Description and personality:

Lieutenant Maya Fleet is a 19-year-old2 female human Fringer, and a member of the Green Squadron of the Outer Division of the Taina Sector Militia3. She is 5'4" tall and 120 lbs, with brown eyes. Her hair, cut to chin length, is dark brown, almost black, at the roots. Following the unofficial custom among hairy species of the Outer Taina Militia's fighter squadrons, she has dyed her hair green. Maya typically wears clothing that is flashy but functional, and wears some jewelry but very little makeup. She carries a heavy blaster in a belt holster, as well as a small toolkit and a large knife (the type you would wear in the woods, not in the 'hood). She is outgoing, adventurous, idealistic, and loyal to the Republic. She is not contemplative or scholarly. She is an impulsive, instinctive fighter who sometimes seems to be able to target enemies before she could possibly see them.

Home world and history up to and including the Clone Wars:

Ythro (52-year-old male Fringer/Tech Specialist) and Madri (50-year-old female Fringer) Fleet ran a small but successful business selling, renting, and repairing heavy-duty speeder bikes in the outskirts of Port City on the forested world of Rheltooine. Rheltooine, an Unaffiliated World located towards the Outer Rim away from Solarius, is a small colony settled some 200 years ago from Taina itself. Rheltooine's forests provide everything that its small number of colonists need for simple survival - lumber, game, fruits and vegetables, medicinal herbs, even raw material for clothing. However, the colonists must trade for technological goods as well as their scarce luxury items. Fortunately, there is a market among the wealthy nobility of the Taina sector for Rheltooine's distinctive lumber, unusual medical herbs, and werrik pelts and meat. The heavy-duty speeder bike, capable of traversing great distance, yet able to navigate narrow trails, is the preferred method of transportation for the herbalists, hunters, and trappers of Rheltooine, allowing them to rotate their territories often and to avoid depleting the resources of a given area.

Maya Fleet is the fourth child of Ythro and Madri. A routine blood test indicated a high Midichlorian count, high enough to recommend contacting the Jedi temple on Coruscant. Instead, over the next six years Ythro made sure to bring Maya with him on service calls deep within the forest on the rare occasions when a Jedi ship was in port. Once the danger was past, Maya was raised as a typical child living in a small city on a rural world.

In the years leading up to the Clone Wars, the Trade Federation blockaded many Mid Rim worlds, including Rheltooine. Thanks to the abundant forests, the colonists on Rheltooine were in little danger of starvation or malnutrition. However, certain colonists were affected more than others. Fleet Speederbikes did not QUITE go out of business, but without the ability to import parts and electronics, the "sale" part of the business quickly dried up, the "rental" soon followed, leaving only the "repair" part. With the poor reliability of the jury-rigged repairs that Ythro was forced to make, some customers chose to rely upon pack animals rather than speeder bikes, further harming business. The dispute was resolved before the Fleets went out of business, but it left Maya and her siblings with little sympathy for the Separatists and their allies the Trade Federation.

When the Clone War broke out, Maya's older siblings immediately volunteered for the Taina Sector Militia, fighting on the side of the Republic. Two years later, at the age of 18, Maya joined them, serving in the Green Squadron of the Outer Division of the Taina Sector Militia. Beginning as a mechanic, she became a pilot as soon as she demonstrated sufficient ability with a fighter craft.

Family, friends, allies, and associates:

Captain Artemis Fleet5 is a 26-year-old female human Fringer, and the captain of the Green Squadron of the Outer Division of the Taina Sector Militia. She is 5'6" tall and 130 lbs, with brown eyes. Her hair is short and spiky, and dyed green (a tradition of the Taina fighter squadrons). She also wears a lot of makeup and jewelry, usually including heavy black eyeliner and clunky, native Aresian bead work. Her clothing is flashy but functional. She carries a heavy blaster in a belt holster, a holdout blaster in a boot top, and a small toolkit. Artemis is outgoing, adventurous, and somewhat idealistic, although a little more cynical than her younger sister Maya. She is a sound strategist as well as a daring pilot, and has led Green Squadron to many victories. Her duties as captain often bring her into contact with soldiers in other branches of the militia, as well as its civilian leadership and the small contingent of Jedi stationed in this region of the Taina sector. Unfortunately, Artemis has recently had to delegate some early-morning missions due to illness...

