"In my book, experience out ranks everything."
― Captain Rex
The 501st Legion is a military division of elite clone troopers under the command of now Clone Commander CT-7567, nicknamed "Rex" and Clone Commander CT-1119, nicknamed “Appo”.
Renowned for their bravery and unconventional tactics and known for their bravery and effectiveness, they fought in major battles such as Umbara, Christophis, and Mandalore. The legion developed a close bond with their Jedi leaders, often taking on difficult and high-risk missions. Their loyalty and skill made them one of the Republic’s most respected and dependable units.
The 501st Legion currently consists of two sub-divisions. While heavily dependent on your chosen kit, these sub-divisions are used for organization purposes when dividing the regiment into smaller squads if a situation were to call for it.
▪ Carnivore Company, typically the strong arm of the Legion.
▪ Torrent Company, typically the gold standard of the Legion.
Also known as the 501st Torrent Company.
Torrent Company was an specialized military unit of clone troopers who served in the 501st Legion. They are led by Clone Sergeant CT-9415, also known as "Dogma", who serves alongside CT-5597, nicknamed “Jesse”, to lead the company. The company fights utilizing their elite training of blaster operation, allowing them up to 3 different blaster types as opposed to the usual 2 all other regiments see. Equipped with an RPS-6 rocket launcher, capable of surface-to-air lock-on abilities coupled with other specialty gear to assist in siege operations, Soldiers are prepared to over come or destroy any obstacle.
Also known as the 501st Carnivore Company.
Carnivore Company is typically consisting of the Legion's finest, the Gunner. They are led by Clone Sergeant CT-9415, also known as "Hardcase", utilizing their extensive knowledge of heavy blaster weaponry to wield Z-6 blaster cannons, heavy repeaters, or even construct emplacement turrets in the field. Gunners are armed to the teeth, and have the firepower to back up any threat the Legion may send out into the universe.
A mixed breed within the 501st.
Grenadiers uniquely fall into either company within the 501st Legion, as their equipment is too unique to stand on it's own without assisting it's fellow Legionaires equally. They are led by Clone Sergeant CT-5385, also known as "Tup", putting large scale explosives to use with a wide array of hand-thrown thermal detonators of varying types, or, while using MPL-57 grenade launchers with the same variety of detonator types.

Mandatory training is a key part of the 501st, keeping in shape and up to the task of each day on the frontline engaging the seperatist forces to keep them from overtaking the Republic in the battle for diplomatic advantage.
Every weekend we hold mandatory training, showing up is required and beneficial. You can receive recommendations and promotions at a guarantee upon completion. Intensive training is given with an interesting twist on the orthodox procedure. Utilising the loss of communication through all scenarios the 501st have a way of including very much so elite variants of their simulations into every training step.
Depending on the command and your chosen kit, these may also be mandatory and provide different benefits, however, company training as mentioned above is a vital part of staying with your squad in terms of battle knowledge.
Keeping up to date on procedures, orders and signals that your company introduces to follow. This ensures utmost efficiency on the battlefield regardless of the situation and greatly uses the non-communication expectations of the 501st during dire situations.
Those who make it to the title of Officer are to keep that level of professionalism throughout, dropping from this level that achieved you the position could risk demotion. A percentage of the regiments smooth running is up to the ideals of the Officers, ad they must be up to standard. Officer Training, although not set to a date, is regular and happens to ensure that Republic Command do not see a reason to demote during the official Officer Training program simulations. They are a requirement of being an Officer, missing sessions without good reason will result in removal.
