Chance's name was given to him because of his propensity for gambling. He found out early on that he had an almost unnatural knack for gambling, betting, or any sort of game of chance. He was so good that he never lost a bet, and most cadets tried to call him out for cheating, but he wasn't. He was just that good. Anytime he said, "I'll bet you 5 credits xyz will happen," everyone believed him. In his teen years, he began a black market on Kamino and was quite successful.
Personality
Chance is the youngest member of Phoenix Squad. He gets along well with all the other members of the squad, even Brett on a good day, and is an all around nice guy. He's incredibly studious and enjoys reading holo-books more than anything. A lover, not a fighter, but he will fight for what he believes in. The biggest oddity about Chance is that he's either incredibly smart or incredibly dumb and nowhere in between. He also really loves candy.

Character Timeline
Early Cadet Years:
CT-5050, or Chance, was the most normal clone decanted of the squad. He grew up being the perfect clone, albeit for his recessive hair color gene, and was average in all of his studies and practicums. He spent most of his time with his nose in holo-books, studying everything from strategy to star constellations. As a cadet, Chance decided early on that he wanted to be a medic in the GAR.
Invasion of Kamino:
During the invasion of Kamino in 21 BBY, Chance and the other members of Phoenix Squad followed Tungst to the outer rings of Tipoca City as part of the frontal assault. With limited resources and training as a seventh year, Chance used whatever armor and blaster Tungst gave him. During the firefight, Chance stationed himself behind the barricade with a panicking Drip and provided support for the rest of the squad from there. After a missile landed in close proximity, wounding several clone cadets, Chance left Drip to render aid and promised he would be right back. Chance made quick work of the cadet's wounds when suddenly his vision went black. When his eyes opened again, he was staring up at Tungst. His arm and leg were missing and he could feel the blood draining from his body. He leaned into Tungst's embrace and whispered his final words before taking his last breath.

Rift has ADHD and got bored very easily. He loved climbing furniture and anything that didn't move. However, when there was nothing to climb or fidget with, he loved to cause trouble between the other cadets. He'd plant little pieces of false information, creating squabbles among the cadet friend groups, then sit back and watch the fallout. He caused so many rifts between friends that he was labeled a menace among the cadets. He still is.
Personality
Rift is one of the middles of Phoenix Squad, and isn't in charge of anything, for good reason. He has the most unhinged personality in the squad. An absolute sweetheart, through and through, but he is chaos incarnate and addicted to all things sugar. He is easily excited, loves to have a good time, and takes life in stride. There are not many things that can put Rift in a bad mood, so he tends to be the comedic relief for the squad.

Character Timeline
Early Cadet Years:
CT-1971, or Rift, was probably the most excited tubie to ever be decanted in the history of cloning. He was energetic from day one and scared a lot of the Kaminoan scientists with his unhinged chaos. The squad had trouble acclimating to Rift's personality, most notably Drip, who loved peace and quiet. Rift spent most of his time doing all sorts of physical activities. As a cadet, Rift dreamed of being a pilot in the GAR.
Invasion of Kamino:
During the invasion of Kamino in 21 BBY, Rift and the other members of Phoenix Squad followed Tungst to the outer rings of Tipoca City as part of the frontal assault. With limited resources and training as a seventh year, Rift used whatever armor and blaster Tungst gave him. During the firefight, Chance left his position behind the barricade with Drip to render medical aid to a group of wounded clone cadets caught in a blast. Rift didn't notice Chance leave because he was in the middle of some crossfire. When the commotion arose between Brett and Tungst, Rift turned to check it out just in time to see the missile explode. Rift pulled back behind the barricade after the dust settled, unsure of why they regrouped, and watched Chance die in Tungst's arms.
Aftermath of Chance's Death:
After Chance's death, the squad was never quite the same. Rift, the happy-go-lucky of the squad struggled. Not only was he sad that his brother was dead, but he also had to watch as his family fell apart in front of him. Tungst and Brett constantly fought. Drip was depressed and Gloss was withdrawn. None of his jokes worked anymore. After Drip attempted to end his own life over Chance's death, Rift visited Drip in the medbay and put some of Chance's favorite candy at his bedside table.
Order 66:
Order 66 was just another day for Phoenix Squad. Rift received the news of the Jedi betraying the Republic from Tungst and their training continued without much interruption.

As a young cadet, Gloss spent a lot of time in his own head. He loved to daydream. However, the daydreaming and introverted tendencies left him a little unawares. He had a tendency to wander off from the squad, and when it came to relaying orders in practicums, he'd always gloss over the most important details, leaving the squad in awkward and almost dangerous positions. As an adult, he's still spacey, but he's better at communicating.
Personality
Gloss is one of the middles of Phoenix Squad, and isn't in charge of anything, for good reason. He has the most laid back personality in the squad. In fact, he's so laid back that nothing ever rattles him. He spends most of his time in his own head thinking, holding entire conversations, and coming up with his next masterpiece. His spaciness gets him and the squad in trouble, but he is incredibly smart and can do intricate calculations in his head. He is also artistically talented and spends more time sketching than doing anything else.

