-scale systems. Rather than pursuing combat training or theoretical science, he gravitated toward engineering disciplines focused on durability, systems integration, logistics sustainability, and long-term operational stability across large-scale military infrastructure.
He spent over two decades working as a senior engineer for a major \[REDACTED\] ship manufacturer, specializing in structural integrity systems and capital ship design. His work gained recognition for its efficiency and resilience, particularly in defensive architecture and sustainability under prolonged operational stress.
Despite his success, \[REDACTED\] priorities often conflicted with Republic oversight. He viewed ships not as instruments of war, but as engineered systems to be perfected. This perspective led him to focus heavily on structural optimization and endurance, sometimes at the expense of conventional military doctrine.
His career came to an abrupt turning point when a Republic tribunal accused him of leaking classified shield data to [CIS](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/chapter/the-confederacy "Confederacy of Independent Systems") intermediaries. Before the investigation could be resolved, \[REDACTED\] defected, taking his personal research, designs, and schematics with him.
His defection transferred decades of Republic naval research and systems architecture knowledge directly into Confederate hands. Within the [CIS](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/chapter/the-confederacy "Confederacy of Independent Systems"), he was granted extensive resources, near total autonomy, and access to multiple \[REDACTED\] hulls to establish a mobile innovation command dedicated to advanced Confederate warfare systems.
\[REDACTED\] named these vessels the \[REDACTED\], \[REDACTED\], \[REDACTED\], \[REDACTED\], and \[REDACTED\]. Each ship was designed with a distinct structural and operational purpose, forming the foundation of his engineering driven approach to warfare.
From that point onward, \[REDACTED\] fully committed himself to applying engineering principles to conflict, treating war not as a contest of force, but as a system under stress, where victory is achieved through controlled failure.
## Fleet Architecture
At the core of \[REDACTED\] doctrine is a fleet of five heavily modified \[REDACTED\]-class research carriers, each engineered to serve as both a warship and a mobile development platform for a specific field of Confederate military innovation.
\[REDACTED\] does not treat his ships as individual war assets, but as components of a single engineered system. Each vessel is continuously modified and adjusted, with real battlefield conditions serving as testing environments for further refinement.
While highly effective when operating together, the system is not without vulnerability. Disrupting or heavily damaging individual components can destabilize the entire structure.
### \[REDACTED\]
**Army Research Division**
Dedicated to the development of Confederate ground warfare systems, \[REDACTED\] functions as the primary testing platform for large-scale droid combat doctrine, siege equipment, and planetary suppression strategies.
The vessel specializes in:
- Battle droid behavioral adaptation
- Urban pacification systems
- Entrenchment warfare
- Mass production optimization
Unlike conventional CIS carriers, \[REDACTED\] continuously alters its internal deployment infrastructure to test battlefield efficiency under live combat conditions. Entire droid battalions are treated as evolving prototypes rather than finalized military assets.
### \[REDACTED\]
**Naval Research Division**
Serving as the centerpiece of Confederate naval experimentation, \[REDACTED\] oversees the development of advanced fleet warfare systems, shield harmonics, and capital ship combat architecture.
The vessel specializes in:
- Experimental shield matrices
- Turbolaser efficiency systems
- Fleet coordination algorithms
- Starfighter suppression doctrine
- Long-range siege operations
The ship is heavily equipped with monitoring systems designed to record structural stress across both allied and enemy vessels during combat, allowing continuous refinement of Separatist naval doctrine.
### \[REDACTED\]
**Biological Research Division**
\[REDACTED\] operates as the most heavily restricted vessel within the fleet, overseeing Confederate research into environmental warfare, cybernetic integration, and biological resilience under hostile conditions.
The vessel specializes in:
- Atmospheric contamination systems
- Cybernetic augmentation
- Medical stabilization research
- Hostile environment adaptation
- Organic-machine interface studies
Due to the classified nature of its projects, access aboard \[REDACTED\] remains tightly controlled even among senior CIS personnel.
### \[REDACTED\]
**Technological Research Division**
Focused on advanced computational warfare and automation systems, \[REDACTED\] serves as the technological core of \[REDACTED\] fleet architecture.
The vessel specializes in:
- Tactical prediction systems
- Autonomous command networks
- Communications disruption
- Signal interception and encryption
The ship maintains extensive processing arrays dedicated to battlefield simulation and systems analysis, allowing Confederate forces to adapt operational patterns in near real time.
### \[REDACTED\]
**Strategic Systems Division / Flagship**
\[REDACTED\] serves as both \[REDACTED\] personal command vessel and the central coordination hub of the fleet architecture system.
Unlike the other carriers, \[REDACTED\] is not dedicated to a single field of research. Instead, it functions as the convergence point where all Confederate innovation projects are integrated, evaluated, and operationally deployed.
The vessel specializes in:
- Strategic command coordination
- Fleet-wide logistical oversight
- Long-term war sustainability modeling
To \[REDACTED\], \[REDACTED\] represents the foundation upon which the entire system operates. Its loss would severely compromise both fleet cohesion and his ability to maintain operational control.
# Commander Karnus Ra
*“I’d sacrifice a*
*thousand of these*
*machines so that my*
*people may be free.”*
### **Overview**
**General Karnus Ra**, also known as **"The Cyclops,"** is a rash, impatient, and vulgar General serving the Separatist Alliance. He is considered a renowed ground and asymmetric warfare tactician across the Outer Rim... but regarded as a barely adequate Naval Commander and an even worse politician amongst his peers.
Karnus is most known to utilize organic soldiers, volunteers, and partisans in the battlefield- preferring to utilize them as lieutenants or irregulars over Droids consistently. Karnus' specializes in insurgent warfare, and he currently serves as a General under [**High Admiral Pax**](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/high-admiral-pax) and his **Reaper's Fleet**. Karnus commands a small task force of Munificent-class Frigates within the fleet.
### **Early Life**
Karnus Ra was born on a forgotten, uncharted world deep within Wild Space- far beyond the reach of the Galactic Republic’s established hyperspace routes and governance. The planet itself, unnamed in most navigational records, was known as Lysatra. Lysatra's surface was dominated by dense, untamed jungle ecosystems and scarce resources.
Karnus was raised among a small, community of drifters, settlers, and nomads... all individuals who had either fled the Republic’s authority or been left behind by it entirely. His early adult years is where he would be exposure to all types of off-world influences. Smugglers, mercenaries, and traders would occasionally pass through the system, bringing with them information of the wider galaxy.
### **Karnus' Insurgency**
Little information is publicly known at this time.
### **Service to High Admiral Pax**
Little information is publicly known at this time.
# Count Dooku
## Overview
Dooku, a force-sensitive Serennian, is a man of many titles: Head of State of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, former Jedi Master, and Count of Serenno. After being discovered as a force-sensitive, he was raised and trained as a Jedi, apprenticing under [Grand Master Yoda](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/yoda "Yoda") himself.
Dooku was, during his time in the [Jedi Order](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/jedi-order "The Jedi Order"), and many suspect still is, one of the most skilled lightsaber-duelists in the galaxy. With many believing him to be second only to Grand Master Yoda, and an equal to Mace Windu. He is a master, and likely **the** master of the Makashi form. Throughout his time in the Order, Dooku also excelled in his knowledge and skill with the force, especially with his use of Force Telekensis.
In the few instances he has appeared in the Clone Wars so far, it seems he still values honor and recognises those who put the same importance in the quality as he does. He also seems to be amenable to Jedi who share the same beliefs and values he does, as seen by the acceptance of Quinlan Vos as one of his acolytes.
As Head of State of the [Confederacy of Independent Systems](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/chapter/the-confederacy "CIS"), he is the leader of the [Separatist Military](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/separatist-military "The Separatist Military"), presides over the Separatist Parliament, and presides over the Executive Separatist Council.
Whenever Dooku enters a battlefield, it seems that a large Droid force is often attached to him. In the few instances of the Count appearing on the frontlines, it is always with multiple hunter pods, armored units, and Separatist starfighters. Additionally, the Count seems to have many different personal guard units, ranging from his Sith Acolytes, Commando Droids, or even Pyke Sentinels.
## Early Life
Dooku was born on Serenno to Count Gora and Countess Anya, and after he was discovered to be force-sensitive, he was shortly kicked out by his father and taken by the Jedi Order. He would begin his training as a youngling and befriended Sifo-Dyas.
His skills, knowledge, and personality seemed to have impressed Grand Master Yoda, who took him on as a Padawan. Under his Master’s guidance, Dooku furthered both his lightsaber skills and his connection and strength with the Force.
After passing his Jedi Knight trials, Dooku quickly rose through the ranks and became a Jedi Master. He had three Padawans, the first being Rael Aveross. The last being an unknown female who the Jedi Order have not released information; however, it was known that she had turned to the Dark Side and was eliminated. Interestingly, it seems that Dooku had kept her curved double blade lightsabers and given them to his now Sith Apprentice, [Assajj Ventress](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/asajj-ventress "Asajj Ventress"). His most famous Padawan was Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn, an exceptional Jedi who lost his life fighting the Sith Maul.
Being an idealist, and witnessing the rise of corruption in the Senate, and the Jedi’s willingness to let said corruption grow, he grew dissatisfied with the Order. After local troubles in his home planet of Serenno, he decided to part with the Jedi Order to take over the duties and responsibilities as the Count of Serenno
[](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/uploads/images/gallery/2026-04/rGAimage.png)
## Story
#### Pre War - Meeting the Republic
The first appearance of Count Dooku during the Clone Wars happened during the crisis on the Republic Venator “Triumphant”. During a meeting with Foreman Wat Tambor aboard the Triumphant, the [Senators](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/chapter/galactic-senate "Galactic Senate") ordered his arrest, causing a CIS Fleet to arrive from hyperspace and detain all Republic personnel on board.
Once all Republic personnel were detained by Droid Forces, Count Dooku boarded and spoke to the captured personnel. During this time, he spoke with Obi-Wan Kenobi, the former Padawan of Qui-Gon Jinn. Dooku personally executed a Senator who was responsible for the arrest of Wat Tambor, stating his distaste for warmongers. Interestingly, he spared a [Navy](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/republic-star-fleet "Republic Star Fleet") Admiral who refused to join the Confederacy, saying he appreciated his loyalty to his beliefs and to his men.
#### The Liberation of Christopsis - Multiple Days
Currently, Count Dooku is present on Christopsis. Acting as a General and a frontline leader, he has been capturing Jedi, attacking key Republic FOBs, and using the campaign as an opportunity to train his new acolyte Quinlan Vos.
His presence often causes massive halts and changes of plans for the Republic, not just due to his own personal skill, but the sudden arrival of his personal forces often changes the predicted numbers and battlefield anaylsis done by Republic Commanders.
One of the more deadly incidents involving the Count in this campaign is when a miscommunication by the [Republic Starfighter Corps](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/starfighter-corps "Starfighter Corps") resulted in many Clones and Jedi being deployed to the Count’s headquarters in Tophen City. It was during this battle that the Count's new proficiency with Force Lightning was showcased.

