Grodin Tierce was a Human male who served as a Royal Guard. During the Thrawn Crisis, he was cloned by the Grand Admiral as part of a new project to create super-commandos. He died shortly after. His clone was later involved in a campaign to bring down the New Republic, before being killed in 19 ABY.
[edit] Biography
As with all Royal Guards, Tierce began his military career as a Stormtrooper. Under the designation TR-889, Tierce ostensibly proved himself an exceptional soldier and was chosen for training as a Royal Guard on Yinchorr.
In 4 ABY, Tierce was embedded in a Stormtrooper unit on Magagran battling a rebel cell. The periodic rotation of Royal Guards back into the Stormtrooper Corps proved vital to Tierce when a large number of Royal Guards perished in the destruction of the second Death Star.
At some point after the death of Palpatine, Tierce came to serve as a Stormtrooper officer under Grand Admiral Thrawn aboard the Star Destroyer Chimaera. Having impressed Thrawn with his martial skill and physical prowess, Thrawn chose Tierce to act as a template for a new type of clone two months before the Battle of Bilbringi in 9 ABY. Tierce died on Generis soon after.
