"I've fought alongside the best, but that doesn't make me the best. The fact that I survived does."

Clone Number: ARC-1949

Nickname: Flash

Appearance: His face has little to tell, except that it looks as if it's grown weary of the ongoing war. His hair is dyed a bright red, and his eyes are the standard brown clone color. His armor tells a lot more about him. The color is a dark GOLD color. He wears the Phase 2 ARC Trooper armor. His helmet has a single stripe down the center of the helmet, with a single red triangle on the forehead in the center of the line. He has what is made to look like a massive slash across his chest in the came color as his armor. He has a blast pauldron and kama, as well as two holsters for DC-17 Pistols at his waist. The rest of the paint is the standard arm stripes and kneecap armor points.

Equipment/Weaponry:

• Westar-M5 Assault Rifle
• DC-17 Pistols (Silenced) (x2)
• Thermal Detonators (x4)
• Clone Jetpack (When Needed)
• Recon Utility Pack
• Mini-Holoprojector

Personality: He's seen the war through from the beginning, and these days he's grown used to the constant screaming and blasterfire across the battlefield. That doesn't mean that he doesn't care about his brothers. He, maybe more than anyone, wants to see this blasted war end, and he'll give his own life if it means earning ultimate victory against the heartless, soulless machines of the CIS Army.

Backstory: Flash is a one of millions of Clone Troopers serving in the Grand Army of the Republic. He survived the crucible of Geonosis, and was afterward assigned to the 117th Attack Battalion following the battle. He served in Rage Company, under the command of CC-7011 Captain Rigger. A few months passed, and he began to show exemplary skills that ended up making him a candidate for the ARC Trooper Program.

During this time he took on the name Flash, and painted his new Prototype Phase 2 ARC Trooper Armor. He returned to the 117th the same man that had left, but with advanced training and a new look about him. With his new rank also came new weaponry possibilities, especially one of his new favorite weapons, the Westar-M5 Assault Rifle.

"I've learned from my past mistakes, but that still doesn't mean I'll talk about it. Some things are better left unsaid."

Name: Kelen Rolin

Gender: Male

Species: Human

Jedi Rank: Jedi Knight

Military Rank: General

Age: 27 Standard Years

Appearance: Approx. 5 ft. 7 in., he has brown eyes and brown hair. He wears a standard tan Jedi Tunic for the upper portion of his body, but prefers normal combat type pants instead of traditional jedi wear. He usually wears a utility belt capable of holding his Dual Lightsabers, DC-17m Interchangable Weapon, as well as gadgets such as communicators and holomaps. He also wears a custom created visor in ground combat and starfighter combat. It provides him his vitals on the ground and his ship's when he's flying.

Equipment/Weaponry:

• Lightsaber - Blue (Original Saber)
• Lightsaber - Green (Lisha Vortua's Saber)
• DC-17m Interchangeable Weapon
• Jedi Communicator
• Mini-Holoprojector
• Custom Visor

Lightsaber Forms:

• Form I: Shii-Cho
• Form V: Shien/Djem So
• Form VI: Niman

Personality: Rolin is a fearless leader and a brilliant tactician. His traits have been compared to those of Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker. He seems to fear no danger, and will fight on the front lines until the bitter end. He is quite compasionate about the troops under his command, his friends, and his brothers and sisters in the Jedi Order. If they are in danger, he will put his life on the line to protect them. He is an honerable warrior, unless the enemy is being "Less than honerable."

Backstory: He was born on the Planet Corellia, and brought to the Jedi Temple about 15 years before the Naboo Crisis. He became the Padawan to Jedi Knight Amon Rictor at the age of 10, and faced the Jedi Trials and became a Knight at the age of 15. He served as one of many Jedi Peacekeepers in the Outer Rim Territories until he was 27, when he and many other Jedi were sent by Master Mace Windu to save Master Obi-Wan Kenobi on Geonosis, the battle after which sparked the Clone Wars.

Afterwards he was selected by Master Yoda and Master Windu as one of four Jedi to form the first, and to this date only, Jedi Commando Team. For the first few months of the Clone Wars, they were assigned to missions across the Outer Rim. In this time, Rolin would form an especially close bond with one of the members, a human girl named Lisha Vortua. Their relationship fringed on the edge of the Jedi Code, but they didn't dare go farther than that.

