Lucien Vex

From Emperor's Hammer Encyclopaedia Imperia


"I had a less than 1% chance of getting here...
Sometimes I wonder if I was the right choice"


Lucien Vex is an Imperial Clone who serves within the Secret Order. Due to his designation as CT-1221-04, he refers to himself as O'Four. Originally meant as a prototype for a new set of Force Sensitive Clones, he ended up as the only 'useful' asset after the project was shut down. Lucien completed his training within the research facility on Dandoran, alongside his brothers CT-1221-01 to CT-1221-20, proving himself as a worthy soldier for the Secret Order. As a newly initiated member of House Valkorion, he takes the role of a Combat Medic and Technician. Somewhere while on a mission, Lucien felt a disturbance in the Force, following it he found a broken, tired and hurt Visas in the sub-levels of the lab on Dandoran, saving her from it and folding her back into the Secret Order.

Biography[edit]

Prototype Clone on Dandoran[edit]
"I've seen my brothers faces,
once filled with life,
then led before me,
a scalpel in my hand..."


A clone of bounty hunter Jango Fett, CT-1221-04, named Lucien Vex, was set to be another expendable prototype within Project Echo. 'Born' in 24 ABY Lucien's development had already been altered from that of a standard Kaminoan Clone, his growth vat had been set up with a Dark Side Artefact within it, a small shard that resulted in Lucien developing a minor connection to the Force (though limited). His military training consisted of a mix of different regiment; one part, modified GAR training, changed to teach loyalty to the Emperor's Hammer; another, training from the Hammer's Fist; the last, interaction from Hammer aligned Mandalorians. His other training was directly overseen by his creator Veyra Vex, his earliest medical training, was performing autopsies on his fallen brothers, or on the leftover undead of the Project Blackwing outbreak. One moment from his training that he continues to carry with him in paint, was the death of his brother CT-1221-13, who died during a live fire training simulation. It was upon the completion of this training that Lucien was taken and presented to the Secret Order as a soldier and asset, later being assigned to House Valkorion.


A Disturbance at Home[edit]

While on a Mission within Hutt Space, Lucien just couldn't shake the feeling of a Force signature clawing out, calling for help. After his mission he would split from the main group, following the distressed signal arriving back at his home on Dandoran. Here he wandered past his mindless Brothers to an area once forbidden. Opening the seal, he descended into the sub-levels a place filled with the smell of rot and death, following the Force and finding his "old" carer Visas, cut, bruised and curled in a ball. Upon finding her Lucien carried her to the Medical bay, slowly healing and bringing back Visas to the world. The process was slow, but eventually Lucien managed to bring her back to the present, to the living Force. After this he would ferry her back to the main fleet of the Secret Order, requesting her reinstatement after the documents had flagged her as dead.

"A living ghost, not on record could be an asset"

Personality and Traits[edit]

"I was taught through the force that my emotions were a weakness,
but still the 'malfunction' of empathy persist in my work and doctrine"


Lucien is a human male clone of Jango Fett, with added genetic code from his creator, he stood at 1.72 meters or 5 feet and 7 inches tall, with black hair, blue eyes and pale skin.


Lucien was always one of the more independent members of his prototype line. He spent the first 10 years of his life on Dandoran, receiving military and training with the rest of his brothers. From his first moments taking the role of Medic within training simulations, Lucien displayed a strong ability to empathise and care for his clone brothers (much to the dismay of Veyra), as well as an ability to follow orders with his independence in tact. While in training he developed a close friendship with his brother CT-1221-13, which continued through their training. The death of CT-1221-13, left an impact on Lucien, from that point painting a red hand-print on his right arm.


Lucien's empathy often led to him disobeying orders in training that would lead to the needless deaths of his brothers, this led to him receiving punishments through Force Lightning from Veyra. Eventually Veyra would use autopsies on his brothers as a way to try and harden his heart to their suffering, this was unsuccessful. Later this empathy showed up as a defiance towards casualties, often taking time in missions to lead people to safety before a firefight broke out.
