RC-6017 Throttle

RC-6017 "Throttle" was a Clone Commando who served in the Clone Wars. Throttle mainly served in Clone Commando unit "Hel Squad," before being transferred to the new High Orbit Precision Entry Squad. 
He was mainly known as the Demolitions Expert of the squad, tinkering with machines and weaponry. He was also known as practically Suicidal, and a Drug-addict. He's the ultimate adrenaline junkie, as the only way to satiate his hopelessness of the war. 
== Pre-Geonosis ==
When first assigned RC-6017 served with "Saberjowl" Squad, named after a Kaminoan Rare Sea Creature. There he earned his nickname, "Throttle" After a Vehicle Training where he overclocked his speeder and blowing up part of a Simulation room with it.
"Sergeant 6009, your Demolitions, RC-6017 during the Vehicle Training managed to Overclock the Speeder's... Throttle, over standard Safety Precautions. What will you do with him?

== The Battle of Geonosis ==
Entry #046 of Throttle's "Book"
"The last thing we know, Kaminoan staff is running around, holograms of this dusty ass planet are flying all over around the Briefing for us. The first battle after our years of training, and apparently it's about rescuing a Jedi Distress call and a Droid Factory. Sarge (RC-6009 "Semper") Said we were taking a path through the Valley district of the Planet Via LAAT, taking up to a Vintage point in order to infiltrate an Anti Infantry Compound. As I'm writing this, we're up in the Venator's Ship deployment zone, waiting for our next turn in line for the Shooting Gallery."
Entry #047 of Throttle's "Book"
"Oh god... I'm trying to write this without expressing my feelings but, Semper, Dain, Carbine are all dead. I'll... do a... rundown. As soon as we flew through that Valley, our sights fell upon not just an Anti-Infantry Outpost, but a massive AA Cannon hooked up in the back of it. It shot a few rounds, blasting our wings off and hitting the Explosive Storage. We managed to land but, when we got into that outpost- some... lightsaber-wielding thing cut them down. Looked like a Dro- [LOG END]"

== Hel Squad ==
After the Battle, Throttle was assigned to another squad, nicknamed "Hel." They were then assigned to the Valkyrie Venator, Throttle finding himself pondering the mysteries of the ship he calls home.
=== Coruscant Peacekeeper ===
Early into the war, RC-6017 was Deployed during a stream of Terrorist bombings from the Black Sun Group. Throttle gained favor with the Police Department, and met other RC Squads, befriending a certain RC-8015 at the Department, getting a drink after.
=== Home, Sweet Bloody Home. ===
Later, Throttle goes on countless Operations with Hel Squad, from blowing up factories to fighting ancient sith relics. This part of the Clone Wars is what mainly he served most in, serving alongside the forces of the Valkyrie Venator. During this period on the Venator, Throttle often participated in the Black Market of the ship, purchasing Death Sticks from smugglers onboard.
== Solo Operator ==
=== Disbanding of Hope Squad II ===
During an operation gone wrong, the squad leader was accused of a Warcrime of killing civilians with a chemical bomb during an accident. The squad was dismantled, leaving the remaining three members to be sorted out into different units, Throttle being put into Hiatus until another squad could be found.
==== Hopeful Future ====
Throttle, while on reserve, met up with a well-suited man who promised him redeployment, and a offer to join a strange division known as the Space Hulk program, serving in it until the end of the Clone Wars.
== Out with a Bang ==
From an early age, Throttle knew about the enhanced aging during his research on the Kaminoan facilities. This caused his dream of 'going out with a bang' to satisfy himself and give him some closure.
This wish came to fruition in 20 BBY during the events of Order 66. While the Space Hulk program slowly evolved to fit the Empire's new ideals, Throttle was deployed alongside a unit of Clones to dispatch a Jedi fleeing from the Temple to the planet of Jakku. What proceeded to happen was a massacre, the Jedi using an AT-TE to wreck the squadron. However, Throttle had a plan into action, hotwiring their LAAT, praying to the Mandalorian god, before smashing it into the side to save his remaining teammates and fulfill his final mission.
== Personality and Traits, and Loadout ==
=== Loadout ===
* DC-17m Blaster Rifle
* Custom MA-379b Grenade Launcher
* Katarn-Class Armor and Standard Equipment 
* Explosive Charges
* EOD Defusal Kit
* Death Sticks
==== Personality ====
Throttle is more of a Joker than most of his teammates, often being a bit more reckless. Practically suicidal, Throttle was born with a need for speed like no other clone, commonly tossing off his armor's backpack to sprint faster into battle. While perceived by his Commanders to be incompetent, Throttle didn't care for the war, only the thrill within it. On some occasions, he considered simply shooting himself during Guard Duty to get a jolt out of standing still.
=== Traits ===
Throttle is known for being a Knack of Bomb Placement and creation, though rather suffering at poor remembering of how to defuse certain bombs, relying on his Helmet Feed and Teammates. He doesn't really care that much for the actual specifications but finds a nice dopamine rush after a successful defusion.
