CC-1029

"Ton! Aw Hell, these wampas are tough stuff!!"

- Res after witnessing Ton's death.

CC-1029, nicknamed Res, was a in the Grand Army of the Republic. He was once part of a rescue mission to save the senator of Tophi, Sara Tontor, from the hands of a bounty hunter. Res later was sent to Ootoo IV with Doola Karnt, a  Jedi in order to admit the Ootoo viceroy into the republic, but instead were ambushed. At Ootoo, Res and Doola were the first of the Republic to discover the new CIS B4 saber battle droids. Later he crashed landed on the planet of with the Jedi Master Doola Karnt and helped begin a campaign to free Krant from CIS rule. The campaign was cut short though by Order 66. Res however refused to follow the order, and let Doola go, even though the Rest of his squad did try to kill Doola. Res then became a high ranked Imperial soldier until he resigned his position and retired after the.

Rescue the Senator


Working as a basic recon clone trooper, Res never saw much action, mainly because of his excessive quirk of not always obeying orders, until he was chosen for a special assignment, because of bravery on, which required him to help rescue the senator of Tophi, Sara Tontor, who had been recently abducted by a bounty hunter named Chib Toone. For the mission, Res was paired up with an ARC trooper known as 'Jock', who helped win the campaign on, and the two were assigned to lead the rescue. Taking a Republic LAAT/i gunship, they traveled to the planet of, whose spaceports carried information on Toone's last dock there for fuel. As if on cue, Toone's Z-95 Headhunter Fighter zoomed in and landed in a nearbye dock. As Jock took some clone troopers to try and capture Toone, Res explored the nearbye city. Soon, Toone's fighter could be seen lifting off, and Res ran for the gunship. Jock was already there and ready to take off. Soon, the gunship lifted from the hanger and gave chase. They soon found themselves in a seemingly one sided dogfight in the Hoth asteroid field. It was a slow moving Republic  gunship versus a heavily modified. Toone scored multiple hits on the gunships wings and hull, and took out most of the gunships weopans, except for one of the un-manned beam turrets located on the left wing. The turret was able to destroy one of Toone's wings and sent him spiraling towards 's icy surface. Res' gunship also crashed on Hoth because of severe damage. It hit the ground right next to Toone's starfighter. Res soon found out that both Toone and Tontor had survived the crash. As for Res' eight soldiers who survived Toone on Anoat, they were all dead, except for a clone trooper known by the name of Ton. Jock also had survived the crash.

Now, trapped on the Ice planet of Hoth, the group was forced to work together in order to survive. After salvaging a communication device out of the gunship, Res attempted to send a rescue call. Jock and Toone decided to go hunt for food, however they were soon attacked by s. Toone was quick to be killed by the wampa's claws. Jock started to call Res and Ton for backup, but was killed by a wampa before Res and Ton could arrive. When Res and Ton did arrive, all that they found were two bodies mauled by wampas. When they arrived back at the camp, they discovered that the camp also had been raided by wampas, and that the senator was barricaded behind ship wreckage trying to hold off some still present wampas using a blaster pistol. Res and Ton were quick to attack the wampas and win, even though Ton was quickly killed in the skirmish. Soon Res and Sara where rescued by Republic gunships that had answered Res' distress signal.

Mission to Ootoo
"This is new. Battle droids that wield lightsabers, and to think that I've seen it all."

- Res first seeing a B4 saber battle droid on Ootoo 4

In 20 BBY, Res became an official clone commander because of his success on Hoth, and was soon assigned to a Phuii Jedi Master named Doola Karnt. Like, size did not interfere with Doola's life, and in fact in her own mind she thought her small size was to her advantage. Res and Doola’s first assignment was to answer the call of the Ootoo IV viceroy, Chad Mong-Lo, who wished to end his neutrality and join the Republic. Moments before Res and Doola arrived however, CIS troops landed on Ootoo IV and forced Chad to join the CIS. The CIS commander, Lack Toler, a alien, soon learned of the soon to arrive Jedi and Republic troops, and started to set up an ambush for them. As the Republic Gunships entered the atmosphere, they were bombarded by CIS guns and were forced to land. After landing, the surviving troops had to evade tanks. Doola quickly destroyed two AATs, and Res, using a Merr-Sonn, destroyed three STAPs, and one AAT. A clonetrooper designated as CT-12/389 also took out the last AAT using thermal detonators and cluster grenades. The troopers nickname was Mickey.



