Delta-26

Delta-26 is a captain in the Dlarit Special Operations Group. D-26 was one of thirty four Delta-class Advanced Commandos grown in secret on Gamuslag in 27 ABY. D-26 was given the name Zerek after his designation. When the DACs first entered service in 28 ABY, Zerek was assigned as adjutant to Commander Tsingtao, the Prefect of Gamuslag.

Biography

Zerek's particular predilection for administration stems from the variations exhibited by all of the DAC troopers produced by the program that was launched 27 ABY. While the DAC troopers all came from the same original prime clone they are not entirely identical. Each exhibits a number of individual traits, having been allowed to maintain a degree of independence compared to the regular DSOG troopers. The method of cloning employed also causes the clones to exhibit various phenotypes, leading to a certain amount of inherent variation between them such as hair and eye color. Captain Zerek is still, however, a more than capable soldier, retaining the same combat and tactical skills inherent in each of the DAC troopers.

Captain Zerek was selected by Prefect Tsingtao to serve as the Adjutant to Gamuslag and the Cenota Facility. Since the DAC project came to a halt and the emphasis was to roll out lower quality troopers, Tsingtao felt he needed a top notch soldier to help train the newly produced Commandos. Zerek was one of the four selected amongst the remaining Delta-class Advance Commandos to train the new Commandos on Gamuslag. Zerek was chosen to be the overall leader among the Training teams.

Zerek is in charge of training the Commandos in hand to hand combat and in technical operations.

Behind the Scenes

The name Zerek comes from the 26th letter in the Aurabesh alphabet after Delta-26's numerical designation.
