 *"YOU DID WHAT?!?!"*

*- Tex in response to hearing what Cryo did to Thorn.*

Tex was a Clone Commander in the Clone Garrison and was in charge of both Coruscant Guard and Hells Hammer Expeditionary Force. Many know him for his role as Coruscant Guard Commander and/or being a very effective Sniper. Tex on several occasions has been the face of CG in the media while being interviewed on problems he and his men have to deal with. Several Clone Commanders who work with him have noted that he isnt afraid to arrest his own men should it come to it.

## Backstory

### Before Coruscant Guard

His story didn't start with the Coruscant Guard however, his story began during the very first battle of the clone wars, Geonosis 22 BBY. He and his platoon together with a Jedi Padawan were tasked with scouting out the enemy forces ahead and rendezvous with the incoming Clone Assault. However on their way back they were ambushed by Geonosians resulting in the death of nearly his entire platoon, with the only exceptions being Him, a clone called "Buck", and the Jedi Padawan. Buck died not soon after the attack and the Padawans status is unknown to this day. The Padawan held back another, smaller wave of Geonosians while Tex fled having been injured badly in the first ambush. Tex went a few days walking the Geonosian land, at one point almost giving up. 3 days after the initial Ambush he made it to the rendezvous point and was met by medical troops who determined his left arm had a serious infection from the Geonosian land that required them to amputate it. Soon after the Amputation he received a new cybernetic arm and was sent to Coruscant to become a Sniper within the Coruscant Guard.

### Coruscant Guard

#### Sniper Phase

His time as a Sniper started with a Jedi hunt, where a Rogue Jedi was reported in Coruscants lower levels. Led by Fox he and 2 squads hunted down the Rogue Jedi. They found the jedi however had great difficulty taking them down, losing several men in the process. Even with this great difficulty Tex was able to end it all with a shot to the head of the Jedi from near point blank range as the Jedi was preparing to throw a rock at another guard member. As a direct result of this Tex was promoted to Corporal.

During his time as a Sniper he developed 3 weapons in the ruins of a sector that he had been tasked with surveying that quickly became survival which lasted about 2 weeks before rescue. The weapons he developed were upgrades to his DC-15A, DC-17 and Valken-48K. These weapons were upgraded enough to be given new model names, The TN-1386 Experimental Blaster Rifle, The TN-1998 Experimental Sniper Rifle and The TN-3040 Experimental Blaster Pistol. The TN-1998 being the most exceptional out of the 3 with its Blackbox rounds which fire small cylindrical rounds that emit near lethal charges of electricity to stun targets from afar.

Directly after this Survival Situation Tex and several squads were tasked with holding back a riot at the senate building. During this riot a fellow guardsman shot down a civilian transport leaving the riot. Tex ordered the squad he was given charge of to arrest the clone. The riot soon after dispersed and the task was complete. The Guard were given negative media coverage regarding the clone. A few weeks after this he was promoted to Commander, at the time primarily working with the Hells Hammer Expeditionary Force.

   Hells Hammer Expeditionary Force

During his time primarily working with the Hells Hammer Expeditionary Force he worked closely with Commander Thorn before his death. One of the Notable missions from this time period was a Man Hunt on Tatooine where Tex oversaw Thorn, CPL ST-0822 "Cryo", and a squad of unnamed shock troopers hunted down a Human Male on the most wanted list. During the hunt it was discovered that the man had a stolen lightsaber, thankfully due to Thorns quick thinking he was able to kill the man and prevent him from hurting anyone else Unfortunately for Thorn Cryo when asked to hand him the lightsaber tossed the still ignited blade at Thorn which resulted in Thorn losing his right hand. Tex reprimanded Cryo back on Coruscant for his actions.

#### Sith Hunt

Soon after Tex became a main Commander for the Coruscant Guard he and a group of skilled guards were tasked with hunting down a sith in the residential district of Coruscant. They were accompanied by a Jedi Master and a Jedi Padawan to hunt down this sith. They quickly found the sith and a large battle ensued as the Sith called upon a terrorist group compromising of 4 Twi'lek Males wielding heavy blasters that soon would be given the name "Twi'lek Oppression Unit" in official reports. The Siths head was imploded by the Jedi Master who took the Siths saber, healed the crystal inside, then gave to the Coruscant Guard for safe keeping. The T.O.U. (Twii'lek Oppression Unit) escaped after stunning their main pursuer.

#### Coruscant Sewage Riots

After the clone wars ended the lower levels of Coruscant were flooded with sewage. During this flooding the Senate seemed to not do anything about the sewage flood and riots erupted all across Coruscant. At one of the main Riots which was being overseen by Tex and a select group of Shock Troopers the crowd started to become violent after a guard brandished a weapon as a form of threat towards the crowd. Soon after the T.O.U. made another appearance and started mowing down the crowd which resulted in a fire fight between the Guard and T.O.U. which resulted in the death of one of the 3 present T.O.U. members and the escape of the remaining two. The Guard was given a negative media coverage on their reaction to the T.O.U.

#### Kamino

Following reports of the Kaminoans rebelling against the Galactic Republic and the Muun 10's decision to destroy several cloning facilities a assault on Tipoca city was ordered and the Entirety of SAD was present in the assault. Tex himself was present at the main assault of Tipoca City and helped take down several Rail ARCs and was planning to capture Lama Su before hearing that Lama Su commited Suicide when the Muun 10 went in for the arrest. After the successful retake of Kamino Tex went through the entirety of the Kamino Guard to make sure there were no more rebel clones and to make sure they wouldn't just allow the Kaminoans to rebel again.

#### Serenno

When SAD went to Serenno they went full force, which included CG. Tex spent the majority of the situation prepping his gear. When the boarding started he along with a jedi and approx. 2-3 platoons boarded the Indeed and while attempting to disable the self destruct failed to stop the droids on board from overloading the reactor and thus destroying the ship,

## Personality and Traits

### Relationships

#### Fox

Tex and Fox had a rather neutral relationship with each other, seeing each other as fellow commanders and nothing more or less. Tex highly respected Fox's decisions and choices as commander before he retired. Until this very day Tex looks at Fox's leadership and takes from it to better himself and his leadership ability.

#### Thorn

Tex and Thorn were good friends after working with each other in the Hells Hammer Expeditionary Force. When Tex found out Thorn had been severely injured, he vowed to make sure no one else in the guard would be faced with the same disadvantage in situations like that and upped the amount of guards required for senator escorts.

#### The Chancellor

Tex held the Chancellor as his direct superior and often went to the chancellor about greatly significant affairs in the galactic republic such as the Kamino Guard Commanders decision to allow the Kaminoans to rebel. While Tex holds him as a direct superior in his mind Tex also feels there are several things the Chancellor is hiding from the clones as a whole and is planning to get a scan of his body in the near future to see if there are any secrets within clones such as himself.

## Powers and Abilities

### Combat Abilities

Tex is one of the best snipers, if not the best sniper in all of CG due to his large amount of time as a CG sniper and the very large amount of time he spends training. Due to his time in several survival situations he has learned how to survive better than the Kaminoans trained him. Tex also holds a great amount of awareness due to his experiences in manhunts as well as being a sniper in general. Tex due to his Arc training is also skilled in hand to hand combat in which his skill has increased in foot pursuits and the combat he has had to do between him and targets.

### Other Abilities

Tex holds a rather impressive ability to persuade others to either give up what they are hiding or to change their mind about committing some sort of crime. He also holds the ability to better recognize landscapes than others can due to his time in survival situations. He is also pretty good with kids.
