Trench/Legends

"I smell fear, and it smells good."

- Trench

Trench was a male Harch and a very successful fleet admiral in the Separatist armada during the Clone Wars. He was responsible for the destruction of many Republic fleets as well as Jedi. Trench's command style demanded respect from his subordinates and dread from his adversaries. His ruthlessness was known throughout the Republic.

Early career
At one point at the past, Admiral Trench was present at the battle that became known as the battle of Malastare Narrows. During the battle, Trench left a lasting memory to all those, who were part of it, including Admiral Yularen, who commanded a fleet back then. Many lives were lost and many ships "torn apart" by the fleet of the dreaded harch admiral. However, a Jedi task force was brought in and with that attack Trench's ship was vaporized. He was assumed to have gone down with the destroyed vessel, but later during the Clone Wars he resurfaced at the blockade of Christophsis.

The Blockade of Christophsis
After the intitial victory over the forces of Whorm Loathsom and the Retail Caucus, the Republic started a relief effort for the people of Christophsis. The misson to help the christophsians was led by Bail Organa from Alderaan. Unfortunatelly, the planet fell under attack of Admiral Trench and his armies. Trench's first priority was to cut off any supplies to the relief effort below on the planet. Commanding his fleet from his very own war-painted Providence-class carrier/destroyer, the massive fire power of his cruiser allowed the Admiral to cripple any attempt by incoming supply ships to get to the surface. Such an attempt was tryed by Anakin Skywalker and his cruisers. The Jedi were met with suppressive fire from Trench's destroyer and were forced to retreat behind the moon of Christophsis. While the Jedi retreated and regrouped behind the moon, Trench felt he had won this round. He then ordered his troops not to follow the enemy, but to recycle the shilds and allow the cannons to recharge to full power. The Admiral, satisfied with the proceedings, sat back in his seat at the bridge and gladly awaited for the soon return of the enemy ships. The Republic's counter-attack eventually came in the form of Stealth ship, piloted by Anakin Skywalker himself and Admiral Yularen. Unknowing of the cloacked ship, Trench became impatient and ordered a number of Hyena-class bombers to attack the surface and particularlly the command center of Bail Organa. This bombing was planned by Trench to draw out the hiding Republic "cowards", as he put it.