Character Timeline
Early Cadet Years:
CT-3058, or Gloss, never cried once after he was decanted. Gloss was always a solitary clone, never really clicking with the idea of the "brotherhood". He preferred his own company. The squad had a difficult time adjusting to his chill personality, and Brett tried to throw him off his game more than once, but it never worked. Gloss spent all of his free time sketching and drawing in his notebook. As a cadet, Gloss wanted to be an ARF scout in the GAR.
Invasion of Kamino:
During the invasion of Kamino in 21 BBY, Gloss and the other members of Phoenix Squad followed Tungst to the outer rings of Tipoca City as part of the frontal assault. With limited resources and training as a seventh year, Gloss used whatever armor and blaster Tungst gave him. During the firefight, Chance left his position behind the barricade with Drip to render medical aid to a group of wounded clone cadets caught in a blast. Gloss noticed, but was too engaged with a battle droid to say anything. When the commotion arose between Brett and Tungst, Gloss turned to see another missile careening towards Chance. There was nothing he could do. Gloss pulled back behind the barricade after the dust settled and watched Chance die in Tungst's arms.
Aftermath of Chance's Death:
After Chance's death, the squad was never quite the same. Because of Gloss's personality, he didn't show much outward emotion towards Chance's death, which put off the rest of the squad. However, he was channeling emotions, just through his sketching. He became more withdrawn than usual and spent more time in his sketchbook than around his squad. After Drip attempted to end his own life over Chance's death, Gloss visited Drip in the medbay and gave him a sketch of him and Chance.
Order 66:
Order 66 was just another day for Phoenix Squad. Gloss received the news of the Jedi betraying the Republic from Tungst and their training continued without much interruption.

As a young cadet, Brett was a combative handful that Tungst had to constantly reign in. Before they chose their own names, Tungst called Brett a brat. It stuck as his name for most of their early years, but when he eventually mellowed out in his teens, he changed it to Brett and took it as his name. He's still a pain in Tungst's side, so his bratty ways never fully stopped.
Personality
Brett is the second in command of Phoenix Squad, and supposedly the "mom" but he never fell into that role. Brett has a very harsh personality and doesn't get along well with others. He has a low tolerance for stupid people and really wishes they would leave him alone. He also loves to argue with Tungst and get him all riled up over nothing, which is how he earned his first name, Brat. However, he is incredibly loyal and would follow Tungst straight through the gates of hell if asked.

Character Timeline
Early Cadet Years:
CT-2112, or Brett, was decanted with a permanent scowl on his face and arms crossed in annoyance. His gruff personality put off the rest of the squad and Drip had to play mediator many times. Brett gained an affinity for firearms early on in his cadet years and spent his free time at the range to practice. As a cadet, Brett decided he wanted to be a heavy weapon's specialist in the GAR.
Invasion of Kamino:
During the invasion of Kamino in 21 BBY, Brett and the other members of Phoenix Squad followed Tungst to the outer rings of Tipoca City as part of the frontal assault. With limited resources and training as a seventh year, Brett used whatever armor and blaster Tungst gave him. During the firefight, Chance left his position behind the barricade with Drip to render medical aid to a group of wounded clone cadets caught in a blast. When Tungst left to go to Chance, Brett noticed another missile headed straight for Chance's position. He immediately leapt into action, grabbed Tungst, and pulled him to the ground before the missile hit. Brett caught shrapnel to the left side of his face in the blast. After the dust settled, Tungst forced his way out of Brett's grasp, and he watched as Tungst brought Chance back behind the barricade. A few moments later, Brett watched as Chance died in Tungst's arms.
Aftermath of Chance's Death:
After Chance's death, the squad was never quite the same. Tungst blamed Brett for Chance's death and made sure he knew it every single day. Brett, distraught over his brother's death, drowned his sorrows in whatever alcohol he could find. He tried to justify Chance's death the best he could, but the sound of Tungst screaming at him overpowered every voice in his head. If he let Tungst go, he would've lost two brothers that day. After Drip attempted to end his life over Chance's death, Brett went to medbay to apologize to Drip for being so harsh with him. He didn't want anymore regrets.

Tungst is a shortened version of tungsten, a metal used in a type of welding called TIG (tungsten inert gas). The process requires a certain level of finesse, concentration, attention to detail, and patience. All of these qualities are embodied within Tungst. The only person who's used his full name "Tungsten" was Brett, and he only did it once.
Personality
Tungst is the leader and "tired dad" of Phoenix squad. He does his best to wrangle his unruly squad together and keep them out of trouble, but they refuse to stay in line. Tungst is a passionate person with an incredible sense of justice and becomes immovable when he dedicates himself to a cause. He is mostly level-headed, but can become overzealous and protective of the ones he loves. But most of all, he has a big heart, loves his squad, and will gladly die for each one of them.

