The 6th Coast Brigade are SCUBA troopers. They're a very tight knit group and love and adore Vorpan. He's a bit of a stickler for the rules, but knows when to bend them. Mainly because he is terrified of his brothers being decommissioned. In his training the brother who was supposed to command the brigade failed and was replaced with Vorpan. He is so, so scared of failing and causing his brothers to die or one of his brothers making a mistake that he could have prevented.
It used to be better when their general was Chik Rovowu with her padawan Ephrain. Then Chik gets killed. Then the new general doesn't like clones and Ephrain starts to become like the new general. Ephrain only interacts with Vorpan and even then never calls him by his chosen name because he can never remember it right, so he calls him Victor. Vorpan hates it because his name is a gift from his brothers and holds so much meaning to him, but he can never get Ephrain to stop. 'Victor' is also such a slap in the face for Vorpan who always feels like he is failing, fail, failing all of his brothers. Every wound, every death, every reprimand is his fault.
I have so many more thoughts on Vorpan and Ephrain, but I don't want to make this longer than it already is. Instead, here's a link to what I've posted so far and a snippet below of what I'm working on.
Posted so far. Oh and here's a link to where I rewrote the Plague lyrics to fit Vorpan, Ephrain and the 6th Coast Brigade.
Snippet:
“Ready for inspection, boys?”
Vorpan wanted to roll his eyes at Racket’s words. Instead, he fiddled with the fit of his gloves and glanced at his four brothers gathered in the hangar bay. Tern stood at his right and didn’t bother hiding the roll of his eyes while Skyler and Airstrike chuckled at Racket’s words. Racket smirked as he sauntered up to them, the last to arrive.
“You’re late,” Vorpan murmured and the chuckles fell silent. He looked up to stare at Racket. The man at least had the decency to look contrite. He grimaced and shifted awkwardly where he stood.
“My apologies, commander. Issue with the new troopers settling in and telling the boys that we’ll be working with the same jetii as before.”
The other three regimental commanders’ expressions shifted into similar grimaces. Vorpan heaved a heavy sigh at his words. The death tally from Geonosis had gone up to 191 at the end of the day. Those troopers were instantly replaced by the Kaminoans and the Jetii Council. Something that didn’t sit well with some of their brothers. Especially Racket’s regiment that had lost the most.
“I hate to think how they’d react if they had been in some of the other regiments,” Skyler muttered with a shake of his head. “Azure told me that his batchmate’s regiment was completely wiped.”
Vorpan’s gut clenched at just the thought. He didn’t even realize he had moved until he saw how he had grabbed Skyler’s shoulder pad in a tight grip. His fingers dug into the pad and he hissed, “Don’t even think that.”
