Darth Pyrrhus
Well-Known Member
Name: The Nameless Ten
Intent: To create a small, elite, multipurpose taskforce to serve Darth Pyrrhus and the One Sith's interest as either part of larger combat operations, or alone on special missions. Partly, it is to honour the ten NPC that survived Ord Mirit, despite being separated from the main army.
Affiliation: One Sith
Availability: Unique
Quality: A
Type: Infantry, multipurpose
Strength: 10
Description:
The Nameless Ten first fought together as a unit on Ord Mirit. They were brought together to serve the One Sith under Darth Pyrrhus' command, in the defence against the invading Republic forces. Each individual was handpicked after a long elimination process, and were thought to be among the best from various branches of the Nautolan military. It was only after the battle that they took the name "The Nameless Ten". All ten members are Nautolans. Though they weren't all born on Glee Anselm, this is the place they now call home.
With the exception of Braxton and Merric, the unit's medic and slicer, all of those selected for the mission on Ord Mirit were veterans of war . They were battle-hardened individuals who had in their own ways excelled and earned recognition. They fought alongside the Sith in the military campaign against the Anselmi on Glee Anselm. Rhea and Azahl had also been a part of the pro-Sith rebellion that saw the ocean world fall under Sith control. After the situation on the Nautolan home planet was resolved, they later served directly under Darth Pyrrhus on both Fresia and Belgaroth.
The squad was initially intended to be temporary, and mission-specific for Ord Mirit. In truth, they had not been expected to survive. While the main Sith army was positioned by and behind a valley, protecting key bottleneck positions, the Nameless Ten had been deployed in the river. The river was in-between the Sith and Republic army. Due to their amphibian nature, they had been able to hide under water. Their objective was to harass and distract the enemy during their attempted river crossing. Secondly, they were to pick off and eliminate any crew belonging to any vehicle unfortunate enough to collapse into the water. This, however, meant that they had no point of retreat, and support to their position was unlikely.
The reason for their name lies in the nature of their commander, Darth Pyrrhus. This was the unit's first operation. They did not have a name, because they had not yet earned one. The Togruta's philosophy was a harsh one. To him, it was either success or death, there was no in-between. Their reward for surviving and completing their mission was a name. All they would be rewarded with in failure was defeat and death. They did, however, survive, and Ord Mirit became a victory for the One Sith. The unit had operated beyond expectation, and the group dynamic seemed to work excellently. There's nothing to cause people to bond like being sent on a suicide mission together. It was decided that the unit would continue to be in operation, with the intent of sending them on the toughest missions. They took the name The Nameless Ten, in reference to the unofficial name they jokingly had given themselves during the battle.
The unit is composed of individuals of note from various branches of the military. The reason for this was to create a small, elite and multipurpose unit with the flexibility to work various missions and to adapt to situations as they arose. The unit's composition was intended to provide it with a medic, a pilot and a slicer, as well as combat experts within explosives, sniping and regular assault. Each individual will be equipped with gear playing to their individual strengths.

#1 Rhea
Name: Lieutenant Major Rhea
Loyalties: One Sith, Darth Pyrrhus, The Nameless Ten
Role: Commanding officer of The Nameless Ten
Development Threads: See above.
Age: 26
Species: Nautolan
Force Sensitivity: Yes, however she is untrained and unaware of the fact (she will not receive further training)
Appearance:
As the commanding officer of The Nameless Ten, Rhea is in many ways the face of the unit. It is a pretty face, her facial symmetry has her considered attractive by Nautolan standards. However, the manner in which she carries herself, in addition to her sharp features and intense eyes, means she is often found intimidating.
Rhea has smooth, dark green skin, and maroon eyes. Rhea is of average height, and stands 176 cm tall. She has dedicated herself to the military, and excels at her job. Having been trained to withstand great strain and physical exertion, she has a muscular and athletic form. Like all Nautolans, she had fourteen sensory tentacles, also referred to as head-tresses. Like many Nautolans, these are decorated. Rhea has brown bands with light brown stripes near the edges.
While this is subject to change, Rhea will generally be found wearing either three types of outfits. On official occasions, or simply when on duty but not in battle, she'll wear the uniform of a One Sith officer. In a more casual context, she might wear simple clothing, well-fitting shirts and pants of a grey-greenish colour, complimenting her skin tone. However, according to herself, she almost spends more time in her armour, than out of it. Fashion is not one of the occupations of her mind. Her style prioritizes practicality above all else.
