#rc-2118

- Sergeant RC-2118, or Bear, is a Commando medic that's part of the 41st Corps

- He was primarily trained by Walon Vau on Kamino, and developed the personality to withstand Vau's methods (i.e., he's mean as hell)

- Though he's very capable as a Sergeant, he prefers his medical duties to his leading duties

- All of his original pod was killed on their first deployment. Bear suffers a lot of survivors guilt that only gets worse - every squad he's been placed with since has suffered at least one death after his arrival. He begins to get the reputation of a bad luck charm.

- Yoda and Luminara do their best to help him with this trauma and guilt, but it never quite works.

- Bear masks his insecurities and guilt by being loud, rowdy and rough with his brothers. He's the first to throw an insult or a punch and the last to give up an argument. He oozes confidence wherever he goes and can almost always get people to back down when he wants them to.

- He's very nearsighted, meaning he needs an enhanced HUD in his helmet and glasses when he's not wearing it. He wasn't born this way; he suffered a particularly bad series of hits to his head and his vision slowly degraded.

- Bear has a slower metabolism than the average commando, contributing to his bulkier build

- He tells people that he got his name because he fought a sand bear on Kallistas and won, but it's really because one of his pod brothers made fun of him for being as big and hairy as one.

- Bear is a strong believer in his Mandalorian heritage and culture and fully intends to assimilate himself to it once the war is over

- On that note, he tends to only associate with other commandos outside of duty. He finds there to be too much of a culture difference from commandos to regular troopers for his liking
