Name: James Alexander Tratius (Colonel)

Age: 30

Specialties: Naval and Land Battle Strategy, Long Range Weaponry(Blaster Rifles, Sniper Rifles), and CQC(Including H2H)

Short Background:

Born to a wealthy family on Coruscant, James Alexander disturbed his parents at a young age. While Most boys in his school and neighborhood were playing Cops and Robbers, He was playing War with pieces of Concrete and other materials lying around.

After a few years, the young boy seemed to outgrow his facination of Warfare until the age of 16, when his parents caught him watching a Holonet program on the Great Territorial War and writing down battleplans used by the Republic Remnant and the Jedi. The boy's parents immediately searched his room and destroyed everything to do with War and violence. This act against his privacy and passion provoked James Alexander to run away from home, where he spent the next 2 years of his life on the Run, training himself in the ways of Warfare, including Strategy, Hand to Hand Combat, Close Quarters Combat, and Marksmanship.

Acting on orders from the Dark Lord of the Sith, Sith Acolyte Feris Kai murdered Wac Creedo's father in cold-blood and destroyed the fuel depot altogether. When Wac got news of what had happened to his gentle Rodian father, he ran off to join the Republic to pay respects to his deceased father.

Name: Tarn Naretha (Commando)

Age:28

Special abilities: Shapeshifting, acting (non-professional, used only for reconnaissance), minor natural telepathy, natural psychometry (limited to sentients), minor talents in blocking mind probing

Short Background

Tarn was abandoned at the age of four by his parents, a custom now common among Pureblood Shapeshifters (info on Shapeshifters: http://swfanon.wikia.com/wiki/Shapeshifter , http://swfanon.wikia.com/wiki/Kowak_V). To satisfy his baser bloodlust desires, he often randomly committed homicide. However, when he was seven years of age, he was captured by Republic Intelligence and kept under lock and key. They placed within his brain an extremely small data transmitter that would allow them to monitor his movements wherever he went. Using the threat of capturing him again for study, something he naturally feared, as blackmail, they forced him to work as a top secret Republic commando in Intelligence. They chose this spot for him not only because he would be utterly perfect at the job, but, upon discovering his baser desires, something that became obvious soon, they would be supplying him with targets to kill constantly, from terrorists to key enemy agents. Though he was pleased that he would be supplied with a constant stream of bodies, he hated desperately being monitored and blackmailed; controlled by beings he considered far inferior.

After some training, he was able to effectively keep Force-sensitives from probing his mind for clues as to his identity, as well as communicate wirelessly with the several high-ranking Jedi* via telepathy, eradicating the need for wires or bugs. These Jedi were of a hand-picked few that were allowed to know of his race. These same Jedi also nurtured his race’s natural talent in psychometry to probe the minds of others for information, which came in handy if he was impersonating someone and a person that knew the unfortunate victim spoke to him, he could talk and know about things he’d never been through with a fairly high degree of accuracy. Despite these new abilities, he hated being pinned down, and worked to break free whenever he could, though these attempts always failed, infuriating him. When the war started, his use went up to extremely high levels, to where he was used as a secret bodyguard for highly important people, to discover the loyalties of those suspected of treason, and myriads of other jobs. However, if anyone else was around not meant to be killed he could not use his true powers, which severely lessened his chances of survival, avoiding injury, and his kills rate. The fact also infuriated him.

Basically, he will do anything anyone 'in charge' tells him to do (as they do not have to be aware of his race to know he's a commando), albeit begrudgingly. The requested rank is Commando.

*These Jedi are to be chosen by the faction leader. The others who know of him can also be chosen, but this is optional.

Solus, don't use that shapeshifting ability often.

I can't. I can't get him alone often, and I'm sorry about not mentioning the rank properly. Thanks for straightening that out.

You don't mention the rank unless you request one. I'm the one who assigns ranks.

I wasn't aware of that, I just tried to do what everyone else looked like they were doing. Thanks for clearing that up for me. I'm new to this highly organized kind of RPing, though I must say that I like it.
