Biography
Edit
Great Galactic WarEdit
Originally from the planet Ziost,[1] Lieutenant Pierce was a teenager when he joined the Imperial Military as a black ops soldier in the Great Galactic War. He had participated in the assassination of Moff Terrick, the Massacre on Haruun Kal, and Operation Force Crush. He also served under General Greist during the Cleansing of Nopsin; the general promoted Phenter to Captain instead of him, but Pierce felt that it was the right decision.
Things were doing well before the Treaty of Coruscant, which led to the breakup of Pierce's squadron.
Cold WarEdit
TarisEdit
Pierce was assigned to the command of Moff Hurdenn on Taris as a lieutenant during the Cold War. The Imperial contingent on the planet was assigned, essentially, to disruption duties. Taris was not especially useful to the Sith Empire, but they would not allow the Republic to reclaim and rebuild the world.
Pierce was unhappy under Hurdenn's command, believing his talents wasted by a commander too mired in procedures and who was only interested in completing their mission–as opposed to Pierce's desire to do the job well.
Eventually, Pierce crossed paths with Darth Baras' apprentice and quickly found a capable ally. With Hurdenn's blessing, the two teamed up to bring down the Republic's War Trust generals, though Pierce lost his entire black ops team.
After this mission was completed, Pierce was released from Hurdenn's command to join up as one of the Warrior's trusted companions.
Serving the Emperor's WrathEdit
Pierce stayed loyal to the Warrior even after Baras betrayed his own apprentice. Luckily, Pierce's Master managed to survive with the intervention of the Emperor's Hand, who granted the Warrior the title of the Emperor's Wrath. One of the missions involved to stop Baras from claiming the title of Voice of the Emperor was reallocating Armageddon Battalion to assist Darth Vowrawn on Corellia. Pierce offered his opinion on General Greist, whom he once served with briefly, describing him "as tough as they come and stubborn."
With the Wrath's permission, Pierce reassembled his black ops team, consisting of Lieutenant Tanido, Captain Lorant, and Sergeant Arlos, under General Arkos Rakton's command to penetrate the Bastion, the head of Republic military operations on Corellia. The operation was successful, and not only was the Bastion captured, but the black ops had finally made its place in history.
Ultimately, Pierce chose to remain under the Wrath's command to help train his future apprentices and soldiers.
Personality and traitsEdit
Pierce was known to have a lust for action and his soldiering and bravery are stated to be beyond question, but was reckless and sometimes bended the rules to his will. He also had a dislike toward the Republic.
He also has a severe disdain towards authority, notably at Moff Hurdenn, Captain Malavai Quinn, General Greist, and Darth Baras. The only person in higher authority whom he respected was the Emperor's Wrath, as the Sith also had a thrill for action and allowed the Lieutenant to act as he pleased.
Skills and abilitiesEdit
Pierce possesses a wide range of armaments, including Blaster Pistols, Blaster Rifles, Frag Grenades, Flare Guns, Electromagnetic Pulse generators, and Flamethrowers. He also wore heavy armor, which made him very resilient to damage.
Behind the scenesEdit
Pierce is a companion character for the Sith Warrior class of Star Wars: The Old Republic.[2] He is voiced by Adam Leadbeater.
