==Biography==
===Clone Wars===
The clone trooper known as Boil served in the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems. He served with the 212th Attack Battalion's Ghost Company—led by Jedi General Obi-Wan Kenobi and Clone Commander Cody. He developed a close friendship with a fellow trooper, Waxer. Early in the war, Boil was part of squad led by Waxer during a mission to investigate whether clone POWs were being kept on Krystar. He also took part in the siege of Hisseen and helped rescue the Hisseenian parliament from battle droids.Star Wars Adventures: The Clone Wars – Battle Tales 3
Later in the war, Ghost Company was sent to the planet Ryloth to liberate the Twi'lek prisoners from the Separatist Droid Army. While scouting the abandoned city of Nabat, Boil and Waxer came across the young orphaned Twi'lek child Numa, who led them to discover that the rest of the city's citizens were being held prisoner by Separatist battle droids in the city's center. Under General Kenobi's leadership, Boil and the other soldiers of Ghost Company succeeded in freeing the Twi'leks while also destroying the Separatists' proton cannons.
Boil and Waxer continued to serve together following the liberation of Ryloth; during the Second Battle of Geonosis, the two clones were ordered by Commander Cody to rescue General Kenobi after his Republic gunship was shot down by Separatist forces. They successfully completed their mission, avoiding enemy fire and retrieving the Jedi General along with another survivor, the clone trooper known as "Trapper." Boil also saw action in the Battle on Kiros while still serving in Kenobi's 212th Attack Battalion.
Near the end of the war, Boil joined clone troopers Threepwood and Tracker as they accompanied Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker in a search for Quinlan Vos, Count Dooku, and Asajj Ventress on the planet Christophsis. After inspecting the crash site of the fugitives' ship Banshee, the clones and the Jedi determined that the fugitives were still alive but at least one of them was wounded. Shortly after, they attacked the Separatist base on the planet.Dark Disciple
===Legacy===
Years later, Numa—now a resistance fighter in the Free Ryloth Movement—wore a piece of armor on her left arm with the word "Boil" written in Aurebesh.
==Personality and traits==
Early in the Battle of Ryloth, Boil called the planet's Twi'leks 'tail-heads.' During the conflict, he befriended fellow clone trooper Waxer. Boil soon helped and cared for the displaced Twi'lek girl Numa, after he was persuaded by Waxer to do likewise. He was easygoing and friendly to the girl as they continued to watch over her during the battle for Nabat. After providing assistance in finding Numa's parents during the Battle of Ryloth, Boil added a drawing of Numa to his helmet, which he kept for the remainder of the war as a reminder of the little girl. 
Like all clone troopers, Waxer stood at 1.83 meters (or 6 feet) tall. He had a goatee, brown eyes and tan skin.
==Skills and abilities==
Boil was proficient in both armed and unarmed combat. Alongside fellow clone trooper Waxer whom he befriended on Ryloth, Boil was known for his skills in infiltration and reconnaissance, which proved vital in freeing Ryloth from the Separatists led by Wat Tambor.
==Equipment==
At the Battle of Ryloth, Waxer wore Phase I clone trooper armor, which had custom markings painted in the orange of the 212th Attack Battalion. At the Second Battle of Geonosis, he wore Advanced Recon Force Scout Trooper armor that was painted dark brown and orange to help him camouflage in the deserts of the planet. He also painted a small depiction of Numa on the right side of his helmet. By the time of the Battle of Kiros, he wore Phase II clone trooper armor that retained some of his custom markings.
Boil made use of the standard issue DC-15A blaster carbine during the war.
