CC-1452

"General Vesal!"

- Twenty greeting Master Jeden in the barracks.

CC-1452, also known as Twenty was a Clone trooper and a member of Nightingale Squad during the Clone Wars. Known for his brute strength, Twenty earned his name after he took down twenty of his fellow clones in a Kamino mess hall with just he bare hands. Despite this strength, Twenty was often very timid, and was often the most peaceful and diplomatic of the group.

Early career
Twenty was a very seclusive and nervous child, often worried that he would not be good enough to qualify as a soldier. This changed during a morning in the Clone's mess hall. Acidentally picking a fight with a group of Clones from another division, he at first backed down, but went on to floor all twenty of the men, earning his name. With this new-found confidence, Twenty got through the Clone trials and was partnered with Wraith, a Clone who was very confident and loved to fight. Despite the differences in personality, Wraith came to respect Twenty's pacifism, and the two became best friends.

First fighting on Geonosis during the start of the Clone Wars, Twenty was commended by the Supreme Chancellor himself after shielding three other troops from an explosion. While he was injured and put out of action, he was honoured for it, and Twenty soon became very popular amongst the other Clones for his sense of honour and loyalty to his fellow Clones.

Clone Wars
When the Clone Wars started, Twenty was put in to Nightingale Squad, a group of four Clones and Jedi Master Jeden Vesal. The group also included Wraith, a vibroblade wielder called Sting and their commander, a sniper called Phoenix. Tasked with helping the Jedi search for Jedi artifacts, the group did also fight in the war, conducting multiple operations behind enemy lines to weaken the CIS. Twenty was an expert in fist-fighting and using a long range blaster rifle, though he also owned a shotgun he was given by a Republic-supporting smuggler.

Personality and characteristics
Twenty was a pacifist, despite his strength and expertise in combat. He was also very nervous, and tended to doubt himself very often, forcing Wraith to boost his confidence. Despite his timid personality, Twenty was very loyal to his allies, whether they were Clones, Jedi or innocent civilians. Twenty was also very popular with other Clones outside of Nightingale Squad for his courage in battle, a courage he didn't have before the battle ever began.

Twenty was incredibly muscular, with broad shoulders and thick armour. He was often the heaviest of the group, as he would often carry supplies for the squad along with his weapons and thick armour. Like Wraith and Sting, he upgraded to Phase II armour, and both of his armour sets were painted crimson, although he admitted he painted it that because 'It was his favourite colour'.
