[OOC] Star Wars: For a Few Credits More

[Asura]

For the Stormtrooper Corp, yeah. But prior to 0 BBY, the 501st was specifically comprised of Fett Clones only. Meaning that after 19 years, the clone were still in good enough physical shape to serve as Vader's elite death squad.

Where are you getting this from? I admit this isn't my era of preference but as far as I know the clones were a rarity, I know in NuCanon the truth but lets not go there until Episode 7 is out :L

ith the inclusion of a pool of clones from different templates and birth-born recruits, while others were not clones, but humans from an Imperial academy; by 0 BBY though Vader was known to comb through the ranks of all stormtrooper units and transferring the very best to the 501st,

Doesn't mention clones in 0BBY just the fact that Vader was combing through for the best of the best. He could very well have some Clone Officers but I doubt much more than that.

'Following the rise of the Galactic Empire, the 501st transitioned into a stormtrooper unit, like other clone units. Given new armor and weapons, the 501st faithfully served the Empire, operating under the direct command of the Sith Lord Darth Vader. After the Kamino uprising, the 501st became the last remnant of the Grand Army of the Republic fully composed of Jango Fett clones'

Two can play the quote game. :P

By 0 BBY, Vader began to comb through the ranks of other legions to pull non-fett clones into the 501st. Before then, it was a pure Fett clone legion.

Following the Kamino Uprising... we're YEARS after that, with the fact that we're closer to 0BBY I'd say the 501st will be on the verge off still got some clones but they don't make the majority anymore.

Will post tomorrow, before anyone claims it btw the Co-Pilot seat doesn't exist, a modified droid bracket resides there designed for chuckles.

Actually, a clone had children with a Twi'lek woman in The Clone Wars. Not sure about zabraks, but human x twi'lek is totally viable apparently.

Actually no, those were his stepchildren. Star Wars Essential Guide to Alien Species also states that Twi'Lek often have xenoeccentric relationships, and humans in particular are among species they cannot successfully mate with. Furthermore, as I previously stated, Clones are sterile, as shown in Karen Travis' 501st series. (That book has come up alot lately)[quote=Sep]

Wookiepedia says those kids are hybrid human/twi'leks though. So, even if the clones are sterile, humans and twi'leks can still boink and successfully bun the oven.

You can't rush perfection. :p

[knighthawk]

Dropped the ship, added a personality.

Name:
Mumbin Marsune
Species:
Gungan
Age:
35
Gender:
Male
Appearance:

Height:
2.2 meters
Weight:
60 Kg
Apparel:
When not in his usual leathers, he dons his work clothes of a climbsuit with all his tools for the job rigged to the harness. Since the suit uses a passive technology he can walk right through sensor sweeps without setting off an alarm, for his armor anyways.
Weaponry:
He carries two matching standard blasters with twin hold outs but only claims one. If he knows he is in a 'poodoo passing the propeller' situation, he bring his double set of Duo-blaster carbine with all intent of being the last one breathing. One might think that with the constant duplicate arms that he is a two weapon fighter,in truth he really hates to reload in the middle of a fight. He keeps constant pressure on with suppression fire from the hold out while grabbing the next weapon in line.
If he is ever forced into melee, he slips on a pair of medical shockers to stop hearts with a punch by not using both to make the circuit needed to save a life. Being a gungan, he still has ties to his warrior ways but blends reliable tools with modern technology by flinging grenades made the same size as the booma ball. He prefers stun grenades and ion explosives to drop targets without damaging property or salvageable equipment from the fallen.
Equipment:
Medical kit, Grappling spike launcher, Security kit, blaster repair kit.
His personal starfighter was a relic from nearly thirty years ago and he did his best to keep it up to par with what money he could spare. What was once the elite of royal defenders was now a common technology simply in a delightful package that he had plated in an azure tint of metallic blue with matte green. He had a dedicated droid that he saved from critical systems failure by slaving it permanently to the onboard system. He has sold this off years ago and has made it a personal goal to buy his ship back from that Tattooine Toydarian.
As a personal effect, he tries to color all his possessions with cobalt blue and matte green.
Personality:
A drunken lout that has trouble turning down a bottle. He used to be an up and comer but now he's a washout putting himself through the ringer to be an up and comer the second time around. He has a permanent disdain for humans and an outright hatred for the emperor for the genocide of his people. One day he hopes to do enough to stand before the emperor and put a hole through the wrinkled bastards head.
Skills:
-Starfreighter pilot. He can troop transport most things from A to B without complication, but if things get hot then get a specialist in the seat.
-Starfighter combatant. This is far more his comfort zone, he cuts through the sky like he swims in the water.
-short-range to mid-range combat. While he can use melee or longrifles as needed, these are skills kept to survive but not his focus compared to pistol and atl-atl grenades.
-Mobility. Being a gungan, he is already a swimmer that could compete with some of the best in the worlds and able to hold their breath for nearly a half hour. Those powerful muscles, while seemingly uncoordinated on land by walking and running standards, can still leap and climb with a daily trained skill to get him into places and positions most others either don't consider in the heat of battle or need equipment to obtain the same location.
-Medic, he can patch himself and others up as needed.
Flaws:
-Memorable. Gungans are a rare sight off of nabo, as such he is fairly easy to track on security and word of mouth.
-Alcoholic. Bottle for breakfast, bottle for lunch and a sensible dinner to keep his rations reserved.
-Arachnophobia. Wound up in a webweaver's nest on kashyyk, he saw the dripping fangs of a hundred burst babies crawling up him before he finally managed to free himself.
Bio:
He was a child during the battle of Naboo, but the loss of gungan lives including both of his folks was kept in song for the next generation, his generation. He was raised in a military academy for those like him, for years he was another warrior in the making like all the others until the rise of palpatine to power. Gungans were swiftly made into an endangered species overnight as they were wiped from galactic memory. He was part of a group who broke into the palace for their starships and cut through the blockade. Now they were free, now they were alone.
They started as an all gungan merc-group, but one by one they fell away or added on a mate until it no longer resembled what it once was. He fell away too, after an incident on the wookiee world, he crawled into a bottle for about a year and slept in his starship to save rent for booze. Finally he hit bottom and had the moment of clarity when he sold his starship for almost nothing just to have another drink, he was still drinking over a bottle a day but he knew he had to do something more so he got back into the game if nothing more than to afford his habit and crawled his way back up the ladder one rung at a time until he stood shoulder to shoulder with mandalorians.

Im not sure wookiepedia counts as an accurate source of information... but I'll leave the topic there as neither of our sources are considered canon anymore.

And she definitely beleived in Corellian Whiskey

Good thing he hid the good stuff.

Also when randomly bringing up things like "Zeltron livers" can you possibly ask? I can't see Corran using them himself so they typically wouldn't be aboard.

Ah. I did make a mistake there. Wasnt meant to be stashed aboard your ship. easy to forget where I hide the things...

[edit] This edit is to inform you that an edit was made in reference to the quote and statement made in the post i am currently editing due to me feeling the need that an edit was needed immediately to the post this edit is referencing in order to avoid further confusion about the lack of an edit this edit discusses, and to avoid the need for further edits after the referenced edit was made in order to maintain continuity among posts, i.e. the inclusion of further edits to rectify the lack of edit and the accomadation for the new edit by means of further edits.

Corellian Brandy and Corellian Whiskey will be aboard though, as the same for some ales and what not.

But he'll have the best stuff in his room... what will be locked.

Gonna work on a post later, play some games. Throw up the bit of the collab piratepad deleted and then post here.