Personality:
Most of her life has been dedicated to the military, one way or the other. Rhea is as serious as they come. This has lead to some having called her cold, but from her perspective, it is merely efficiency and an awareness of how the military hierarchy works. She is known by her superiors for never having been heard complaining or questioning an order. Once a mission lands on her plate, Rhea doesn't mull over why, but focuses only on how to complete it. The Nautolan female is a natural born leader, and it is primarily this skill that has seen the girl jump through ranks, despite being young of age.
Rhea is very loyal. Her squad is her family. Moreover, she was part of the pro-Sith insurgents that overthrew the Nautolan government during the Sith subjugation of Glee Anselm. She values the Sith's efficiency and strength. While she is not without compassion, she thinks long-term. She would bomb a city in a heartbeat, despite risking high civilian casualties, if it benefitted the overall mission, and reduced chance of failure.
Weapon of Choice:
- BTI-WB "Woebringer" Heavy Blaster Pistol
- BTI-CR "The Ripper"
- Czerka Fighting Knife
- Smoke grenades
Wealth:
Rhea has no personal wealth of note. She was born into a respected middle-class family, with a tradition for successful military careers. Her family has moderate resources, and she suffers no indignities with the wage of a Lieutenant Major in the One Sith military. She's not a big spender, and equipment and mission-relevant gear is provided by the One Sith, or Darth Pyrrhus himself.
Combat Function (what are they good at? include relevant strength and weaknesses):
Rhea's perhaps greatest asset lies in her leadership skills. She performs well in high-pressure situations, and shows the ability to remain calm. Rhea is the rock the rest of the squad can rely on to make the right calls on the spot. Her decisiveness serves as a confidence-boost for the rest of the team. Don't panic, Rhea is watching.
Rhea showed great promise as a young cadet. Her level-head, combined with steady hands, saw her do well in battle. Rhea displays great accuracy. Despite being young of age, she quickly rose through the ladder of military ranks. This saw her leading smaller units from a young age, giving her relevant experience that further honed her leadership skills. Her affinity for this sort of thing was noticed by Darth Pyrrhus in the campaign against the Anselmi, and she was steadily trusted with an increasing amount of responsibilities. This is what led to her becoming a prime candidate when considering the makeup of the Nameless Ten.
Skills (reference training):
Rhea is also a Force-sensitive. She has never received any formal training, and is in fact blissfully unaware of her gift. It manifests in a subtle edge, through a 'danger sense'. This has been interpreted by Rhea as just a gut-feeling, though one she has learned to trust. Sometimes it alerts her to incoming danger, such as ambushes and traps. It is also quite possibly that her excellent accuracy is in part thanks to the Force.
Notable Possessions:
- Infantry Armor MK II
Other Notes (notes on personal history would be appropriate here): Sprinkled throughout the submission. Hope that's fine.
Intent: To create a first-in-command for the Nameless Ten; a leader figure and a calm head to guide the unit to victory.
#2 Azahl
Name: Lieutenant Azahl
Loyalties: One Sith, Darth Pyrrhus, The Nameless Ten
Role: Second-in-command for the Nameless Ten
Development Threads: See above
Age: 28
Species: Nautolan
Force Sensitivity: No
Appearance:
While Rhea is the face of The Nameless Ten, Azahl is her enforcer. The unit's second-in-command boasts a powerful frame, the result of countless hours spent in arduous workouts. His build goes beyond the athletic frame, and his favourable bone structure makes him quite an imposing specimen of his species.
Azahl is 184 cm tall. His skin colour is light blue, and his eyes are of a darker blue. Like all Nautolans, he has fourteen sensory tentacles, also referred to as head-tresses. Like many Nautolans, these are decorated. Azahl has thin silver-plated rings near the base of the tentacles. His head-tresses near its base, similarly to his upper-back and shoulder-area, have dark blue freckles.
