[b][i][color=aba000]Personality[/color][/i][/b]: Bronze is an amazing strategist, and no stranger to taking risks. He knows the old saying "No risk, no reward," and he goes by that when planning his strategies. He's not the type of Commander to stand at the back and order the troops around. He'll be right up in the heat of it with the rest of his troopers. He fights for them, and they fight for him in return. He's a cunning marksman with his pistols, but prefers the bigger guns, specifically the Z-6 Rotary Cannon.

[b][i][color=aba000]Backstory[/color][/i][/b]: Bronze was one of millions of clones of Jango Fett, commissioned by Jedi Master Sifo Dias. He was a Commander at the time of the First Battle of Geonosis, and led his unit behind enemy lines to flank them. He was accompanied by Jedi Knight Kelen Rolin, who was impressed by the unorthodox tactics used by the Clone Commander. Bronze had a small unit that he would directly lead in combat. During that day on Geonosis, they destroyed more IG-227 Hailfire-Class Droid Tanks than any other unit, earning them the name of Hailfire Squad.

Following the battle, Bronze was placed in command of the 117th Attack Battalion. They were shipped out to the Outer Rim Territories to aid in the growing war against the Confederacy of Independant Systems. As with most Clone Units at the time, they were also assigned a Jedi General. This would happen to be Amon Rictor, the former master of Kelen Rolin.

At the Battle of Fondor, Rictor and Bronze would come face to face with General Grievous, one of his first appearances. Both would survive, but Bronze would lose his left arm, and be left with a scar on the side of his face. His arm was later replaced by a cybernetic implant, which took some time to break in, but now he loves it more than his old organic arm.

A few months after, Rictor would have to leave for Jedi Council business. His replacement would be Kelen Rolin, the Jedi Bronze had fought with on Geonosis. Some time later, Rolin would leave for Coruscant, and return with a new Padawan, the Twilek girl Teela Kamara. Over time, Bronze and Teela would form a strong friendship, just about as strong as the one he had with Rolin. Following this, the 117th would continue to serve in the Outer Rim Territories.