Character Timeline
Early Cadet Years:
CT-3422, or Tungst, showed great leadership prowess since the day he was decanted. However, as a late-stage clone in the already waging Clone War, his abilities weren't noticed much by the Kaminoans or the Jedi/mercenary trainers. Although, they did notice his stubbornness and propensity to argue, which didn't do him any favors. His squad still looked up to him as their leader. As a cadet, Tungst dreamed of becoming an ARC trooper in the GAR.
Invasion of Kamino:
During the invasion of Kamino in 21 BBY, Tungst led his squad into the fray as part of the frontal assault. With limited resources and training as a seventh year, he grabbed whatever armor and blasters he could find to outfit his squad. During the firefight, Chance left his position behind the barricade with Drip to render medical aid to a group of wounded clone cadets caught in a blast. When Tungst realized Chance had left the group, he went after him. However, before Tungst could get to Chance, Brett grabbed Tungst and yanked him back before another missile hit the same spot. Tungst caught shrapnel to the left side of his neck and left ear in the blast. When the dust settled, Tungst forced his way out of Brett's grasp and ran to Chance. He gathered Chance up in his arms and carried him behind the barricade. Chance died in Tungst's arms a few moments later.
Aftermath of Chance's Death:
After Chance's death, the squad was never quite the same. Tungst blamed Brett for Chance's death and made sure he knew it every single day. When Drip attempted to end his own life over Chance's death, Tungst is the one who found him bleeding out on the floor. After taking him to medbay for medical intervention the Kaminoans deemed Drip as defective and slated him for decommissioning. Tungst begged the Jedi for Drip's life and his pleas were granted, with the stipulation that Drip's record remain spotless for the duration of their training.
Order 66:
Order 66 was just another day for Phoenix Squad. Tungst was the first to receive the news that the Jedi had betrayed the Republic and he shared it with the rest of the squad. Without sworn allegiance to any Jedi, Tungst had no reason to doubt the betrayal, and their training continued without much interruption.

As a young cadet, Drip had the unusual habit of drooling in his sleep. With his face hanging off the side of his pillow, the drool would drip off his bunk and hit anything below, whether that be the floor, another bunk, or another clone. His brothers tease him about his constant drooling, but it doesn't bother him too much. He never grew out of the habit and the name stuck.
Personality
Drip is the unofficial "mom" of Phoenix Squad, even though he's the second youngest, and is the most sensible member. He is the voice of reason for everything, even though Tungst is the leader, and Tungst will often take Drip's opinion into consideration when making decisions. Drip is also a constant worrier and battles anxiety every day, but he does his best to ensure that he never slows his brothers down.

Character Timeline
Early Cadet Years:
CT-7732, or Drip, was a ball of anxiety since the day he was decanted. Drip never liked being a clone, and was convinced he was defective because of it. He never enjoyed the thought of killing others and his gentle demeanor concerned his squad. Chance spent a lot of time working with Drip on overcoming his issues and the two formed a close bond. As a cadet, Drip had hopes of becoming an engineer so he could stay out of combat.
Invasion of Kamino:
During the invasion of Kamino in 21 BBY, Drip and the other members of Phoenix Squad followed Tungst to the outer rings of Tipoca City as part of the frontal assault. With limited resources and training as a seventh year, Drip used whatever armor and blaster Tungst gave him. During the firefight, Drip's anxiety got the better of him, so he and Chance were situated behind a barricade and offered support to the rest of the squad. After a missile landed in close proximity, wounding several clone cadets, Chance left Drip to render aid. Busy fighting his own demons, Drip didn't stop Chance or tell Tungst what was happening. When the commotion arose between Brett and Tungst, Drip watched in horror as another missile careened towards Chance; they made eye contact before impact. Drip was shocked and threw up when Tungst brought Chance's body back behind the barricade. He never got to say goodbye.
Aftermath of Chance's Death:
After Chance's death, the squad was never quite the same. Drip was distraught over Chance's death. Out of the whole squad, Drip was the closest to Chance, and he was the only one who really understood Drip's inner demons about being a clone. Without his best friend, Drip didn't want to keep trying to fit in, so he attempted to end his own life. Tungst was the one that found Drip bleeding out on the floor and unconscious. When Drip woke up in medbay, Tungst was by his side. Drip couldn't talk very well, but he tried to apologize for what he did, but Tungst wouldn't let him. Instead, he apologized to Drip for not being there when he needed him the most. The rest of the squad also visited him and Drip eventually recovered.

Order 66 was just another day for Phoenix Squad. Drip received the news of the Jedi betraying the Republic from Tungst and their training continued without much interruption.