# Director Veyss
## Overview
Liorn Veyss is a Project Director within the [Confederacy of Independent Systems](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/confederacy-of-independent-systems), serving under the Confederate Scientific and Experimental Warfare Division. Widely recognized as a “young genius celebrity” among scientific circles, he is known for his unconventional and highly controversial approach to warfare, treating combat not as a means of conquest, but as a large-scale experimental system.
Operating under the belief that knowledge and discovery outweigh all ethical limitations, Veyss utilizes live battlefield conditions to test hypotheses, refine experimental technologies, and validate theoretical models. His work frequently involves advanced weapons research, environmental manipulation, and the adaptation of droid behavior in combat scenarios.
Despite his undeniable brilliance, Veyss is equally defined by his extreme ego and need for recognition. His tendency to prioritize validation of his own theories over operational stability often results in unpredictable and high-risk situations, leading many within the [Confederacy](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/confederacy-of-independent-systems) to view him as both a valuable asset and a dangerous liability.
## Early Life
Liorn Veyss was born on [Coruscant](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/coruscant), where he demonstrated exceptional intellectual capabilities from a young age. His early academic development quickly drew attention within Republic scientific institutions, granting him access to advanced research programs and positioning him among the most promising young minds of his generation.
Initially aligned with the [Galactic Republic](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/galactic-republic), Veyss pursued a career within its scientific divisions, focusing on experimental research and theoretical applications. However, even during this early stage, his methods began to raise concerns among his peers and superiors. He showed little regard for ethical boundaries, favoring rapid results and breakthrough discoveries over procedural limitations.
His growing reputation as a prodigy was soon overshadowed by controversy. In one of his early research projects, Veyss conducted extreme and ethically unacceptable experiments involving multiple lifeforms. While the results were scientifically successful, the methods employed triggered outrage within Republic institutions.
The situation culminated in a formal demonstration observed by high-ranking officials. Despite achieving his intended results, Veyss reacted with visible excitement, openly celebrating his success and declaring his own genius in a manner widely seen as inappropriate and detached.
Following the incident, Veyss was expelled from Republic scientific divisions, marking a turning point in his career. From that moment onward, he began to view the Republic as restrictive, outdated and inefficient, ultimately rejecting its principles in favor of unrestricted scientific pursuit.
## Geonosis Incident
During his time within the [Confederacy of Independent Systems](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/confederacy-of-independent-systems), Veyss conducted a series of experimental projects on [Geonosis](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/geonosis) focused on volatile chemical reactions and large-scale environmental weaponization. One of these experiments resulted in a catastrophic failure, triggering a massive explosion followed by a rapidly spreading fire that proved extremely difficult to contain.
The incident caused severe damage to nearby installations and forced an emergency response from [Confederacy](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/confederacy-of-independent-systems) personnel. Initial containment efforts were further complicated when standard suppression methods, including the use of water, unintentionally accelerated the spread of the fire due to the unknown chemical properties involved.
As a result of the scale of the failure, Veyss was formally summoned before the Separatist Council to provide an explanation for the incident and its consequences. During the hearing, he was heavily reprimanded by members of the leadership, including Nute Gunray.
Rather than demonstrating concern or accountability, Veyss responded with visible frustration and excitement, openly challenging the Council’s reaction. He argued that the unexpected behavior of the fire represented a significant scientific discovery, criticizing the leadership for focusing on the damage rather than the potential application of the phenomenon.
> *“Do you not see it? How do you not see it? This is a fascinating discovery! Idiots! The fire spread due to the use of water! Instead of allowing me to study which compound caused this so your incompetent generals can use it in battle, you are reprimanding me? Imbeciles!"*
Despite the severity of the incident and his behavior during the hearing, the scientific implications of his findings led to an unexpected outcome. Veyss was released without direct punishment, though the event significantly reinforced his reputation within the [Confederacy](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/confederacy-of-independent-systems) as both a dangerous liability and an irreplaceable asset.
Since the incident, his work has remained under indirect supervision, with certain members of the Separatist leadership closely monitoring his projects while continuing to authorize his research due to its potential strategic value.
# High Admiral Pax
## **Overview**
**High Admiral Pax**, known across the Republic as **“The Reaper,”** is a ruthless and highly cunning [Separatist commander](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/separatist-military "The Separatist Military") feared for his ability to dominate the battlefield through both force and strategy. Considered an unpredictable X-factor by Republic leadership, Pax has repeatedly shown the ability to shift the tide of war and influence the Clone Wars on a scale matched by few other [CIS leaders](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/chapter/confederacy-of-independent-systems "Confederacy of Independent Systems").
Pax commands the feared **Reaper’s Fleet**, while his network of elite operatives, known as his **Shadows**, wage proxy wars and covert campaigns on his behalf across the galaxy.
## **Early Life**
Born under the twin suns of [Tatooine](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/tatooine "Tatooine"), Pax grew up in a harsh world. The Outer Rim offered him no safety, no stability, and no justice. Violence was everywhere, and when you are a human on Tatooine, nothing comes easy. Pax learned early that he was not the smartest or strongest on his planet, so he needed to become something far more dangerous - patient.
Pax learned to survive through observation, restraint, and calculation. He studied crime lords, outlaws, bounty hunters, and smugglers. Not to learn from them, but to learn about them. Overtime, Pax knew how to manipulate and break his enemies through strategy, timing, and fear. Pax had achieved what brute force could not, control.
## **The Shadows**Pax did not rise alone. As his influence grew, he began gathering a select group of followers who believed in his methods. These men and women became known as the Shadows, a name whispered more often than spoken.These Shadows were not traditional soldiers, but tools for Pax to control. The Shadow's enforced Pax's rule through intimidation, information, and carefully placed violence. They obeyed and listened to their leader, making rivals vanish, and tightening Pax's grip over the people and territory around him.They do not follow Pax because he is the strongest, many of them are stronger. They do not follow Pax because he is the brightest, many of them are brighter. **They follow Pax because he knows where they are going.**What began as a criminal circle soon became the foundation of Pax's power. The Shadows were the first proof that his influence did not need to be seen, it was felt.
## Recruitment by Count Dooku
Pax's growing influence on Tatooine was known to few. Pax kept his authority hidden, preferring to control the playing field from beyond it. At this stage in his life, Pax was not yet a criminal in the eyes of many, but a harsh and calculating survivor. His Shadows were feared, but they were disciplined, and Pax acted only when necessary. Everything he built was done for control, stability, and survival.
One day, Pax learned that a group of newly created Clones had begun poking around Mos Eisley. Curious, he had them watched from a distance. What began as caution quickly became interest, as Pax observed the way they carried themselves. They were disciplined, dangerous, and foreign to the world. But with that discipline came arrogance. Upon seeing the disrespect and force with which they treated the locals, Pax recognized something familiar. Outsiders, who believed strength alone gave them the right to impose order on a planet that the Republic had long forgotten.
Pax studied these Clones. He tracked their movements, tested their awareness, and learned how they operated. The Clones never realized they were being watched by the time Mos Eisley turned against them. Their mission failed not because of overwhelming force, but because Pax denied them information, mobility, and control.
Studying the new Clones too, it did not take Count [Dooku](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/count-dooku "Count Dooku") long to identify what had happen on this remote planet where the Clones saw some of their first real action. Dooku saw something far more valuable in the desert than a local leader. He saw a man who could challenge military precision without ever needing an army of his own. Pax had done more than resist Republic control, he turned it around and exposed the Clones biggest weakness, their dependence on order.
From there, Pax was approached not as a criminal desert rat, but as a potential asset. Dooku offered him purpose beyond survival, and a chance for Pax to test his skill in the first open conflict the galaxy has seen in a lifetime. Pax accepted, seeing in the Separatist cause no loyalty, but opportunity to wield power on a scale he never could.
## [The Invasion of Rhen Varr](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/draft/299 "The Invasion of Rhen Varr")
The Invasion of Rhen Varr marked the first time Dooku let Pax loose. Seeing the first major flaw in the Republic war efforts, Pax and his Shadow's moved two fleets under their control to Corfai and Rhen Varr.
At this point, the Republic had stationed a large force on the CIS planet of Christophsis and was threatening to take control of a vital sector. With Dooku himself deploying to Christophsis, Pax needed to change the cards to his favor. By launching on the two nearby planets, Pax drove 2 Republic Venators and the 21st Legion away from Christophsis. The Republic, in another miss-step, retreated from Corfai to reinforce their fleet at Rhen Varr, conceding Pax his first planet of the war.
The Republic stationed four Venators outside Rhen Varr, threatening Pax and his own fleet on the other side of the cold planet. Pax's newly available fleet of Corfai was ready to move, and Pax had a plan for them. During a holo-transmission with [Marshal Commander Sand](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/cc-1870-sand "CC-1870 “Sand”"), Pax sent in his largest Providence class-destroyer loaded to the teeth with EMP bombs. This costly move would never have been attempted by any other Admiral, but for Pax, this move would win him not just one planet but several.
The Providence exploded, detonating the EMP and crippling all 4 Republic Venators. From there, Pax sent in both of his fleets to finish the job. After destroying two Venators, Pax left two operational as bait for the Republic. Pax did not do this out of pity for the men on board. This move was done so Pax can win the next battle, not just this one.
As it stands, High Admiral Pax and his Shadow's are still locked in on Rhen Varr, with the dominos falling each day.
# Seris Lysos
## OverviewSeris Voss was a well-known and respected member of the Republic Senate. She was known for her sharp mind and strategic kills which was a big impact on how the Senate was ran. She came from a wealthy and powerful house which was a well-known house on the plane Ashas where she was born and trained to have a sharp mind in politics. She raised through the ranks as a symbol of reform and strategic leadership; her legacy isn't just about what she did for the Republic but how she stopped believing in it. Seris turned her back on the Republic that she had help development throughout her time within the Senate. After her dear friend Conrad Lysos was executed by Republic Intelligence, her trust for the Republic shattered and that led her to turn her back to the Republic that she helped shape. She decided to align herself with the Confederacy of Independent Systems, where her skills in strategy were put to good use once more.
## Early LifeSeris came from one of the most powerful and wealthiest families in the Republic. The Voss name meant a lot in politics and business, this gave Seris a lot of chances to excel and gain education from a young age. Seris was one of the few that didn't rely on her family's name, but she was just naturally good in politics, law, and government. She was one the type of person, if you needed intel on something she will get it for you no matter the cost.From a young age, she studied the structure of the Republic but not as a passive observer, but as someone who wanted to know how to make systems better and keep them under control. Seris saw problems that others thought were stable. She saw stagnation where they saw tradition. She didn't want to take overpower; she wanted to make it better.
## Rise within the SenateIn 977 RSY, Seris Voss became the Senator of Ashas Ree, marking the start of a career that would quickly shift the political landscape. Her presence in the Senate was immediate and impactful, earning her a reputation for being composed, deliberate, and strategically savvy. Her talents led to her role as Chairwomen of the Judiciary Oversight Committee, where she undertook her most significant work. Seris played a crucial role in revamping the Republic's Judicial Branch. She advocated for clarity, efficiency, and centralized authority, ensuring that laws were not only enforced but controlled. Her influence extended even further, as she contributed to revisions within the Republic’s constitutional framework. While many applauded her initiatives as necessary progress, others quietly noted the increasing rigidity of the system she helped design.
> Judicial independence is the Republic’s final safeguard.
## Alliance with House LysosSeris's political career peaked when she became the Vice Speaker of the Senate, placing her among the most influential figures in the Republic. During this time, she forged a close bond with House Lysos, one of the Senate's most esteemed families. Her marriage to Jordan Lysos united the Voss and Lysos houses, strengthening her political influence even more. Among the Lysos family, Seris was particularly close to Conrad Lysos, the Speaker of the Senate. He wasn’t just a colleague—he was her mentor, her closest ally, and, in many ways, her moral compass. Their relationship thrived on mutual respect, trust, and a shared vision for the Republic’s potential.
## Departure from the SenateAfter years of dedicated service, Seris made the surprising choice to step away from the Senate. Having achieved what few could, she decided to leave the political arena, seeking peace and freedom beyond the burdens of governance. For the first time, she allowed herself to exist outside the system she had devoted her life to refining. She decided to spend time with her family, seeking peace and unity in the city of Carida. She left The Republic, and that day, the Republic she left didn't stay the same.
## Loss of FaithIn the aftermath, Seris began to view the Republic differently. The system she had helped build and strengthen now appeared fragile, corrupt, and deeply flawed. The Republic that she once trusted in now crumbled into chaos. Seris no longer perceived a government worth saving, she saw a system that had decayed from within. The same building that she once worked within, blown to pieces, the place she spent most of her life just gone. Although she didn't know who or what did it, this will not stop her from finding out.
## RecruitmentAfter many have seen Seris's brilliance, and her perspective changing, High Admiral Pax approached Seris with a task, a task to deliver a message that would change her life entirely. Admiral Pax did not want to recruit Seris as a solider, but as a strategist, spy and her former role a Senator. He wanted someone capable of shaping political systems with the same expertise that he applied on the battlefield. He recognized what Seris had become, not someone who is broken, but someone who is redirected into a better cause. He offered her a new purpose within the Confederacy of Independent Systems, where her understanding of the Republic’s inner workings could be used against it.As Seris takes upon the role of Senator, she will attempt to aid the CIS from within. She will become a voice for their concerns and play a key role manipulating the ones that call themselves "Senators". Seris brought precision, experience, and a profound understanding on how governance works. After she saw the death of her dearest friend Conrad Lysos who was executed by Republic Intelligence made Seris trigger. She devoted herself to a single aim which was to destroy the Republic from within.
> The Senate’s legitimacy depends on transparency. Law must remain superior to executive ambition.
# Galactic Senate
# Mas Amedda
## Early Life
Heralding from the planet of Champala, Mas Amedda was raised within the elasticated strips of coastline stretching across the Champala coast, where sea levels fluctuated wildly with the tides. Amedda at a young age was raised under Chagrian values of pacifism & diplomacy and took high regard to the teachings of the God, Arm Acheron whose prophesy drove Amedda’s motivation to drive the successes of his species.
At a teenage age he was sent to Naboo, where he studied Political Science at the Legislative Youth Programme at Theed University, notably securing a passing margin of 75% to 25% for a Military Creation Bill during a mock Senate trial on Chandrila. Classmates refer to Amedda as a ‘potential, cunning and valiant statesman’.
## Political Career
A well renowned politician within the Champalan Government, he was credited for passing the ‘Education Reform Bill’ and allocated private funds to opening the University of Chagria, a university respected for its teaching of Aquatic Biology. Spending almost 20 years serving the Champalan Government as a regional governor, Amedda was appointed by his government to represent the Champala seat in the Galactic Senate on Coruscant, as a senator. Just like many Chagrians beforehand, many colleagues referred to the Chagrian male as an honest, stoic yet charismatic politician who had a sickly addiction for procedure. His honesty was however often criticised for his links to the Trade Federation which many claimed was lobbying high masses of private wealth to him. Certain Senators also described the male as having a passive-aggressive approach to politics, approaching calmly, softly but precisely to ensure that he could secure support for bills concerning his people whilst also eradicating any rivalry within the halls of the Senate silently by trapping rival senators in procedure & bureaucracy. This allowed the Chagrian Male to mediate between conflict and perform exceptionally well during times of immense pressure. Mas Amedda was also credited for mentoring many well-renowned senators, such as Senator Vogo Sorn and Senator Tanu Ha.
Despite his links to the Trade Federation, under Chancellor Volken’s leadership he rose to become the Chancellor's prominent Chief Security Adviser, running the Republic Security Council and organizing its ‘Sector Supervisor’ policy which provided oversight and credibility to military operations. Alongside Vice Chancellor Primus IV and Senator Varkis Drayce, Amedda was able to pass the Republic Defense & Security Oversight Bill, placing this crucially important committee under the leadership of the Chancellor. Here, Amedda spent months to strengthen ties between the military and the legislature, ensuring compliance and cooperation on behalf of the Chancellor, publicly expressing his utmost respect for the admiralty, and his appreciation for the Enforcement Regiment. Due to these acts, he was then appointed as Vice Speaker of the Senate, whereby he was responsible for handling the Senate's day-to-day agenda - granting him significant procedural powers in the legislature. Under the leadership of Primus IV, the Vice Chancellor, Amedda enacted major procedural reform to the Senate, establishing the first version of the Standing Orders and re-organizing how Senate Proceedings were run. However, there were some criticisms during his leadership, such as the botched Alderaan Negotiations with the Trade Federation. Many considered the Vice Speaker as at fault for allowing bureaucracy, and procedure to cloud his judgement which almost drove the Republic to War. Some also claim that the Vice Speaker had at some point fallen disillusioned with the leadership of the legislature, influencing the Republic Security Council and the Diplomacy & Foreign Affairs Committee in working to change leadership.
After the removal of his colleague, Primus IV by Chancellor Volken, Mas Amedda was elected as Speaker of the Senate by a landslide vote, and so was responsible for the entire leadership of the legislature. During his tenure, he was responsible for establishing a new, comprehensive senatorial training system called the ‘Apprenticeship Program, which would be the standard route to preparing an individual for senatorial duties. Amedda also worked closely with the Chancellor's Office, manipulating voting decisions to pave way successful bills such as:
- The Republic Trade Security and Cooperative Inspection Act which granted greater powers to secure official republic trade ships; and,
- The Strategic Trade and Industrial Acceleration Act which allocated funds to crucial industrial zones within the Republic amidst the early CIS crisis; and,
- Significant funding to the Republic Food Reserves; and,
- The Republic Secrets Act which secured highly confidential government documents, operations and criminalized information crime under legal definition.
Amedda’s political career took a turn after the assassination of Chancellor Volken which led to his appointment as Chancellor as a result of the line of succession falling onto him. At first, Amedda had fiercely opposed the idea of working in the executive branch as he felt the position was prone to sabotage, betrayal and resistance, however he embraced the role in pursuit of ensuring the criminal responsible for his friend's death was caught and trialed under the Courts.
As Chancellor, Amedda’s ‘New Initiative’ program promised citizens a stronger, more resistant Navy, claiming that as his first act as Chancellor, his priority would be to establish a capable, potent Navy - gone were the days of the Republic Judicial Forces; the Republic would be defended by a new, reformed Navy under his vision. He would ensure this was the case by increasing industrial hubs, such as industrializing Carida whilst also working with the Intergalactic Banking Clan to secure millions of credits to handle the food shortage crisis. Amedda also pledged to reform the Republic’s crippling Judicial Department’s Judicial Forces, granting it higher responsibilities to tackle the growing piracy and organized crime.
The Chancellor was also granted Emergency Powers in response to the attack on ‘The Reliant’ which left a Jedi Master, Admiral and a battalion dead. Under his powers, he was responsible and successful in:
- The liberation of Alderaan.
- The War Campaign on Carida; and,
- The War Campaign on Christophsis.
## Political View
Amedda, although driven by the liberal ideals of his Chagrian culture, argued for technocratic, studying the theory during his study at Theed University. He fiercely believed in elite bureaucratic authoritarianism, he believed that efficient governance relied on experienced leaders, and that ordinary citizens may have been unqualified to manage a galactic-scale government. Just like many Chagrian Politicians before him, he was strongly influenced by a hierarchical worldview, arguing that strong leadership was vital during a crisis, bureaucrats must ensure systems function, and that civil liberties may need to be restricted to ensure stability and order. Many claim the Chagrian male as not loyal to political doctrine, but loyal to state apparatus, holding allegiance to the central government and the continuity of authority.
Key ideas:
- Technocratic authoritarianism
- State conservatism
- Bureaucratic pragmatism
## Views on the Jedi
Mas Amedda believed in the necessity of the Jedi Order, remarking that the Republic were reliant on these capable guardians to safeguard law and mediate conflict within the Republic. He often spent his free time fishing alongside Jedi Knight Dau-ri Otanoh on Champala, held high regard to Jedi Consular Bomba Kush as a cunning negotiator, and worked closely with Master Mace Windu in organizing the senate's role in overseeing the military.
## Speeches
Amidst the on-going CIS crisis, Amedda famously addressed the Republic and her people with his ‘As a faithful servant… as a troubled father’ speech.
> I speak to you, not only as Chancellor, but as faithful servant of these great systems that fall under one banner... and as a troubled father who feels the weight of every life entrusted in our care.
>
> Today, over the peaceful plains of Alderaan, to the striking skies of Carida, we were hit with fatal blows that shook the very nature of our fair & democratic society. The Confederacy of Independent Systems struck with calculated fury in two consecutive attacks. Their fleets tore from hyperspace without pre-empt warning. Their commanders sought not merely territory - but fear.
>
> Over Alderaan, under the cold direction of General Grievous, the enemy descended upon our space. And yet, though our Navy was battered and our lines tested, they did not break. Admiral Rommel Konig, with steadfast resolve, rallied our forces. The 5th Fleet Security under Battalion Commander Mixup stood firm. The Starfighter Corps carved defiance into the stars themselves. The enemy expected surrender. Instead, they found courage and will.
>
> But the despicable greed of the Separatists knew no limits.
>
> Their armadas then darkened the skies above Carida, arriving in overwhelming force, wave after wave pressing into Republic space. There, they were met not with surrender, but with the unyielding resolve of the Republic. Admirals Bob Hoffman and Duke Heinz rallied our battered fleets, standing firm amid the storm of turbolaser fire. At their side, the 5th Fleet Security under Battalion Commander Mixup held formation against impossible odds, while the Starfighter Corps, led by Commodore Bragart, carved defiance through enemy lines.
>
> But our forces had already endured relentless combat. Supplies thinned. Hulls fractured. Pilots flew on fading strength. What followed was not a battle of equals, but a brutal onslaught — a merciless assault against warriors who had trained since birth to defend the liberties and ideals we hold sacred. They did not break. They did not retreat in fear. They stood, and many fell, buying time with their lives so that others might yet stand tomorrow.
>
> Yet, we must speak plainly.
>
> We have suffered grievous losses. Carida currently falls under CIS occupation, and the people remain restricted from the pleasures of our free way of life, whilst stranded pockets of Republic Forces revolt against the insurrection. Our Navy, although tested, has bore scars and it will take time to fix. However, let us make clear: they do not understand us, the people.
>
> "We are not united by fear."
> "We are not sustained by conquest."
> "We endure because we believe — in democracy, in justice, in one another."
>
> This is not the end of our strength; it is the forging of it.
>
> We will not hesitate. Multiple senatorial delegations have sought action, and we will ensure that action is taken fast, not through bureaucracy, but through practicality and for the protection of every soul who was born to have faith in our ideals.
>
> As Chancellor, I have issued an Executive Order to initiate a 7-day period of public mourning for the lives lost.
>
> Arrangements will be made, service will be commemorated, and bravery will be recognized. Whilst I speak, the Republic and her forces are mobilised, and we will strike back with twice as much might and fury.
>
> We, the people, are not defined by yesterday's losses, but rather tomorrow's victories.
# Tyrion Goldarn
## Early Background
Tyrion Goldarn, Senator of **Alderaan**, is a man whose rise to power has been as controversial as it has been meteoric. Born aboard a cargo freighter to working-class Alderaanians, he was raised among the galaxy’s trade routes, far removed from the aristocratic halls of his homeworld. His parents, traders who transported Alderaanian goods across the stars, instilled in him a deep pride for his homeland. Yet, from a young age, Tyrion understood the stark realities of the galaxy—Alderaan’s traditions, its pacifism, and its noble ideals were little more than illusions. Beyond its pristine cities and rolling hills lay a brutal and unforgiving universe were power alone dictated survival.
At 17, seeking to serve his homeworld, he enlisted in the Alderaanian Military. While Alderaan prided itself on diplomacy over force, its security forces were still trained in the arts of war. Tyrion quickly distinguished himself through sheer force of will, tactical brilliance, and an unwavering commitment to duty. However, his military career was cut short when he suffered a severe injury during an escort mission in the Outer Rim, losing his left eye while defending an Alderaanian consular ship from a pirate ambush. Though he was hailed as a hero, his injury rendered him unfit for active duty, and he was honorably discharged.
## Rise in Politics
Furious at being cast aside, he turned to politics, believing that the true battle for Alderaan’s future was not fought with blasters, but with laws, policies, and leadership. His entry into Alderaan’s political arena was anything but easy. Centuries of aristocratic rule made it nearly impossible for a commoner to rise through the ranks. But Tyrion was a determined man. He leveraged his military reputation, rallied disillusioned officers, and built a coalition of working-class Alderaanians who had long been ignored by the nobility. His commanding presence and sharp wit made him a powerful orator, allowing him to cut through the bloated idealism of Alderaan’s ruling elite. Through a mix of calculated maneuvering, unrelenting determination, and sheer charisma, he secured a position as Minister of Internal Security, a role that gave him unprecedented influence over Alderaan’s defense policies.
In this role, he implemented sweeping reforms: crime plummeted, Alderaan’s security forces expanded, and trade policies were adjusted to favor Alderaanian interests. However, his tenure also sparked controversy—his policies restricted foreign influence, prioritized Alderaanian sovereignty, and cracked down on groups he deemed subversive. The nobility despised him, branding him a demagogue, but the people adored him. When an opportunity arose for a new senator to be elected, the aristocracy did everything in its power to stop him. Yet, despite their efforts, Tyrion’s support was too strong. He won the election, becoming the first non-noble senator in modern Alderaanian history.
## Senatorial Life
As a senator, Tyrion does not merely represent Alderaan—he represents its people, not its aristocracy. He has positioned himself as a bulwark against what he sees as Alderaan’s greatest threat: its own complacency. While other Alderaanian politicians preach diplomacy and non-intervention, Tyrion argues that such ideals will only lead to ruin. The Republic is crumbling, the Separatists are growing in strength, and war is no longer a distant possibility—it is an inevitability. Alderaan must be prepared.
## Political Beliefs & Goals
- Militarization of Alderaan – He fiercely opposes pacifism, advocating for an independent Alderaanian Defense Force capable of defending itself without reliance on the Republic.
- Economic Nationalism – Believes Alderaan’s resources and industry should serve Alderaanians first, not be exploited by the Republic’s bureaucracy.
- Republican Realism – Views the Republic as weak and corrupt, but necessary for now—he is willing to work within the system while quietly building Alderaan’s strength.
- Authoritative Pragmatism – He does not trust democracy blindly, believing that the people should be led by strong, decisive leaders, not career politicians.
## Personality & Reputation
- To the People: A strong leader, a man of action, unafraid to challenge Alderaan’s stagnant traditions.
- To the Nobility: A dangerous radical, a demagogue whose rise threatens centuries of aristocratic rule.
- To the Galactic Senate: A sharp-tongued politician, known for his ability to dominate debates and leave his opponents scrambling for words.
- Charismatic & Commanding – Holds absolute confidence in himself and his beliefs, making it difficult for others to challenge him without being overwhelmed.
- Nationalist & Unapologetic – Believes Alderaan must come first and does not tolerate weakness in leadership.
- Calculating & Visionary – Sees himself as the architect of Alderaan’s future, willing to make hard choices to ensure its survival.
- Sharp-Witted & Humorous – Possesses a dry, cutting humor that he uses to disarm opponents or humiliate them in political debates.
Tyrion Goldarn is a man forged by hardship, a leader who rose from nothing to reshape Alderaan’s future. To his supporters, he is a visionary—one who refuses to let Alderaan fall into the abyss of galactic war without preparing for it. To his enemies, he is a dangerous populist, a man who challenges the very foundations of Alderaan’s culture. Regardless of where one stands, one thing is certain: Senator Goldarn stands for Alderaan, no matter the price
## Cementing Speech
In 976 RSY, Senator Tyrion Goldarn of Alderaan delivered what would become one of the most iconic and controversial speeches of his political career, later known as the "Blinded By Power" speech. The moment came during an increasingly tense Senate debate in the senate, a motion aimed around the on-going rising tensions in the galaxy.
Goldarn, representing the traditionally pacifist world of Alderaan, took the floor not to echo his planet’s typical diplomatic tone, but to echo something entirely different. Drawing from his military experience and populist mandate, he warned of a Republic slowly strangling its member worlds under the weight of bureaucracy, fear, and moral weakness. At a time when piracy surged unchecked, and trade consortiums amassed private militaries larger than some planetary defense forces, Goldarn argued the Republic’s obsession with control was a greater threat to liberty than the unrest it sought to contain.
The speech was bold, nationalistic, and defiant. Goldarn accused the Senate of being out of touch with the galaxy’s working people and called for Alderaan to lead by example—not through pacifism, but through preparedness, pride, and sovereignty. Most famously, he declared, "We must not be blinded by our own need for power!"—a warning to both the Republic and its members to not be blinded under their greed to gain more power.
Though widely condemned by many Core World senators as inflammatory, the speech ignited a groundswell of support back on Alderaan and in other Outer Rim and Mid Rim systems. It would mark a turning point in Goldarn’s career, and the ideological birth of a new political movement centered around national self-determination, military strength, and charismatic leadership.
The full text of the speech is as follows:
> *Senators, dignitaries, and esteemed leaders of the Republic, I stand before you today not to whisper empty reassurances, nor to stroke the egos of those who still believe words alone will hold back the coming storm. I stand before you to speak the truth—the truth you all know in your hearts but refuse to say aloud. Our Republic is crumbling, and we are the ones holding the hammer*
>
> *For generations, Alderaan has prided itself as a beacon of peace and civilization, a world above the petty conflicts that tear the galaxy apart. We have sat in our pristine halls, looked upon the suffering of others, and told ourselves that our neutrality, our diplomacy, and our traditions make us superior. But let me ask you—what good are traditions when they leave us defenseless? What good is diplomacy when our enemies do not listen? What good is peace when it is built upon the naive hope that war will simply pass us by?*
>
> *I have seen what awaits those who place their trust in empty promises. I have walked among the ruins of worlds that once believed themselves untouchable. I have seen their people—starving, broken, abandoned. And I have sworn that Alderaan and this Republic will never suffer the same fate!*
>
> *Yet, here I stand in a chamber filled with men and women who seem content to lead this Republic down that very path. You bicker over policies crafted by cowards, you debate endlessly while warships gather on our borders, and you convince yourselves that signing treaties with those who despise us will somehow keep us safe. Do you truly believe that if you bow far enough, if you grovel long enough, that the wolves will spare you?*
>
> ***"We must not be blinded by our own need for power!"***
>
> *I know how many of you see me. You call me a radical. A warmonger. A man too young, too bold, too stubborn to understand the delicate nature of Republic politics. But let me tell you something, Senators: I am not here to play politics. I am here to defend my people, to ensure that Alderaan does not wake up one morning to find itself under siege, to ensure that the citizens we serve are not left at the mercy of those who would see our world burned.*
>
> *You speak of peace as if it is something that can be wished into existence. But peace is not given. Peace is earned. Peace is built on strength. You cannot reason with those who seek to destroy you. You cannot appeal to the morality of those who do not believe you have the will to fight. If Alderaan is to remain free, if this Republic is to endure, then we must be strong enough to command respect. And we must be willing to fight for it!*
>
> *Some of you still believe that we can hide behind our ideals, that we can shelter ourselves from the horrors of war by simply choosing not to engage. But ignorance is not protection! Isolation is not security! And weakness is an invitation to those who see our pacifism not as wisdom, but as surrender!*
>
> *I ask you, **what is peace if it cannot be defended? What is freedom if it can be stolen? What is a Republic if it lacks the will to protect its own people?***