The group then fought their way to Chad’s palace where they could find Toler. When they met up with him in Chad's throne room, Toler introduced a new droid prototype which he called a B4 saber battle droid, a type of lightsaber wielding battle droid, who also carried the preserved blood of s to make them resistant to. Toler sent the first two available prototypes against Doola, and sent a wave of both B2 super battle droids and grapple droids against Res and the other clone troopers. Res' clones defeated the droids, but only Res was left after the droid fight. Seeing that Doola had already disabled one saber droid, she was having some troubles with the second one. Sneaking up behind it, Res shot the second saber droid, and then cornered Toler. After sending Toler to an Ootoo prison on Ootoo III, Doola was able to negotiate Chad's admission into the Republic.

Battle of Krant
In the final year of the Clone Wars (19 BBY) the republic star ship Braveheart was ambushed by CIS cruisers while flying near the planet of. Aboard the transport were Jedi General Doola Karnt, Commander Res, and over 600 clonetroopers. The Braveheart was out gunned by the CIS cruisers, and was forced to land on Krant. After landing, Res, Doola, and at least 153 clonetroopers were able to escape the ship before the Braveheart was destroyed by the overhead cruisers. As the survivors were setting up camp in a remote forest, they were attacked by a squad of Droid Commandos. Only 120 clones, including Res, and the Jedi survived the encounter. Later, Doola took Res, Topps, Spitfire, and Charliepop with her to scout out the surrounding territory.

They eventually came upon a small town which pleaded for the Jedi to free their planet. Unable to call for reinforcements, Doola and Res were forced to make do with what they had. The small army split into two groups, one group being led by Res, and the other led by Doola. Res's force attacked the main CIS stronghold head on, in order to where them down and make it easy for Doola's force to strike from behind. The plan was a success, as the CIS troops were crushed from two directions. The fight for the planet though wasn't over yet. Small bases were set up around Krant here and there, and Doola promised the Krantians that she would completely free the planet.

While scouting a cliff area however, Res and Topps received from Emperor Palpatine. Res, as always, questioned the order, but Topps ordered the troops to fire. Doola knocked Res to the ground, cutting his talk with Palpatine, and then killed the remaining sixty-seven clone troopers. Doola then pointed her blade at Res's neck. Res however, informed Doola that he had already questioned the order, and was not about to commit it. Doola sensed the sincerity in the statement and switched off her blade. Res then told Doola what exactly Order 66 was. He then promised that his report to Palpatine would lie about the fact that she was killed, and that he would let her go. Res then traveled to Kamino to live the life of an Imperial Servant, and Doola went to live in exile on Tatooine.



Personality and traits
Res was known to have a 'shoot first and ask questions Later' personality. He was also known to often question his orders and superiors. As a recon trooper, he was more stealthy than the others in his legion and was also better at keeping a low profile. He was however not the best shot with rifle weapons or other heavy weapons, but instead was more accurate with the DC-15s sidearm blaster and a modified DL-22 blaster pistol which he had somehow acquired through the Coruscanti underworld black market. Res was also rumored to have what many Clones considered to be something called "Jango's Luck", which was the reason behind Res always being the only surviving clone of missions that he had took part in. However it was because of this that most clones feared having to work with him, believing that once again, Res will be the only survivor. Having "Jango's Luck" however could also prove to be a bad thing, since Jango's head was decapitated on. It is believed that Res' head will also someday be decapitated by a lightsaber.

Equipment and armor
During Res's phase I armor years, his armor resembled the armor of fellow clone commander. His snow trooper uniform however was standard. His early recon trooper uniform also had some customizations too it such as a and shoulder pauldron. Also as a Recon Trooper he used various weapons for various jobs such as sniper rifles and rocket launchers, even though he wasn't very good with either of these weapons. As a clone commander his armament was made up of a DC-15s blaster sidearm and a modified DL-22 Blastech blaster pistol. His Phase 2 armor also resembled Bly's, except for the pauldron, kama, and helmet view finder. Res's Phase 3 stormtrooper armor was customized with a yellow command pauldron.

Behind the scenes
Res (pronounced 'Rez') is largely based off Commander Bly, Dreviss and Fordo in appearance. The name Res itself is based off the word 'resolution' or 'resolve'. The idea of a rebellious clone just plainly popped into the author's head in order to make a storyline. Res was the author's first 'Fan Clone'.
