Rogue Assassin

## Rouge Assassin

**Rogue Assassin** was the designation given to a former Clone Stormtrooper who served in the Galactic Republic's Grand Army during the Clone Wars and would go on to become a mercenary, taking on missions to hunt down deserting Imperial Stormtroopers for the Galactic Empire. Sometime before the Battle of Yavin, the Rouge Assassin would also take a job for the growing Rebel Alliance to eliminate a division of Clone Stormtroopers on Yavin IV.

## **Deployment**

### **Galactic Republic**

Developed as a genetic clone soldier of the Mandalorian bounty hunter Jango Fett, the Rouge Assassin would be raised to fight in the Grand Army of the Republic against the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars. During his service, the Rouge Assassin would obtain a set of both Phase I and Phase II Clone Trooper armor outfitted with a JT-12 Jetpack indicating that he had fought in the Clone Wars as a Jet Trooper.

### **Galactic Empire**

As the Clone Wars drew to a close with the execution of Order 66 and the reorganization of the Galactic Republic into the First Galactic Empire, the Rouge Assassin likely transitioned into the new Stormtrooper Corps of the new order before choosing to pursue a career as a mercenary for hire, taking his equipment and armor from his service in the Republic military with him.

### **Mercenary Career**

Under his new banner as a mercenary, the Rouge Assassin would take a job destroying a contingent of Separatist battle droids operating on the barren planetoid of Polis Massa, where he had been dispatched by an unknown client to eliminate several IG-100 MagnaGuards to disrupt the operations of both the Trade Federation and the Techno Union whilst both galactic corporations where distracted with a internal dispute. The Rouge Assassin was successful in his mission, being compensated for his efforts and continuing to operate in the galaxy. The Rouge Assassin's next operation was for the early members of the Alliance to Restore the Republic, who hired the clone mercenary to eliminate a small task force of clone stormtroopers which had been located on the jungle moon of Yavin IV, operating out of the ancient Massassi Temples. Despite the traditional bond known to exist between clone troopers, the Rouge Assassin accepted the operation, eliminating six Galactic Marines designated as commanders for the task force alongside with their stormtrooper subordinates.

Despite this operation, the Rouge Assassin would not face recompense from the Galactic Empire, and would instead be hired by the regime to hunt down deserting coalitions of Imperial soldiers. In the first of these assignments, the Rouge Assassin was dispatched to the swamp world of Dagobah, where he was able to target and eliminate three deserting Imperial Officers along with their stormtrooper escorts. Having proven his worth to his Imperial contractors, the Rouge Assassin would be dispatched on a second mission to eliminate another coalition of defecting Imperial soldiers on the war-torn planet of Mygeeto. There, the Rouge Assassin fought through the streets of a war-torn city against several deserting stormtroopers including units of scout trooper, shock trooper, and even some Phase 0 dark troopers before managing to locate and eliminate another set of three Imperial Officers commanding the deserting stormtroopers.

## **Equipment**

Having served as a Clone Trooper in the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars, the Rouge Assassin was outfitted with a set of standard issue Phase I clone trooper armor, later upgrading to the Phase II variant as the war dragged on. Serving as a Clone Jet Trooper, the Rouge Assassin was also outfitted with a JT-12 Jetpack and wielded a DC-15A blaster rifle and a DC-15s blaster carbine. The Rouge Assassin would retain all of his military equipment from his service in the Clone Wars during his time as a mercenary.