# Tyrion Vixius
## Early LifeTyrion Vixius was born on the outskirts of Yorri, a major agricultural city on Corfai known for producing food and medicinal crops for much of the planet. His family lived a modest life defined by routine and expectation. From a young age, Tyrion understood that he was meant to inherit his father’s farm and continue the same cycle. Life in the outskirts offered little connection to the wider world, but once a month, collectors arrived with holo-projectors containing updates from across Corfai. While others saw this as brief entertainment, Tyrion studied the figures who appeared in those reports, especially the business leaders who shaped entire districts. He became drawn to the idea of influence and long-term decision-making, even though he knew that pursuing such ambitions could distance him from his community and put his future at risk.
## Call to ActionAt seventeen, a fast-spreading crop disease began affecting Yorri’s medicinal plants, reducing yield and raising serious concerns about contamination. Standard protocol required that any potentially infected crops be destroyed to prevent further spread and to protect export integrity. Following that protocol would have meant severe losses for many families, including his own. Tyrion, however, believed from his own quiet observations that not all affected crops were beyond recovery. Acting without approval, he began collecting partially affected plants from neighboring farms, carefully separating and treating them through controlled storage and selective handling. After weeks of work, he became convinced that some of the crops had stabilized. Taking a significant risk, he mixed a portion of these treated plants into the outgoing shipment, blending them with unaffected yield so that the overall quota would still be met.
A month passed under constant tension as Tyrion waited for the results of his decision. At first, nothing happened, and he began to believe his approach had worked. That assumption was shattered when the next shipment cycle arrived. The collectors returned accompanied by inspectors, and Tyrion was ordered to meet with the district leader. There, he explained his actions in full, outlining both his reasoning and his methods, arguing that controlled recovery could reduce waste without compromising safety. The district leader did not approve. A portion of the shipment was rejected, and Tyrion received a formal warning, making it clear that his actions had risked more than his own livelihood. Within Yorri, the response was harsher, with many believing he had endangered the entire district's standing.
Despite this, the incident did not fade. Internal reports documented that the treated crops had not caused the level of contamination initially feared. As similar outbreaks began appearing across other districts, strict destruction protocols proved increasingly inefficient. Tyrion’s approach, though controversial, offered a potential alternative. Controlled trials using variations of his methods produced consistent results under specific conditions. When the collectors returned, Tyrion was approached again and asked to provide full documentation of his process. What had once been treated solely as a violation was now being evaluated as a calculated and potentially scalable solution.
## **Rise in Politics**Recognizing his potential, Tyrion was brought into a district business group and began working in agricultural coordination. Over the next several years, he developed a reputation for practical decision-making and stability-focused planning. By the age of twenty-three, he had proven himself operationally, but advancement beyond that point required more than technical ability. He was selected for further development and spent the next four years undergoing structured training in public relations, negotiation, and political strategy. During this period, he was prepared not only to manage systems, but to represent them, learning how to communicate policy, navigate competing interests, and operate within Corfai’s broader political structure.
At twenty-seven, Tyrion was formally appointed as the primary representative of Yorri Agricultural Co. and electing him to the Corfai Assembly, where major representatives influenced legislation and long-term economic direction. His transition into the Assembly marked a shift from operational leadership to political influence. Drawing on both his early experiences and his formal training, Tyrion proved effective in balancing district needs with planetary priorities, further strengthening the position of Yorri Agricultural Co. within Corfai.
Over time, Tyrion built a reputation for balancing risk with practicality. He focused on long-term stability, improving coordination between producers, and reducing unnecessary losses without compromising standards. His performance as both the Yorri Agricultural Co. representative and a member of the Assembly placed him among the more capable figures within the corporation's heirarchy. By the age of thirty-one, with strong backing from major business interests and a proven record across both economic and political spheres, he entered the candidacy for Governor. His campaign emphasized stability, accountability, and sustainable growth, reflecting the principles that had guided his rise.
At age thirty-two, Tyrion Vixius was elected as the Lieutenant Governor of Corfai. From here, he was tasked with personally becoming Corfai’s Senator, leaving the planet and joining the Galactic Senate to combat the Confederacy of Independent System.
## **Notable Actions****Commerce Guild Ammunition Deal:**Tyrion Vixius was a part of the discussion and vote regarding a trade with the Commerce Guild, trading surplus Republic ammunition for critical fuel, food supplies, and credits. The deal helped stabilize wartime supply shortages across multiple systems and provided the Republic with essential food.**Carida Reconstruction Funding:**Following heavy wartime damage to Carida, Tyrion Vixius along with Valerian Draxus helped fund the large-scale reconstruction through the Financial & Commerce Committee. The funds restored key infrastructure, allowing Carida to quickly return to its role as a strategic military and logistics hub.**Intergalactic Banking Clan Loan:**Tyrion Vixius negotiated a 3,000,000-credit loan with the Intergalactic Banking Clan to stabilize Republic wartime liquidity. The agreement balanced strict repayment guarantees with Senate oversight requirements, ensuring immediate financial relief.**Republic Construction Budgets:**Tyrion Vixius helped design large-scale construction budgets funding planetary defenses, industrial hubs, trade hubs, & civil infrastructure across multiple Republic-aligned planets.**Red Crest Initiative:**Tyrion Vixius negotiated alongside Valerian Draxus to fund the “Red Crest Initiative,” a humanitarian aid program designed to stabilize failing systems through emergency infrastructure repair and economic support. Operating under the Jedi Order, it deployed fast-moving funding and volunteer services to restore essential buildings and assist the injured in crisis zones.**Judicial Department Creation:**Tyrion Vixius pitched ideas and voted on the creation of the Judicial Department to unify fragmented legal enforcement across the galaxy**Chancellor Amedda Impeachment:**Tyrion Vixius co-signed the impeachment bill against Chancellor Mas Amedda, stating how he was never officially voted in and has been an acting chancellor since his inauguration. His involvement added more legitimacy to the case and intensified political pressure during the proceedings.**Senate Bombing Investigation:**Tyrion Vixius led an official investigation in regard to the Senate bombing, uncovering security failures, internal sabotage, and corruption-linked networks that could be traced far up the hierarchy.**Galactic Senate Reformation:**Tyrion Vixius contributed to the reformation of the fractured Galactic Senate, gathering all surviving senators and coordinating the inauguration of the acting-chancellor Padme Amidala.
# Valerian Draxus
## Early LifeValerian Draxus comes from the planet of Rhen Var, one of the most volatile and dangerous planets in the galaxy. He was born into the infamous Draxus family that ruled the planet for centuries. Valerian grew up only knowing the cold and the sheer will to survive. While his family was the most powerful on the planet, he did not grow up in a luxury apartment like people from Coruscant, but instead inside a citadel built into the side of a mountain. Their family could barely ensure the safe transportation of food and sometimes would starve for days because the transports would be lost to the storm. Valerian, though young wanted to change this and save his people from suffering. Though this was not an easy task, as the planet is currently in an ice age and has been for many generations.
## Paramilitary CareerDespite the strength of Rhen Var’s citadel civilization, life on the frozen world remained unforgiving. Entire settlements could disappear beneath storms, supply caravans could be lost in the glaciers, and survival was never guaranteed. Valerian’s father, recognizing both the dangers of the planet and the potential within his son, made a decision that would alter the course of Valerian’s life.When Valerian reached the age of eighteen, a long-abandoned communications outpost on Rhen Var was finally restored to operation. For the first time in years, the planet was able to establish a reliable transmission link with the Galactic Republic and its member systems. Through this connection, Valerian’s father arranged something unprecedented for the young heir of House Draxus.Valerian would depart aboard a transport vessel bound for Coruscant, the heart of the Republic and the center of galactic governance. The transition was staggering. For a man raised among frozen citadels and isolated settlements, Coruscant’s endless cityscape stretching across an entire planet felt like another universe entirely.Upon arrival in the Senate District, Valerian met with senior officers of the Senate Guard, the elite force tasked with protecting the Galactic Senate and its dignitaries. His father had already secured the necessary arrangements, ensuring Valerian would have both employment and a place to live. The intention was clear: Valerian was to experience a life beyond the endless struggle of Rhen Var.For the first time in his life, survival was not dictated by the weather.
## Return to Rhen VarAt the age of twenty-five, after nearly seven years of service within the Senate Guard, Valerian received a message from Rhen Var that would change his life. His father, the ruling head of House Draxus and First Speaker of the Rhen Varrian Assembly, was dying.Valerian immediately left Coruscant and returned to his frozen home world. The journey felt far different from the one he had taken years earlier. As a young man he had left Rhen Var seeking opportunity beyond its brutal climate. Now he returned knowing the future of his world would soon rest on his shoulders.When he arrived at the citadel city of Cryost, the major noble houses had already begun gathering in anticipation of the transition of power.Valerian was granted a final meeting with his father within the ancient citadel of House Draxus. The elder Draxus reminded him that ruling Rhen Var was never about power, it was about survival. Their civilization existed only because generations of leaders had endured hardship and placed their people above themselves.Shortly after this meeting, his father passed away.With his father's death, Valerian inherited House Draxus, the oldest noble family on Rhen Var. By tradition, the head of the house also became First Speaker of the Rhen Varrian Assembly, responsible for guiding the planet’s government and maintaining unity among the noble houses.Despite his young age, Valerian moved quickly to stabilize the Assembly and reaffirm cooperation between the great houses of Rhen Var. His years observing politics within the Senate had given him a calm and disciplined approach to leadership.Under his early rule, the planet’s security forces and citadel administration were strengthened, ensuring stability across Rhen Var’s scattered settlements.
## Rise in PoliticsRecognizing Valerian’s experience beyond their world, the Assembly later chose him to represent Rhen Var in the Galactic Senate. His return to Coruscant was symbolic. Years earlier, he had stood guard in the Senate halls as a young soldier. Now he returned as the official voice of his home world. Yet unlike many senators, Valerian never forgot the lessons of Rhen Var. On his world, survival had never been guaranteed. And it was now his responsibility to ensure it remained possible. Before he returned, he gave one last address to his people, to the planet.
## Notable ActionsValerian has accomplished multiple notable actions throughout his tenure. All of his contributions are well known and well recognized.
**Republic Sanctions & Embargo Act**
Valerian Draxus introduced this act to economically isolate the Confederacy of Independent Systems and any entities found supporting it. The legislation prohibited trade, financial dealings, and material assistance to hostile separatist powers, while authorizing the seizure of assets belonging to those aiding the enemy.
**Republic Economic Security Act** Draxus is responsible for the creation of this act to protect the integrity of the Republic’s financial system during wartime. It reinforced Republic authority over the issuance and legitimacy of Republic Credits while criminalizing acts such as counterfeiting, embezzlement, fraud, and other financial crimes deemed harmful to the state.**Food Reserve Establishment Act** In response to growing wartime instability and supply concerns, Draxus backed the creation of a strategic Republic food reserve. The act ensured that emergency food stockpiles would be maintained to support both civilian populations and military operations during shortages, sieges, or logistical disruptions.
**The First Republic Fiscal Authorization Act** This act served as one of the Republic’s earliest wartime funding measures, authorizing large scale expenditures for government and military operations. It provided direct financial support to key institutions such as the Republic Navy while reinforcing the principle of fiscal oversight and accountability during the war.
## Address to the People of Rhen Var
> People of Rhen Var,
>
> I speak to you today not merely as your First Speaker, nor only as your Senator in the Galactic Republic, but as one who was born among the same frozen mountains and citadels that shelter you now. Our world is not like the others of this galaxy.
>
> We do not live in warm valleys or prosperous cities that stretch endlessly toward the horizon. We live upon a world where the cold is relentless, where storms bury entire settlements, and where survival itself has always demanded discipline and unity.
>
> Yet despite this, we have endured.
>
> For centuries, our ancestors carved fortress cities into the mountains. They built citadels strong enough to withstand the winter and tunnels deep enough to shelter our people beneath the ice. They did not do this because life on Rhen Var was easy.
>
> They did it because survival required it.
>
> And that lesson is one we must never forget.
>
> Beyond our frozen skies, the galaxy grows increasingly unstable. Alliances shift, powers rise, and whispers of conflict spread from the Outer Rim to the Core itself. Many worlds still believe that peace will simply continue forever, that war is a relic of history.
>
> But history teaches us otherwise.
>
> Civilizations fall when they mistake comfort for security. They fall when leaders believe that hope alone will keep danger away.
>
> Rhen Var has never made that mistake.
>
> We are a people forged by hardship. We understand what it means to endure when others would collapse. The citadels that stand today were not built by dreamers, they were built by those who understood the reality of the dangers to come, the reality of what WAR does to people.
>
> And so I say this to you now:
>
> Whatever may unfold across the galaxy, Rhen Var will endure, Rhen Var will survive, Rhen Var will still EXIST. We will remain vigilant. We will remain united. And we will continue to do what our ancestors did before us prepare for whatever may come. For generations our house has carried a simple truth, a truth that has guided our world through its darkest centuries: “Broken by the past, forged for the future.”
>
> That is who we are. And that is who we will remain. People of Rhen Var, the galaxy may change, but our resolve will not. We endure.
# Varkis Drayce
## Early Life
Varkis Drayce hails from Coruscant, the political and cultural epicenter of the Galactic Republic. Born into the prestigious **Drayce family**, he is the apart of a noble lineage that has served the Republic for centuries. His ancestors were important figures of influence, holding positions as senators, admirals, and advisors in the Republic’s history. Raised amidst the towering spires of Coruscant’s elite districts, Drayce was steeped in the traditions of nobility, educated by the finest minds, and trained in both military strategy and political maneuvering from a young age. This upbringing instilled in him a sense of duty to uphold—and expand—the Republic’s legacy.
## Military Career
Following the path of his forebears, Drayce entered the Republic Navy, where his noble birth and sharp intellect propelled him swiftly through the ranks. As an admiral, he distinguished himself as a formidable leader, blending family honor with personal ambition. His notable military achievements include:
- The Battle of Ord Mantell: Commanding a Republic fleet, Drayce crushed a pirate coalition threatening trade routes in the Bright Jewel system with cunning blockade strategies.
- The Zygerrian Slave Empire Suppression: He spearheaded a covert mission that dismantled a resurgent Zygerrian slave network, safeguarding the Outer Rim from chaos.
- The Mandalorian Border Skirmishes: His calculated deployments along the Mandalorian frontier thwarted potential invasions, securing Republic stability.
These victories cemented his reputation as a military genius and his belief that the Republic required a stronger, more assertive presence to survive its challenges.
## Rise in Politics
After retiring from the Navy, Drayce transitioned effortlessly into the political arena, inheriting his family’s ancestral Senate seat for Coruscant. His noble heritage and decorated military record earned him immediate respect among his peers. Yet, Drayce was no mere caretaker of tradition—he sought to reshape the Republic into a hyper-military empire through his philosophy of Republic Accelerationism. He argued that the Republic’s bureaucratic inefficiencies and pacifist leanings were weaknesses that threatened its survival, advocating instead for centralized power and martial strength rooted in the nobility’s historical leadership.
## Anti-Jedi Stance
Drayce harbored a deep mistrust of the Jedi Order, a sentiment shaped by both his noble upbringing and historical perspective. He saw the Jedi as a rival power bloc, their influence encroaching on the authority of the Republic’s traditional elite. He often criticized their role in the Old Republic era, blaming their failures for past galactic turmoil and crediting noble families like his own with the Republic’s recovery.
> *The Jedi utterly failed to defend the Republic in the Old Republic. Their hubris allowed the Sith to ravage our worlds, and it was the nobility, families like mine, who rebuilt what they could not protect. We cannot afford such weakness again.*
To Drayce, the Jedi’s reliance on the Force and their peacekeeping ideals undermined the structured governance he believed only the aristocracy could provide. In a private moment, he revealed his imperial vision:
> *The Republic is a shadow of its potential. It needs a guiding hand to become an empire, unyielding, eternal, and led by those who understand true power.*
## Dueling Political Opponents
Senator Varkis Drayce’s commanding presence in the Galactic Senate was not limited to his fiery rhetoric or strategic mind; he was also known for his penchant for settling political disputes through ritualized duels, a tradition rooted in the noble houses of Coruscant. Eschewing the lightsaber—a weapon he associated with the Jedi Order he so despised—Drayce wielded a vibrosword, a finely crafted blade forged from phrik alloy, lightweight yet capable of cutting through durasteel. Named "Axiom", the weapon was a family heirloom passed down through generations of the
Drayce lineage, its hilt adorned with intricate engravings depicting the triumphs of his ancestors.
Drayce viewed these duels as a test of honor and conviction, a means to expose the weakness of his opponents—particularly those he deemed unfit to guide the Republic, such as alien senators or pacifist humans. While lethal combat was forbidden within the Senate chambers, Drayce frequently challenged his rivals to ceremonial bouts in the Senatorial Combat Arena, a lesser-known venue beneath the Senatorial District where nobles historically resolved disputes. These duels, fought with vibroswords set to a non-lethal stun setting, were as much theater as they were combat, drawing crowds of senators, aides, and Coruscanti elites eager to witness Drayce’s martial prowess.
**Notable Duels**
- **The Clash with Senator T Undara (966 RSY)**: Early in his Senate tenure, Drayce faced off against T Undara, a Twi’lek senator from Ryloth who opposed his Hutt Trade Embargo Proposal. Branding Undara a *“spineless appeaser,”* Drayce dominated the duel with precise, aggressive strikes, forcing the Twi’lek to yield in under two minutes. He later remarked, "*The vibrosword reveals what words conceal—Undara’s cowardice proves the Outer Rim cannot lead."*
- **The Standoff with Senator Kael Vorskan (973 RSY)**: After the failure of the Mon Calamari Exclusion Act, Drayce challenged Vorskan, a human senator from Alderaan and vocal pacifist, to defend his *“weak-willed ideals.”* The duel lasted nearly ten minutes, with Drayce’s relentless offense clashing against Vorskan’s defensive agility. Drayce emerged victorious, leaving Vorskan bruised and humiliated, solidifying his reputation as an unyielding force.
- **The Symbolic Bout with Senator Gorrak Nol (979 RSY)**: A rare duel against a Hutt aide representing Nar Shaddaa’s interests, this encounter saw Drayce wield "Axiom" with theatrical flair, disarming Nol’s vibroblade in a single flourish. The victory fueled his anti-alien rhetoric, as he declared, **"Even their champions falter before human resolve."**
**Philosophy of the Blade**
Drayce saw the vibrosword as an extension of his belief in order and strength, a tool to cut through the Republic’s bureaucratic stagnation. He often spoke of the weapon’s symbolism in private circles:
> *"The vibrosword is discipline incarnate—sharp, unyielding, and free of the mysticism that clouds the Jedi’s blades. It is the weapon of a noble, not a monk."*
His dueling style mirrored his personality: methodical yet ferocious, blending the refined techniques of Coruscanti swordmasters with the ruthless efficiency of a military tactician. Critics accused him of using these spectacles to intimidate dissenters, while supporters praised his commitment to the ancient traditions of the Core Worlds’ aristocracy. Regardless, Drayce’s vibrosword duels became a hallmark of his political career, reinforcing his image as a senator who backed his words with steel.
## Creation of the Clone Army
In 965 RSY, a decade before his famed "War Is Brewing" speech, Varkis Drayce secretly collaborated with Jedi Master [Dooku](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/count-dooku "Count Dooku") of Serenno **to create a Clone Army, a move shrouded in mystery at the time.** The project began when the Kaminoans, a reclusive species skilled in cloning, approached the Republic with an offer: a genetically engineered security force to bolster its defenses amid rising Outer Rim unrest. Drayce, then a rising senator, saw this as a chance to forge a military capable of enforcing his vision of order. Dooku, the only Jedi he respected for his noble heritage and pragmatic ideals, joined him, disillusioned with the Jedi Council’s restraint.
The operation was concealed from the Senate and Jedi Order, masked as a modest expansion of the Republic Judicial Forces. Drayce and Dooku oversaw the Kaminoans’ work, commissioning an initial batch of clone battalions—among them the 104th Battalion, dubbed the "Wolf Pack." These early clones, bred from a yet-unnamed template, were deployed under the guise of "stress testing" to refine their specialties:
- 104th Battalion (Wolf Pack): Under Plo Koon and CC-8917 "Lupis", they mastered search-and-rescue, excelling in operations like the Ryndellia Incident (978 RSY), extracting a stranded convoy from pirate clutches.
## Anti-Alien Xenophobia
Drayce’s anti-alien sentiments were rooted in his noble heritage and the historical dominance of human-led Core Worlds in the Republic’s early years. He frequently expressed the view that non-human species lacked the discipline and loyalty necessary for galactic governance, often citing historical conflicts—such as the Tionese Conflict in 312 RSY, where the non-human-led Tion Hegemony challenged Republic authority—as evidence of their supposed inferiority. Drayce argued that the Republic’s survival depended on human leadership, a belief that fueled his distrust of alien-led factions like the Trade Federation and the Separatist coalition.
##### Notable Events
Drayce’s sentiment led to several notable events that highlighted his ideology and strained his relationships with non-human senators:
The Hutt Trade Embargo Proposal (965 RSY): Early in his Senate tenure, Drayce proposed a trade embargo against Hutt-controlled worlds, accusing the Hutt species of being "inherently criminal" and a " blight on galactic commerce." He claimed their "slug-like nature" predisposed them to corruption, ignoring the economic contributions of Hutt Space to the Republic. The proposal was narrowly defeated after fierce opposition from Outer Rim senators, but it cemented Drayce’s reputation as a xenophobe. He remarked:
> *The Hutts are a scourge upon the galaxy, their slug-like nature predisposing them to deceit and crime. We cannot allow such vermin to taint the Republic’s commerce.*
The Mon Calamari Exclusion Act (972 RSY): Drayce sponsored a bill to limit Mon Calamari representation in the Senate, arguing that their "aquatic sensibilities" made them unfit for galactic governance. He infamously remarked, "The Mon Calamari belong in their oceans, not in our chambers," sparking outrage among non-human delegations. The bill failed, but it further alienated Drayce from alien allies and fueled protests on Mon Cala. In a Senate session addressing Outer Rim representation in 970 RSY:
> *The Outer Rim breeds chaos because its species lack the discipline of the Core. We humans built this Republic, and we alone should steer its course.*
## Famous Speech
In 980 RSY, Senator Varkis Drayce delivered one of the most famous speeches of his career, later dubbed the "War Is Brewing" Speech, during a heated Senate debate on military funding. At the time, the Republic was facing growing unrest in the Outer Rim, where a Separatist coalition was forming, driven by discontent with the Republic’s centralized governance. Simultaneously, the Trade Federation, a powerful economic entity, was amassing a significant military force, including droid armies, under the guise of protecting its trade routes. These developments alarmed many in the Senate, particularly as the Republic lacked a standing army to counter such threats.
Drayce’s speech was a masterful oration, blending the great history of the Republic with a warning of impending conflict. He condemned the Separatist coalition, the Trade Federation, and the Jedi Order, while proposing a radical solution: the creation of a Clone Army, an Army that was ready for use as of the speech, in collaboration with Jedi Master Dooku. Dooku, a noble from the wealthy House of Dooku on Serenno, was the only Jedi Drayce respected, as both shared a vision for a stronger Republic, unencumbered by the Jedi’s pacifist ideals. The full text of the speech is as follows:
> *Esteemed colleagues of the Galactic Senate, I stand before you today not as a harbinger of doom, but as a student of history, a history that speaks to us with utter clarity, if only we would listen.*
>
> ***War is brewing... The galaxy has been at peace for centuries, how would it fare in a galactic war?** Let us reflect on the lessons of our past to understand the peril of our present. In the earliest days of our Republic, mere decades after its founding, we faced chaos that nearly tore us asunder.*
>
> *The Great Hyperspace War, in 100 RSY, saw rogue warlords exploit our nascent hyperspace lanes, plundering worlds like Alderaan and Corellia with impunity. The Jedi, tasked with our defense, faltered—their numbers were too few, their focus too scattered, and their reliance on the Force blinded them to the practical needs of a galaxy in turmoil. It was the nobility, families like mine, the Drayces of Coruscant—who rallied the first fleets, who forged alliances with the Core Worlds, who rebuilt what the Jedi could not protect.*
>
> *And yet, we did not learn. Two centuries later, in 312 RSY, the Tionese Conflict erupted. The Tion Hegemony, a rival power, sought to dominate the Perlemian Trade Route, cutting off Republic worlds from vital resources. Again, the Jedi hesitated, preaching diplomacy while Tionese warships burned our colonies. It was the Republic’s noble houses, not the Jedi, who funded the counteroffensive that secured our borders.*
>
> *Now, in 980 RSY, we stand at a precipice. The Separatist coalition is forming in the Outer Rim, driven by worlds who chafe under our governance, who whisper of independence while sharpening their blades. Worse still, the Trade Federation, led by those avaricious Neimoidians, whose greed knows no bounds, as is the nature of their kind, is amassing a droid army: an uncountable amount of battle droids, cloaked under the guise of ‘trade protection.’ I ask you, senators, what trade route requires an army of such scale?*
>
> *Their intentions are clear: they seek to dominate, to dictate terms to the Republic through force. And what of the Jedi, our supposed guardians? **The Jedi believe they are innocent peacekeepers, in their ignorance, they'll ignite a war.** They meditate in their temples while the galaxy arms itself; they speak of balance while the Outer Rim festers with dissent. Their inaction is a spark to the tinder of rebellion, and we will all burn for it.*
>
> ***The board has already been set… War is coming**, and we stand on the brink of a conflict that will test the very foundations of our Republic. But fear not, for I have ensured we are not unprepared. In collaboration with Jedi Master Dooku, a noble of Serenno’s House of Dooku and the only Jedi I have ever respected for his higher ideals for this Republic, I have overseen the creation of a Clone Army, a genetically engineered force, loyal and disciplined, now ready to serve as the Republic’s shield and sword.*
>
> *I personally directed their training regimen, forging them into an army the likes of which the galaxy has never seen: unmatched in prowess, unwavering in their absolute loyalty to the Republic. Dooku, like myself, understands the need for order and strength, a vision born of our noble heritage and tempered by the failures of the past. This Clone Army will ensure our security, deter our enemies, and restore order where chaos reigns.*
>
> *We cannot rely on the Jedi alone, nor on the fractured militias of a thousand worlds. With this army, the Republic will rise as a unified power! Let us not repeat the mistakes of our past. Let us act with the clarity of history, with the strength of our heritage, and with the resolve to forge a Republic that endures. The choice is ours, will we be consumed, or will we prevail?*
>
> - Senator Varkis Drayce
Drayce’s speech was a call for militarization, warning of an impending galactic conflict and condemning both the Separatist coalition and the Jedi Order for their roles in the escalating crisis. Delivered with fiery conviction, the speech resonated deeply with many senators, particularly those from Core Worlds who feared the Republic’s fragility.
## Influence and Impact
Senator Varkis Drayce remains a polarizing figure in the Galactic Senate as of 981 RSY. His warnings of war have proven prescient, as tensions with the Separatist coalition and the Trade Federation continue to escalate. His anti-Jedi stance, anti-alien racism, and imperial vision have divided the Senate, but his noble lineage, military honors—symbolized by his medals—and 20 years of political experience lend him significant credibility among certain factions.

# A-04 "Cross"
Named Cross on the account of a bad shooting habit Cross was different from the other clones in his batch, noted for exceptional leadership and tactics on simulations and combat excellency Cross initially joined the[ 104th](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/104th-armored-battalion) as a first batch becoming an integral part of Artic Company. During his time in Artic he would progress the ranks becoming one of the first Non Commissioned Officers and a Platoon Leader founding "Vanguard" platoon, he became well respected among his comrades and built a reputation for his competency during the various challenges and tribulations the 104th would face whilst he was attached

## Service Record
His direct battlefield service started on Carida during the early phases of the CIS's proxy war using the IRC with one of the first conflicts being with the 104th and 91st, a poor call from command resulted in his squad being nearly wiped out and Cross being one of the only survivors giving him an early taste of the cost of war, as the skirmish continued the 104th were bounced to Naboo and then back to Carida where Cross went on separate missions with the Jedi Commander Dagan Rex and got closer with his brothers and the legion leading up to the [Siege of Carida](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-siege-of-carida). The first major battle with the CIS on ground nobody knew what to expect Cross lead on the frontlines with his platoon facing threats such as tanks, droideka's and the Sith Assassin [Asaj Ventress](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/asajj-ventress "Asajj Ventress") losing many of his brothers and people he grew to come close with.
On the first Carida ambush led a squad of 12, lead the squad that saved Dagan Rex from IRC custody killing 2 of their officers, led a Platoon of 35 troops during the IRC attacks on Naboo and the second ambush, lead a platoon of 40 men during the siege of Carida, killed two rancors personally assisting in the elimination of over 6 saving 2 jedi from their grabs, lead the ARC contingent during the Defence of Alderaan, took a pyke prisoner, called wat tambor a good boy.

**He was promoted to Alpha Class forcing him to leave the 104th armoured battalion** taking part in missions on Tatooine, Rhen, Coruscant, Naboo and republic space promoting him again to the XO of Alpha Class where he currently serves.
The majority of people Cross knew and cares about have been killed in the field of battle over Carida, Christophsis and various other fronts being the only survivor from his initial clone squad and one of the two first batch's from the 104th left alive.

# ARC-9796 "Serce"
## Overview
ARC-9796, designated “Serce,” was part of a late-generation ARC batch engineered during Phase I enhancements on Kamino. Unlike standard troopers, Serce exhibited an abnormal balance of tactical foresight and emotional awareness, traits often considered unstable in earlier ARC iterations, but refined in his batch for independent command viability.
Serce and his closest companion, [CC-8715 "Samson"](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/cc-8715-samson), were trained side-by-side from their earliest days in the cloning vats through Phase III ARC conditioning. Both demonstrated exceptional adaptability in unconventional warfare, excelling in reconnaissance, rapid-response tactics, and leadership under isolation. Serce took a unique trait of prioritizing long-term survivability over expendable victory. During his early deployment in the Original Carida Campaign, Serce’s survival during the Wall Massacre changed his view. Forced to evade, observe, and outmaneuver enemy forces alone for an extended period.
## Military Career
As he rose through the ranks, from BARC Captain to Colonel, Serce became known across the 91st for operating with minimal complaciency. Serce filled the gap and restructured the battlefield planning in a short amount of time. His leadership style blends independence with regimental cohesion. Unlike many ARCs, Serce remains embedded with his men rather than detached, earning fierce loyalty.
Among the 91st, he is regarded as one of the best leaders the 91st has ever seen. Towards the present time of his career as a soldier for the Republic, Serce has been awarded 3 medals for his loyalty and dedication. Firstly, a medal of stellar service awarded to him by Neyo, as well as a graduation medal later awarded for his valor during his training at the [Republic Clone Academy](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/republic-clone-academy). He was then awarded a Republic Cross by [CC-1345 "Dofo"](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/cc-1345-dofo).

## Notable Engagements
#### Carida War
During a catastrophic defensive failure now referred to as the Wall Massacre, Serce was the sole surviving member of his unit after a coordinated enemy breakthrough. This event marked his transition from a standard trooper to an ARC trooper.
During the Carida War on Pirates, Serce was a Captain of a BARC company, He led high-speed reconnaissance and strike operations across the Carida front. Under his command, the company maintained the lowest casualty rate of any deployed unit during the war. His use of mobile warfare, staggered engagement zones, and preemptive extraction routes minimized losses even in high-risk operations; also, the only significant casualties sustained under his command came during direct encounters with Asajj Ventress, engagements in which Serce adapted quickly, ordering disengagements rather than sacrificing troops in unwinnable duels.
[](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/uploads/images/gallery/2026-04/carida.png)
#### Christophsis Campaign
Serving as a Captain, Serce was responsible for mission planning across multiple operations, working closely with his Lieutenant to coordinate troop movements, supply lines, and orbital support. When his Commander was incapacitated mid-campaign, Serce assumed full battalion command without formal promotion. He successfully coordinated close air support with Republic Navy forces, executing synchronized assaults that broke entrenched CIS positions. Led all of 87th as an acting commander during Samson's absence multiple times. Worked closely and coordinated well with navy, 501st, and 41st during every mission. Commanded all of 87th for the Capital City District of Christophsis.
[](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/uploads/images/gallery/2026-04/c-buildings-lame-ass-serce-cropped.png)
#### Ryloth
As Colonel, Serce assumed full operational control of his battalion while his Commander was listed as Leave of Absence. Without direct oversight, he planned and executed every mission across the campaign. In one of the most notable engagements, Serce led a 30-man force deep into CIS-controlled territory to capture a fortified forward outpost. Through careful planning, staggered assaults, and controlled aggression, the objective was secured with only three casualties, an outcome considered exceptional given the circumstances. His leadership during Ryloth solidified his reputation as a commander capable of sustaining high operational success with minimal losses, even in isolation.

