Orun Wa

Orun Wa was a Kaminoan scientist responible for creating the Null-class ARC troopers. He was a perfectionist and was dissapointed with what were seen as defections in the Null class troopers.

He had created a trooper that was totally independant and could choose their own fate free from orders. He was dissapointed with this and the Troopers were well aware of the fact.

The trooper N-11 better known as Ordo was especially angered by his creator's disapointment, hating the constant complaints and monitering the troopers endured. Ordo retalliated by attempting to blast Wu stopped only by his mentor Kal Skirata who intervined and convinced him not to shoot (though Skirata himself felt there was nothing wrong with shooting Wa).

This incident lead Wa to the decision that the Null ARC troopers were far too independent to work in the field and decided that they must have their mentor accompany them at all times. This role was given to Skirata because it was apparent that he was the only one the troops would respect and obey.

Wa was of standard build For a Kaminoan but was one of the more isolated beings in his search for perfection. Due to his failure with the Null class troopers he strived for perfection and created the Alpha class but these too were flawed with there independence, they developed personalities and began to break away from what the Kaminoans considered acceptable behaviour.

He strived even harder to create the perfect trooper but was killed in an explosion when he ignored lab safety protocol when trying to cross genes. He pushed himself and the machines to their limits, and due to his lack of sleep knocked over some chemicals which oozed into the circuits of a DNA extracter/modifyer causing it to short circuit and explode. His plans for the ultimate loyal Clone trooper which would have been as independent as a droid died with him.

Wa was not mourned. Even the cloners who adored perfection understood that the standard clones being human and having some independance and abilty to do more than just follow an order but do it as they saw fit was a considerable advantage over the droids.
