- ―RC-1197
RC-1197, or Darven, was a clone commando of the Grand Army of the Republic, and a member of the legendary 501st. Almost nothing is known of his history and he has only lately resurfaced as an official bountyhunter, hiring out his services to anyone but the Empire. Due to the accelerated aging of the Clones he appears to be quite old although he is only 37 years old.
RC-1197's file reports him - alongside his former squadmate Trey - as part of the group of the 501st who was with Darth Vader in Operation: Knightfall when they took the Jedi temple; he was one of the eight commandos of Decoy Squad Five, who infiltrated the temple dressed in Jedi robes and were left behind to guard the beacon calling the Jedi home and kill all incoming sentients.
But the turmoil inside RC-1197 - the rising confusion that he had felt since he had received his instructions, the utter wrongness of his actions - caused one of the Jedi to reach out to him as he was about to die after receiving a mortal wound by RC-1197's blaster and to implore the clone to save his child. It drove home the horror of what he had become, and made him realise he was something more than just the unfeeling extension of his superiors' commands. The Jedi's last command gave his tortured soul the necessary fuel to overcome his initial inbred loyalty to his superiors. Taking up Fionn's lightsaber, he struck down his fellow soldiers - including Trey - and fled.
After that, RC-1197 did not exist anymore - in his stead there was truly Dar'vencuyot, a man with a deeply-rooted, ever-present sense of grief and loss, all overshadowed by a terrible horror and regret of his own actions. A man who hated the Empire and the Jedi at the same time, for having made him, twisted him into whatever they needed, and then made him kill his own brothers.
