CC-1029

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

- Res after witnessing Tons death.

Res or CC-1029 was a Clone Commander. He was once part of a rescue mission to save the senator of Tophi, Sara Tontor, from the hands of a Nikto bounty hunter. Res later was sent to Ootoo IV with Jedi Master Doola Karnt, a Phui 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 Lightsaber Droids.

Rescue the Senator


Working as a basic Recon Clonetrooper, Res never saw much action, until he was chosen for a special assignment which aquired 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', and the two were assigned to lead the rescue. They soon found themselves in a seemingly one sided dogfight in the Hoth Astroid Field. Res's troops were using a Republic LAAT/i and Toone was using a heavily modified Z-95 starfighter. Even though the republic gunship was able to cripple the starfighter with a beam turret, the gunship was struck by an asteroid. Both ships crashed on Hoth. Toone and Sara both survived the Z-95s crash, but for Res's gunship only Res, Jock, and a clonetrooper named Ton survived. 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 ferocious Wampas. Toone was quick to be killed by the Wampas claws. Jock started to call Res and Ton for backup, but was killed before Res and Ton could arrive. When they arrived back at the camp, they discovered that it also had been raided by Wampas, and that the senator was barricaded behind ship wreckage trying to hold off the wampas using a blaster pistol. Res and Ton were quick to attack the wampas, even though Ton was quickly killed in the following fight. Soon Res and Sara where rescued by Republic gunships.

Mission to Ootoo
In 20 BBY, Res beame an official Clone Commander, and was soon assigned to a Phui Jedi Master named Doola Karnt. Like Yoda, 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 Doolas first assignment was to answer the call of the Ootoo IV viceroy, Chad Mong-Lo, who wished to end his nuetrality 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 Gishi 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 Rail Detonator, destroyed three STAPs, and one AAT. A Clonetrooper known as Mickey (CT-12/389) also took out the last AAT using thermal detonators and cluster grenades.



The group then fought their way to Chads 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 ysalimaris to make them force resistent. 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. 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 a Ootoo prison on Ootoo III, Doola was able to negotiate Chad's admission into the republic.

Behind the scenes
Many of the characters I thought up of I had already given names too a while ago. Res was a character that I had decided to do while reading some articles because I was bored. I knew right away I wanted a clone trooper, but I had no idea what I was going to use as a name or image. I decided to use clone troopers from the new series as an image, but I still did not have a name. So there I was, wacthin episodes on Carttoon Network.com, and then it hit me. I decided to change my screen resolution, and then I thought about the letters r-e-s in resolution. So then I decided this Clone troopers name to be Res ( pronounced 'Rez' ). The other clone, Jock, I named after the Indiana Jones character. So there you have it, Res and Jock, my first two Fan Clones.
