Thirty-Six :: Human (Clone) :: Empire :: Lieutenant (Stormtrooper Corps) :: 117th Legion
Currently on: Coruscant


Character Background:


Trask is the result of one of the final cloning operations conducted by the Empire. The concept was to create a tight knit platoon of Stormtroopers capable of working well together. The batch was cloned and raised from children to adulthood. No growth accelerators or physical augmentations were used. The clones were trained at the Stormtrooper Academy on Caridan where they excelled; performing better than non-clone units due to their combat coordination which was credited to growing up together. The Special Operations Brigade, a Clone Wars Special Forces unit from the days of the Republic, was resurrected for the unit.
The SO:BDE lead many successful special operations throughout the rise of the Empire and the subsequent Galactic Civil War. They were sent on dangerous missions and considered more expendable due to their clone nature. Over time casualties thinned the unit until it could no longer operate. The SO:BDE was disbanded and the survivors were separated into other areas of the Imperial War Machine.
Clone Soldier 211 took the name Jarvan Trask and become the very pinnacle of a good soldier. He was folded into the rest of the Stormtrooper Corps where he eventually rose to the rank of Lieutenant, and becoming responsible for a platoon all his own. He commands the Squadrons Cerberus, Rancor, Longsword, and Berzeker.
Jarvan has never had a real family and has lost the only one he had. He doesn't focus on his past and instead is intently focused on the future and his career within the military. He is fiercely loyal to the Empire and operates on a very noble personal code of conduct. He believes in fighting fair and with your whole being.


Raw Material:


The Special Operation Brigade was better known during it's prime as the Undead Legion. Fallen soldiers were only ever listed as MIA and never as KIA, giving the impression that they never died.
Jarvan frequently works hand in hand with the Imperial Knights. He also works with the Wayland Irregulars.
Some rumors say the SO:BDE was shut down to make way for a new group of augmented soldiers equipped with cutting edge armor: The Nightmares, an Imperial Inquisition program. Past members of the SO:BDE may have even been involved in the development of the Nightmare program.


Plot Ideas:


His past is open for exploration. He came from a unit shrouded in mystery and legend and is a clone with no real past. The subject of his fallen brothers could also be a sore subject to be brought up.
Any operation that needs boots on the ground can grab Trask to lead a ground assault.
Operations that put his loyalty to the Empire and his personal code into conflict. He has a strong sense of honor and what is right, which can conflict with the "evil" results at any costs approach of the Empire.


Existing Relationships:


Matatek Sel Vissica - The Imperial Knight has worked and fought alongside Jarvan.
Bette Davis - Jarvan has operated alongside this grumpy Shadow Squadron ace on several occasions. She's far from his favorite person but he likes her a damn lot better than Esalis.
Sheldon Esalis - If he wasn't a goddamn spook Jarvan wouldn't give this waste of oxygen a second glance. Sheldon has his uses but they are barely worth putting up with his personality.