Like Rhea, Azahl cares little for fashion. His wardrobe consists of a collection of the simple and bare essential. As a Lieutenant in the One Sith Nautolan army, he has an officer's uniform, which he wears when the situation calls for it. He's not one for formality, and prefers a more casual outfit when he can. Since becoming the second-in-command of the Nameless Ten, however, he represents the unit that is supposed to be the very best the Nautolans have to offer. As such, he's finding himself in that uniform more often than what he'd personally like. He much prefers his combat armour, seeing as he'd much rather be down on the ground where the action is, than mingle with the upper hierarchy of the military.
Personality:
Despite having a quite imposing appearance, giving the impression of a brute, the Nautolan male is a kind being. He watches over every individual in the squad, and will always seek to assure that they have their needs covered. That being said, Azahl is quite direct. Far from being soft, he expects the individuals of their unit to be tough, and endure harsh conditions. He does not support pampering. The Nameless Ten have become his family. For the most part, they're usually the only ones that get to experience his kindness.
While he is against senseless murder and vandalism, he puts the mission above all else. If it's a necessity of their mission, he will execute orders without hesitation, trusting that his superiors have the greater good of the galaxy and the Sith in mind. Azahl follows the philosophy of Rhea, and supports her in all things. They joined the military academy on Glee Anselm around the same time, and have worked together for the majority of their careers. It'd be fair to say that everyone in the unit are close, but Rhea and Azahl share a particularly strong bond. When pro-Sith insurgents revolted against their government, Azahl supported them, along with Rhea.
Weapon of Choice:
- BTI-CC 13 Blaster Rifle (Ol' Reliable)
- BTI-WB "Woebringer" Heavy Blaster Pistol
- BTI HEX Fragmentation Grenades
- Thermal detonators
- Czerka Fighting Knife
Wealth:
Azahl has no wealth of note. His bank account is hardly something to brag about. He comes from humble beginnings. He grew up in a big family in one of the smaller cities on Glee Anselm. His family struggled financially. Joining the military became his solution to provide for himself and put food on the table.
Combat Function:
Azhal's physical strength is a great benefit to him. He can pick things up and put them down. Beyond this, however, he is a trained and highly skilled martial artists. Even with just a dagger, he is a hazard to the enemy up close.
Azahl has a very high tolerance of pain. Through his life he has endured much. It's not so much that he doesn't feel pain as others do, as it is his great willpower that allows him to push through more than the average Nautolan.
The Lieutenant's loyalty, to not only the One Sith, but to the unit's commanding officer, makes him a great asset to Rhea when it comes to leading the squad. He follows her line of thinking quite well, and is a useful motivator when it comes to passing her orders along and ensuring that the unit gives their very best to see it through.
Notable Possessions:
- Infantry Armor MK II
Other Notes: N/A
Intent: To create a second-in-command for the Nameless Ten; a capable and reliable soldier to take charge in the event that Rhea is incapacitated
#3 Braxton
Name: Braxton
Short description (personality quirks, attitudes, relevant information): Braxton is in many ways the drama queen of the unit. He's quick to take offense, and has been known to take things personal and hold grudges. His need for revenge, even against allies, through vicious pranks, has resulted in him not being very popular among his peers. However, since his admission into the Nameless Ten, he appears to fit in well and there has been no incident to indicate that he's anything but a perfect fit for the squad.
Braxton's role in the Nameless Ten is to act as the team's slicer. If they need to bypass security systems, open locked doors, or prevent the enemy attempting such things against them, he's the Nautolan for the job. He's the unit's first and last digital line of defence. At 23 years old, he's one of the youngest members of the unit, along with Dawn. He came from money, however, all of his riches were confiscated by the government of Glee Anselm. Brax has always been fascinated by technology, and his numerous hacking of everything from bank accounts to classified government files led to a warrant for his arrest being issued. Evading the police, he abandoned Glee for Coruscant. He only came back to support the One Sith against the government that had banished him. Since then, his usefulness has been put to use in the Natuolan branch within the One Sith military.
Specialized equipment each NPC carries: Braxton is not one for frontline combat. He'll most likely linger in the back, and set up with various computer technology to work his magic, preferably back at the ship or at the base. In the event that he does get dragged with the rest, his standard loadout is the BTI-CR SMG, and a heavy pistol. Like everyone else on the team, he uses the Czerka fighting knife and infantry armor MK II.
