Captain Rex

Captain Rex is a veteran of the Clone Wars and is said to be the most skilled clone trooper in the entire Grand Army of the Republic (GAR.) He was found saving a young clone named Flashpoint from a Tusken Raider. He reveals that he has vital info for Rico. They went to Flashpoint's ship where they find that it's wrecked. They then meet Sergeant Walter, a clone who Rex had been friends with for years. Walter's and his men's LAAT gunship had been stolen by Tusken Raiders. Rex, Flashpoint, Walter, and Walter's squad go invade the Tusken Raiders camp. Rex, Flashpoint and a rocket trooper get to the LAAT, but Walter's sadly died with a shot to his head.

They met up with Rico and learned that he and all the commanders got ambushed. Rex, Rico, Flak, Racket, Windu, Flashpoint and Obi-Wan set up defenses. The empire fought with quantity, but Rico and his soldiers fought their hearts out and they prevailed with sheer grit. Besides some meetings, Rex didn't get much action until he replaced Flak on Geonosis.

He first tried to scout with some LAAT's but they got sabotaged. When the crew got out they were ambushed by a droid army. None survived the encounter. After the ambush, Rico advised that Rex go for the head of the Beast. So Rex decided to go to the main droid factory with a young captain named Boris. He decided to use the 212th Attack Battalion. When they got there, the factory was evacuated. A young clone came up to Rex and told them that a large droid force was advancing on his position. He set up defenses and after a gritty battle, won. That meant he had a large droid factory and Jaden couldn't produce droids nearly as fast. When Jaden tried to retreat, Rex cut him off. He stopped Jaden's retreat and took him captive.

Later the empire attacked all the commanders on Lifeday, and they and the 65th legion defended. No one can say the 65th isn't elite for they were up against a force much bigger and making the victory look easy. For every clone that died 8 stormtroopers were dead. They held chokepoints so well that they even saved the Lifeday tree! Rex's force was in charge of guarding the center with Rico and Racket's forces. They repelled the empire that day. After the life day invasion, Rico wanted Rex to remake the 501st legion with old veterans and elite shinies so they could face any situation. Rico told him if he ever needed an elite legion, the 501st would be there. He told Rex to take the best of the best and train them to be even better. He wanted Rex's legion to be like the one in the clone wars and if not than better. Rex complied and felt proud of his work. He needed a test though, a test to help make them veterans and not rookies. Rico provided a test soon though, the hut cartel was being nuisances destroying their trade routes and occasionally attacking villages. He sent Rex with his new legion to invade Nal Hutta. He and his second, 55, prepared for an attack. The attack was successful and even though they took losses, the men now had some battle experience.

When Cody learned that Rex had made an elite legion and that they had come back from a battle weakened, he sent the Dutchman onto Rex's ship the Fortifier, to take him hostage. 55, Rex's second in command knew they were coming for him and made Rex drop down onto a nearby planets surface with an escape pod. Not only did Rex get away but the 501st repelled the Nova Troopers and got away even though they were outnumbered around 3 to 1. Captain Rex landed on the planet of Kuat from his escape pod. He was in imperial territory and he knew he had to be careful. He made a fire to keep himself warm.

Rex got captured and when Cody replaced his inhibitor chip, his mind was hazy. He was still loyal to Rico however but he had to act as if he wasn't. Captain Rex tried in his every free moment to get a signal to Rico but he couldn't. One time he got caught. It turned out it was Mental. Rex learned Mental got his head hit hard and he wasn't all there. He asked Mental how he could contact Rico and Mental told him the password. Mental then started walking away bumbling around. Cody then found Rex so he couldn't send the signal. When Cody walked away he sent the distress signal. Wolffe picks up Rex's signal and comes to save him and Mental. Wolffe had a sniper and Mental had a MIRV Machine gun. Still, they had to face 150 imperials. Mental got 50 imperials before getting knocked unconscious. Rex picked up Mentals' weapon and together with Wolffe, cleared out the base. They went back for Mental and each clone had around 50 kills. Then they got to Wolffe's ship to escape.

Unfortunately for them, they got stuck flying in Imperial territory in the middle of space. They were running out of fuel fast. Mental suggested disguising themselves as imperials to go down to an imperial planet to get fuel. They killed three stormtroopers and used the armor to disguise themselves. They then went to a bar to buy a ship but Mental gave them away by unknowingly revealing Rex's identity. They fought their way out and escaped on some speeders. They then went to an imperial outpost to acquire a ship. They wiped the base out using stealth and speed and they escaped with the imperial ship. They were still wandering in space when suddenly Racket's ship showed up. He explained that they broke away from Rico because they wanted to attack Coruscant since it would have a weakened garrison. Rico didn't want to though so that is why they left. Rex, Wolffe and Mental stayed for a while and got "updated" on the news. Mental was suspicious and trusted Rico though. Mental left on a ship after and was suddenly woken up by an argument in the cover of night. Mental Rex and Wolffe all met and Rex and Wolffe apologized. They then went to Rico and caught up on everything, that is until "Echo" showed up. Later Rex discovered "Echo" was a fake and told Rico. Rico then told him he could make his own legion. Rex decided to name his legion the 104th, also known as the Wolfpack. He went to ask Wolffe if he would join. The legion they got were the scraps of other legions. Wolffe accepted and they went to see if Mental would join.

Later, Rex and Wolffe split the legion into two groups since their training styles were different. Rex's men were blue and Wolffe's men were gray. For the final bit of training, Rex and Wolffe's two groups did a practice fight using stun. Wolffe's men won, but just barely. Rico asked them to find a weak spot in the empire and Mental decided to attack Sullust. It had many materials and supplies and was very lightly guarded. He told this to Wolffe and Rex. They agreed and started planning.
