Biography
A clone serving during the Clone Wars, Hock served under many campaigns during the war. One particular battle had him working alongside a Twi'lek Jedi General, only for him to take over command when the general, in a tactical mistake, ended up leading her troops into an explosion. He then hoisted her body over his shoulder and ordered for Red Team to provide cover fire and Blue team to follow him and undergo a flanking procedure, taking down several Super Battle Droids. By the time of the end of the war, however, Hock had been left for dead by the Jedi Generals, causing him to hate his former commanders, also gaining a scar over his right eye. Eventually, while at a bar, he began to hear of stories relating to another warrior: That of the then-newly formed Galactic Empire's top enforcer, Darth Vader. Although he was normally skeptical of stories told by spacers and pilots, he was interested, wanting to believe, and eventually signed up to join his 501st Legion.