#4 Merric
Name: Merric
Short description: Merric is the team's medic. Before being integrated in the army, he was one of the most promising surgeons of his school. He's got nerves of steel, and can perform well in high-pressure situations. This makes him an excellent field medic. Since joining the Nautolan military, he has received extensive training to improve both his physique and combat ability. Merric keeps tab on all of the members of the unit, to make sure they're always in top shape and peak combat performance. He seems emotionally distant, and is quite cynical. Perhaps it is a developed necessity, after being the first to be called upon to try to tend to the wounds left by the horrors of war.
Specialized equipment: While he will always carry his medipac, when combat calls, his weapon of choice is the "Ol' Reliable" Blaster Rifle. He also carried the Firespray Stun Rifle.
Note: Ignore the lightsaber in the picture. We have no idea how Merric got a hold of one, but I am sure everyone around him were very scared. He has promised not to do it again.
#5 Dawn
Name: Dawn
Short description: Dawn is the Nameless Ten's pilot, and she's a natural. Regardless of size, starfighter, freighter or corvette, she can fly it. She is one of the youngest members of the team, and by far, the most energetic. Voted most likely to break radio silence with unnecessary cries of excitement. While "Dawn" isn't her real name, no one is really sure what that is. Criminal record suspected, but it's a past she keeps well-guarded. Dawn cares little for politics or the Sith agenda, but she loves her job, and she loves her team. She's proven herself loyal and dependable.
Specialized equipment: Normally, Dawn's place will be in the cockpit. She's more of a pistol shooter, preferring the "Woebringer" Heavy Pistol, however, out of the ship, she's normally seen carrying the "Ol' Reliable" Blaster Rifle. Like everyone else, she has the Czerka Knife and OS armour.
#6 Manus
Name: Manus
Short description: Manus is the team's sniper. Like Merric, he's known for his steady hands. More importantly, the team relies on him for his steady aim. Manus has a long career within the Nautolan military, and has earned many distinctions through various campaigns and operations. The reason why he got picked was simply that he was the best sniper that the Nautolans had to offer. He's probably the most decorated officer of the Nameless Ten, though Rhea is close. The age gap is probably the cause for this, as nearing thirty, Manus is among the oldest in the squad. Personality-wise, he's serious and down to business. Manus has a very analytic mind. Like Rhea, he is not one to question an order. When asked to pull the trigger, he pulls the trigger. Hide your kids, hide your wives.
Specialized equipment: Manus' weapon of choice is "The Reclaimer" sniper rifle. As a secondary, in case snuck up on, he brings the "Woebringer" heavy pistol. Like the rest, he has the Czerka knife and Sith trooper armour.
#7 Ba'run
Name: Ba'run
Short description: Ba'run likes to blow things up. Everything from the sound, the sight, the chaotic aftermath; it is like an artform of its own to him. Naturally, this guy is the Nameless Ten's explosives expert. When the need comes for some heavy support, he's the Nautolan for the job. If the enemy is in heavy cover, his job is to take it away. Ba'run is probably among the loudest in the group, and certainly the most boastful. His confidence and cocky attitude has people either loving or hating him. He often leaves behind him a wake of broken hearts and lovers scorned. Fortunately for him, he's got the experience and combat efficiency to back up his confidence, and this is precisely why he got picked for the Nameless Ten. That, or he might've slept with the wife of a general in the Sith military, and that's how he ended up on what was believed to become a suicide mission on Ord Mirit.
Specialized equipment: Ba'run carries "the Ripper" SMG for firing support, though his main gig is the PLX-1 Portable Missile Launcher. In addition, Ba'run is the one carrying anything explosive. Usually this loadout will be mission specific, but can contain such as proximity mines and laser trip mines.
#8 Borg
Name: Borg
Short description: Borg specialization lies in general assault tactics. He's part of the group of the team that serves as elite infantrymen. Borg joined the Nautolan military along with his brother, Orhus, who conveniently also serves on the Nameless Ten. The two of them work excellently together, and by extension, has become a very reliable part of the team. Both Borg and Orhus are a little rough around the edges, and like Azahl, they care little for mingling with the upper hierarchy of the military or the prestige of a fancy title. They're soldiers through and through, who sees their potential best served on the battlefield, pushing at the front lines. Like his brother, Borg takes life easy, and finds humour in the strangest of situations, even in the face of death. If you're walking into your death, on a mission you're most likely not to survive, why not do so laughing. Maybe it'll have the added bonus of putting the fright into your enemies as well.