On the team's final mission, they were sent to Rhen Var to gather intelligence on Separatist bases in the system. It was there that they met the fearsome General Grievous, who would end up killing three members of the team, including Vortua. Rolin managed to escape alive, and the Jedi Commando Program was disbanded. Rolin still keeps and uses Vortua's Lightsaber in memory of his fallen friend and sister of the Jedi Order.

Following this, Rolin was assigned to the 117th Attack Battalion in the Outer Rim. Not too long after, Rolin realized that there was some kind of hole in his life, something he wanted to fill. He realized he wanted to take on a Padawan Learner. He chose Teela Kamara, a shy Twilek girl, as he sensed great promise within her.

Since then, he has been fighting throughout the Outer Rim alongside the 117th. He commands a prototype warship, the Republic Battleship, alongside Admiral Edward Millon.

[Shiny Keldeo]

"They say negotiations and battles are two different things. The way I see it, they're the same thing, just done in different ways."

Name: Teela Kamara

Gender: Female

Species: Twilek

Jedi Rank: Jedi Padawan

Military Rank: Commander

Age: 15 Standard Years

Appearance: Brown skinned, with bright blue eyes and what can only be described as an inquisitive look on her face. She wears a tan Jedi Tunic like her master, but she wears a bottom half as a traditional Jedi dress, reaching down to her feet. She has a utility belt which holds her Lightsaber, Communicator, and other necessities. She also has a custom made visor like her master, who made it for her.

Equipment/Weaponry:

• Lightsaber - Blue
• Jedi Communicator
• Mini-Holoprojector
• Custom Visor

Lightsaber Forms:

• Form I: Shii-Cho
• Form V: Shien/Djem So

Personality: She has always been timid around strangers, even with her fellow younglings at the Jedi Temple. Once she gets to know you though, you see she's a relatively normal girl, given that she's a Jedi of course. In combat, she becomes a whole different person. She goes with the flow of the force, often becomming somewhat aggressive on the battlefield. She is quite intuitive, managing to pick up on tasks without much effort.

Backstory: Teela Kamara was born on the Planet Ryloth about 14 years before the Clone Wars. She was found 12 years before the Clone Wars, and brought to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant to be trained in the ways of the force. However, as she grew, she held onto a timid nature for her time there, usually being completely silent and preferring to be alone.

Slowly she grew to make some close friends, all of whom eventually were chosen to be Padawan Learners. After the start of the Clone Wars, many more younglings were being chosen by Jedi Knights and Masters as Padawans. A few months after the initial battle of the Clone Wars, she was chosen by Jedi Knight Kelen Rolin as his Padawan Learner. She would go with him to the Outer Rim with the 117th Attack Battalion, in their campaign against the Separatist Forces there.

"As long as I've been in combat, they've said a bigger gun doesn't matter. In my opinion, they're right. But, it's still nice to have the bigger gun."

Clone Number: CC-7501

Military Rank: Commander

Nickname: Bronze

Appearance: Bronze's face has changed almost none, save for a scar next to his left eye from a wound that almost cost him that eye. He wears Tank Gunner armor with a kama and two pistol holsters. On his shoulder pads are the emblem of a Hailfire Droid, the adopted symbol of the elite Hailfire Squad. His armor points are all colored in the 117th dark gold color. His helmet has a radio antenne and miniature flashlight on either side.

Equipment/Weaponry:

• Z-6 Rotary Cannon
• DC-15s Blaster
• DC-17 Pistol (Silenced) (x2)
• Thermal Detonator (x2)
• EMP Grenade (x2)
• Mini-Holocommunicator

Personality: 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.

Backstory: 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.

"How can a leader expect to be followed if he does not give respect to his troops and earn theirs? That is why so many promising leaders fail... I was not one of them."

Name: Edward Millon

Gender: Male

Species: Human

Military Rank: Admiral

Age: 25 Standard Years

Appearance: Often wearing a Republic Berrett and Republic Naval attire, Millon is 5 ft. 8 in. He has brown hair with brown eyes. His hair is usually combed over, but often isn't seen due to the berrett he usually wears. He usually keeps himself clean shaven and well managed, but there are times he forgets to or doesn't have time to.

Weaponry/Equipment:

• DC-15s Sidearm
• DC-15s Blaster

Personality: When you first meet him, he can seem a bit strict, imposing, even frightening. After knowing him for a while, he turns out to be a pretty calm, collected, and likeable guy. He only puts on that persona because of his position. As his friend, he's the kind of guy who you'd invite out for a drink on Coruscant some time. On the battlefield, all this is pushed to the back of his mind, and he goes into his officer mode. He'll holler out orders left and right, and likes to employ the tactic of taking down cruisers one at a time if possible, focusing all firepower on a single target, usually the biggest and most troublesome.

