The Nameless Grunts - Story of the 67th Legion



GM's:
Roran Hawkins - Fox

Introduction:
This roleplay situated in the rich and vivid universe of star wars will tell you an entirely new story. Instead of the large scale wars and plots going on around the universe, this roleplay will be a microstoria, a look from the inside out. This roleplay will tell you the lives of the grunts that keep the engine rolling, the nameless and faceless soldiers that carried the clone wars. The clone troopers.

Rules:
  • The GM's words are final.

  • Be kind and respectful to your fellow roleplayers.

  • Be aware that you can die in this RP. You do have a say in this, but be wary of the limits of the universe.

  • Powerplaying and otherwise breaking physics will be rewarded with death.


  • Infromation:
    Nice, you carried on untill here, and didn't run away crying yet. You are the material we need. In this roleplay we will follow the adventurous and dangerous story of one squad of clones during the clone wars and beyond. Now, more specifically.

    We are the 1st Squad of the 1st Platoon of the 1st Company of the 1st Battalion of the 3rd Regiment of the 67th Legion of clone troopers. Yes, that's a long title. We are the best soldiers one can find in the 3rd Regiment of the 67th Legion, and as a result will serve directly under the 3rd Regiment's clone commander and a jedi padawan.

    The 67th legion of clone troopers is unlike most other legions not bound to an army group, but a reserve legion. It is sent all across the galaxy to reinforce an existing army group where necessary. Due this specific role it has become highly specialized in the tasks it should perform. The 67th Legion is a pure offensive force. It's troopers have received partial ARC training, especially very intensive close combat training, and are a very cohesive and inventive unit. They charge into the enemy lines with an arsenal of mostly infantry with airsupport and some limited armour and artillery. They are also trained at holding any newly captured territoy with a determination that rivals those of boulders, and are relentless counter-attackers should they lose any territory.

    The 67th legion's troopers are different from most clone troopers trained at Kamino. Just like the 501st they have been given a slower aging rate to ensure that the ample veterans will be a strong pillar to build upon for later battles. They also received a partial ARC trooper training, meaning that these clones are more individual and unique. As a result they are more creative and inventive and will function efficiently in a situation of chaos and a lack of orders. That what makes the 67th stand out amongst other clones is their close combat prowess. Even the ARC troopers are reluctant to fight them in melee range.

    The 67th legion's soldiers wear the normal clone body armour, phase I and II as time progresses, and have green markings on their armour. They will adopt camouflaged armour when the situation demands it, and have a different arsenal of weaponry compared to other legions. The 67th in an agressive and mobile legion. It will brutally attack the enemy and abuse any weak spot through lightning quick and focussed attacks. As a result the legion is mostly built up of normal infantry with specialists divided amongst the squads to improve their flexibility. Their arsenal is composed of a relatively small array of vehicles, the main ones being the LAAT/i gunships, capable of dishing out lots of damage, aswell as taking it. The AT-RT walkers operate as fast and well-armed packs, while the heavy AT-TE's can bear the brunt of spearheading an operation. The 67th legion also posesses a limited amount of AV7 artillery guns. Every vehicle and soldier used by the 67th is able to be airdropped by the 'Larties' or LAAT/i gunships, which is the key to their mobility.

    Here you will find useful links concerning the organisation of legions and the different weapons and vehicles used. Here you can also find anything you might want to know about the universe.



    How to join:
    Basically you post your CS in the OOC thread and I will give it a quick glance before accepting you into the legion or executing you for your heinous crimes. I mean, potatoes.

    Naming code: CT-1378
    Rank: Sergeant
    Callname: Falcon
    Appearance:
    Falcon has your average clone's looks with a little bit of a personal touch. He keeps his hair in a clean and short hairdo complemented by a beard and moustache around his mouth.

    His armour is adorned with green stripes like the rest of the legion and has some battle damage here and there. More remarkable are the Jaig eyes on his helmet that give him a somewhat fierce and intimidating look.

    Personality:
    Falcon is a strange person. He's a proud individual and is renowned for his unorthodoxy while at the same time he wants his troops to be in perfect order. This strange desire for both order and chaos at the same time make him somewhat unpredictable at times, but that is only an advantage in the sight of the enemy. In general, he's rather friendly though, and welcomes new replacements heartily, but with a little bit of reserve and cynicism.
    History: After being cloned he spent 10 long years growing into an adult and training to become a perfect soldier.
    Equipment: CT-1378 usually carries his DC-15A blaster rifle into battle, since he values its accuracy and penetrating power over the compacter and lighter DC-15A. Apart from that he also carries two EMP grenades for sticky situations.

