Ecate Allay was a Dathomirian witch who fought in Tempus's Temporal Unit. Ecate as one of three "Mothers" sent from Peridea to the main galaxy in hopes of expanding Dathomirian power. Ecate and her clan settled on the beautiful planet of Moriv. Millenia later, Ecate and her clan's use of especially powerful dark magick corrupted the planet. Ecate's clan determined the use of this especially powerful dark magick would no longer be used to protect their planet. Many generations later, Ecate's clan decided to resume using this especially dark magick despite Ecate's opposition. This led to an ousting from her role as "Mother" and banishment from Moriv. Following the outbreak of the Clone Wars, Ecate decided to serve in Tempus's Temporal Unit. She became close with the members of the Temporal Unit, eventually calling them family.

Ecate became close to clone commando Besh over the Clone Wars, dating him towards the end of the war. After surviving Order 66 and the disappearance of Tempus, Ecate continued to serve in the Temporal Unit under Mimna, who had officially taken the role of leader. After carrying missions against the Empire on their own, the Temporal Unit eventually joined the Phoenix Cell of the Alliance to Restore the Republic. During this time, Ecate and the Temporal Unit would act as a small strike team for the Rebellion and would fight in the Battle of Paar, which was concurrent to the Battle of Endor. During the time of the Empire, Ecate would marry Besh and became a mother to Cresh Allay, Dorn Allay, and Esk Allay.

## Biography

### Early life

CC-4150, eventually nicknamed and solely known as "Besh," was a human clone who was grown on the planet Kamino from the DNA of Jango Fett, a bounty hunter who became the template of the clone trooper army. Besh was unintentionally produced with the genetic mutation of green eyes. This mutation led the Kaminoans to the idea of producing a unit of clones with desirable genetic mutations which eventually became known as Clone Force 99. Unlike most other clones with genetic mutations, Besh was excused from termination due to the insignificance of his mutation. Unfortunately, due to his mutation, Besh as often treated differently compared to his brothers-in-arms. He served as a clone commando commander within the Grand Army of the Republic until after the First Battle of Geonosis.

### The Clone Wars (22 BBY)

#### First Battle of Geonosis

Besh, then known as commander CC-4150, and an unnamed Jedi led a unit of clone commandos into the catacombs of Geonosis. During this excursion, he and his unit would encounter the droid general, Grievous. Despite their best efforts, Grievous was not defeated, the Jedi was killed, and Besh was the sole survivor of his unit.

#### Joining Tempus

Following the First Battle of Geonosis, Besh would be purchased from the Galactic Republic and, secondarily, the Kaminoans by Tempus. Besh was quickly given his freedom and given a choice: stay and fight beside Tempus in his hunt of the Essence or be dropped off at a location of his choice. Besh chose the former to attempt avenging his fallen unit by eliminating Grievous.

## Personality and traits

A strong warrior and a dedicated leader, Besh was a fiercely intelligent clone commando commander. Besh was produced from the template of the bounty hunter Jango Fett. As with all his fellow clone troopers, Besh lived to serve in the Clone Wars and to protect the citizens of the galaxy. At a younger age, Besh strove for greatness in his training to prove to his peers that his genetic mutation did not make him any less of a warrior. This made Besh a formidable teammate and enemy. His personality and temperament were forged through his dedication, leading him to possess a Type A personality with a melancholic temperament. However, after joining Tempus and meeting Ecate Allay, Besh developed a more phlegmatic-sanguine temperament while maintaining his Type A personality.

Initially, Besh wore the generic clone haircut and a freshly shaved face. However, over time, he personalized his hair by combing it more neatly and growing out a short beard. He also got a green "Besh" symbol tattooed on his right temple.

## Skills and abilities

As a clone commando and as a commander, Besh was an elite soldier and had many abilities an training. These abilities included leadership skills, explosives and ordnance skills, armed and unarmed combat, military tactics, infiltration, reconnaissance, sniper skills, and jetpack training.

## Equipment

While on duty, Besh was equipped with unique Katarn-class Commando Armor that was painted dark green, black, and white. His helmet featured a black visor and an antenna on its right side. On his left shoulder was an additional complex armored pauldron and on either thigh was a DC-17 hand blaster holster. He also wore a jetpack/backpack combination he and Tempus designed. During combat, Besh utilized two DC-17 hand blasters or a DC-17m Interchangeable Weapon System, preferring the former.