Backstory: Millon was born on the planet Corellia 25 years before the Battle of Geonosis. His parents were a middle class family who greatly supported the Republic, though many people were beginning to lose faith in the Republic Government at this time. As early as he could, he enrolled in the Anaxas Naval Academy, though there was little call for it at the time. Millon wanted a position in the Republic, and a Position on a Ship, so this was the best of both worlds.

It was here he actually met Kelen Rolin, a Jedi Padawan at the time. The two became fast friends, and both pledged to meet again after Rolin had to depart from Anaxas with his master. He studied hard, and was nearly acing every exam he was given. He graduated only a few months after the Naboo Crisis. He wasn't the top of his class, but he was one of the most popular students and many wished him well as his career took off. Often he was dispatched on missions using his Consular Class Cruiser, usually transporting Diplomats across the galaxy and back.

Several years passed, and soon it became apparent that a split in the Galaxy had occurred. Inevitably, war broke out following the Battle of Geonosis. With his service record, he was assigned as Captain of the Venator Star Cruiser "Excalibur". However, his promotion was short lived. The Excalibur was attacked by a Separatist Fleet. Almost all hands were lost, including the Admiral of the ship. Millon was one of only about twenty survivors. The ship was destroyed, but he was given a medal of honor for his actions, which saved the lives of the survivors.

He was promoted to Admiral, and was selected to command a new prototype warship, designated as the Republic Battleship. Millon was even given the honor of naming the ship, and he named it after the first Venator he had served on. Not long after, the Excalibur was linked up with the Naval Fleet of the 117th Attack Battalion, under... Kelen Rolin. As he had pledged, he would meet his old friend once more. Now, both were in the highest positions possible, and they had to look good for each other.

"Compassion is a very loose term. I show my troops compassion by having them run drills during our free time. It keeps them prepared and ready for battle, ready to survive. If that's not compassion, I don't know what is."

Clone Number: CC-7011

Military Rank: Captain

Nickname: Rigger

Appearance: He wears Phase 1 Clone Trooper Armor, fitted with a Blast Pauldron and Kama, as well as a single Ranger Finder attached to his helmet. He has holsters for Dual DC-17 Pistols at his side. His armor color is white with the standard Battalion Decals along his arms and legs. His Pauldron is mostly gray with an edge in the 117th Gold Color. His helmet has two lines running down from the back of the helmet to the top of the visor. The Cheekplates are completely filled in with the color, and he has a Red Triangle in the center of his helmet. His hair remains the standard brown hair, but trimmed down quite a bit.

Personality: Strict and by the book, that is Rigger in a nutshell. However, he has perfect reasoning behind that. He believes that making sure his troops are ready for ANYTHING will keep them alive a lot longer. He makes sure he keeps his skills sharp as well, not wanting to slip up. He's another officer who will stand alongside you on the frontlines. After all, if the Commander doesn't fight, why would his troops? He's almost always serious, and doesn't takes compliments with a grain of salt.

Equipment/Weaponry:

• DC-17 Pistol (x2)
• DC-15s Blaster
• Thermal Detonator (x2)
• EMP Grenade (x2)
• Clone Jetpack (When Called For...)

Backstory: Captain Rigger is a Clone Trooper Captain serving in the Grand Army of the Republic. He did not participate in the Battle of Geonosis, but was brought in afterward as the Clone Wars began. He was placed in the 117th Attack Battalion, under the command of Clone Commander Bronze. He was placed in command of Rage Company, a detachment of the 117th Battalion that specialized in heavy weapons and encampment.

He would prove to be an effective officer throughout his tour of duty, leading Rage Company to victory in many key assaults throughout the Outer Rim Territories. After Jedi General Kelen Rolin took command of the 117th, he began implementing some of the unorthodox strategies of him and Commander Bronze to better affirm his rank. His improved strategies earned him a solid spot among the command staff of the 117th.

He currently still serves with the 117th Attack Battalion in the Outer Rim, under General Rolin, Commander Bronze, and Admiral Edward Millon.

"You can call me green, but don't you dare call me yellow. I'm not afraid to die for what I fight for, can you say the same?"

Clone Number: CL-1692

Military Rank: Lieutenant

Nickname: Rewind

Appearance: Rewind wears Phase 1 Clone Trooper Armor. It is equipped with a kama and visor. The armor is painted in the 117th Attack Battalion color in standard decoration (Arms, Knees, Helmet). His face still has that look of a young trooper who hasn't had as much experience as his senior officers. He has the standard brown eyes and hair, in the usual clone hair style.