Specialized equipment: Borg's primary weapon is the "Whistler" Modified carbine, accompanied by the "Ripper" SMG as a secondary.
#9 Orhus
Name: Orhus
Short description: The brother of Borg, and like his brother, also an infantryman and assault specialist. They grew up together, joined the military together, and with the exception of a few random campaigns, they have been fighting together most of their careers. Safe to say, the brothers' bond is tight. Their personalities and fighting styles are similar. When your profession is delivering and dealing with death and the loss of comrades, it is Orhus' belief that you either manage to distance yourself from it and use a little humour to lighten the mood, or it numbs you, and eat away at you as a person. Though their sense of humour varies - Orhus' jokes tend to lean more on the crude and dirty side - Borg and Orhus have a similar philosophy. They're grunts in an army. What the higher ups or the rulers of the One Sith empire think or do is of little concern to them. They adapt and approach their reality once it arrives.
Specialized equipment: Orhus' primary weapon is the "Whistler" Modified carbine, accompanied by the Firespray Stun Rifle as a secondary.
#10 Ar'eal
Name: Ar'eal
Short description: Ar'eal, like Rhea, comes from a prestigious family. They have a long tradition for successful political careers. It was assumed that Ar'eal would follow a similar path, either that or pursue an education within law. However, the blue Nautolan decided she would have none of that, and instead joined with the military. To the dismay of her family, she joined as a regular soldier and showed little interest for officer training school. Her fighting style is up-close and personal, hence why her weapon of choice is the shotgun. She's fast and agile, and is the ideal flanker and close-quarter specialist. Similar to her fighting style, Ar'eal is direct, and says what she means without thinking. She competes with Ba'run for the most cocky attitude in the unit, something that has the two of them getting along particularly well.
Specialized equipment: Ar'eal's weapon of choice is the combat shotgun. Her preferred secondary is the "Ripper" SMG.
Intent: To create a small, elite, multipurpose taskforce to serve Darth Pyrrhus and the One Sith's interest as either part of larger combat operations, or alone on special missions. Partly, it is to honour the ten NPC that survived Ord Mirit, despite being separated from the main army.
Affiliation: One Sith
Availability: Unique

Type: Infantry, multipurpose
Strength: 10
Description:
The Nameless Ten first fought together as a unit on Ord Mirit. They were brought together to serve the One Sith under Darth Pyrrhus' command, in the defence against the invading Republic forces. Each individual was handpicked after a long elimination process, and were thought to be among the best from various branches of the Nautolan military. It was only after the battle that they took the name "The Nameless Ten". All ten members are Nautolans. Though they weren't all born on Glee Anselm, this is the place they now call home.
With the exception of Braxton and Merric, the unit's medic and slicer, all of those selected for the mission on Ord Mirit were veterans of war .

The unit had operated beyond expectation, and the group dynamic seemed to work excellently. There's nothing to cause people to bond like being sent on a suicide mission together. It was decided that the unit would continue to be in operation, with the intent of sending them on the toughest missions. They took the name The Nameless Ten, in reference to the unofficial name they jokingly had given themselves during the battle.
The unit is composed of individuals of note from various branches of the military. The reason for this was to create a small, elite and multipurpose unit with the flexibility to work various missions and to adapt to situations as they arose. The unit's composition was intended to provide it with a medic, a pilot and a slicer, as well as combat experts within explosives, sniping and regular assault. Each individual will be equipped with gear playing to their individual strengths.

#1 Rhea
Name: Lieutenant Major Rhea
Loyalties: One Sith, Darth Pyrrhus, The Nameless Ten
Role: Commanding officer of The Nameless Ten
Development Threads: See above.

However, the manner in which she carries herself, in addition to her sharp features and intense eyes, means she is often found intimidating.
Rhea has smooth, dark green skin, and maroon eyes. Rhea is of average height, and stands 176 cm tall. She has dedicated herself to the military, and excels at her job. Having been trained to withstand great strain and physical exertion, she has a muscular and athletic form. Like all Nautolans, she had fourteen sensory tentacles, also referred to as head-tresses. Like many Nautolans, these are decorated. Rhea has brown bands with light brown stripes near the edges.
