View source for 16th Legion: 66th Assault

The 16th Legion: Dark Angels - 66th Assault, is assigned to the Vendetta Regiment within the [[Legions of Scholae Palatinae]].

==History==

A gift from Emperor Palpatine unto his Palace Guard - Scholae Palatinae - the Stormtroopers were a power to be reckoned with; utilized as defenders of Byss & the military might of the Dark Lord. When the Reborn Dark Lord of the Sith was slain a second time, Byss shattered in the process, the Palace Guard extracted itself, taking the valuable military Legions in their Exodus. 

Under the wisdom of Emperor Dakari, the Legions were re-activated during the Sixth Great Jedi War. A move meant to help counter the Clan's sudden spiral into the sixth, and final, placing amongst the Clans. With, then Grand Marshall, Braecen Kunar's assistance, Dakari was able to organize his military force into a fast moving, easy to deploy unit that helped the ailing Clan surge from oblivion into an honorable Fourth Overall finish.

The soldiers of The Dark Angels Legion were a crucial element in the defense of the Red Faction's defense of Judecca - homeworld of the Clan, removed from the territories of the Brotherhood. The 66th Assault Legion was, primarily, responsible for the designated firing zone 'Delta' or FZ034. Tasked with engaging the vaunted forces of the Blue Faction - allied rival Clans in the Dark Brotherhood - they succeeded in securing the Royal Palace and thwarting the advancement of enemy forces. Grasping an elusive victory for Scholae Palatinae that allowed the Royal Clan to secure their position - in this battle - from the Blue Faction.

At the conclusion of the Great War the 16th Legion - Dark Angels - were assigned to the Vendetta Regiment; previously known as the Scholae Palatinae Assault Regiment. Often regarded as the Clan Regiment, these soldiers are only an additional extension - one of four - of the Clan's military might. The Grand Marshall (Proconsul) resides as Liege Lord above all Legions; however, his personal pride is instilled in the warriors of the Vendetta Regiment. Each of these soldiers is stationed upon Judecca - the Clan home world - under the direct supervision of the Grand Marshall. 

==Personas==

===Brigadier General Ecgwulf Ail===
*'''Species:''' Human
*'''Sex:''' Male
*'''Height:''' 6 Foot, 5 Inches
*'''Weight:''' 235 Pounds
*'''Hair Color:''' Gray (Long)
*'''Eye Color:''' Gray

A barbarian "through and through." The General eats meat off-the-bone, drinks excessive amounts of alcohol, and loves the company of [[15th Legion: 55th Assault#Major Krattunk|Krattunk]], whom he calls "his kind of being." While these actions may not be the normal conduct of an aged, wisened General, he is able to set aside his candor in battle to release his rage against enemy forces.

===Sergeant Niall Mavor===
*'''Species:''' Human
*'''Sex:''' Male
*'''Height:''' 5 Foot, 8 Inches
*'''Weight:''' 136 Pounds
*'''Hair Color:''' None (bald)
*'''Eye Color:''' Gold

Sergeant Mavor is labeled as a trickster for his shifty and underhanded tactics; he is always trying to set up the next big scam. This conduct would not be allowed, except for the men under General Ail. Ail, on several occassions, has condoned the actions of this enlisted soldier expressing to the Emperor and Grand Marshall that these minor offenses translate well into the field of battle.

==Equipment==

Vastly different from its predecessors produced upon Kamino, the Stormtroopers of Scholae Palatinae are molded in Imperial fashion. Removed is the inferior equipment, color markings and Jango Fett clones - this is a new generation of enforcers, tied to a new Emperor's will. Their equipment has been vastly improved and their armor lacks traditional markings, conforming to the protocol of unity begat under Darth Sidious.

*'''Weaponry:''' BlasTech E-11 blaster rifle
*'''Sidearm:''' SE-14r
*'''Armor:''' Modified Phase II trooper armor
*'''Extra:''' Com-link (wrist)
*'''Extra:''' Battle Holocam (built into helmet)
*'''Extra:''' Resonator (built into armor; opens doors)