Personality: Rewind is a clone who knows and accepts what he is. He know's he's not an experienced strategist like Commander Bronze, a strict and controlling CO like Captain Rigger. He's fresh, green, someone who's new to the actual battlefield and only knows what the simulations taught him. However, he's got enough street smarts about him to survive and lead in combat effectively. Those placed under his command learn this, and all his experience in the battlefield he puts forward into learning new strategies for the next battle.

Equipment/Weaponry:

• DC-15a Blaster Rifle
• DC-15s Blaster
• Thermal Detonator (x2)
• EMP Grenade (x2)

Backstory: Rewind is a Clone Trooper serving in the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars. He completed his training and was assigned to the 117th Attack Battalion's Rage Company as a Lieutenant about three months after the Battle of Geonosis.

Immediately the clones began chastizing him, calling him out for receiving such a high position as his first assignment off Kamino. In his first battle, however, he showed how effective a leader he could be. The droids in this battle had been programmed to react to the unorthodox strategies of Jedi General Kelen Rolin and Clone Commander Bronze. Rewind led his unit in a textbook assault on the droid forces, catching them by surprise.

At the end of the day, Rewind and his unit returned intact to Captain Rigger, who congratulated him on a job well done, something rare to hear from the Captain. Afterwards, he began studying the strategies of his General and Commander, adapting them to his leadership style. It's only been two weeks since that first battle, but Rewind is already looking forward to the next one.

"Skill is a lot of things, so there is no perfectly skilled person in the galaxy. There's always something that someone excels in, and something someone is lacking."

Clone Number: CS-7546

Military Rank: Sergeant

Nickname: Rocker

Appearance: Rocker wears Phase 1 Clone Trooper Armor decorated in the 117th Gold Coloring. He has the standard helmet, arm, and leg decoration. He also bears an insignia based off of an IG-227 Hailfire-Class Tank Droid on each shoulder pad, showing his position as a member of Hailfire Squad. He has a single holster on his right side to hold a DC-17 Blaster Pistol, and has a Bullseye on his left chest plate, showing that he excels as a sniper. He also has a stripe running down the right front side of his helmet, the same side that his aiming eye is. He occasionally wears a Clone Jetpack to help him reach effective sniper positions on the battlefield.

Personality: He's not your typical lone wolf silent sniper. He wouldn't care if he was in the middle of a battle or nestled somewhere up on a distant mountain, he'll get his target one way or another. Although trained in close quarters combat, he prefers to be elevated, always having an advantage over the enemy. He doesn't toy with his enemies, though. If they need to go down, they'll go down. Simple as that. Off duty, he's an all around great guy to be pals with. Usually calm and relaxed, he rarely gets into fights with other people or clones that he doesn't need to.

Equipment/Weaponry:

• DC-15s Blaster
• DC-15x Sniper Rifle
• DC-17 Blaster Pistol
• Thermal Detonator (x2)
• EMP Grenade (x2)
• Clone Jetpack
• Long Range/Night Vision Visor

Backstory: Rocker is one of only six troopers under CC-7501 Commander Bronze's command during the battle of Geonosis that managed to survive for the duration. After their formation into the 117th Attack Battalion, Bronze brought together him and the other five survivors of Geonosis and formed Hailfire Squad, a soon to be elite squad made up of the best troopers Bronze had. Rocker was established as the designated NCO for Hailfire Squad, with Bronze himself being the squad's direct CO.

Even though he was now the leader of Hailfire Squad, this didn't mean they would always be together. More often than not, Rocker would leave Hailfire to their own devices and set up above the action. This suited the squad just fine, they could handle themselves perfectly well. Rocker didn't have a problem with it, neither did the squad. Bronze was skeptical of this method, until one day he was saved from a droid sniper because of Rocker's decision to do this. He never questioned it again.

Rocker remains to this day one of Bronze's most trusted troopers, even if he's not as high ranked as CC-7011 Captain Rigger. To Bronze, rank doesn't matter as long as the job gets done. Rocker agrees with this line of thinking, and doesn't very much care to be placed in a higher position. Many times he has rejected promotions given to him by other officers, and at this point, they've stopped trying. In his down time you can often find him down in the training hall, keeping his aim sharp for the next mission. Otherwise he'll be with the rest of his brothers, enjoying the peace and quiet before the next battle.