Captain Ilarri Fleet is a 24-year-old female human Fringer/Soldier. She is 5'8" tall and 150 lbs. She has brown eyes and long, dark brown, almost black, hair, worn in an off-the-shoulder style while on duty. Her clothing is loose-fitting and often in camoflauge-like colors even off duty, and she wears very little makeup or jewelry. Off-duty, she carries a heavy blaster in a belt holster, as well as a large knife (the type you would wear in the woods, not in the 'hood). While on duty, she adds a blaster rifle, as well as several grenades and a survival kit. Although she is as innovative and daring on the ground as her siblings are in space, Ilarri is more serious and thoughtful than they are, allowing her a more balanced perspective on the war between the Separatists and the Republic, as well as the machinations of the Senate, the Supreme Chancellor, and the Jedi Order. She is particularly suspicious of the Supreme Chancellor's motivations (although she has no idea that he is actually involved with the Separatists).

Lieutenant1 Eldin Fleet is a 21-year-old male human Fringer/Tech Specialist. He is 5'7" tall and 140 lbs. He has brown eyes and dark brown, almost black hair, which is cut a little too infrequently to be neat. His clothing is quite functional, with little regard for fashion. His standard-issue blaster, on which he has made numerous, unauthorized modifications, is carried in a belt holster, and he has stowed an enormous array of tools and electronic parts in various pockets and pouches. He is clever and innovative; a technical maverick and a wizard at keeping the Green Squadron's ships functioning at peak efficiency despite the scarcity of equipment and parts in the often-blockaded Taina sector. Away from his ships he is often absent-minded and awkward, although he is not without charm.

Lieutenant (JG) Derrin Fleet is an 18-year-old male human Fringer. He is 5'10" tall and 160 lbs. He has brown eyes and short, medium brown hair, with a thick green streak dyed in the front. His clothing is flashy but functional. He carries 2 heavy blasters in belt holsters, as well as a large knife (the type you would wear in the woods, not in the 'hood), and a holdout blaster in a boot top. He is outgoing, adventurous, and loyal to the Republic, but a little reckless. He is new to the Green Squadron, but is already making a name for himself for daring and accuracy, although he is not as instinctive as his sister Maya.

Lieutenant Commander1 T'Larikaar, a 22-year-old male Aresian Scout, is Maya Fleet's wingman. He is 6'1" tall and 170 lbs. He has green eyes and gray fur, dyed green in a wide stripe from the top of his head down his back. He wears loosely fitting clothing and a traditional Aresian bead necklace. He carries a blaster in a belt holster and a small toolkit. On the ground, T'Larikaar is soft-spoken and even-tempered with a dry, understated sense of humor, and often reins in his more impetuous wingman. In the cockpit of his Z-95 Headhunter, however, he is as daring and reckless as any other fighter jock in Green Squadron.


Lord Endicon Tarheena IV is a 30-year-old male human Noble. He is an aide to the current senator of the Taina Sector, and acting as liason to the forces in the outer Taina region. It is well-known that he has political ambitions of his own...and is likely to be successful, given his family name and connections. He is 5'10" tall and 170 lbs. He has dark brown hair and blue eyes, and wears clothing that is richly tailored but functional, as well as a blaster in a belt holster made of the finest natural leather. Despite his married status, he is a popular topic of conversation among the female pilots in the militia squadrons (the captain of Green Squadron is uncharacteristically silent during these conversations, just sitting there with a small smile on her face; no doubt this is due to the professionalism required by her rank). Despite his lineage, Endicon gets along as well with the rough, unpolished elements of the outskirts of the Taina sector as he does with the Tainan nobility, and despite his ambition, he truly cares about the welfare of his people.