# CC-1345 "Dofo"
## Early Life
RC-1345, later known by the name Dofo, was a human clone grown on the ocean world of Kamino from the genetic template of the Mandalorian bounty hunter Jango Fett, whose DNA served as the foundation of the Republic’s Grand Army. Unlike standard clone troopers, RC-series commandos were engineered with subtle genetic and psychological enhancements designed to produce soldiers capable of independent action, advanced tactical reasoning, and extreme battlefield adaptability.From the earliest stages of development, clone commandos were separated from the broader clone population and organized into four-man operational units known as “pods,” reflecting traditional Mandalorian squad doctrine. This structure emphasized brotherhood, initiative, and absolute reliance on one’s squad rather than large-scale formation warfare.
## Rise to Power
Following the completion of his advanced commando training on Kamino, RC-1345 was deployed into active service as the Captain of a Republic Commando Squad, entrusted with independent operations requiring precision, secrecy, and decisive execution. From the outset, Dofo distinguished himself through exceptional battlefield awareness and calculated decision-making, successfully completing numerous high-risk assignments without operational failure.Unlike many officers who rose through seniority alone, Dofo’s promotions were earned through consistent mission success and demonstrated leadership under pressure. His command style balanced Mandalorian-inspired aggression with disciplined Republic doctrine, allowing his unit to operate effectively in both covert special operations and large-scale military engagements.His early reputation among fellow commandos and clone officers was that of a pragmatic and uncompromising leader respected for protecting his men yet feared for the ruthless efficiency with which he executed objectives. Reports frequently noted his ability to adapt when plans collapsed, often salvaging missions considered unrecoverable by conventional standards.As his operational record expanded, Dofo advanced rapidly through the Republic military hierarchy:
- Republic Commando Captain
- Republic Commando Colonel
- Commander of the Republic Commandos
- Regimental Commander of the Special Operations BrigadeDuring his tenure as a senior commando officer, Dofo forged strong working relationships with naval commanders, intelligence officers, and frontline battalion leaders, believing that special operations forces should act as the strategic bridge between branches of the Republic war machine. These alliances greatly expanded the influence of the Commandos within Republic High Command.His rise was not without controversy. Some traditional officers criticized his willingness to bypass rigid military protocol when operational success demanded it, arguing that his methods bordered on excessive autonomy. Supporters, however, credited these same traits as the reason behind the Republic’s most decisive victories in asymmetric warfare.By the time of his appointment as Regimental Commander of the Special Operations Brigade, Dofo’s reputation had reached its peak. Within the Republic, he was widely regarded as a transformative military asset a commander capable of turning small, specialized forces into strategic instruments capable of altering the course of entire campaigns.
## Military Career
RC-1345’s military career evolved beyond conventional commando service as the Clone Wars intensified and the Republic required leaders capable of coordinating unconventional warfare across multiple fronts. RC-1345 has earned the rank of Republic Commando Captain, Colonel, Commander, and now the Regimental Commander of the Special Operations Brigade. Each promotion followed operational success rather than political sponsorship. Dofo became known within Military High Command as a commander who consistently delivered results under extreme operational pressure.
Throughout RC-1345's military career he has participated in numerous classified campaigns against Confederacy of Independent Systems strongholds, primarily focusing on:
- Deep infiltration operations targeting CIS logistics networks
- Planetary reconnaissance preceding Republic invasions
- Counter-insurgency and intelligence stabilization missions
- Special operations support during major fleet engagementsHis doctrine emphasized preparing the battlefield before conventional forces arrived, significantly reducing Republic casualties during later invasions.
As Regimental Commander, Dofo has authority over the Republic Intelligence Bureau, The Republic Marauders, Advance Recon Commandos, Republic Commando Units and Advanced Recon Force. This marked one of the first instances in which intelligence, reconnaissance, and elite strike forces operated under a single unified command structure. Dofo, has made multiple major decisions as Regimental Commander, he has integrated intelligence operations directly into invasion planning, authorized decentralized battlefield authority for elite clone units, prioritized precision strikes over prolonged attritional warfare, and established the Special Operations as a strategic command rather than an auxiliary support. Despite success, critics within the traditional High Command argued that Dofo’s reliance on autonomous units weakened centralized military control. Several Senators expressed concern over classified operations conducted with limited civilian oversight. Dofo’s leadership permanently altered Republic military doctrine. Special Operations forces transitioned from isolated specialist teams into a central pillar of Republic war strategy, influencing how future campaigns were planned and executed.
## Personal Life
Dofo is described as disciplined, calculating, and composed under pressure. He rarely raises his voice and commands authority through presence rather than intimidation. Among clone troopers, he is regarded as a commander who understands them not as assets, but as brothers. Outside of combat operations, Dofo dedicates his time to weapons maintenance, tactical simulation review, and physical conditioning routines rooted in Mandalorian training culture. Personal recreation remains minimal, reflecting a life shaped almost entirely by military service.
## Speeches
#### "Before the Battle Begins"
> The enemy prepares for armies.
> They prepare for fleets.
> They do not prepare for us.
>
> Our duty is not to fight the longest battle
> it is to end the war before the first shot is fired.
> We move first. We strike precisely.
> And the Republic endures.
# CC-1870 “Sand”
## Early LifeCC-1870, later designated “Sand,” was a Generation 1 clone trooper produced on Kamino during the early expansion of the [Republic’s](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/galactic-republic "Galactic Republic") cloning program. Unlike later clone batches, Generation 1 units were developed with reduced behavioral inhibitors, allowing for greater independence, adaptability, and individual decision-making in combat environments.From his earlies stages of training, Sand displayed a combat style that diverged from standard clone doctrine. While most clones favored aggressive engagement and rapid assault tactics, Sand consistently demonstrated a preference for measured positioning, battlefield awareness, and controlled execution. Kaminoan overseers initially noted this as a deviation from optimal efficiency, but trainers recognized it as a form of discipline rather than hesitation.Selected for advanced command conditioning, Sand trained extensively in both conventional warfare and close-quarters combat, including the martial art of Teräs Käsi. His training emphasized endurance, adaptability, and maintaining operational effectiveness in prolonged engagements. By the time the Clone Army was formally established in 975 RSY, Sand had already proven himself capable of independent leadership.
## Rise through CommandSand’s rise through the Republic military was defined by consistent operational success and the ability to maintain control in unstable or deteriorating combat situations.He was first appointed as the Commander of the [91st Reconnaissance Corps](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/91st-mobile-reconnaissance-corps "91st Mobile Reconnaissance Corps"), where he established the unit as a forward-operating force specializing in deep reconnaissance and pre-invasion battlefield preparation. Under his command, the 91st focused on operating ahead of main Republic forces, identifying weaknesses in enemy defenses, and shaping engagements before they began.Following continued success, Sand was promoted to Army Regimental Commander while simultaneously receiving a commission as a Rear Admiral in the Republic Navy. This dual role granted him authority across both ground and naval theaters, allowing him to coordinate operations on a larger scale than most clone officers.His promotion was based entirely on performance rather than seniority, with High Command recognizing his ability to maintain cohesion and effectiveness under sustained pressure. He then through trial and error established much better communications with that of all of the Republic’s Command Structures, establishing the Republic Central Command, or Centcom, so all forms of Command, through the Military, the Navy, the Jedi, and the Senate no longer had issues receiving information from operations.As the Marshal Commander, Sand has operational control over the Special Operations Brigade, the entire security structure, and all of GAR’s Army Battalions, 2nd to that of the Grand Marshal, CC - 4304 “Combine”. At the time of this bio log, currently under him being [CC - 1345 “Dofo”](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/cc-1345-dofo "CC-1345 "Dofo""), the SOB Director and Regimental Commander, CC - 2507 “Musk” the Regimental Commander of all Republic Security Forces, and a man he depends on greatly for his invasions and strategic advice, CC - 3636 “Wolffe” the Regimental Commander of the Army. From here Sand wishes to keep building his relations with those around him and continually try to secure victory for the Republic and save its allies from the evil clutches of the Confederacy of Independent Systems.
## Military CareerSand’s military career expanded significantly during the Republic campaign to reclaim strategic systems from Separatist control, most notably during the [Liberation of Carida](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-siege-of-carida "The Siege of Carida") (980 RSY).During the engagement, Sand became the sole acting Admiralty after the loss of senior naval command. With only five Venator-class Star Destroyers operating on skeleton crews, he assumed full control of Republic naval forces against the 4th Subjugation Fleet.The opposing force included multiple capital ships and heavy frigates, placing Sand at a significant numerical disadvantage. Rather than seeking decisive engagement, the battle unfolded across three separate attritional engagements, relying on continuous repair efforts to keep Republic vessels operational under sustained pressure.The campaign resulted in the loss of the VSD Invictus, reportedly destroyed during combat with the Separatist assassin [Asajj Ventress](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/asajj-ventress "Asajj Ventress") using sabotage, but Sand maintained command cohesion long enough to secure a Republic victory and reclaim the system.Following Carida, Sand was promoted to Marshal Commander, and promoted to Reserve Admiral in the Navy, then being assigned to Task Force Sabre, where he was given command of an independent fleet element.
## The Spear FleetThe Spear Fleet, commanded by Marshal Commander Sand, functions as the Republic’s primary reconnaissance fleet, tasked with probing and weakening enemy defenses before full-scale invasions are launched.Operating ahead of main Republic forces, the fleet is responsible for:
- Testing enemy strength and defensive positioning
- Applying sustained pressure to weaken resistance
- Preparing targets for large-scale assault operationsUnlike standard fleets, the Spear Fleet is not intended to deliver decisive victories on its own. Its role is to ensure that when Republic forces commit to battle, the enemy is already degraded and vulnerable.Sand commands the fleet from his flagship:**VSD – Fortitude***The hull of the Fortitude bears the marking:***“RIP Mixup”***A tribute to a 5th Fleet Battalion Commander who sacrificed himself aboard the VSD Tribunal, ensuring the evacuation of his men before the ship was lost.*
## Combat Training & SpecializationSand has trained extensively in Teräs Käsi, utilizing the same combat forms taught to Republic Marauders. His proficiency extends across a wide range of Republic weaponry, and he is also capable of piloting starfighters when required.He is particularly known for his mastery of the "Spitting Rawl Technique", this technique is regarded as one of the most powerful unarmed combat maneuvers within Teräs Käsi. It consists of:
- A sideways aerial flip
- Three downward strikes delivered with the feet
- A final simultaneous vertical strike with both fists via bladesLike the Republic Marauders, Sand’s armor is modified with twin arm-mounted vibro-blades, which extend from a neutral position and can lock into alignment with the left upper arm and right forearm. These blades increase reach and lethality, allowing each strike to function as both an impact and cutting attack.A Spitting Rawl marking is etched into his chest plate, signifying his mastery of the technique.
## Notable Engagements
#### Liberation of Carida (980 RSY)Served as sole acting Admiralty, commanding undermanned Republic forces through multiple attritional engagements. The campaign resulted in the loss of the Invictus but ended in Republic victory.
#### Failed Defense of Rhen VarDuring the Republic’s broader campaign operations, Sand positioned the Spear Fleet at Rhen Var to intercept potential Separatist counterattacks during the First Invasion of Christophsis and act as the first bulwark and early warning system. The system was assaulted by a hostile force known as the “Reaper Fleet,” led by [High Admiral Pax](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/high-admiral-pax "High Admiral Pax").An EMP detonation disabled the Republic’s ships, allowing the enemy to overwhelm the fleet. Sand’s flagship, the Fortitude, was boarded, and he was captured.
#### Rhen Var Prison Installation RetakeAfter he escaped from High Admiral Pax’s imprisonment, him and the Galactic Marines as well as RC elements of Ion and HOPE Squad, together pushed back inside the Installation, destroying any droids they encountered. Sand then focused his efforts to turn it into a Temporary Operations Base for the 21st, until he could come back with a full Republic Fleet to save the planet and Republic Forces on the surface. Until this rescue could be staged, he himself flew through the Reaper Fleet Blockade and was able to get his valuable intel on High Admiral Pax and his plans to the Chancellor.
# CC-7567 "Rex"
## Overview
CC-7567, or more commonly known as “Rex”, is a Clone Commander within the Grand Army of the Republic, serving as the Commander of the [501st Legion](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/501st-legion "501st Legion"). A veteran of many battles, Rex has turned into one of the most recognisable figures within the Clone Army. Not just as an inspiring figure for the Clones, but also to the wider Republic, as tales of his exploits alongside Jedi General Anakin Skywalker and Jedi Commander Ahsoka Tano are often widely published.
A first generation clone, an arc trooper, and trained from early on in command and leadership, Rex is one of the finest troopers the Grand Army has produced. His experience fighting under Anakin Skywalker, however, turned his leadership style to mirror his General’s. Often relying on instinct, unorthodox strategies, and sometimes just sheer confidence and luck, rather than the established protocols and tactics taught to him in his training.
One thing that his General did not need to teach him, though, was how to care for his men. Rex loved his brothers and would more than happily die for them. While records are spotty, there was even an instance in which Rex was willing to offer himself to Sith Acolyte Quinlan Vos in exchange for a private in his battalion.
Currently, CC-7567 leads his men in the frontlines of Christophsis.
## Military Career
CC-7567 was born on Kamino like all Clone Troopers in the Grand Army of the Republic. He was one of the first generations of Clones, CC-7567 quickly excelled his brothers. Showing natural leadership talent even from his [first trainings](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/republic-clone-academy "Republic Clone Academy"), he was quickly selected by the Kaminoans for advanced recon commando training, which included various lessons and classes on tactics, strategy, and combat. It was during this advanced training that he met and befriended CC-2224 "Cody" and gained his nickname of “Rex”.
When it was time for him to graduate, Rex was trained as an [Arc Trooper](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/advanced-recon-commandos "Advanced Recon Commandos") and Clone Officer of the highest calibre. His first post was as the Captain of the 501st Clone Battalion’s Torrent Company, an elite company that worked directly under famed Jedi Knight and General Anakin Skywalker.
For a Clone as talented as Rex, rising through the ranks was not difficult. The sad truth of the Clone Wars is that every Clone is replaceable, and as more and more of the 501st Legion were lost, Rex, due to his advanced training and experience, was always chosen to replace them.
Now serving as Clone Commander for the 501st Legion, Commander Rex works alongside General Skywalker and his Padawan Commander Tano to lead the 501st in some of the most brutal battles in the Clone Wars.

## Notable Engagements
#### Anti-Piracy Operations in Alderaan
One of the first battles that Rex commanded the 501st in was an anti piracy operation alongside the [212th](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/212th-attack-battalion "212th Attack Battalion"). The 501st and 212th were already used to working together, and the bonds between the commanders of both battalions went back to their time in training. While the 501st under Rex’s leadership held their objective, the IRC forces were too much in other locations, and a retreat was ordered.
A second operation was conducted by the 501st to clear out the [IRC](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/inner-rim-confederacy "Inner Rim Confederacy") threat on [Alderaan](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/alderaan "Alderaan") for good. The 501st split themselves in two groups, each went to secure a village close to the Republic Forward Operations Base at Alderaa City. From there, they were forced to regroup and attack the city head-on, due to the large mercenary presence there. After a brutal battle, the city was secured.
Rex, not one to give up the incentive, ordered all his forces to another village where IRC activity was spotted. They cleared the village with, and pushed on forward, clearing a village before reaching the final, largest village in the region. There, they were faced with an ambush; however, under the leadership of Rex, his trusted Clone Officers, and the Jedi, they were able to survive the ambush and push the majority of IRC forces out of Alderaan.
#### [Carida Rescue Mission](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-siege-of-carida "The Siege of Carida")
While rank comes with privileges, it also comes with obligations. The mission to retake Carida and save his brothers in the [91st](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/91st-mobile-reconnaissance-corps "91st Mobile Reconnaissance Corps"), [21st](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/21st-nova-corps "21st Nova Corps"), and [104th](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/104th-armored-battalion "104th Armored Battalion") was, at the time, the largest operation done by the Republic. The 501st, alongside the majority of the Republic’s Special Operations Brigade, and a truly large number of Jedi were sent to help the overwhelmed forces on Carida.
However, before they could land and defeat the [Droid Army](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/separatist-military "The Separatist Military") on the ground, the Separatist Navy first had to be defeated. While he was never trained as a Naval Officer, he was an ARC Trooper and a Clone Commander with battlefield experience, so he was selected to take charge of a Venator. Alongside an [RSF](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/republic-star-fleet "Republic Star Fleet") Lieutenant CT-3969 “Firecracker” and his close friend and officer CT-1408 “Sylas”, Rex was put in charge of a Venator, and the 501st were tasked with running it.
The battle was tough, and the arrival of mercenary pirates, the same mercenaries he lost men to in Alderaan, made it personal. After a difficult battle, Rex managed to succeed in keeping his Venator and his men alive, and the Republic Navy was able to secure Carida’s space so the ground mission could begin.
Once the Republic Navy gave the all clear, the 501st and Republic Special Operations Brigade elements deployed to the ground, alongside most of the experienced Jedi Knights and Masters. Rex directed his men to secure key locations, understanding that time was of the essence, and every second they wasted was more time the Separatists had to hunt down his brothers in the stranded battalions.
Rex was more than willing to fight on the frontlines, despite the threat of [Asajj Ventress](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/asajj-ventress "Asajj Ventress"), [Dooku’s](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/count-dooku "Count Dooku") favored apprentice and assassin, being on the hunt. However, fortune favoured Rex and his men that day, as it seems Ventress had made her leave from Carida before the Republic Fleet arrived.
The already weakened Droid Army, now with the loss of their Commander and their naval support were no match for the battle-hardened 501st. Under Rex’s leadership, they managed to secure key objectives in the planet and set the stage for the 91st and 104th, who were pushed back to the final Republic Stronghold on the planet, to finally escape.
[](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/uploads/images/gallery/2026-04/iUcimage.png)
#### [The Siege of Alderaan](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-siege-of-alderaan "The Siege of Alderaan")
After their success in liberating Carida, Rex received word that his brothers in the 212th were under Separatist attack on Alderaan. The 501st were selected by the Republic High Command to break the Separatist blockade over Alderaan and rescue the 212th. However, it can definitely be assumed that even if they were not selected for this mission, Rex would have taken his battalion to Alderaan anyway.
Rex travelled with Rear Admiral Jax and the familiar face of CT-3969 “Firecracker” to Alderaan. When they arrived, they faced the Separatist Fleet blocking the planet. For the first time in the Clone Wars, the Separatists used their Drop Pods. While initially taking the 501st by surprise, Rex rallied his men and quickly pushed out any droids on his Venator. Afterwards, he stationed his men in all the key areas that the Drop Pods could go through. This foresight ensured that any subsequent Drop Pod attacks were quickly dealt with.
While the Republic defeated the Separatist Blockade, not all the Providences in the fleet were destroyed, and some managed to retreat to Alderaan’s atmosphere. This forced Rex and his men to land in Kirrin Woods, rather than their intended location of Alderaa City.
Noticing that they were out in the open, Rex quickly ordered his men to secure a nearby camp, putting guards in all locations and having scouts watch the distance. This was a wise decision as it seemed the Separatist's had planned to defend Kirrin Woods, and Droids were seen approaching from all distances.
As Rex and his men bravely defended the camp, the Sky Shuddered as a Providence approached the woods. The Providence quickly rained fire on the 501st as it released orbital bombardment after orbital bombardment. Knowing that defending the camp would be a death sentence now, Rex trusted his instincts and ordered his men to scatter into the woods. After the Alderaan campaign, it was agreed by many members of the Republic High Command that if this decision was not made, the 501st would have been completely wiped out.
Rex, having faced the death of many of his brothers and the threat of a Providence hanging above them, managed to coordinate an escape through the woods and into a more secure location. As the Providence left the woods, Republic LAATs finally arrived and were able to take 501st back to the Venator to regroup and prepare.
Due to the loss of many lives in what was later named the Slaughter of Kirrin Woods, Rex had to pull the 501st out of active combat duties to reorganize and retrain new forces. However, Rex would be given a chance to avenge his fallen brothers. As the 212th, with the assistance of the Republic Navy were able to push the Republic forces out of Alderaa city and force them to Kirrin Woods, Rex volunteered alongside his battalion to be the final push in the Liberation of Alderaan.
After a battle in the atmosphere destroyed the remaining Providence and the Tactical Droid in charge of the Separatist Invasion of Alderaan, the 501st deployed to Kirrin Woods once more. Facing the original Droid forces in the region, the Droid forces that fled from Alderaa city, and the droids from the Drop Pod that the Providence launched before it was destroyed, the 501st were in for a long battle. Rex, however, would not let that change his style of leadership, and his resolve to defeat the Separatists on the same ground that many of his men were lost.
Deploying on the outskirts of the Woods, Rex and his brothers pushed into the woods. Their final destination, and where the Droid forces were the heaviest being the same camp they were tasked with originally securing. After a long and bloody battle, the 501st arrived in the camp and cleared out the Droid forces present. However, while not for the first time, Rex assured himself, but certainly the last time, the 501st was ambushed by Droid Forces. Heavy fire hit them from all sides, and even though they were able to defeat the remaining Forces, it came at a hard cost. Alongside many of his brothers, “Fives” and “Hardcase” both lay dead. These were two of Rex’s closest friends and most trusted leaders. Their deaths weighed heavily on Rex.
The saying is that Clones “live to fight another day”, and that is the truest for the 501st. After their operations on Alderaan, the Republic High Command ordered them to Corellia to push back the Separatist invasion there. While his men were sent to Corellia alongside a Republic Fleet, Rex went on a mission in which the details have been entirely removed from the records.
[](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/uploads/images/gallery/2026-04/aAqimage.png)
#### [The Invasion of Corellia](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-invasion-of-corellia "The Invasion of Corellia")
After the completion of this mission, Rex rejoined the 501st on Corellia. Rex has trained his men well, and when he arrived he came to a fully set up FOB with a shield generator, an impressive achievement considering the heavy orbital fire and drop pods the 501st would have faced when setting them up.
Now back in command of his men, Rex planned the next operation on Corellia. The Republic had to take a second FOB and place a shield generator to secure the region. However, this would be a dangerous operation due to the Providence in the atmosphere. Using his training and experience, he sent a portion of men under the command of Jedi Commander Ashoka Tano to a separate location to clear out droid forces, while he sent the majority of men in spaced out groups to secure the second FOB.
This tactic worked well, and the 501st were able to have a second, secured, FOB in the region. Their next objective was a CIS outpost. What should have been a difficult mission was done with much less casualties than expected, due to the intense training and experience of the now veteran 501st Legion. However, during this battle, Rex as always was leading from the Frontlines. This had caused a Spider Droid to have targeted him and get a shot off at him, while Rex owing to his training and now significant experience, was able to focus and patch himself up, a Drop Pod was launched at him. It would take more than that to kill Rex. Taking out almost all the B2s from the Drop Pod, Rex was almost out safe, when the Providence launched an orbital strike at him.
Rex woke up in the Republic FOB, being bandaged by medical droids and his close friend Sylas. Sylas had informed Rex that the 501st had managed to secure the Region and are ready to press onto the next.
While planning for their advance into the second region they had to secure in Corellia, Rex received a transmission from his superiors. The Christophsis campaign has proved too brutal, and too many battalions have had too many losses to continue. The Republic required the elite 501st on its most brutal front, and Rex answered the call.

# CC-8715 "Samson"
## Overview
**CC-8715 "Samson"** was born on the planet Kamino, along with his fellow Phase 1 cadets. He in personally the commander of [87th Sentinel Corps](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/87th-sentinel-corps). Though his battalion is younger compared to other battalions, they are no less effective. Commanding in a range of offensives and defensives in the republic, Samson leads with strict authority, and with deadly efficiency. Along with Jedi General Lyria and her Jedi Crusaders, Samson leads from the front with his troops in the 87th.
Currently, CC-8715 "Samson" leads his men on the streets and space of Christophsis.
## Military Career
Born on the oceans of Kamino like all of his brothers, Samson's ability to lead quickly set him apart from his other squad mates. During his first trainings at the [Republic Clone Academy](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/republic-clone-academy), he set himself apart from his squad and was personally selected by the Kaminoan scientists to undergo specific training to lead a battalion.
After his extended training and the wars beginning, CC-8715 was assigned to aid in the creation of the 87th along with his former cadet squad mate, ARC-9796 “Serce” in 981 RSY. Upon their completion, they landed on the streets of Christophsis for their first deployment.
## Notable Engagements
As one of the main battalions assigned with the takeover of Christophsis, they were the dedicated defense force of the major forward operation bases. During a multitude of these engagements, Samson and his battalion served on the frontlines as a bastion of defense.
[](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/uploads/images/gallery/2026-04/1pNimage.png)
Though they currently have only served on Christophsis, Samson and his men have already proven themselves as an unwavering spirit in the depths of combat.
*"We control the city, We control the fight!"*
# CC-8826 "Neyo"
## Overview
RCO-6961, nicknamed "Ace", is a second-generation Clone and one of the most highly effective operatives in the [Republic's](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/galactic-republic "Galactic Republic") Special Operations Brigade. Serving as the leader of HOPE Squad, a highly elite group of [Commandos](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/republic-commandos "Republic Commandos") responsible for high-risk counter-insurgent operations and the most sensitive rescue missions.
Even during his [training as a cadet](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/republic-clone-academy "Republic Clone Academy"), Ace has always been regarded as an excellent soldier. Composed, skilled, loyal, he was what the Kaminoans saw as an ideal soldier for the war's more dangerous battles.
His leadership style is often described as extremely decisive, as one would have to be when leading some of the highest-risk missions in the war. He is also noted of being extremely caring for his brothers, especially those on his squad: RCO-9370 "Vulkan", RCO-3577 "Ducks", RC-3518 "Boma", and their blackout pilot CO-4052 "Thinker".
## Military Career
A second generation clone, RCO-6961, was born on [Kamino](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/kamino "Kamino") like all other clones before him. When a clone has shown advanced combative ability, they are sent to [Advanced Commando Training](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/advanced-recon-commandos "Advanced Recon Commandos"). This was unusually not the case for RCO-6961. Despite this, Ace managed to end up scoring among the top of his entire generation of clones, and was in the eye for many battalions who wished to have him among their ranks.
During one of his trainings, RCO-6961 managed a very impressive act in which he single handedly, and in less than 4 seconds, was able to target and take out all the B1-Sniper Training Droids, something that left a very good impression on all of his trainers and brothers, and earned him the nickname "Ace".

