Under the employ and control of an Imperial scientist hellbent on creating the Empire’s most elite soldier, a shadow clone going by the designation CX-86 is responsible for a history of sabotage, espionage, and deaths spanning over a decade after the Clone Wars’ end.
Though originally an early iteration of the first reconditioned clone assassins, CX-86 proved to be a cut above the rest and outpaced everything the CX program had to offer. Unstoppable on any terrain, an expert marksman and close-quarters combatant, he does not rest until his quarry has been hunted down and his mission has been executed.
CX-86 is a formidable foe enhanced by cybernetics and the life-weaving experiments of the mad scientist in charge of his craft and creation, revitalized and improved upon as the years continue and parts of his body inevitably begin to fail. CX-86 is one of the Empire’s deadliest and most successful ongoing test subjects, bits and pieces of his failing body replaced by organic technology as time goes on and he continues to work. The assassin’s handler continues to perfect the closest to a killing machine a human can be while retaining complete control over the assassin’s actions.
This harbinger of death seems to exist only in whispers, but they are ones that travel all the way from the Deep Core to Wild Space, alongside the promise that one’s fate is sealed the moment his sights are set on them.