While this is subject to change, Rhea will generally be found wearing either three types of outfits. On official occasions, or simply when on duty but not in battle, she'll wear the uniform of a One Sith officer. In a more casual context, she might wear simple clothing, well-fitting shirts and pants of a grey-greenish colour, complimenting her skin tone. However, according to herself, she almost spends more time in her armour, than out of it. Fashion is not one of the occupations of her mind. Her style prioritizes practicality above all else.

Rhea is also a Force-sensitive. She has never received any formal training, and is in fact blissfully unaware of her gift. It manifests in a subtle edge, through a 'danger sense'. This has been interpreted by Rhea as just a gut-feeling, though one she has learned to trust. Sometimes it alerts her to incoming danger, such as ambushes and traps. It is also quite possibly that her excellent accuracy is in part thanks to the Force.
Notable Possessions:
- Infantry Armor MK II
Other Notes (notes on personal history would be appropriate here): Sprinkled throughout the submission. Hope that's fine.
Intent: To create a first-in-command for the Nameless Ten; a leader figure and a calm head to guide the unit to victory.
#2 Azahl
Name: Lieutenant Azahl
Loyalties: One Sith, Darth Pyrrhus, The Nameless Ten
Role: Second-in-command for the Nameless Ten
Development Threads: See above
Age: 28
Species: Nautolan
Force Sensitivity: No
Appearance:
While Rhea is the face of The Nameless Ten, Azahl is her enforcer. The unit's second-in-command boasts a powerful frame, the result of countless hours spent in arduous workouts. His build goes beyond the athletic frame, and his favourable bone structure makes him quite an imposing specimen of his species.
Azahl is 184 cm tall. His skin colour is light blue, and his eyes are of a darker blue. Like all Nautolans, he has fourteen sensory tentacles, also referred to as head-tresses. Like many Nautolans, these are decorated. Azahl has thin silver-plated rings near the base of the tentacles. His head-tresses near its base, similarly to his upper-back and shoulder-area, have dark blue freckles.
Like Rhea, Azahl cares little for fashion. His wardrobe consists of a collection of the simple and bare essential. As a Lieutenant in the One Sith Nautolan army, he has an officer's uniform, which he wears when the situation calls for it. He's not one for formality, and prefers a more casual outfit when he can. Since becoming the second-in-command of the Nameless Ten, however, he represents the unit that is supposed to be the very best the Nautolans have to offer. As such, he's finding himself in that uniform more often than what he'd personally like. He much prefers his combat armour, seeing as he'd much rather be down on the ground where the action is, than mingle with the upper hierarchy of the military.
Personality:
Despite having a quite imposing appearance, giving the impression of a brute, the Nautolan male is a kind being. He watches over every individual in the squad, and will always seek to assure that they have their needs covered. That being said, Azahl is quite direct. Far from being soft, he expects the individuals of their unit to be tough, and endure harsh conditions. He does not support pampering. The Nameless Ten have become his family. For the most part, they're usually the only ones that get to experience his kindness.
While he is against senseless murder and vandalism, he puts the mission above all else. If it's a necessity of their mission, he will execute orders without hesitation, trusting that his superiors have the greater good of the galaxy and the Sith in mind. Azahl follows the philosophy of Rhea, and supports her in all things. They joined the military academy on Glee Anselm around the same time, and have worked together for the majority of their careers. It'd be fair to say that everyone in the unit are close, but Rhea and Azahl share a particularly strong bond. When pro-Sith insurgents revolted against their government, Azahl supported them, along with Rhea.
Weapon of Choice:
- BTI-CC 13 Blaster Rifle (Ol' Reliable)
- BTI-WB "Woebringer" Heavy Blaster Pistol
- BTI HEX Fragmentation Grenades
- Thermal detonators
- Czerka Fighting Knife
Wealth:
Azahl has no wealth of note. His bank account is hardly something to brag about. He comes from humble beginnings. He grew up in a big family in one of the smaller cities on Glee Anselm. His family struggled financially. Joining the military became his solution to provide for himself and put food on the table.
Combat Function:
Azhal's physical strength is a great benefit to him. He can pick things up and put them down. Beyond this, however, he is a trained and highly skilled martial artists. Even with just a dagger, he is a hazard to the enemy up close.