## Notable Engagements
#### [Defense of Carida](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-siege-of-carida "The Siege of Carida")
After joining the [41st Elite Corps](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/41st-elite-corps "41st Elite Corps"), Ace was sent to [Carida](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/carida "Carida") to fight back against the [Separatist Invasion](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/separatist-military "Separatist Military"). The fighting was intense, waves of battle droids pushing, vulture droids flying overhead, and even [Sith Assassin Asajj Ventress](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/asajj-ventress "Asajj Ventress") causing terror on the frontlines. However, despite all this, Ace, like he did throughout all of his training on Kamino, excelled himself.
During one of the battles, Ace led a squad of 41st clones on a reconnaissance mission. However, they were ambushed by droids lying in wait. Through Ace's skill and leadership ability, he was able to push back the Droids and managed to get his squad back to safety to relay the information he found without any casualties.
After word of his mission had gotten back to Republic Command on Carida, the Republic Commandos who were operating there were suddenly interested in Ace and his performance. So much so that they decided to recruit him into their ranks.
Assigned to HOPE Squad and eventually becoming their leader, Ace would lead his squad in missions throughout the Carida campaign. Focusing on high risk missions and acting as an emergency rescue team for squads that were ambushed and unable to retreat on their own, Ace and the rest of HOPE Squad gained their reputation as one of the most elite units in the Grand Army of the Republic during this campaign.
HOPE Squad was present during the attack on the Republic's final forward operating base in Carida. Many clones believe that without the presence of Ace and his squad, the defense would have turned much differently. After the Separatist forces on Carida were defeated by Republic Forces, it was decided that Ace and his squad would be used in some of the most critical missions throughout the war due to their performance in this campaign.
#### Counter Spice Missions
While HOPE Squad is known for their high risk missions to rescue Republic Personnel trapped and surrounded by thousands of Droid forces, Ace and his squad were vital in the Republic's operations to counter the spice trade. Disguised as locals, they deployed to [Mos Eisley](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/tatooine "Tatooine") to locate and neutralise a prominent spice dealer.
After spending time in the canteen to gather information, they stealthily followed some smaller local dealers and infiltrated a [Crimson Serpent](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/crimson-serpents "Crimson Serpents") stronghold. After locating their target, Ace, with expert precision, took out multiple Crimson Serpent enforcers and neutralised the spice dealer.
They would go on to repeat this process, gaining a reputation among the Crimson Serpants and being highly successful in damaging the Spice Trade.
#### [Rescue of the Marshal Commander](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-invasion-of-rhen-varr "The Invasion of Rhen Varr")
One of their most famous missions, and one of the most daring ones any clone has tried in the Clone Wars, was HOPE Squad's rescue of [Marshal Commander Sand](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/cc-1870-sand "CC-1870 “Sand”"). After being stuck in [Rhen Var](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/rhen "Rhen") and faced with torture, intimidation, and abuse managed to hold strong and escape, finding himself in the company of the [21st Nova Corps](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/21st-nova-corps "21st Nova Corps").
After deciding it is essential that he escapes from Rhen Var, he contacted Republic Command and asked for the best way off world, and so in return, Republic Command sent HOPE Squad. After sneaking past the Separatist Blockade, they landed on Rhen Var and managed to rendezvous with the Marshal Commander.
From there, they worked out a plan to use a stolen Tactical Droid code and a stolen CIS shuttle to bypass the blockade. The mission was risky, and the plan was completely unorthodox. However, if anyone could pull it off, it would be Ace. Doing their best to hide their presence, they conducted operations on the ground to get all they need to escape with the Marshal Commander.
Ace, knowing the importance of this mission, ensured that everything he and his squad did on Rhen Var was done with absolute precision. Leaving nothing to chance, Ace and his squad were set for their escape.
Sitting in a stolen CIS Shuttle, with over forty Separatist Capital Ships against them, Ace's work was put to the test. If any of his missions had alerted the CIS of their plan, they would be destroyed there and then. Ace, his squad, and the Marshal Commander would all die for nothing. However, he had succeeded. The Blockade had no reason to suspect that nothing was wrong, and they were let through and free to travel back to Republic Space.
#### Operations on Ryloth and Christophsis
After saving the life of the Marshal Commander, Ace and his squad's reputation grew even more. Because of this, the Republic Military Command decided to send HOPE Squad to support operations in both the Ryloth and Chrostophsis campaigns. Two of the largest and most brutal campaigns the Republic was facing.
On Ryloth, they helped both the 212th Attack Battalion and the 91st Recon Mobile Reconnaissance Corps conduct operations throughout the system. Working alongside famed Jedi Generals such as Obi-Wan Kenobi and Mace Windu.
On Christophsis, like all the forces in that campaign, they were put through the grinder. Due to their elite nature, Ace and his squad usually found themselves in the more brutal areas of missions. Clearing out crashed Venators and tunnels that the CIS have occupied in force is something that has become second nature to Ace by experience alone.
Ace and his squad can currently be found in these two campaigns, waiting for the call to action when a vital mission comes up that only they are suited for.

# CO-0067 "Smokey"
Smokey was a part of the graduating batch “A-2”. He joined the 212th Attack Battalion, where he became a Sergeant who lead his men against the IRC on Alderann. After awhile, Smokey was transferred to the 104th Armoured Battalion to reinforce their numbers for the upcoming war. Smokey served under the elite Wolfpack Company, as the 2nd Lieutenant.
Smokey was an empathetic clone who tried his best to help the civilians on Carida. He has often negotiated with hostiles to try and work out a non-violent solution.
## Service Record
- The [Pirate attacks on Alderann](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-siege-of-alderaan), The Chancellor's Assassination, The CIS invasion of Carida, The Sith Investigation on Ashas, The Invasion of Christophsis, The capture of Tophen City, and the First invasion of Leesis City.
- Smokey was a Squad Leader/Platoon Leader for all of these missions. **He was the clone who landed a shot on the assassin who killed Chancellor Volken.** Throughout the Christophsis campaign, he ensured his Wolfpack sustained minimal casualties, until Leesis City where their LAAT was unfortunately shot down.
## Death
During the landing on Leesis City, LAAT's made an attempt to land in the city, with heavy resistance, the LAAT carrying Smokey and his [squad was wiped out (Video)](https://outplayed.tv/roblox/jJgEMa) Only his charred helmet was recovered.
# CO-3368 "Filtrum"
## **Overview**
Trooper "Filtrum" was amongst the first clones to emerge within the quickly emerging clone battalions. He was born with unusual silver hair for a clone; displaying one of the first instances of a minor mutation within the cloned specimens of the Kaminoans. Displaying exceptional tactical & strategic prowess that seemed extraordinary for a clone of his "basic" level; it was also noted that his ability to improvise, adapt and overcome obstacles even under pressure in command or as a leader was exceptional. That calm, collected demeanour had led his conscription in the 91st Recon Corps. Upon arrival within the republic installation on Carida, Filtrum had received his new stationed as Staff Sergeant of the BARC Company, as Platoon Leader of "Alpha" Platoon. Days passed and the alarms blared, the pressure the galaxy had felt finally combusted. Pirate ships in orbit, engagements with the friendly ships that resulted in those same vessels to come crashing down engulfed in flames. Blaster bolts, brothers being ambushed from the tree lines. Those nightmares would come to haunt him. Him and his men observed those horrors from above; acting as overwatch for fellow callsigns.
They finally came back to base, men were missing. Within a moment's notice, their commander declared yet another deployment. Morale was at an all time high- they were eager for battle. They marched out of the FOB; his men cheering **"For the Great Khan!"**, **We ride for him!**. Explosions erupted and blasters went off. The companies and their men scrambled in response, Nexu were forced to defend *the wall* with his company providing overwatch once more, there were too many of them; we couldn't see them through the bushes. They were too agile, it was as if we couldn't hit them at all. One scream over the radio after another, officers fell followed by their men. They stood their ground, they did it **"For the Republic"**.
Filtrum had vowed to prevent those massacres from striking his brothers ever again; initiative was taken and changes were made, improvements that had proven his worthiness for a title of an officer within a newly established Company, known as "Convor", he was entrusted with its establishment under Captain "Strafer". Duty called and demand was made, Convor was forged into a force to be reckoned with, the *elite*; a callsign that could stand its grown against the impossible. A demand that was met by a trial, for without too much room for preperation. The 91st was the first to deploy onto the surface of Christophsis. The first to set foot onto a planet that would later result in a bloodbath for his brothers, with a miscommunication between his unit's command and the navy, what followed was meant to be no more than a "simple recon mission". Turned into a battle for the battalion's survival, dropped within a central courtyard surrounded by armoured brigades and separatist droids in all directions, history was repeating itself. Yet another bloodbath, screams over the communications relay on his wrist and explosions in all directions. He had ordered his men to storm the nearest building in an attempt to prolong their survival. Resulted in the capture of Separatist officials Wat Tambor and Nute Gunray. A transmission came in, LAAT's had descended in an attempt to evacuate all callsigns. Moments from boarding the vessel, he was flung back by an AAT shell... rescued by one of his troops "Jailbird", they were successfully evacuated... only to live to fight another day. Bearing the color **green.**

# CO-5597 "Jesse"
## Overview
CO-5597 "Jesse" is another legendary figure within the famed [501st Legion](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/501st-legion "501st Legion"). Jesse is a soldier who wears his heart on his sleeve and his allegiance on his face. Distinguished by the massive [Galactic Republic](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/galactic-republic "Galactic Republic") cog tattooed over his brow, he is the embodiment of fierce loyalty and aggressive tactical skill. Long before he was a seasoned veteran, Jesse carved out a reputation at the [Cadet Academy,](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/republic-clone-academy "Republic Clone Academy") where he served as a hard-nosed but respected instructor. It was during these formative years that he forged a lifelong bond with [Rex](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/cc-7567-rex "CC-7567 "Rex""), a friendship built on shared grit and a mutual understanding of what it truly means to lead brothers into the fire.
A vetran of many battles, Jesse currently helps lead the 501st on their operations in Christophsis.
## Military Career
While he started as an instructor, when the Clone Wars ignited, Jesse was first to volunteer for a frontline role. Due to his natural command presence and experience instructing clones, he was placed in the 501st as a Captain in its elite Torrent Company.
Jesse distinguished himself during the battles in [Carida](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-siege-of-carida "The Siege of Carida"). From helping defend a Venator alongside the 501st in the intense space battle to leading his company to secure key objectives on the ground, he was vital in the liberation of the planet. From there, like the rest of the 501st, Jesse was sent to [Alderaan](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/alderaan "Alderaan") to rescue the 212th trapped on the planet and push back the [Separatist invasion](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-siege-of-alderaan "The Siege of Alderaan"). However, Jesse could never have predicted how brutal the Alderaan campaign would turn out. Facing orbital strikes after orbital strikes, watching his men face constant ambushes by Droid Forces, Jesse steeled himself and promised both vengeance on the Droids and to do all he could to protect his brothers and his Republic.
After their costly success on Alderaan, Jesse was moved to [Corellia](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/corellia "Corellia") where he would help lead the [campaign](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-invasion-of-corellia "The Invasion of Corellia") during Rex's absence on a classified mission. His ability to plan ahead, honed by the campaigns he had already faced, allowed him to plan successfully to counter the droid attacks and set up bases to protect his men from the orbital strikes that devasted them on Alderaan. After successfully clearing a region on Alderaan, Jesse, alongside the rest of the 501st, was told that they would be heading to Christophsis, the Republic's most intense campaign due to the losses taken by the forces already there.

## Cost of War
While the loss of every brother hits Jesse hard, the deaths of some brothers affected him more than anything else. Gone are his most cherished brothers, but not the lessons they taught him. Every chance he gets, he teaches the younger generation of Clones about the legacies and accomplishments of the fallen.
[Hardcase](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/wo-9415-hardcase "WO-9415 "Hardcase"") during the Alderaan Campaign.
Even after the bombardment, Jesse kept Hardcase’s "never-say-die" attitude. He encouraged his heavy gunners to be bold and creative, often telling stories of the Warrant Officer who could take down a Spider Droid with a laugh. Jesse became the Captain who valued courage over caution.
Fives, during the Alderaan Campaign.
Fives taught Jesse that a Captain is only as good as his men’s trust. After the ambush, Jesse vowed never to be a "desk commander." He led from the front, just like Fives did, ensuring that the First Lieutenant’s tactical creativity lived on in every Torrent Company flanking maneuver.
[Tup](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/cs-5385-tup "CS-5385 "Tup"") during the Christophsis Campaign.
Tup was the one who checked on the shinies. After Tup fell, Jesse took that role on himself. He became the Captain who knew every trooper's name and backstory. He realized that leadership is about people, not just missions.
Dogma, during the Christophsis Campaign.
Dogma showed Jesse the importance of loyalty to the Republic. Even though Dogma was young and strict, his dedication was unmatched. Jesse honored him by maintaining a high standard of excellence in Torrent, making sure they were the sharpest unit in the 501st.

# CO-9016 "Swordzo"
## Overview
CO-9016, known officially as "Swordzo" is a Colonel in the Grand Army of the Republic and serves as the Battalion Executive Officer of the 41st Elite Corps.
A member of the original A-1 batch of clone troopers, he is among the last surviving clones of that generation. Known for his leadership and battlefield adaptability, Swordzo rose through the ranks from Private to Colonel through distinguished service on multiple campaigns.
He is currently stationed on Prime, reinforcing Republic defenses along key hyperspace routes leading to Coruscant.
## Military Career
Swordzo began his military career in the 41st Elite Corps after graduating from the A-1 batch of clones. Starting as a Private, he steadily rose through the ranks due to consistent battlefield performance and leadership ability.
His first major promotion came during the Republic Invasion of Carida, where he was elevated to Staff Sergeant and assigned as Platoon Leader of 1st Platoon, Sarlacc Company. Following his actions on Carida, he was then promoted to Second Lieutenant and became Executive Officer of Sarlacc Company.
After the Carida campaign, Swordzo's record earned him a promotion to Major within the 41st's High Command (HICOM). He later then played a key leadership role in the Christophsis campaign before being promoted to Colonel and Battalion Executive Officer of the 41st Elite Corps.
## Notable Engagements
**Republic Invasion of Carida**
Swordzo's leadership first stood out during the campaign on Carida. Tasked with leading 1st Platoon, he successfully defended a forward operating base against repeated pirate assaults. After the Sarlacc Company Commander was wounded, Swordzo assumed command and led the company to multiple victories with minimal casualties, contributing to the elimination of the IRC threat.
[](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/uploads/images/gallery/2026-05/swordzossgt.png)
**Christophsis Campaign (Tophen City & Leesis City)**
Initially deployed toward Corellia, the 41st was redirected to Christophsis to support failing Republic forces as the 91st had sustained heavy losses and needed to pull out. As a Major, Swordzo played a central role in coordinate strategy alongside HICOM and the 104th Battalion.
He helped lead the assault on Tophen City and later spearheaded the invasion of Leesis City, establishing the first forward operating base within the industrial zone. He also oversaw operations throughout the city's capture and personally supervised the mapping of its underground tunnel systems.
His actions during the campaign directly contributed to Republic victory and earned him a promotion to Colonel.
## Leadership
Swordzo is known for a leadership style defined by strategic precision and operational excellence. Widely regarded within the 41st as a highly tactical and composed commander, he consistently demonstrates an ability to assess battlefield conditions and make decisive actions in even the most critical moments.
He places strong emphasis on maximizing both his own capabilities and those of his troopers, often leveraging positioning, coordination, and timing to achieve victory with minimal losses.

# CS-1337 "Scorch" (WIP)
## Overview
CS-1337, designated **“Scorch,”** was a clone who was labeled “Defective” early in his life despite having no genetic differences from any other clone. Because of this, he was held to lower standards during his time in Clone Academy, but used that doubt as motivation to prove himself.
Scorch quickly advanced through training, rising to the top of his class by Phase III and forming close bonds with several fellow cadets. After being selected to lead his own group, he invited his friends to join him, and together they became the fastest graduating class to complete the Citadel, earning recognition as **Top Cadets**.
Following this achievement, Scorch and his friends were offered a chance to try out for the [**Republic Commandos**](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/republic-commandos). They passed Phase I as part of the top candidates, but technical errors during Phase II caused the group to be forcefully failed. Refusing to let this setback define him, Scorch joined the [**212th Attack Battalion**](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/212th-attack-battalion), where he quickly found a place among his brothers.
Within the 212th, Scorch rose through the ranks and eventually led his own squad through several missions. As the war continued and casualties mounted, the deaths of his brothers began to weigh heavily on him. Unable to remain in the rear while others fought and died on the frontlines, Scorch left **Recon** and moved closer to the main fighting, determined to prove his leadership and stand beside his brothers.
## Military Career
A clone who was referred to as “Defective” early on, although no genetic changes from any other. He was held to very low standards from the start of Clone Academy, but that just meant he could prove everyone wrong. He quickly flew through his training and became top of his class all the way to his phase three, making friends along the way. He was selected to lead a group, which he invited his friends to join. They were the fastest graduating class to beat the Citadel, becoming Top Cadets. Because of this, he was offered a spot to try out for the Republic Commandos, which he instantly accepted. He and his friends from the academy all attended the tryout and passed Phase 1, being the top 8 of about 25 people. However, during Phase 2, technical errors occurred, leading to everyone being forcefully failed, but without letting this hold him, “Scorch” joined the 212th, planning to show his brothers his leadership capabilities.
After joining the 212th Attack Battalion, he instantly felt welcomed and at home by his brothers, knowing this was where he belonged as he befriended and grew close to several other members, quickly ranking up. Not long after, he was a leader of his own squad, taking them from mission to mission, following all orders given to him. Then the deaths began with several 212th members, his friends falling in battles as the deaths weighed on him. He knew he couldn't sit around, so he left his previous company, “Recon” and went to the frontlines, knowing he could not stay in the back lines of combat as his brothers died.

## Notable Engagements
#### Carida War
During a catastrophic defensive failure now referred to as the Wall Massacre, Serce was the sole surviving member of his unit after a coordinated enemy breakthrough. This event marked his transition from a standard trooper to an ARC trooper.
During the Carida War on Pirates, Serce was a Captain of a BARC company, He led high-speed reconnaissance and strike operations across the Carida front. Under his command, the company maintained the lowest casualty rate of any deployed unit during the war. His use of mobile warfare, staggered engagement zones, and preemptive extraction routes minimized losses even in high-risk operations; also, the only significant casualties sustained under his command came during direct encounters with Asajj Ventress, engagements in which Serce adapted quickly, ordering disengagements rather than sacrificing troops in unwinnable duels.

#### Christophsis Campaign
Serving as a Captain, Serce was responsible for mission planning across multiple operations, working closely with his Lieutenant to coordinate troop movements, supply lines, and orbital support. When his Commander was incapacitated mid-campaign, Serce assumed full battalion command without formal promotion. He successfully coordinated close air support with Republic Navy forces, executing synchronized assaults that broke entrenched CIS positions. Led all of 87th as an acting commander during Samson's absence multiple times. Worked closely and coordinated well with navy, 501st, and 41st during every mission. Commanded all of 87th for the Capital City District of Christophsis.

#### Ryloth
As Colonel, Serce assumed full operational control of his battalion while his Commander was listed as Leave of Absence. Without direct oversight, he planned and executed every mission across the campaign. In one of the most notable engagements, Serce led a 30-man force deep into CIS-controlled territory to capture a fortified forward outpost. Through careful planning, staggered assaults, and controlled aggression, the objective was secured with only three casualties, an outcome considered exceptional given the circumstances. His leadership during Ryloth solidified his reputation as a commander capable of sustaining high operational success with minimal losses, even in isolation.

# CS-5385 "Tup"
## Early Life
CS-5385 "Tup" was among the first phase 1 cadets, of which he performed to his highest ability, and earned himself a spot among the 501st legion.
## Journey Through the Ranks
Upon his enlistment in the 501st, Tup climbed up to Staff Sergeant trhough his hardships on Alderaan. He has forged his way through loyalty to the 501st and dedication to his craft.
## Military Career
Tup's renowned loyalty is what pushed him beyond limits, most notably on the planets Alderaan, Christophsis, and Corellia. His actions lead him to his NCO spot among other notable members. On the space front, Tup was apart of multiple space battles in which he was a force against invading droids. His journey took him through the recapture of Alderaan from IRC forces, through the space of Carida, and down on the ground on Christophsis, where he met his end.
## Personal Life.
Out of combat, Tup was known for his compassion for his fellow clones, along with his strong sense of brotherhood among his squad. He strived to reinforce squad coherency and teamwork above all else.
## Death on Christophsis
During a forward advance in the city of Lesis, Tup was leading Republic forces through the destroyed streets when a battalion of CIS forces caught them off-guard, and Tup, along with most of his men, made the ultimate sacrifice. Through grueling guerilla warfare, the Republic still has yet to claim Christophsis, as the CIS forces remain as the dominate force.
# Praxis Vordana
## OverviewPraxis Vordana was the former Head Academist of the Republic Clone Academy and a standing member of Military High Command. A figure of immense intellect and discipline, Vordana is credited with revolutionizing the training protocols of the Republic’s forces.
## Alora VordanaPraxis' wife, Alora, born in 920 RSY on Coruscant, served in the Republic Intelligence Agency after graduating from the Coruscant Military College, where she met Praxis. The two married after graduation and built both a family and military careers, with Alora earning strong respect within intelligence for her skill and dedication. She was described as having long black hair, bright blue eyes, and faint freckles. She gave birth to six children, showing particular closeness with the twins in their early years. Alora tragically died at 41 from complications during the birth of her youngest, Elara, leaving behind six children, including a newborn daughter and a grieving family.
[](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/uploads/images/gallery/2026-04/eJiimage.png)
## Early History & EducationBorn into the heart of the Republic on Coruscant in 908 RSY, Vordana’s early childhood is a matter of speculation, with few official records existing prior to his enrollment in the Coruscant Military College. It was here that he first distinguished himself, not through physical prowess alone, but through aptitude for strategy. Praxis graduated with top honors in Advanced Military Education Theory and Strategy.
## Late LifeFor decades prior to his current assignment, Vordana served as the Republic’s premier military education advisor. He did not seek fame on the frontlines; instead, he forged the officers who would go on to be commissioned for the Republic.
### The Volken Mandate (973 RSY)In 973 RSY, the trajectory of Vordana's career shifted permanently. Recognizing that the Republic required a new breed of soldier, Supreme Chancellor Volken personally summoned Vordana to a closed-door meeting on Coruscant. Volken entrusted him with a dual mandate: to assume command of the Republic Clone Academy, where he would standardize and refine the training of clone troopers, and to push the boundaries of cloning itself and advancing beyond mere replication to develop innovations that enhance military efficiency, adaptability, and strategic capability. Vordana accepted, viewing the Academy not as a school, but as a laboratory. To him, the cadets are both students and vital experiments in the pursuit of tactical perfection.At 75 years old, Praxis Vordana remains the central pillar of the Republic's military education. He is often seen on Kamino, to orchestrate the future of the Clones for the Republic. He stands today as the living embodiment of the Republic’s military ideal: disciplined, intellectual, and relentless.Praxis Vordana is a man of absolute method. He is known to be stern, exacting, and emotionally detached, yet he commands deep respect for his fairness. He values intellect and initiative above blind obedience.
## CreationsIn 980 RSY, Praxis Vordana commissioned a Consular-Class Light Cruiser for use by his Academy. Now designated the Consular-Class “Praxeum,” the vessel serves primarily as a transportation vessel and is operated by a crew composed of crew and members of Vordana’s staff. The Consular-Class Light Cruiser now operates as Vordana's personal vessel after his retirement from the Republic Clone Academy.In 983 RSY, Praxis Vordana finalized a acquisition to begin construction of Vordana Enterprises Mega Luxury Casino in the heart of Coruscant's Commercial District.In 983 RSY, Praxis Vordana finalized a deal with the Republic Intelligence Bureau who bought the Consular-Class "Praxeum" for 300,000 Credits.
## Vordana EnterprisesVordana Enterprises is a Republic-aligned mega-corporation founded by the Praxis Vordana. Originally founded as the primary holding company for his growing network of businesses, investments, and family assets. What began as a means to organize and manage his commercial ventures eventually developed into a respected corporate organization spanning hospitality, entertainment, finance, transportation, real estate, and private security.Unlike many galactic corporations driven solely by profit, Vordana Enterprises was created to ensure the long-term prosperity, stability, and influence of the Vordana family. Every division exists to strengthen the family's economic foundation while providing high-quality services to customers throughout Republic.While publicly viewed as a successful family-owned corporation, the company also serves as the administrative backbone of the Vordana family's private affairs, investments, and future generations.
Vordana Security Group (VSG) is the corporate security division of Vordana Enterprises, responsible for protecting the company's personnel, properties, operations, and the Vordana family itself. Through professional security services, executive protection, investigations, and risk management, VSG ensures the safety and continuity of Vordana business interests across the galaxy while upholding the standards of discipline, discretion, and excellence established by its founder.