    Naming code:CT-5186
    Rank: Private
    Callname: SLAG
    Appearance: He grows out the back half of his hair but keeps it tightly heald back in a militant bun, This was a trair he developed from members of the Weequa
    Personality: He'd be lying if he didn't live up to his namesake, he loves the carnage of a sea of clankers still standing with all their tops popped off. During his studies of alien species, He came upon the Weequay, their faith for some reason resonated with him and he found some strange comfort in studying them.
    History:
    Equipment: (Anything special that your trooper carries apart from the standard equipment. Standard equipment is 4 thermal detonators, a DC-15S blaster and a DC-15A rifle and a combat knife. This also determines his role. Max 1 sniper and anti-vehicle trooper per squad.)
    Z-6 rotary blaster with a remote droid recharger set in the middle of the rotor for space saving and a docked ion blaster as well.
    He also carries a Marksman-H combat remote he calls 'Quay' for the moon god. He has replaced all of the non lethal blasters with ion pistols so that he can let it loose to float behind droids who would ignore it and then open fire at all inorganic targets without harming anyone else who got caught by a stray bolt.

    While I don't really see him have an opportunity to study alien species, but we can say that was a part of their fast-learning curve, and that he was attracted to it, and during deployment did his iown research. Please expand a bit on the modifications of the Z-6 rotary blaster. You added an ion blaster on it and a autmated recharger that will replace power packs when required?

    Otherwise, accepted.

    I like him, accepted. Be aware though that we start the RP at Geonosis and basically all personality will be 'earned' from there on. Since there basically is NO operational history to look back to you can act as if there was when making the CS though to make writing the personality easier.

    Naming Code

    CT-1512


    Rank

    Private


    Callname

    Fox


    Appearance

    Fox´s bears great resemblance to most of his brothers, but his yellow eyes are standing out from the crowd immediately. He also has a tribal tattoo on his chin - four lines that closely a scratch from a Felucian Fox. Also setting him apart are his coal black, short unkempt hair.


    His armor is a standard Phase I armor with few custom features to set him apart. He installed a rangefinder on his helmet to help him in aiming his weapon. On his right shoulders, he wears an additional shoulder guard that has several uses - defensive or offensive. The most noteworthy element of his armor is the kama he wears. He has the symbol of the claw of a Felucian Fox on his chest.


    Personality

    Fox is proud to be a clone and he makes no attempt to hide it. He takes great pride to belong to the 67th Legion with his brothers, and is very confident in the capabilities of the unit he is fighting in. He believes that teamwork is the best means of achieving success even against overwhelming odds and thus, he places great trust in his comrades, and expects the same trust from the other end as well. Fox greatly values friendship, and thinks about the rest of his squad as his family. While is a logical thinker and always tries to apply a logical approach to a problem at hand, but sometimes, he places logic aside in favor of more brutal, straightforward tactics.


    History

    After being clone on the planet of Kamino in Tipoca City, he spent the first ten years of his life training with his brothers, his future squad. He received extra training with the DC-15 blaster rifle.


    Equipment

    CT-1512 carries the DC-15A blaster rifle as his weapon of choice, mainly for its range and superior firepower over the droid blasters. Aside the regular grenades, he carries two extra tibanna gas cartridges and charge packs for his DC-15A. He also carries two bacta patches and two salves for emergencies.


    " Have you ever encountered a Felucian fox? Me neither. That´s why we are alive, having this conversation."

    Accepted apart from being taller than other clones. We're clones. Identical people with maybe small differences. Eye colour, sure, hair colour, sure (is it dyed? Noone'll ever know!) but lenght? All clone trooper armours are the same size specifically for that reason that they're clones and the same size. :D

    Sorry I'll explain. Slag found a training remote either on a mission or just as part of his clone trooper training, he kept it as his own and began to tinker with it between missions, replacing each blaster with an ion gun and change the targeting parameters to inorganic hostile. Then, later, he installed a recharging dock for the remote into the rotor cycle of the z-6 so it can be slaved to fire its ion shot at the same time he's opening fire on the enemy say 1 ion shot per second while the z-6 is belting out 10 per second or faster. It can either bleed off some energy from every shot to recharge the remote (say 1% to 0.1% per shot sent to the remote, recharging it after every 100-1000 rounds fired) or else the rotor can turn a turbine of simple copper wire and magnets to generate electricity to charge the remote.
