The Four Troopers of the Apocalypse was the unit name used when talking about four troopers in the 666th Legion. These troopers were CT-1945 'War', CT-476 'Death', CT-1346 'Disease' and CT-441 'Famine'.
History[]
Creation[]
The unit was created shortly after the First Battle of Geonosis, when the 666th was an as yet unproven Clone Legion. CT-1945 had, during the battle, shown his affinity for any and all weapons, saving the lives of his squadmates multiple times during the battle. CT-1346 and CT-441 had shown themselves to be excellent marksmen as well as being able to shut down droids easily via other methods. CT-476 had been saved by the Legion's Jedi General Urde Ra'akdoon, using his Dark Side Force power to save him from death when an explosion broke open his helmet and melted a part of his face.
Ra'akdoon realised their worth and got them together with a proposal. CT-1945, CT-1346 and CT-441 were offered a position as the Legion's elite unit and Ra'akdoon's bodyguard, whilst CT-476 felt indebted to Ra'akdoon for saving his life, requesting to join the squad. Ra'akdoon accepted the proposal and allowed him into the squad. He dubbed them the 'Four Troopers of the Apocalypse'.
Behind the scenes[]
- The name of this group of Clone troopers and each Clone trooper's nickname is based on the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