# RCO-6961 "Ace"
## Overview
RCO-6961, nicknamed "Ace", is a second-generation Clone and one of the most highly effective operatives in the [Republic's](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/galactic-republic "Galactic Republic") Special Operations Brigade. Serving as the leader of HOPE Squad, a highly elite group of [Commandos](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/republic-commandos "Republic Commandos") responsible for high-risk counter-insurgent operations and the most sensitive rescue missions.
Even during his [training as a cadet](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/republic-clone-academy "Republic Clone Academy"), Ace has always been regarded as an excellent soldier. Composed, skilled, loyal, he was what the Kaminoans saw as an ideal soldier for the war's more dangerous battles.
His leadership style is often described as extremely decisive, as one would have to be when leading some of the highest-risk missions in the war. He is also noted of being extremely caring for his brothers, especially those on his squad: RCO-9370 "Vulkan", RCO-3577 "Ducks", RC-3518 "Boma", and their blackout pilot CO-4052 "Thinker".
## Military Career
A second generation clone, RCO-6961, was born on [Kamino](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/kamino "Kamino") like all other clones before him. When a clone has shown advanced combative ability, they are sent to [Advanced Commando Training](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/advanced-recon-commandos "Advanced Recon Commandos"). This was unusually not the case for RCO-6961. Despite this, Ace managed to end up scoring among the top of his entire generation of clones, and was in the eye for many battalions who wished to have him among their ranks.
During one of his trainings, RCO-6961 managed a very impressive act in which he single handedly, and in less than 4 seconds, was able to target and take out all the B1-Sniper Training Droids, something that left a very good impression on all of his trainers and brothers, and earned him the nickname "Ace".
[](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/uploads/images/gallery/2026-04/2MUimage.png)
## Notable Engagements
#### [Defense of Carida](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-siege-of-carida "The Siege of Carida")
After joining the [41st Elite Corps](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/41st-elite-corps "41st Elite Corps"), Ace was sent to [Carida](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/carida "Carida") to fight back against the [Separatist Invasion](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/separatist-military "Separatist Military"). The fighting was intense, waves of battle droids pushing, vulture droids flying overhead, and even [Sith Assassin Asajj Ventress](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/asajj-ventress "Asajj Ventress") causing terror on the frontlines. However, despite all this, Ace, like he did throughout all of his training on Kamino, excelled himself.
During one of the battles, Ace led a squad of 41st clones on a reconnaissance mission. However, they were ambushed by droids lying in wait. Through Ace's skill and leadership ability, he was able to push back the Droids and managed to get his squad back to safety to relay the information he found without any casualties.
After word of his mission had gotten back to Republic Command on Carida, the Republic Commandos who were operating there were suddenly interested in Ace and his performance. So much so that they decided to recruit him into their ranks.
Assigned to HOPE Squad and eventually becoming their leader, Ace would lead his squad in missions throughout the Carida campaign. Focusing on high risk missions and acting as an emergency rescue team for squads that were ambushed and unable to retreat on their own, Ace and the rest of HOPE Squad gained their reputation as one of the most elite units in the Grand Army of the Republic during this campaign.
HOPE Squad was present during the attack on the Republic's final forward operating base in Carida. Many clones believe that without the presence of Ace and his squad, the defense would have turned much differently. After the Separatist forces on Carida were defeated by Republic Forces, it was decided that Ace and his squad would be used in some of the most critical missions throughout the war due to their performance in this campaign.
#### Counter Spice Missions
While HOPE Squad is known for their high risk missions to rescue Republic Personnel trapped and surrounded by thousands of Droid forces, Ace and his squad were vital in the Republic's operations to counter the spice trade. Disguised as locals, they deployed to [Mos Eisley](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/tatooine "Tatooine") to locate and neutralise a prominent spice dealer.
After spending time in the canteen to gather information, they stealthily followed some smaller local dealers and infiltrated a [Crimson Serpent](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/crimson-serpents "Crimson Serpents") stronghold. After locating their target, Ace, with expert precision, took out multiple Crimson Serpent enforcers and neutralised the spice dealer.
They would go on to repeat this process, gaining a reputation among the Crimson Serpants and being highly successful in damaging the Spice Trade.
#### [Rescue of the Marshal Commander](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-invasion-of-rhen-varr "The Invasion of Rhen Varr")
One of their most famous missions, and one of the most daring ones any clone has tried in the Clone Wars, was HOPE Squad's rescue of [Marshal Commander Sand](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/cc-1870-sand "CC-1870 “Sand”"). After being stuck in [Rhen Var](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/rhen "Rhen") and faced with torture, intimidation, and abuse managed to hold strong and escape, finding himself in the company of the [21st Nova Corps](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/21st-nova-corps "21st Nova Corps").
After deciding it is essential that he escapes from Rhen Var, he contacted Republic Command and asked for the best way off world, and so in return, Republic Command sent HOPE Squad. After sneaking past the Separatist Blockade, they landed on Rhen Var and managed to rendezvous with the Marshal Commander.
From there, they worked out a plan to use a stolen Tactical Droid code and a stolen CIS shuttle to bypass the blockade. The mission was risky, and the plan was completely unorthodox. However, if anyone could pull it off, it would be Ace. Doing their best to hide their presence, they conducted operations on the ground to get all they need to escape with the Marshal Commander.
Ace, knowing the importance of this mission, ensured that everything he and his squad did on Rhen Var was done with absolute precision. Leaving nothing to chance, Ace and his squad were set for their escape.
Sitting in a stolen CIS Shuttle, with over forty Separatist Capital Ships against them, Ace's work was put to the test. If any of his missions had alerted the CIS of their plan, they would be destroyed there and then. Ace, his squad, and the Marshal Commander would all die for nothing. However, he had succeeded. The Blockade had no reason to suspect that nothing was wrong, and they were let through and free to travel back to Republic Space.
#### Operations on Ryloth and Christophsis
After saving the life of the Marshal Commander, Ace and his squad's reputation grew even more. Because of this, the Republic Military Command decided to send HOPE Squad to support operations in both the Ryloth and Chrostophsis campaigns. Two of the largest and most brutal campaigns the Republic was facing.
On Ryloth, they helped both the 212th Attack Battalion and the 91st Recon Mobile Reconnaissance Corps conduct operations throughout the system. Working alongside famed Jedi Generals such as Obi-Wan Kenobi and Mace Windu.
On Christophsis, like all the forces in that campaign, they were put through the grinder. Due to their elite nature, Ace and his squad usually found themselves in the more brutal areas of missions. Clearing out crashed Venators and tunnels that the CIS have occupied in force is something that has become second nature to Ace by experience alone.
Ace and his squad can currently be found in these two campaigns, waiting for the call to action when a vital mission comes up that only they are suited for.

# WO-9415 "Hardcase"
## Early Life
Hardcase was a hot headed clone from the planet Kamino, born with a slight defect in his growth serum, it caused his hyper active personality. Upon his graduation, he was assigned to the 501st legion to support the Republic.
## Journey Through the Ranks
Hardcase climbed the ladder through his hard work and determination. Fellow clone troopers often describe him as the one leading the charge with his famous Z-6 blaster. His military prowess eventually led to his spot as a Staff Sergeant.
## Military Career
Hardcase was most famously known for his sense of action combined with heavy fire from his Z-6, as he pushed forward when necessary and held the line when it truly mattered. His journey spanned from cities in Alderaan, to Venators high above ground.
## **Personal Life**
While in and out of combat, Hardcase would be known for his love of the fight, and his constant want for battle made him frequently forge his own path, and sometimes disobey orders. Though reprimanded for such actions multiple times, he never strived from a bout and was always eager for a fight, and best enjoyed the thrill of battle and even destroying his enemies. Off the field he was known for his chipper attitude, and his constant jokes to lighten the mood. He was usually known for his affinity to try and get a reaction out of other clones. Overall, Hardcase's constant love of the fight proved to be his greatest weakness.
## Death on Alderaan
During [The Siege of Alderaan](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-siege-of-alderaan) the 501st battalion experience the brunt of the newly developed orbital cannons. During the intense siege, hundreds of clones faced death from these new technologies, and during a defensive in the Kirin woods, Hardcase and a multitude of squads engaging droids to forge a path to the trapped 212th were slaughtered by a orbital barrage. They made the ultimate sacrifice, and in the end, the siege on Alderaan resulted in a Republic victory, through rouge forces of pirates remain as thorn to the Republic.

# CO - 0849 "Met"
## **Overview**
Met was born on Kamino as a clone. He was especially close with his brothers, particularly his squad, with whom he took part in the Citadel training together. After graduation, each clone went their separate ways. Met decided to join the RSF Navy, starting his career just as the war was about to begin. The first battle he took part in was when the CIS attempted to use their fleet to break into Alderaan, an assault which was successfully repelled. While participating in many battles, his rank rose faster than that of a typical trooper.
A major turning point came during the surprise attack on Rhen Var, when he was in charge of the *Hardcase*. Although the attack was unexpected, he did his best to keep his men calm and maintain the integrity of the ship until he received orders from Sand to evacuate. After surviving Admiral Pax’s pursuit on the ground and returning to the fleet, Met was devastated by the losses they had suffered. Following the retreat from Rhen Var, he became more disciplined than the average trooper, though he remained kind at heart. He pushed his troops to maintain peak condition and ensured that mistakes were corrected. Those who made errors were punished with helljacks to ensure they would not repeat them.
##### **Disaster at Christophsis**
After the second city was cleared, Met was ordered to assist in the assault on the final city alongside the Venator he was stationed on in order to liberate Christophsis. However, things quickly went wrong. The assault was to be led by Commodore Imperator, along with representatives from each division. When the battle began, there were few SFC personnel available for the invasion, forcing the battalions to remain aboard the Venators and defend them until the anti-air defenses were cleared.
A wave of drop pods struck the ship, and the battalions defended it with everything they had. Despite their efforts, one drop pod breached the bridge, where Commodore Imperator was stationed. Before he could react, Super B2s emerged and killed him instantly. When Met was informed of his death, he was placed in command of the entire operation. However, he was unprepared and untrained for such responsibility, and it took him time to regain his composure. Once he did, he ordered a full retreat from the city.
As the Venators attempted to withdraw, the one Met was stationed on suffered heavy damage and could not escape. He ordered a full evacuation to save as many clone lives as possible. Met remained behind on the ship, and when it exploded and crash-landed, he miraculously survived.
Once the ground assault began around the downed Venator, the Republic Army fought with everything they had. The surviving RSF personnel, including Met, were unable to contribute effectively, as they lacked armor and were not trained for ground combat. After the battle was won, a LAAT arrived to extract any surviving Navy personnel, including Met. He later returned to his Venator, shaken by the fact that he had survived against overwhelming odds.
##### **Venator Saved at Christophsis**
During the final siege of the city, Lieutenant Met was stationed aboard a Venator alongside Admiral Whiz, serving as his executive officer. Met was placed in charge of logistics while the rest of the crew conducted orbital bombardment. While assigned to a secondary bridge, he developed a strong bond with his guards, which included several members of the 501st, including Kix.
On the second day of the siege, most of his security detail was deployed to the surface to fight the droids, though a few remained behind with him, observing the battle and talking. During this time, a Hyena bomber targeted a defenseless Venator, scoring multiple hits and leaving it critically damaged. The admiral ordered an evacuation, but Met refused and began coordinating repairs instead. Another RSF member, his guards, and a member of the 104th stayed behind to assist him. Together, they managed to stabilize the ship before it was destroyed.
Once the Venator was stable, the rest of the crew and additional guards returned to continue supporting the ground forces. For his actions during the battle, Met was awarded the Republic Cross, the highest Republic-wide honor available to him. After the ceremony concluded, he immediately returned to repairing the ship, continuing his work until the end of the day.

# CO-2468 "Baker"
Work in Progress
# CO-3969 "Firecracker"
## Overview
CO-3936 "Firecracker" was a legendary figure in the [Republic Navy](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/chapter/grand-republic-navy "Grand Republic Navy"). A member of one of the earliest generations of Clones, Firecracker served in the [Republic Star Fleet](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/republic-star-fleet "Republic Star Fleet") during some of its earliest operations and went on to be a key part of many campaigns.
Rather than being assigned a command role after graduation, Firecracker was forced to work up through the ranks of the Republic Navy. Navigation, engineering, weapons, name any of the essential tasks a Venator requires to function, and Firecracker had done it. Noted by many who worked with him and by those who ranked him much higher for his competence, bravery, and loyalty, he was quickly promoted through the ranks.
Firecracker's command style was forged through hard work serving the Navy, not through [academy training](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/republic-clone-academy "Republic Clone Academy"). Knowing, actually knowing, not just reading it from a manual, the intricate details of how a Venator functions, how much the weapon systems can manage, how quickly the [starfighter detachments](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/starfighter-corps "Starfighter Corps") can launch, how much stress the engine can handle, gave Firecracker an edge that most Republic Naval Commanders didn't have. His unorthodox style of command, even during some of his earliest command roles, was one of the reasons why he grew close with [Commander Rex](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/cc-7567-rex "CC-7567 "Rex"") during their service together.
CO-3936 died an honourable death over Chaleydonia City, Christophsis. After the bridge was attacked by a CIS Drop Pod, Firecracker ordered his men to leave the bridge and get to safety. However, hearing that one of his men was stuck on the bridge, he returned to attempt to rescue his brother, and in this heroic endeavour, he was shot dead by the droids.
## Military Career
Born on Kamino like all other clones and to one of the first generations, CO-3936 was a model clone. While he was not selected for [Advanced Commando Training](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/advanced-recon-commandos "Advanced Recon Commandos") or Command Training, he was noted as what an ideal clone should be. Loyal to the Republic, follows orders without question, and is competent in what he does. During one of his trainings, he managed to mess with the circuits of an RPS and managed to increase the size of the blast, unfortunately it went off without warning. After this incident, he would be bestowed the nickname "Firecracker" by all of his brothers.
While his experiment did not go as planned, his knack for engineering was noticed by his instructors, and his performance in more academic sides was all excellent, so he was assigned to the Republic Star Fleet. As a quick study and a hard worker, Firecracker learned the basics of all the different jobs that were involved in running a venator, and then learnt how to do all the jobs well.

## Notable Engagements
#### [First Space Battle of Alderaan](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-siege-of-alderaan "The Siege of Alderaan")
Stationed within the fleet responsible for the defence of [Alderaan](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/alderaan "Alderaan"), as a Petty Officer, Firecracker did not expect to be involved in one of the first invasion attempts of the war; however, when the [CIS ](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/confederacy-of-independent-systems "Confederacy of Independent Systems")fleet arrived, he showed no fear and did the Republic proud.
Tasked with not only communicating information between the Venator bridges, but also made gunnery leader for the defence, a lot was hanging on Firecrackers performance, and he did not disappoint. The Republic Fleet was able to defend against the invasion, and Firecracker was promoted for his efforts.
#### [Carida Rescue Mission](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-siege-of-carida "The Siege of Carida")
Promoted to Midshipman after his work in Alderaan, Firecracker was told that him and his crew will be moving to [Carida](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/carida "Carida") to defeat the [Separatist Fleet](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/separatist-military "Separatist Military") and rescue the Republic Forces stuck on the surface. This was one of the largest fleet battles in the war so far, and the intensity was made worse by the use of CIS Droid Pods. One of these pods hit the Venator that Firecracker was on.
Despite not being equipped to handle anti-boarding operations, Firecracker charged without fear and ended up defending against the boarding party by himself. He was awarded the Medal of Valor for this action. During this mission, he became close with the clones of the [501st Legion](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/501st-legion "501st Legion").
#### [The Siege of Alderaan](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-siege-of-alderaan "The Siege of Alderaan")
While still as a Midshipman, Firecracker was given the unique honour of being able to command a Venator. Once again assigned alongside the 501st, Firecracker was responsible for ensuring that his Venator was being run correctly during the fleet battle. The mission was a great success and Firecracker was able to prove that despite his relatively low rank within the Navy, he could be assigned a Venator and manage it well.
#### [The Invasion of Corellia](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-invasion-of-corellia "The Invasion of Corellia")
Promoted to Sub-Lieutenant and tasked with command of a Venator once again. Using his experience from his previous fleet battles, Firecracker and the rest of the Republic Fleet were able to make short work of the Separatist Blockade on [Corellia](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/corellia "Corellia"). After the blockade was handled, Firecracker was moved to the surface to handle ATC and communication responsibilities with the Fleet and the ground forces.
#### [The Loss of Rhen Var](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-invasion-of-rhen-varr "The Invasion of Rhen Varr")
Promoted to Lieutenant and assigned a Venator to command in [Rhen Var](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/rhen "Rhen"), Firecracker was looking forward to some downtime to hone his command skills. However, the sudden arrival of [High Admiral Pax](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/high-admiral-pax "High Admiral Pax") and his fleet ruined those plans entirely. Firecracker and his crew were more than willing to fight Pax and his fleet; however, the activation of the High Admiral's EMP device resulted in his Venator being destroyed in the battle. Stranded on Rhen Var, Firecracker had to fight tooth and nail alongside the 21st Legion to return to orbit and escape.
#### First Assault on Christophsis
Promoted again to Lieutenant Commander after escaping Rhen Var and saving as many naval personnel as he could, Firecracker would be involved in the opening act of the invasion of [Christophsis](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/christophsis "Christophsis"). Now, not only did he have a Venator under his command, but he would also be responsible for working with the Admirals on strategic and tactical matters for the invasion.
When most commanders get to the position Firecracker has now achieved, they tend to stay back and prefer to lead from holograms and manage the battle from afar. Not Firecracker. Despite his now senior rank, he always made sure to lead from the frontlines. If a Droid Pod hits, he will be there making sure that every last one of his men escapes before he makes a run for it.
#### Assault on Ryloth
With Christophsis clear, Firecracker was ordered to [Ryloth](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/ryloth "Ryloth"). Once again in charge of a Venator while also being responsible for tactical decisions, he led his forces to victory. This time, making friends and getting to know the clones of the [91st Mobile Reconnaissance Corps](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/91st-mobile-reconnaissance-corps "91st Mobile Reconnaissance Corps"), a battalion he had once helped save on Carida. The already weakened CIS Fleet on Ryloth was no match for the Republic's Fleet and the leadership of experienced commanders like Firecracker.
#### Defense on Christophsis
Due to the importance of the Christophsis campaign, Firecracker was transferred back over to Christophsis and put in charge of a Venator. The Republic was adamant not to let the planet go after all the sacrifices they had made, and part of their plan was to make sure all their Venators had the most experienced commanders they could find. Sadly, when the Droids returned for a second assault, fate no longer favoured the Republic.
Many Venators were destroyed, and it seemed that the Separatists would have full naval superiority over Christophsis. Firecracker, as the commander of the last remaining Venator, had a choice. He could pull his Venator out of the system, leaving the clones on the ground with no naval support, or he could make a much more risky move. He made the choice to stay and move his ship down to the atmosphere, knowing that leaving the ground forces with no naval support would be sentencing them all to death.
#### Last Stand
On a technicality, Firecracker had become one of the most senior naval officers for the Christophsis campaign, and so naval command bestowed upon him the rank of Captain to fit this new assignment. With only a handful of naval personnel to support the operations of 3 battalions, the SOB elements, and manage communication and security in the two Republic occupied cities, Firecracker had a difficult job. When supporting the initial assault on Chaleydonia City, Firecracker's bridge was boarded by a Drop Pod.
He quickly called his men to evacuate the Bridge and was one of the last to leave, wishing to cover his brothers before he escaped from the bridge himself. However, when he got to relative safety, he had found out that he had left a brother behind in the bridge. Without a second thought, he quickly returned to the bridge in order to provide cover fire for the last remaining trooper to escape. Unfortunately, he was spotted by the B2 Super Battle Droids that had boarded and was shot in this heroic endeavor.
Firecracker's body was later retrieved and given a proper burial. A sad, but fitting end for what is, without a doubt, one of the greatest clones to have served the Republic Navy.

# Alza Velescule
## Overview
Alza Velescule was born on the frigid Outer Rim world of Maldo Kreis, where survival demanded resilience and ingenuity. Raised in a small family dwelling built into the mouth of a cave, Alza and their family lived a harsh hunter’s life in the frozen canyons of the planet. The unforgiving environment shaped Alza from a young age, teaching them patience, caution, and the importance of careful observation. During childhood, Alza often ventured into the icy cave systems alongside their older brother, learning the skills necessary to survive in the hostile wilderness. Tragedy struck early in their life when their brother was lost during one such hunt, an event that left Alza with a lingering sense of responsibility and a deep fear of weakness. Not long after, a wandering Jedi crash-landed on Maldo Kreis and took shelter with Alza’s family while repairing his ship. During his stay, the Jedi sensed the Force strongly within the young child. Recognizing their potential, he eventually departed the planet with Alza, bringing them to begin training within the Jedi Order.
## Story
Upon entering the Temple and beginning their journey as a young initiate, Alza quickly demonstrated a relentless curiosity about both the Force and the nature of combat. Rather than focusing solely on doctrine, they constantly questioned how the Force could be applied to real-world problems and battlefield situations. This mindset brought them under the tutelage of Master Ravyn Voss, whose practical combat experience heavily influenced.
Alza’s early development. Under Voss’s guidance, Alza trained extensively in lightsaber combat and learned to view martial discipline as a means of protecting others rather than seeking personal glory. Over time, Alza also received guidance from Master Mace Windu, whose teachings challenged them to confront the deeper emotional and philosophical responsibilities that come with wielding power. The combined influence of these mentors helped shape Alza into a Jedi who valued balance between knowledge and action, strength and restraint, and the ideals of the Order and the realities of a galaxy increasingly consumed by war.
Alza went on to become a Peacekeeper as a Jedi Intern with master Voss. Eventually becoming a knight with Obi-wan's approval. After, Alza joined the watchmen shaping their viewpoint of the world along with skillset.
Jedi Master Alza Velescule now serves as the Battle master of the Jedi Order, a position earned through extensive combat training, battlefield experience, and dedication to strengthening the martial discipline of the Jedi. Originally rising through the ranks as a determined and inquisitive Jedi, Alza quickly developed a reputation for combining traditional Jedi teachings with a pragmatic understanding of the realities of war. Their philosophy emphasizes balance between offense and defense, strength and restraint, and knowledge and discipline.
Throughout the Wars, Alza has faced numerous challenges that shaped their outlook on the Force and their role within the Order. The loss of mentors and allies during the war, including the deaths of respected Jedi such as Master Zey and other comrades, deeply influenced their determination to grow stronger and better prepare the Order for the threats it faces. Despite these hardships, Alza remains committed to guiding younger Jedi and expanding the Order’s combat knowledge. As Battle master, they actively train Padawans and Knights, studying multiple lightsaber forms and exploring new combat philosophies in order to ensure that the Jedi remain adaptable against enemies such as the Sith.

During the mission, Alza infiltrated local criminal circles, gathered intelligence from contacts in a cantina, and observed smugglers meeting with a mysterious holographic figure known as “the Boss.” The operation was complicated by a sandstorm and a rampaging rancor, but Alza maintained cover when confronted by armed smugglers, preserving the opportunity for future intelligence gathering.
## Contributions
Alza has had many contributions towards the Jedi Order. After all of her hard work and dedication, Alza was granted the rank of Jedi Master and Battlemaster of the Jedi Order. She was responsible for overseeing lightsaber trainings and the combat doctrine. Alza has trained many Younglings personally to assist their growth within the ways of the Jedi Order. Alza has participated in diplomatic and intelligence efforts across the Outer Rim to strengthen alliances with local leaders.