Azahl has a very high tolerance of pain. Through his life he has endured much. It's not so much that he doesn't feel pain as others do, as it is his great willpower that allows him to push through more than the average Nautolan.
The Lieutenant's loyalty, to not only the One Sith, but to the unit's commanding officer, makes him a great asset to Rhea when it comes to leading the squad. He follows her line of thinking quite well, and is a useful motivator when it comes to passing her orders along and ensuring that the unit gives their very best to see it through.
Notable Possessions:
- Infantry Armor MK II
Other Notes: N/A
Intent: To create a second-in-command for the Nameless Ten; a capable and reliable soldier to take charge in the event that Rhea is incapacitated
#3 Braxton
Name: Braxton
Short description (personality quirks, attitudes, relevant information): Braxton is in many ways the drama queen of the unit. He's quick to take offense, and has been known to take things personal and hold grudges. His need for revenge, even against allies, through vicious pranks, has resulted in him not being very popular among his peers. However, since his admission into the Nameless Ten, he appears to fit in well and there has been no incident to indicate that he's anything but a perfect fit for the squad.
Braxton's role in the Nameless Ten is to act as the team's slicer. If they need to bypass security systems, open locked doors, or prevent the enemy attempting such things against them, he's the Nautolan for the job. He's the unit's first and last digital line of defence. At 23 years old, he's one of the youngest members of the unit, along with Dawn. He came from money, however, all of his riches were confiscated by the government of Glee Anselm. Brax has always been fascinated by technology, and his numerous hacking of everything from bank accounts to classified government files led to a warrant for his arrest being issued. Evading the police, he abandoned Glee for Coruscant. He only came back to support the One Sith against the government that had banished him. Since then, his usefulness has been put to use in the Natuolan branch within the One Sith military.
Specialized equipment each NPC carries: Braxton is not one for frontline combat. He'll most likely linger in the back, and set up with various computer technology to work his magic, preferably back at the ship or at the base. In the event that he does get dragged with the rest, his standard loadout is the BTI-CR SMG, and a heavy pistol. Like everyone else on the team, he uses the Czerka fighting knife and infantry armor MK II.
#4 Merric
Name: Merric
Short description: Merric is the team's medic. Before being integrated in the army, he was one of the most promising surgeons of his school. He's got nerves of steel, and can perform well in high-pressure situations. This makes him an excellent field medic. Since joining the Nautolan military, he has received extensive training to improve both his physique and combat ability. Merric keeps tab on all of the members of the unit, to make sure they're always in top shape and peak combat performance. He seems emotionally distant, and is quite cynical. Perhaps it is a developed necessity, after being the first to be called upon to try to tend to the wounds left by the horrors of war.
Specialized equipment: While he will always carry his medipac, when combat calls, his weapon of choice is the "Ol' Reliable" Blaster Rifle. He also carried the Firespray Stun Rifle.
Note: Ignore the lightsaber in the picture. We have no idea how Merric got a hold of one, but I am sure everyone around him were very scared. He has promised not to do it again.
#5 Dawn
Short description: Dawn is the Nameless Ten's pilot, and she's a natural. Regardless of size, starfighter, freighter or corvette, she can fly it. She is one of the youngest members of the team, and by far, the most energetic. Voted most likely to break radio silence with unnecessary cries of excitement. While "Dawn" isn't her real name, no one is really sure what that is. Criminal record suspected, but it's a past she keeps well-guarded. Dawn cares little for politics or the Sith agenda, but she loves her job, and she loves her team. She's proven herself loyal and dependable.
Specialized equipment: Normally, Dawn's place will be in the cockpit. She's more of a pistol shooter, preferring the "Woebringer" Heavy Pistol, however, out of the ship, she's normally seen carrying the "Ol' Reliable" Blaster Rifle. Like everyone else, she has the Czerka Knife and OS armour.
#6 Manus
Name: Manus
Short description: Manus is the team's sniper. Like Merric, he's known for his steady hands. More importantly, the team relies on him for his steady aim. Manus has a long career within the Nautolan military, and has earned many distinctions through various campaigns and operations. The reason why he got picked was simply that he was the best sniper that the Nautolans had to offer. He's probably the most decorated officer of the Nameless Ten, though Rhea is close. The age gap is probably the cause for this, as nearing thirty, Manus is among the oldest in the squad. Personality-wise, he's serious and down to business. Manus has a very analytic mind. Like Rhea, he is not one to question an order. When asked to pull the trigger, he pulls the trigger. Hide your kids, hide your wives.