Enemy:

The fiercest fighting of the Clone Wars has occurred on the outskirts of the Republic. Sectors such as the Auril Sector, the Juvex sector, and the Taina Sector have borne the brunt of Trade Federation blockades and Separatist attacks. The lightly-populated worlds of these sectors are hard-pressed to provide enough soldiers and pilots to repel the Separatists. Core Worlds such as Coruscant, Corellia, and Sacorria have reinforced these Mid Rim sectors, bringing together people of diverse backgrounds to fight for a common goal.

In theory, that is. In fact, the rivalries between the Mid Rim and Core World forces have become legendary. The Core World forces, typically highly trained and strictly regimented, often look down on their Mid Rim allies as disorganized and haphazard amateurs. The Mid Rim forces, usually comprised of planetary or sector militia, tend to regard their Core World reinforcements as polished dandies who would not recognize initiative if it shot them in the ass.

Zack Bran Gen (24-year-old male human Noble) is a rising star in the Sacorrian Fighter Unit's 17th Squadron of the Republic Space Navy. He would be rising even more quickly if that jumped-up hick Maya Fleet didn't keep poaching his kills. To be fair, Bran Gen has poached a number of Fleet's kills as well. But a green-haired, Mid Rim barbarian like Fleet ought to know her place. Officially, both Captain Kai Nezzo (29-year-old male Duros Scout) of the 17th Squadron and Captain Artemis Fleet of the Green Squadron have condemned this practice of poaching a rival's kills as detrimental to the combined squadron's tactical effectiveness. In practice, Captains Nezzo and Fleet are among the worst offenders. So are Lieutenants Fleet and Bran Gen, and their wingmen T'Larikaar and Zillah Tarool (23-year-old female Twi'lek Scout).

Background:

Adigo was born as part of the second wave of clone troopers. For reasons that were unclear, he excelled in manners he was originally not designed for, and showed a penchant for planning and an affinity for bladed weapons that was not in his intended genetic makeup. He served during the clone wars and was promoted to Lieutenant for his quick mind and skill on the battlefield. Because he was such a valuable resource, he served directly underneath Jedi Master Yoda, and grew to immensely respect the diminutive master, who saved his life on one occasion. Master Yoda told him that he foresaw a future beyond that of a soldier in him, but never had a chance to elaborate. As the clone wars came to an end, he was placed in charge of a platoon.

Home:

Adigo has no home per se, having been born and raised on Kamino. He has spent his adult life as a soldier and has no permanent home.

Family/Friends:

Adigo feels a strong debt of honor to Jedi Master Yoda and has immense respect for the Order, whom he feels fought bravely in the war. It is also his goal to seek Master Yoda and learn more about his destiny.

Adigo found it very difficult to integrate with his fellow clones, who did not understand him at all—as a result, he has several enemies amongst his siblings.

Personality/Character:

Adigo is a rather confused clone—he knows he is different but does not understand why, having been genetically engineered. He thinks carefully and plans his actions. He does not speak without thinking first, everything is very premeditated, and he excels at planning, which is what led to his promotions.

Adigo is extremely loyal, and believes there are bonds beyond human (or clone) understanding. He believes that actions justify respect, not position or authority. He has been criticized for questioning authority and the chain of command.

Adigo’s quest for understanding about his place can sometimes get in the way of his better judgement—he feels that if Master Yoda saw a higher purpose for him than being a soldier, there is one, and his belief in his own destiny has alienated him from many other clone troopers.

Appearance:

Adigo stands very tall (about 6’5”—abnormally so for a clone trooper) with a lean but muscular build. He has black hair cropped short and currently goes clean-shaven. Adigo has a rather large scar extending from his shoulder to his chest acquired during a battle. He wears somewhat customized clone trooper armor but dislikes wearing a helmet, saying he prefers to keep his senses open. He is also oddly fond of black cloaks.