Death
## Death
Battlemaster Velescule died an underwhelming death after choking on a Galactic Burger. How such a fate could fall upon such a renowned Jedi is yet to be discovered.
# Arligan Zey
## Early LifeArligan Zey, a Force-sensitive human born on Mentellos. He was taken into the Order at a very young age but got accustomed to his new life fairly quickly. Remembering almost nothing of where he came from, Arligan never dwelled on the past, choosing instead to focus on the future and the present moment. His easygoing attitude is what identified him throughout the Order, earning trust not through strength alone, but through his genuinity.
## Creation of the Jedi Assault Team and BulwarkFast forward the time, Zey is now a renowned Master, holding the title, *Keeper of The Balance*. Upon the request of the Jedi High Council, Master Zey was tasked with creating a task force composed of 14 elite Jedi, created to assist the Republic and deal with direct foes of the Jedi Order. After the 14 members were selected, the Jedi Assault Team were deployed to their first mission, a recon mission on Alderaan, in which they were ambushed by IRC Pirates, resulting in three members getting captured. Arligan was notified of this and the day after, led a team with the assistance of the remaining Assault Team members and retrieved the captured members. Master Zey along with Master Ima-Gundi came up with a creation of a weapon that could further the protection Jedi gave in terms of their weapons. Master Gundi and Master Zey formulated the idea, and with the help of Jedi General Lyria, they created the weapon of protection. A shield powered by a Kyber Crystal.
## Darth VynnMaster Zey along with Master Sai Ten, Ahsoka Tano, and Ravyn Voss witnessed one of the many upbringings of the Sith Lord. They ventured into the Jedi’s esteemed second temple on Dantooine, discovering the saber they thought to be the saber of Darth Vynn. As they attempted to research it, the saber constantly pushed them away. Master Zey attempted to hold the saber, but to no avail. As time went by, Mastery Zey abstained from this mystery due to other duties that required his attention.
A few weeks later, upon the request of Master Kenobi, over 20 Jedi Knights and Masters were requested to come to the Planet Ashas. This would be the first battle that ensued between the Jedi and the Sith Lord. During the battle, Master Zey found himself not only fighting the body of Vynn, but also projections or “visions” of other Jedi, like Master Kenobi, Master Zey even caught himself fighting a vision of himself at one point. His next encounter with the Dark Lord would be through Padawans Lego Nubby, Vanto Silar, and Knight Volhaar on Numidian Prime. As the two padawans explained their situation further, Master Zey would start to realize the danger the Order was in. In light of this, against the Council's orders, Master Zey would attempt to help them flee the planet to continue their journey, as they were one of the only hopes the Order had. Many in the Order had grown to dislike and chastised the three, but Master Zey looked beyond their “wrongdoings”.
## War throughout the GalaxyIn the early stages, when the Republic's main enemy was the IRC, Master Zey was requested by Master Mundi to come with the 21st to seek out a high-ranking IRC officer in which they did find. Master Kenobi, unfortunately, killed the officer, but the mission was deemed a success.
Fast forward, Chancellor Volken sent out a message requesting Jedi Attache, Master Zey had good relations with General Skywalker, so he asked if he could accompany the 501st during their time on Alderaan. It wasn’t a very eventful time, just a few skirmishes with the IRC here and there. As time went by, event after event, led to the start of what was referred to as the Clone Wars. Master Zey had long gone from the 501st and was now stationed with the 41st. He and Master Tapal got along very well, in turn Master Zey also got along very well with the troopers within the 41st. One of the more important missions Zey went on with them was the protection of the Queen of Naboo. She was delivering a speech and intuitively, Master Zey jumped in front of her, blocking the blaster bullet that would be used to end the Queen's life.
Master Zey and members of the 41st escorted her quickly to safety. Unfortunately, Master Zey would not be able to stay by her side long enough, as he had to move out of the city to escort a technician to fix a terminal, which was under heavy droid fire. The technician successfully completed his job, and the day was considered a success, the 41st in Master Zey's eyes had some of the most helpful groups of clones.
## Death at ChristophsisMaster Zey was still with the 41st, but they had now been relocated to Christophis, one of the biggest, if not the biggest war front during the time. The first fight Master Zey took part in was the retake of a droid factory, where he along with members of JAT, 104th, 41st, a few SOB units, where they successfully took over the base, and retrieved information from a T-Series droid. Master Zey participated in many skirmishes across Christophis, but one of these skirmishes led to him being in space above Christophis.
Master Zey was just supposed to be looking over at the space fight, but Drop Pods boarded the Venator he was on, and he, along with Master Windu, Master Obi-Wan, Master Saesee Tin, and Master Sai Ten, dealt with the threats along with those on board. Whilst he was fighting, he got news, the Sith Apprentice [Ventress](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/asajj-ventress "Asajj Ventress") was on board and he quickly dispatched to the other Venator, with the help of his fellow Jedi, they pushed her to leave the Venator. The fleeing sith did some damage to a RSF crewman, in which Master Zey patched up quickly.
The space fight was considered a success and Master Zey returned to the ground of Christophis, but little did he know, this would only be the beginning. As the forces moved deeper into Christophis Master Zey found himself meeting with an old friend, a Jedi he worked with during his time in the 501st. Well, who he thought was his friend. Master Zey sensed he recognized the man but couldn’t truly tell. He came into contact with the Sith in Leesis City and he fought against along with the help of another Jedi, successfully pushing him back. This led the clones and the Jedi to go deeper, in which would be a grave mistake.
The point they were attacking was held strong by the CIS, Tanks, Spider Droids, too many units to count. Whilst Mastery Zey was taking out a tank, he was shot, exploded by a Spider Droid, whilst he was on top of a tank attempting to take it down. Master Mace Windu had attempted to save him, but *Master Zey was quickly put out of his misery.*

# General London
## Overview
General London, one of the Republic’s and the Jedi Order’s most well-known figures. A Jedi Guardian, Jedi General for the 5th Fleet Security Clone Battalion, and the Order’s only known person with a purified white crystal, and one of the rare few Jedi proficient in the double-bladed saber, all this at a remarkably young age as well.
London’s achievements are numerous, and while none can deny them, there are some in the more traditionalist arm of the Order who aren’t in support of the unorthodox path London took and continues to follow. As a Jedi Guardian, London is always willing to put others before himself, fighting ancient Sith entities, Sith Assassins, and risking his life to save others.
General London is known to keep a public journal of his past adventures. These are often studied by younglings in the Jedi Order for an insight into the life of such an accomplished Jedi.
## Early Life
Born in the slums of the Lower City of Taris, London, and his brother Edned D spent their first five years going from meal to meal, avoiding gangsters and doing their best to try and pluck their way out of the steel cage they were born in. When he was five, the Jedi Order came to Taris for London and his brother. While many would have assumed the boys were a charity case for the Order, that couldn't be further from the truth. London and his brother had been determied to make something more of their lives, and the arrival of the Jedi simply put them on the path they were looking for all this time.
Having spent his life moving fast, never throwing away any opportunities, and with the confidence and determination needed to stay alive in a place like the Lower City of Taris, he pushed himself further than any other youngling. This mindset is how London passed his Knight Trials, without a master, while most were still Padawans. While many in the Order were not the most accepting of London's unorthadox path and his quick progress, they were unable to deny his talent and find no reason to stop him.
When the Clone Wars broke out, London was assigned as the Jedi General of the 5th Fleet Security, alongside his Padawan Haven Z.
## Story
#### Gaining the White Kyber Crystal - I
One day, after completing a long and difficult mission, London's brother Edned returned to the temple with three lightsabers he had taken from fallen Sith warriors. Edned had a plan to purify the corrupted kyber crystals from the Sith Sabers and decided to give one of the sabers to his brother, as he knew that London had always wanted a second crystal to create a double-bladed lightsaber.
London and Edned were joined by General Lyria and Jedi Master Plo Koon, who had a crystal he wished to purify as well. The four of them decided they would undergo the purification ritual together. They had moved to a secluded region of Tython and started the ritual. Sadly, the ritual proved too intense, as Master Plo Koon had lost consiounous soon after the ritual started, with his crystal being shattered, and Edned's crystal had fully shattered. However, London's crystal, while not fully purified, had entered a state of complete void of Light and Dark. His path to a purified crystal was not closed off completely, but it will take much more time for this challenge to be completed.
#### Battle of Carida
While occupied with completing the purification ritual, the war had finally called London. Deployed to Carida alongside his battalion, London was tasked with commanding the defences of the Republic Fleet over Cairda. While he was conducting inspections on his men and the Venator he was stationed on, the Tribunal, a CIS fleet, had entered the system.
While the rest of the Fleet had their own CIS Capital ships harassing them, the Tribunal faced two Providences. As waves and waves of Drop Pods hit the Tribunal, London led his brave men of the 5th Fleet Security from the front lines. After hours of battles in the narrow corridors of the Venator, London and his 5th managed to defeat some of the boarding parties.
However, while London was pushing past the Droid forces towards the engine room, he felt a disturbance in the Force. Wary, he headed towards the engine room when he was suddenly met with [Asajj Ventress](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/asajj-ventress). London fought Ventress and managed to give the Republic enough time for Jedi reinforcements to arrive. Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, Master Quinlan Vos, and famed Anakin Skywalker were all among them. Together, they were able to force Ventress to retreat out of the Venator.
However, the Venator had taken too much damage, and a third Providence had entered the system and was heading straight at the Tribunal. The order was given to evacuate, and London did his best to take as many of his men to the escape pods as he could; however, he could not save them all...
#### Gaining the White Kyber Crystal - II
Back on Tython, enough time had passed for the Kyber Crystal to start talking to London. On one of his vists to the mountain where he left the crystal to process after the ritual, it had finally communicated to him. What faced him was a trial of memories. He saw visions of the Sith who had used the corrupted crystal and how he fought against his brother and his friends in the Order. After stabling his emotions and composing himself, he pressed his resolve and claimed the crystal. It had accepted him. London became the first wielder of a White Kyber Crystal in the Jedi Order.
#### Crafting a Double-Bladed lightsaber
After completing the ritual to obtain a purified White Kyber Crystal. Now, ready to craft his double-bladed lightsaber, he started the process and was met with another trial. He was put in a situation in the familiar walls of a Venator. With him, intelligence that would change the tide of the war; however, in order to be able to transfer the intelligence, he would have to leave behind his men to face their death against the Droid boarding parties.
Understanding that the war effort was bigger than him, than his connections and memories with his men, and knowing that his men would be happy to sacrifice their lives to help the Republic win the war, he chose to make sure the intelligence reaches the Republic. He had passed his trial. Obtaining a saber, with one blade blue and another white, he had joined the ranks of the very few Jedi who had ever achived a double bladed lightsaber.
#### The Siege of the Senate
Soon after crafting his double-bladed lightsaber, London was one of the Jedi called to respond to the crisis unfolding on Coruscant. The Sith Lord Vynn had launched an invasion in the heart of the Republic, the Senate building itself. She had erected a massive Sith Spire, corrupting all those around it, and summoning two to three Sith ghosts to help protect her and her creation.
In the following battle, London faced Vynn directly. Using his new saber, he fought ferociously, fighting to defend his fellow Jedi and the heart of the Republic itself. After the battle had subsided, the ghosts banished, and Vynn defeated, London was left with her Sith Robes. He has yet had time to investigate the secrets behind them.
Jedi General Horatio Hej is a well-known and battle-hardened figure within the [Galactic Republic](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/galactic-republic "Galactic Republic"). A veteran leader of many battles and as Deputy Chief Peacekeeper, Horatio himself was an embodiment of the new times the [Jedi](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/jedi-order "Jedi Order") find themselves in, as both leaders of war and keepers of peace. After his sudden promotion to Jedi General, Horatio was forced to resign from the Peacekeepers.
Much of Horatio's early life is a mystery, with only a few painful memories remaining. He believes that he must have been born in [Coruscant's](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/coruscant "Coruscant") underworld and knows that at some point, he got into a fight in which he lost his left eye. His first real memories are with the Jedi Order, where he was raised at the temple on [Dantooine](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/dantooine "Dantooine"), the planet he considers his real home. His childhood was a time of strife for the Order due to the revived threat of Darth Vynn, and he was at the temple on the day it was attacked, but was powerless to defend it as a mere Youngling.
After being evacuated to [Tython](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/tython "Tython"), he was finally able to complete his Crystal Gathering on [Ilum](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/ilum "Ilum"), connecting with a green crystal. During the Padawan ceremony, Horatio chose not to speak to any of the Masters but instead spoke with Master Ray Ruun about the Jedi Service Corps and resolved to join it, becoming one of the few to do so by choice. During his JSC training, he joined the Jedi section dispatched to [Carida Space](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-siege-of-carida "The Siege of Carida") to man the Venator Concord, his first taste of battle. He then joined the Jedi Assault Team as an intern and was placed under Traigh Batmin, from whom he learned skills that he would later use on the frontlines. Horatio was attached to the [41st](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/41st-elite-corps "41st Elite Corps") very briefly under the watch of [Arligan Zey](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/arligan-zey "Arligan Zey"), where he would take part in the defence of the Queen of [Naboo](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/naboo "Naboo") during an [IRC](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/inner-rim-confederacy "Inner Rim Confederacy") raid. After returning from Naboo, he was then assigned to take part in the "Wall of Light" ritual in a team with Knight Corijin and Padawan Nuru'kai'vas, though it did not have the intended effect.
With his internship complete and his bravery proven, Horatio takes his Knight Trial and passes the first time, being dubbed a Knight of the Jedi Order. His first mission was to Dantooine with the Jedi Peacekeepers, where he leads the PKs in speaking with local villagers, beginning the slow process of healing the scars left from the attack on the Temple. Before he can complete that mission, he was assigned to the [91st Battalion](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/91st-mobile-reconnaissance-corps "91st Mobile Reconnaissance Corps"), where he participated in the opening space battle and the first assault. Due to pilot error, he and his squad, Nexu, become pinned down just outside the [CIS](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/confederacy-of-independent-systems "Confederacy of Independent Systems") headquarters. The decimation of his squad and the number of deaths he witnessed that day traumatise him, he was lucky to be carrying wounded before the arrival of [Count Dooku](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/count-dooku "Count Dooku"), sparing him the fate of his one-time classmate Varyn Kestis. When Horatio next returns to the ground with his battalion, he does so as part of the efforts to save the captured Jedi, among them his friend Sylen, but he was knocked unconscious during the assault and does not recover in time to participate in any further battles of the campaign.
He was appointed Deputy Peacekeeper, acting effectively as Chief Peacekeeper, upon his return to Tython, which resulted in him going on numerous missions and cooperating closely with the Red Crest. Horatio once again joins the 91st for the [Ryloth](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/ryloth "Ryloth") campaign. During a respite from this, he begins the Crusader trials under Master Lyria, and during the second trial comes face to face with Mrs Risi alongside Master Paul on Dantooine.
## Military Career
#### The Christophsis Campaign
Horatio was present for the first space battle above [Christophsis](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/christophsis "Christophsis"), which resulted in a swift victory for the Republic. He joined Nexu Company for the landing operations, but due to a miscommunication they were deployed in the middle of a road outside the [CIS headquarters](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/separatist-military "Separatist Military"). Fighting for their lives, Horatio eventually left the battlefield carrying the clone trooper Diren on his back in critical condition. While treating Diren and meeting the captured Gunray and Tambor, his company was slaughtered by Dooku. Diren would later serve as his Senior Warrant Officer in the 442nd. After learning of the capture of his friend Sylen and other JAT members, Horatio resolved to help recover them. Unfortunately, he was badly injured and knocked unconscious for the duration of the battle. Devastated by the conflict, the 91st was withdrawn from Christophsis shortly afterwards.
#### Jedi Peacekeeper and Rest Crest
Hoping to rebuild trust between the Jedi and the locals of his adopted homeworld, Horatio led a peacekeeping mission to nearby villages, though it ended in failure. He later led the Peacekeepers to war-ravaged [Carida](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/planets/page/carida "Carida"), where he witnessed the scars left by the war. A subsequent peacekeeping mission to Alderaan proved far more successful, with the locals agreeing to work with the Order in the future. Horatio later returned to Carida with the Red Crest and the Peacekeepers, but darkness prevented them from achieving much. Following this, he departed from the Peacekeepers to focus on his GAR duties.
#### The Ryloth Campaign
Horatio rejoined the 91st as they began their campaign on Ryloth. During this campaign he fought far more aggressively than he had on Christophsis, leading the left flank through the canyon. He later mourned the losses incurred at a funeral held shortly afterwards, and for his efforts he was awarded a medal by Colonel [Serce](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/arc-9796-serce "ARC-9796 "Serce""). Horatio also took part in two defences of the barricades and provided overwatch during the CIS–Republic prisoner exchange with his company, Convor.
#### Jedi Adventures
Wishing to walk the path of a crusader, Horatio returned to Ilum to undertake another crystal gathering. He later travelled with other trial crusaders to Dantooine to hear Jedi Master Lyria speak about what it meant to be a crusader and what would be required of them. As part of the trial, he handed his lightsaber to Lyria and, alongside Master Paul Lunedancer, set out on his journey. The two travelled to the old Dantooine temple, only to discover it had been taken over by an unknown group. They were escorted to meet the group’s leader, Mrs Risi, who was hostile towards both the Jedi and the Order in general, describing them as little better than the Sith. She demanded that the Jedi leave Dantooine for good and end the oppression of her people. Despite Horatio and Paul attempting to negotiate with her, all efforts failed. They discovered that Risi possessed a white lightsaber and was Force-sensitive before being thrown out of her chambers. Even so, they continued to help her people wherever possible.
After passing the trial, Horatio and Paul parted ways. Horatio’s final trial required him to act as a shield and save those in danger, which he completed while serving with the 91st on Ryloth. Later, Horatio, Zon Ruun, and Lucard Echo returned to Tython in hopes of attuning their kyber crystals to their shields. Together they shared a vision of the Force in which they were asked to explain themselves. Zon and Lucard were allowed to pass freely, but Horatio was stopped by two guardians who sensed conflict within him and feared he would betray the Jedi and his oath. With a lightsaber held to his neck, Horatio calmly responded and was ultimately declared a true guardian, allowing him to leave with his newly attuned crystal. With this final trial complete, Horatio finally became a true crusader.
Meanwhile, events on Dantooine had escalated, leading to a mass deployment of Jedi guardians. Despite the goodwill built by Horatio and Paul, and the early success achieved by Master Jorus, the two sides quickly found themselves at odds and fighting broke out. After the conflict ended and most of the Jedi had departed, Horatio accompanied Master Jorus and the Consulars to observe how they managed to calm the planet. However, needing to return to his duties elsewhere, Horatio departed before witnessing the conclusion of these most interesting chain of events.
#### [Liberation of Corellia](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-invasion-of-corellia "The Invasion of Corellia")
Horatio was later deployed to the Vreni Islands as the newly assigned Jedi Captain of Horn Company. He attempted to convince the locals of the Republic’s good intentions and organise supplies, but the locals remained wary. A gunfight broke out despite Horatio’s efforts to defuse the situation, and afterwards he was confronted by a Trandoshan who declared that he would either hunt Horatio or harm the locals. Wanting to protect them, Horatio agreed to the terms and the hunt began, only for the Trandoshan to fall into a sinkhole. Horatio later deployed to Golden Beaches, where the Trandoshan reappeared during the second battle but quickly fell into quicksand. While extracting the anti-air device from Golden Beaches, the Trandoshan appeared yet again, though Horatio had already boarded the Venator before he could strike. At a funeral for those killed on Golden Beaches, the Trandoshan returned once more, having latched onto an ARC-170, but Taris Kenetos used the Force to push him into the void.
During a short skirmish in space, the Trandoshan was spotted again after sneaking aboard the wrong Venator and attempting to take a hostage. Forced to flee using an escape pod, he survived even after SFC destroyed the pod, floating instead toward Horatio’s ship until Seban Kenetos used the Force to push him back into the void. Around this time, Horatio witnessed clone trooper Goliath II’s attempts to court a Corellian local, though he sensed something familiar as a shooting star passed overhead. During the major space battle above Corellia, the Trandoshan appeared again and was referred to by the CIS as “the hunter.” He floated towards Horatio’s ship, the VSD Prophet, but Horatio once again cast him back into the void. Although the Prophet was destroyed during the battle, Horatio escaped alongside his squad and reached the flagship safely.
Horatio later took part in the raid on the Vreni Islands, demonstrating his prowess with the Force by holding down a shuttle full of criminals. Following the death of General [Seban Kenetos](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/seban-kenetos "Seban Kenetos") in an off-duty incident related to his drinking problem, Horatio assumed the role of Jedi General. He then led the [442nd’s](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/battalions/page/442nd-siege-battalion "442nd Siege Battalion") invasion of the Eastern Crashsite, surviving a fall into the main hangar of the downed Venator despite the huge number of droids inside. He later led a separate assault on nearby emplacements and accompanied SOB on a secret raid on the CIS headquarters for the Eastern Crashsite, where he learned of [Director Veyss’](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/director-veyss "Director Veyss") midi-chlorian extraction experiments. Horatio eventually led the 442nd in the defence of the downed Venator, nicknamed “Sina”, before commanding the counterattack against the CIS and discovering a secret base, now known as “Rose”, which they occupied. After the battle, he discovered that his Senior Warrant Officer, Diren, had been killed defending the base, bringing an end to the friendship that had begun on Christophsis.
# Ima-Gun-Di
## Early Life
Ima Gun Di was born in Hutt controlled space, where his earliest years were shaped by slavery. As a child he was moved through a trafficking chain tied to Hutt interests along the edge of Republic territory. During a Jedi recovery effort, the transport he was on was intercepted and those being moved through it were freed. The Jedi involved recognized his Force sensitivity and brought him into the Order.
He was taken to the Temple young enough to be given a new life, but not so young that he forgot the old one. That stayed with him. More than anything else, it shaped the way he came to understand what a Jedi was meant to be. To Ima, power means very little unless it is being used to stand between the helpless and the people who would prey on them.
## Personality and Leadership
Ima Gun Di leads through steadiness. He does not ask others to face dangers he would avoid himself, and if a line has to be held, he is usually standing in it. He does not romanticize war, and he does not speak lightly about sacrifice. The people who serve beside him tend to trust him quickly because he stays composed when conditions begin to break others down.
He values friendship deeply, even if he does not speak of it often. His bond with Ki Adi Mundi was built through campaign service and mutual trust, and his friendship with Commander Keller grew the same way, through hardship, losses, and shared responsibility. Ima does not see those bonds as weakness. In his mind, they are part of what keeps duty from turning cold and empty.
His view of the Jedi is simple. The innocent, the weak, and those who cannot defend themselves must come first. A Jedi is meant to place themselves in danger when others would suffer in their place. The power granted by the Force does not come lightly, and because of that it can never be treated lightly either.
## The Clone Wars
During the Clone Wars, Master Ima Gun Di went through many campaigns. One of his campaigns were the Yerbana campaign. During the campaign on Yerbana, Ima fought beside Ki Adi Mundi and the 21st, helping secure the planet and force enemy withdrawal. The battle tied his name closely to the battalion and established him as a dependable battlefield commander. It was one of the first campaigns that made clear he was someone the men of the 21st could trust when pressure started building.
The next campaign that defined him more than any other was the Siege of Carida. When Republic forces on Carida were blockaded and worn down under sustained pressure, Ima remained with the fighting through its worst stages. The campaign was marked by attrition, bombardment, failed pushes, and constant losses, but he continued to hold alongside the men still left standing. It was not a clean campaign, and it was not a glorious one. It was a grinding fight that demanded endurance more than heroics.
During the fighting on Carida, he encountered [Ventress](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/asajj-ventress "Asajj Ventress") directly. After seeing clones cut down beside him, he told her, “You do not deserve to feel the Force.” Even with the blockade tightening and the battlefield grinding men down from one day to the next, he stayed in the fight long enough to help force a CIS retreat and secure the planet.
Ima-Gun-Di is currently deployed on Rhen Var, where he and the 21st remain blockaded under continued CIS pressure. The campaign has only reinforced the role he has come to fill in the war effort. He is not reckless and he is not theatrical. He is the one who holds when others cannot.
## Combat
Carida exposed the limits of what his former blade could keep asking of him. The fighting had become too prolonged, too compressed, and too brutal for a standard battlefield saber style to keep meeting the role he had taken on. Ima had become a line holder, someone expected to cover more space, absorb more pressure, and keep others alive under constant strain. In response, he designed and forged a Greatsaber suited to that purpose. It was built for reach, leverage, and endurance. Its creation was not vanity. It was an adaptation, shaped by the kind of warfare he had already survived and the role he knew he would continue to carry.
Ima’s combat style is centered on control, endurance, and defensive pressure. He is at his best when the battle becomes prolonged and unforgiving. He does not waste movement, does not overcommit, and does not chase empty openings. His focus is always the survival of the line, the protection of those around him, and creating the space others need to live. That approach has defined both his reputation and the way others understand him. He is a Guardian in the clearest sense of the word. His first instinct is not display, but protection.
## Jedi High Council
Ima’s steadiness in war and his reliability in command eventually led to his place on the Jedi High Council. From there, he did not become distant from the battlefield. Instead, he carried what he had learned from it into the Order itself.
He serves as the Jedi Order’s Interservice Liaison, maintaining trust and coordination between the Order, the Grand Army of the Republic, and the Navy. He is not there to command the military. He is there to make sure the Jedi can work with it cleanly and that the bond between them does not weaken under strain.
**Reserve Jedi General**
Even with his Council duties, Ima remains active as Reserve Jedi General for the 21st. His connection to the battalion is personal. He has fought beside its men, carried responsibility for their losses, and built real trust with the officers who lead them, especially Commander Keller. To the 21st, Ima is not just a Council member or a Master of the Order. He is one of their own.
# Jorus C’baoth
## Overview
Jorus C’baoth is a Jedi Master from the Planet Bortras and specifically, the capital city of Reithcas. C’baoth always had a strong proficiencyof the force, eventually garnering the attention of the Jedi Order. C’baoth was claimed from his birth parents and brought to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. C’baoth joined the Jedi Service Corp as an Initiate rather than be trained by a Master and quickly became one of its top scholars. At 17, C’baoth began Jedi studies at Mirnic University. After graduating, he attended the Kamparas Jedi Training Center, where he became knowledgeable in philosophy, history, political science, and anthropology. He later continued his training as a private student.
C’baoth eventually joined the ranks of the Jedi Knights and followed down the path of the Jedi Consular. Choosing the art of diplomacy rather than combat, becoming a championing supporter of the Galactic Republic. C’baoth served the Republic as a negotiator and diplomat, particularly in cases of Speciesism, being a member of various Demilitarization Observation Groups and assisting in lobbying for interspecies rights. C’baoth created a strong connection with a variety of Republic Senators throughout his career as a Knight, even being assigned as an Advisor to a Senator on Jedi-related matters. Within this office, C’baoth engaged in discussions with the Extragalactic Society, an association of scientists and officials dedicated to exploring the existence of life beyond the Galaxy. During this period, C’baoth 2 began experiencing visions indicating a growing influence of the dark side. Guided by these premonitions, he confronted a group of Dark Jedi operating in the Elrood sector. Supported by a select team of Jedi Knights, C’baoth succeeded in defeating the Dark Force-Users. Following this accomplishment, he conferred upon himself the title of Jedi Master, which was subsequently endorsed by the Jedi High Council.
C’baoth early on in his Mastery was a harsh critic of the Republic’s failure to respond to the growing militarization of the Free Trade Zones, particularly the creation of Droid Fleets and Armies by the Trade Federation. In his time as a Master, C’baoth was an active member of the Jedi Diplomatic Corp, being involved on a variety of Advisory Committees including the Senate Interspecies Advisroy Committee. Being involved in some manner in negotiations in Aldeeran during their dynastic crisis. C’baoth rarely accepted Padawans and exercised meticulous care in selecting candidates. While participating in negotiations on Mandalore, C’baoth identified Force sensitivity in a young Mandalorian noblewoman named Seline Viszla, a member of Mandalore’s ruling clan. Recognizing her potential, Jorus placed Seline under the care of the Jedi Order, believing her abilities would not be fully realized within Mandalorian society. He also considered that this decision might spare her from a life of restriction imposed by her aunt, Kyu Viszla.
## Early Life
C’baoth frequently clashed with the Jedi High Council, particularly in the leading days to the Clone Wars. Since the onset of the Separatist crisis, Jorus frequently petitioned both the Jedi and the Senate to take a more proactive stance to the growing crisis. Believing that complacency is precisely why the Republic stands at a crossroads. Following the Raxus address, this rhetoric from C’baoth had only been exemplified. C’baoth had also become growingly concerned with the Anti-Jedi rhetoric in the Galactic Senate, something that would be exemplified during a Senate hearing. C’baoth here had accompanied the Senator of Dantooine Hito prior to her retirement. In this session, Master Jorus had a public bout of words with the Senator of Aldeeran Tyrion. The two had come into disagreement over the role of the Jedi, which Master C’baoth argued had been too little and thus the crisis had escalated, the Senator of Aldeeran disagreed strongly.
This confrontation subsided but left a strong impression upon the Jedi Diplomat. After the meeting, Master C’baoth submitted strategic proposals to the Jedi High Council, which were mostly ignored. This led to a dispute at the Jedi Temple at Ashas with Masters Fisto and Plo Koon about the Order's direction. Frustrated by waiting two hours, C’baoth insisted the Jedi must proactively support the Republic and neutral worlds for an imminent major conflict. However, the Order's focus shifted to investigating Darth Vynn, and Master Mace Windu recalled C’baoth from his role as Jedi Ambassador.
Master C’baoth was enraged with the Jedi’s decision to recall him from his diplomatic post but did not cease in his petitions. A second petition was issued following a meeting with Senator Hito from Dantooine, and he had received an audience of the wider Jedi High Council including Master Windu, Master Sicarius, Master Kenobi & Fisto and Master Plo Koon. This meeting was short, a 5-minute dismissal of his recommendations and a suggestion for him to cease in his requests, and that the Jedi Order would watch the situation carefully. C’baoth was livid following this decision and retreated to his quarters on Coruscant. He concluded that the Council no longer aligned with the intentions of the Force, prompting him to examine his research extensively. He reviewed the notes from his time at the Jedi Training Service and revisited his thesis on the 'Morality and Path of the Ashla,' ultimately falling asleep during his thorough study. In his sleep, he received an almost prophetic dream. In this dream, he argued with himself, at least what he believed was himself, a spectral light figure in his image.
## The Ashla’s Lost Servant
The confrontation was direct, C’baoth had approached the Sith shrine with his Padawan and the Jedi Knight to end it. Once he arrived it spoke to him, even attempted to court him to his side. It felt his dissatisfaction but believed he was weak enough to fall for its lies. His padawan and the knight were not so strong willed and fell to its temptations, something he found unacceptable. The Dark spectre incapacitated him as he rebuked it, throwing him to the corner. But C’baoth was not gone but instead thrown into a wild rage. The Jedi here was pitiful, weak minded, and shallow. The Ashla spoke to him here, ‘destroy it,’ ‘wage a war of light against it.’ C’baoth threw away his lightsaber so he could muster a storm of good. As he arose, he approached the slab, the spheres and his weak underlings, and with his hands grew a storm of purple, blue, and his will and anger, balling into a cloud of blinding twisted light.
He hurled it at the Spectre and at the spheres around it, destroying them. Then he turned his attention to his apprentice and knight, both he grabbed and raised with the force. Calling them weak, pitiful, disgraces, forcing them to bend the knee to him. He saw their crimson blades and ordered them to desecrate this shrine to prove to the Ashla that they did not accept the lies and tricks of the Bogan. After the spectre appeared, it lingered. C’baoth confronted it and was incapacitated, along with his Padawan and Jedi Knight Volhaar. In sleep, Ashla praised him for courage and devotion. Without C’baoth realizing it, the more he listened to this Ashla, the further he strayed from the true essence of the Light and the genuine voice of the Ashla. His thoughts slowly changed, which distorted his sense of reality. The slide into madness and darkness often happens gradually and without warning.
C’baoth spent at least a week drifting in space, his memory unclear after leaving Coruscant with his padawans. His ship leaked fuel and couldn’t fly, but he managed to signal a passing junk ship for help. Forced to sell his shuttle, C’baoth bought a basic ship with minimal features that ultimately crashed on Dantooine. When he returned, Master Secura was surprised to see him, but his arrival drew little attention, and Master Kenobi quickly lost interest in C’baoth’s story, which seemed suspiciously convenient. When he returned, he was informed a message was left in scripted on Dantooine, targeted towards him. And a call was made to his holocommunicator which he declined as he did not know who it was from. However, the message was clear to understand; his Padawan and Knight Volhaar were alive, and they could not meet. Not at the least for quite some time…
## The Chief Ambassador
> In war, words hold more power than any Star Destroyer or Clone Legion. Only Jedi are experts in this kind of warfare.
In the weeks after his arrival, it was business as usual for the Master. He was called to service once again as a Jedi Ambassador, serving on the Council of First Knowledge and taking his role as Chief Ambassador of the Jedi Order. Here, C’baoth had begun to expand the portfolio of the COFK and begin the foundations to create the Jedi Diplomatic Corp. He began pushing for a stronger diplomatic role for the Jedi, but was limited in scope by the High Council, who decreed the Jedi must remain neutral, especially within the Republic. To his displeasure, C’baoth had to accept this as a fact but continued to plan around it. Meeting with several Senators particularly in the Diplomatic and Foreign Relations Committee. Volhaar were alive, and they could not meet. Not at the least for quite some time.
During this period, C’baoth was approached by his Padawan regarding the pursuit of Vynn, which could more accurately be described as an attempt to evade Vynn. The strategy involved drawing the Dark Lord to a specific world in order to entrap them. C’baoth gave little consideration to this proposal, as the Ashla advised him to disregard his Padawan’s request. He declined to participate in what he viewed as a misguided endeavor. Instead, C’baoth concentrated on what he considered the primary concern: the Republic. The Senate had undermined its credibility with the incident involving the Venator, and the negotiations failed due to insufficient expertise. At present, C’baoth believed only he possessed the intellectual capacity and skill within the Order to effectively engage with the Separatist representatives, attributing ongoing challenges to general incompetence. But this incompetence led them to the current situation, where war was inevitable. The Senate sent an ultimatum he viewed as punitive and stupid to any long-term diplomatic envoys. It made them look like the aggressor, but it was unavoidable. The most serious incident involved the Senator from Kamino, who reacted negatively when the Chancellor was granted Emergency powers. The Senator left in protest over procedural concerns, making it seem as though the unstable Republic might collapse entirely. Acting swiftly as Chief Ambassador, C’baoth approached the Senator to encourage negotiations. However, this effort proved unnecessary, as the Chancellor’s actions had already resolved the situation.
Following the diplomatic incident, it became more and more apparent there was a diplomatic failure in the Republic. First C’baoth expanded the Diplomatic Corp to incorporate new Interns and an additioanl Ambassador. He was given full reign over the Ambassadors, and this would become his little Kingdom, his little Order. It was here C’baoth began to be consulted by the Ashla that it was necessary to create a Shining City on a Hill in this galaxy of darkness and chaos. His visions only exaggerated, became more overt, on what was the necessary path. And in his bliss, he was called back to reality as he was reminded again of his Padawan. It was like a nuisance, but one he could not ignore.
# Obi-Wan Kenobi
## Early Life
Obi-Wan Kenobi was born on the planet of Stewjon. Force-sensitive from birth, he was taken from his family as a child and instated into the [Jedi Order](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/jedi-order "The Jedi Order"). He trained in the Jedi Temple on Dantooine, where he was ultimately taken as a Padawan by Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn.
Kenobi earned his Knighthood by defeating the Sith Lord Darth Maul during the Invasion of Naboo, the first recorded defeat of a Sith in a thousand years. In his final moments after being fatally wounded by Maul, Qui-Gon Jinn asked Kenobi to train Anakin Skywalker, a boy believed to be the predicted Chosen One, fated to destroy the Sith and restore balance to the Force. Kenobi recognized that pledge.
## Personality and Leadership
Kenobi leads through illustration and earns his respect rather than demanding it. He thinks before he acts, a quality that has sometimes put him at odds with further impulsive Jedi like Quinlan Vos, whose habit of striking first has complicated furthermore than one situation where Kenobi was trying to navigate it precisely. He doesn't hold it against them. He understands the instinct.
He carries the weight of his pledge to Qui-Gon Jinn quietly. His training of Anakin Skywalker runs parallel to everything else he does; a responsibility he treats with the same seriousness he brings to commanding armies and reforming institutions.
The Jedi who served with him at Carida and went through the events on Ashas describe him as steady under conditions that unmade others. That immutability is what earned him the rank of Grand Master of the Order and what defines how he now leads the Order.
## The Clone Wars
### The Corruption of Ashas
During the early stages of the Clone Wars, Jedi patrolling outside the Temple of Ashas uncovered numerous Sith artifacts, including an ancient lightsaber. Kenobi reported the findings to the High Council and made his concerns about a Sith presence explicit.
He noticed something wrong with a Jedi Master named Asta during a private meeting shortly after. Asta carried himself differently, tense in a way that felt like corruption rather than stress. Kenobi proposed they should meditate together to probe the situation. Asta agreed. As Kenobi entered the meditation, his mind filled with darkness. By the time he came out of it, Asta was already gone. At a High Council session on Dantooine, a dark spirit appeared in the council chamber and claimed a Padawan named Lego Nubby as its apprentice before vanishing.
Days later, the Order received word of a Sith cave near the Temple on Ashas. All available Jedi Masters and Knights deployed to locate and destroy whatever presence was in it. Inside, a Sith Lord calling herself Vynn sat waiting. Combat broke out. During the fight, Kenobi found himself facing a dark Force projection of himself and was pulled into battle with it. He won, but Vynn had already disappeared.
One month later, Kenobi led a force including Yoda, Quinlan Vos, and a group of Sentinels back to the evacuated Temple on Ashas to reclaim it. The temple appeared empty on first appearance; however, it was not. A gathering of Sith Acolytes occupied the former High Council chamber. As Kenobi entered first and attempted to question them, Quinlan struck before negotiations could even begin. The Jedi overpowered the acolytes and sealed the temple with a barrier of light.
Months later, Jorus brought the Order to Coruscant to pursue Vynn, who intelligence suggested was hiding there. Instead of finding her, they found a Sith shrine built through a pool of blood. The shrine radiated a dark aura and could disintegrate any non-Force-sensitive who entered its radius. The screaming of tortured souls echoed from its core.
A week later, Grand Master Kenobi led the full Order against the shrine with the intent of ending Vynn permanently. After surrounding and investigating the structure, Vynn revealed herself. The battle was brutal and required the participation of the entire Order. It ended in a Jedi victory.
### [The Siege of Carida](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/lore-story-arcs-USz/page/the-siege-of-carida "The Siege of Carida")
When the [Confederacy of Independent Systems](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/chapter/the-confederacy "CIS") launched a full-scale invasion of Carida, a strategically vital Republic world, the Republic responded immediately. Clone forces already stationed on the planet held the initial assault while a Venator-class Star Destroyer defended the atmosphere. The Venator was destroyed in the fighting, allowing the [CIS](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/chapter/the-confederacy "CIS") to land, occupy the planet, and establish a blockade cutting off all entry and exit.
After weeks of sustained combat and the confirmed presence of a Sith assassin on the ground, Grand Master Yoda issued an executive order mobilizing the entire [Jedi Order](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/jedi-order "The Jedi Order"). An elite Jedi detachment would deploy alongside Republic Special Forces to break the Separatist hold on Carida. Obi-Wan Kenobi led the ground assault. Marshal Commander Sand led the space campaign above.
As the ground team finalized their offensive plan to neutralize the Sith assassin, word came that she was already moving toward them. Kenobi acted immediately, breaking from the group and intercepting her star fighter as it entered the Republic Venator Invictus. He confronted her in the hangar bay and fought her off while simultaneously holding back waves of B2 Super Battle Droids.
The Invictus had already been evacuated, and multiple Separatist Munificent-class frigates were closing on its position. Obi-Wan returned to his own ship, the Concordia. Shortly after, reports came in that the assassin had found Jedi Master Mace Windu aboard the Invictus, who had remained on the bridge alone. Before Kenobi could respond, Windu was already down, his arm severed in the fight.
With the blockade collapsing and the window open, Kenobi led the Jedi Assault Team to the surface aboard a LAAT/s gunship. The remaining Separatist ground forces fell quickly. Carida was liberated. The environmental damage was severe, and the battle's scale sent shockwaves through the Republic. It was declared the opening engagement of the Clone Wars.
### Reform of the High Council
The Siege of Carida made the dysfunction of the Jedi High Council impossible to ignore. Kenobi and Grand Master Yoda had both seen it clearly, and on Tython following the battle they confronted it directly. Kenobi stopped waiting for change and started building it, speaking openly with the Jedi he had served alongside, rallying those who had reached the same conclusion. The pressure worked. Five of the seven sitting High Councilors stepped down.
With only Kenobi and Yoda remaining, Kenobi was elevated to Master of the Order. Shortly after, Yoda departed on a personal journey, leaving the Order behind. Kenobi earned the title of Grand Master through seniority.
He used the position immediately. Five individuals who had supported him throughout his time on the council and had long advocated for reform were personally selected to fill the new council. The composition of the Jedi High Council changed fundamentally under his leadership.
# Plo-Koon
## Overview
Master Plo-Koon, revered Master in the jedi order, was known for his bravery and Wisdom among other Jedi in the Order. Master Plo, Unfortunately died in combat on Christophsis at the age of 385 to the hands of count dooku.
## Early Life
Plo Koon was born on the planet Dorin. At some point, Koon was discovered by the Jedi Order and was selected to be the Padawan of Jedi Master Tyvokka. After Warlord Guattako kidnapped several children to make them part of his on the planet Salon, Jedi Master Mace Windu was sent in 34 BY to find and rescue them. Eventually, Wind was able to defeat all of Guattako’s army. Guttako was shot by one of the children. Shortly after Guattako was murdered, Plo Koon, along with Dept Bilabial, and Qui-Gon Jinn arrived on the planet to help.
In 33 BY, Plo Koon was on a mission to the planet Chili, the home world of the Tortuga. While there, he discovered a young force-sensitive Tortuga child named Asoka Tano. Plo Koon brought Asoka Tano back to the Jedi Order to ensure she could be trained as a Jedi, and ever since they have remained in touch, maintaining a close bond and friendship. By the year 33 BY, Plo Koon had achieved the rank of Jedi Master and was elevated to the position of a permanent seat on the Jedi High Council with the recommendation coming from his late Jedi Master.
"Master Plo with his men early on in the war."## Story
Plo's recent history is very depressing but also rich in legendary moments. As he became a Higher and Higher rank within the jedi order, his council would make several attempts to route him out of the Order as a whole, Likely upset at his ability to reach the rank he did. This however, did not stop him.
He would go on to fight on Carida both against the IRC Terrorists, and the CiS alongside the Wolfpack. He also fought in several campaigns on Christophsis, where he witnessed a great deal of good men perish to the hands of the Count of Serrano. On multiple occasions, Plo would end up dueling the count, Once resulting in his capture. He was able to escape capture after careful planning with other jedi in regards to escaping. Luckily being able to run into his rescue team on the way out, allowing them to have reinforced numbers for their Exfil.
Afterwards, he was immediately redeployed to Christophsis where he fought valiantly and freed two cities, before being deployed to take prime. Which was done successfully. It was at this moment, the forces of fate came together to tie up master Plo's story, As he was sent back to christophsis where he would ultimately die fighting for what he believed in.
"Carida Stands."## Abilities
Compassionate and Humanizing Leader: Plo Koon stood out for his care of clone troopers, often prioritizing their lives, which earned him immense loyalty, particularly from Clone Commander Wolffe.
Serene and Level-Headed: He maintained an "unflappable calm" in high-pressure situations, rarely panicked, and provided calm analysis in the Jedi Council.
Wise and Unconventional: Regarded as a wise mentor, he was open to unconventional solutions, showing flexibility in his approach to justice and warfare.
Extremely Loyal and Protective: He was deeply committed to his friends and troops, although he always prioritized his duty and rarely let emotions cloud his judgment.