Specialized equipment: Manus' weapon of choice is "The Reclaimer" sniper rifle. As a secondary, in case snuck up on, he brings the "Woebringer" heavy pistol. Like the rest, he has the Czerka knife and Sith trooper armour.
#7 Ba'run
Short description: Ba'run likes to blow things up. Everything from the sound, the sight, the chaotic aftermath; it is like an artform of its own to him. Naturally, this guy is the Nameless Ten's explosives expert. When the need comes for some heavy support, he's the Nautolan for the job. If the enemy is in heavy cover, his job is to take it away. Ba'run is probably among the loudest in the group, and certainly the most boastful. His confidence and cocky attitude has people either loving or hating him. He often leaves behind him a wake of broken hearts and lovers scorned. Fortunately for him, he's got the experience and combat efficiency to back up his confidence, and this is precisely why he got picked for the Nameless Ten. That, or he might've slept with the wife of a general in the Sith military, and that's how he ended up on what was believed to become a suicide mission on Ord Mirit.
Specialized equipment: Ba'run carries "the Ripper" SMG for firing support, though his main gig is the PLX-1 Portable Missile Launcher. In addition, Ba'run is the one carrying anything explosive. Usually this loadout will be mission specific, but can contain such as proximity mines and laser trip mines.
#8 Borg
Name: Borg
Short description: Borg specialization lies in general assault tactics. He's part of the group of the team that serves as elite infantrymen. Borg joined the Nautolan military along with his brother, Orhus, who conveniently also serves on the Nameless Ten. The two of them work excellently together, and by extension, has become a very reliable part of the team. Both Borg and Orhus are a little rough around the edges, and like Azahl, they care little for mingling with the upper hierarchy of the military or the prestige of a fancy title. They're soldiers through and through, who sees their potential best served on the battlefield, pushing at the front lines. Like his brother, Borg takes life easy, and finds humour in the strangest of situations, even in the face of death. If you're walking into your death, on a mission you're most likely not to survive, why not do so laughing. Maybe it'll have the added bonus of putting the fright into your enemies as well.
Specialized equipment: Borg's primary weapon is the "Whistler" Modified carbine, accompanied by the "Ripper" SMG as a secondary.
#9 Orhus
Name: Orhus
Short description: The brother of Borg, and like his brother, also an infantryman and assault specialist. They grew up together, joined the military together, and with the exception of a few random campaigns, they have been fighting together most of their careers. Safe to say, the brothers' bond is tight. Their personalities and fighting styles are similar. When your profession is delivering and dealing with death and the loss of comrades, it is Orhus' belief that you either manage to distance yourself from it and use a little humour to lighten the mood, or it numbs you, and eat away at you as a person. Though their sense of humour varies - Orhus' jokes tend to lean more on the crude and dirty side - Borg and Orhus have a similar philosophy. They're grunts in an army. What the higher ups or the rulers of the One Sith empire think or do is of little concern to them. They adapt and approach their reality once it arrives.
Specialized equipment: Orhus' primary weapon is the "Whistler" Modified carbine, accompanied by the Firespray Stun Rifle as a secondary.
#10 Ar'eal
Name: Ar'eal
Short description: Ar'eal, like Rhea, comes from a prestigious family. They have a long tradition for successful political careers. It was assumed that Ar'eal would follow a similar path, either that or pursue an education within law. However, the blue Nautolan decided she would have none of that, and instead joined with the military. To the dismay of her family, she joined as a regular soldier and showed little interest for officer training school. Her fighting style is up-close and personal, hence why her weapon of choice is the shotgun. She's fast and agile, and is the ideal flanker and close-quarter specialist. Similar to her fighting style, Ar'eal is direct, and says what she means without thinking. She competes with Ba'run for the most cocky attitude in the unit, something that has the two of them getting along particularly well.
Specialized equipment: Ar'eal's weapon of choice is the combat shotgun. Her preferred secondary is the "Ripper" SMG.