## Downfall
Master Plo was deployed to the grounds of Christophsis with the mission of defending it against the ruthless droid army. He fought valiantly alongside his men. Slaying hundreds of droids in the process alongside master yoda. He and yoda would then however stumble into the HQ of Count Dooku, under the presumption that it was a supply depot. They then engaged in fierce combat with the count, until master Yoda ran in fear in the middle of battle, leaving the Outgunned Plo Koon to be all alone, giving every ounce of power he has just to ensure a small chance of survival. Ultimately, it didnt matter, as in his final moments, he was struck down by the count, all alone, betrayed and hated by the council he worked among for all of his life. He lived a lonely life unsure if anyone was truly there for him. His death, however, was not in vein. He died having unknowingly saved the lives of two of his Men.
"Two hurricanes fighting for supremacy."## Trivia

He also had the ability known as force judgement, a pure, light side form of force lightning.
He was excellent in saber and unarmed combat.
He was almost as skilled of a pilot as anakin skywalker.

## Early Life
Rawlan Jall was born in the great city of Kahiyuk, Kashyyyk. As the middle "pup" of his family, He matured in a more reserved manner than his other siblings, he grew for several years as a regular Wookiee, before his connection to the force was fully realized when he subconsciously used the force to pull himself to a vine after falling from the top of a record high Wroshyr Tree.
This prompted his village elders to almost immediately contact The Jedi Order. Who were eager to add an individual with such dormant power at a young age into their ranks. Jall swiftly progressed as a youngling before descending the caves of illum to achieve a green kyber crystal, signifying great mental fortitude and wisdom; All while being exceptionally strong physically.

# Vanto Silar
## **Overview**
Vanto Silar was born on the Core World planet of Brentaal IV, centered between the Hydian Way and Perlemian Trade Route. Even for his age, he was well-versed in both the business and economic sides of galactic trade, but also the dark side of piracy. He was discovered by the Jedi Order after months of occasions where he could hear the impressions left behind on objects, revealing lucrative and secretive schemes that had taken place weeks prior. Because of this ability, he was quickly targeted by pirates and shady tradesmen before being finally found and brought to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant.
Vanto was the first Jedi to assemble to a team to find, excavate, and recreate ancient Old Republic era armor, and weaponry in thousands of years. He, among his two friends, Lego Nubby and Volhaar Sivrak were corrupted by Darth Vynn, in which he recruited them to this journey for power. Through gaining this power in the form of weaponry and armor, over 2 years of being missing and hunted by the Jedi Order, he and his team had finished their hunt for power. They had then taken it to Coruscant, with the aide of Master Jorus C'Baoth, to trap Darth Vynn, and later eliminate her; freeing them of Vynns corruption.
Vanto Silar has since returned to the Jedi Order, and aided in several major battles, such as the battles for Tophen City and Leesis City on Christophsis and Lessu City on Ryloth. He has now developed several allies and relationships with the Grand Clone Army of the Republic, and the Galactic Senate.

## Skills and Equipment
Kal has been seen wielding a WESTAR-35 carbine and a **beskar spear**, although the spear was given as a gift from Count Skirata to N-11 "Ordo" for his performance in battle and as a token of his Mandalorian heritage.
# Mand'alor Kyu Vizsla
## Historical Records
Kyu was born into House Vizsla in 950.V.4 RSY. What transpired before the events of the Mandalorian Wars that they call the "Great War" leaves what little data exists, obscured to the republic. All that is known is that before their rise to power, the clans of Mandalore were scattered and in a state of civil unrest under the leadership of Mand'alor Pre Vizsla. After the fog of war cleared and connection to Mandalore was restored, a new Mand'alor was titled, **Mand'alor the Reclaimer**.

Vizsla is seen most often with their set of **beskar armor**, modified with her own unique markings, such as Jaig Eyes earned from prowess in battle, and her House Signet on her pauldrons. She uniquely wears a **Jai'Galaar** pattern helmet, with pilot attachments. She is also seen wielding a **beskar spear**, a WESTAR-35C carbine, and a single WESTAR-35 pistol. Although not much of her feats are public to the Republic outside of the few sightings through RIB's intelligence network, she seems to favor melee combat over ranged, opting to use her spear whenever possible.

# Keirtz Ket’zom
## **Overview**
**Keirtz Ket’zom**, known as *“The Scavenger,”* is a Twi’lek **bounty hunter** who operates under the appearance of a neutral scavenger captain. Unlike those who make headlines with grand conflicts or massive contracts, Ket’zom specializes in smaller, highly specific assignments. These jobs frequently escape immediate notice, their impact only becoming apparent later.This low profile is his greatest asset, enabling him to operate in various territories without drawing much attention.
Most who encounter him see a trader or scavenger moving between systems, dealing in recovered materials from recent battles and salvage. This allows him to operate with minimal interference, often passing through contested planets without raising any suspicion. He is also known to observe situations long before acting, identifying before executing. This approach makes him and his contracts difficult to trace.
Keirtz’s operations tend to show him doing scavengers work. making him a valuable but unpredictable figure. Whether recovering lost assets, extracting individuals, or influencing events from the background, his presence is rarely obvious, but often significant once uncovered.
He's the captain of 3 ships, which are the primary method of transport for Keritz and his crew, composed of various armed species seeking adventure and recourses. They joined Keirtz crew as an alternative to dying quickly during usual contract thanks to his way of planning, which brings them motivation, loyalty, excitement, and enthusiasm at all times.
## **Early Life**
Keirtz was born into a minor clan on Ryloth, where his way of thinking set him apart, which made him lose any ties with his clan due to several critics he recieved constantly, attaching him only to his parents. Unfortunately, after losing his parents at a young age, he chose to leave rather than remain dependent on a community that did not accept him.
He began to look after any method to leave Ryloth, as he didn't want to know anything about it, 2 months later, through a contract with some off world traders, he finally left Ryloth and eventually arrived on Tatooine. There, he adapted to a more demanding environment, taking on smaller, often illegal jobs and gradually building the skills that would define his work nowadays.
While working on Tatooine, Keirtz was involved in a solo contract that led to an encounter with a Rancor. The situation escalated beyond what he had anticipated, leaving him with the loss of one eye and severe damage to the other. He fortunately lived before he was found by some Jawas. Since then, he relies on a visual device that assists his vision, along with a mask that helps him endure the harsh desert conditions that affected his health over time.
*Moments before the Rancor attacked Keirtz.*
Not long after, Keirtz and a small group of individuals he worked with took control of three vessels by eliminating their former captains. The operation was planned and executed carefully, as it was a really risky mission, then giving him full control over his mobility and resources. From that point on, he began operating independently, taking on sector-wide contracts.
### **The War as Opportunity**
With the Clone Wars beginning, Keirtz found an opportunity that totally suited his way of operating. The constant movement of recourses, on going leaderships shifts of territories, and the need for information created huge opportunities for Keirtz, who could move between sides without drawing any attention.
He maintains a neutral reputation, allowing him to operate in both Republic, CIS and indepentant planets. His work involves infiltration, information gathering, location analisis, and recovering targets or materials. Keirtz doesn't formally align himself with any faction, however, he frequently takes contracts from the CIS, as their operations provide consistent work, resources, and opportunities to upgrade his and his crew's equipment.
Keirtz commands a small fleet of three civilian looking ships, each one named as things that remind him of the past: *Dust Run*, *Scrap*, and *Blind Eye.* Having another intention on the interiors, this allows him to travel freely while maintaining the capability to carry out covert contracts when needed. Each ship serves a practical purpose, from transport to recovery and infiltration.
Across the galaxy, Keirtz is generally seen as a neutral scavenger or contractor, someone predictable and safe to deal and speak with. Among CIS contacts, however, he is recognized as a bounty hunter who can handle tasks that require good thinking and planning rather than unexpected force. His work rarely draws attention, but it is consistently effective.
