Appearance Overview: Talyc is an old war dog. He looks like every other Clone Trooper of the Grand Army of the Republic, aside from the fact that he has an unnaturally long lifespan for his occupation. The Commando is 65 years old, biologically, with many wrinkles and scars. His once black hair has begun to grey, but the man has kept it dyed to hide this. Despite his advanced age, a hardly lifestyle, training regime, and genetic modification has kept Talyc extremely fit, though he has begun to slow in his old age.
The Commando is almost always seen in his Katarn-class Mark III armor, reproduced to fit the standards of the Imperial Military. Over the years, as the Galactic Civil War raged on, the armor had accumulated many scratches and burns from carbon scoring, giving it a rather beat-up look, though this doesn't impair it's ability to operate.

History
Personal History: IC-01/027 was born RC-01/027 in 32 BBY, inside a growth jar in the Cloning Labs of Kamino. His genetic template, as with the millions of his Clone brethren, was the Mandalorian bounty hunter Jango Fett. RC-01/027 was chosen before birth to be one of the 10,000 Republic Commando's that would serve in the Grand Army of the Republic. He was given his designation, and his genetic template was altered from the standard Clone Trooper's. This made RC-01/027 more independent from the standard trooper, allowing him and all of the Commando's to be much more adaptable in combat, and capable of disobeying orders - though the intense indoctrination they all went through made this unlikely.
RC-01/027 and three other Commando's were grouped into a single squad, placed under the heed of Training Sergeant Walon Vau, a Mandalorian and member of the Cuy'val Dar. Vau was a brutal trainer, often beating the Commando's within an inch of their lives, and pitting them against each other in fights. This was shocking and violent to many of the other Commando Trainers, who saw the Clones as sons. The weak were quickly weeded out by Walon Vau, and the Commando's that survived learned how to survive by any means necessary. Live-fire simulations, constant drills, and horrifying interrogation prepared Vau's Commando's for war far before they saw it. During his training regime, RC-01/027 excelled, and demonstrated exceptional leadership ability. He was chosen to lead his Squad, and was promoted from Private to Sergeant.
As with many Commando's, RC-01/027 was instilled with the culture of the Mandalorians. He was given the nickname 'Talyc', Mando'a for bloody, or bloodstained. By year ten of Talyc's life, as with all other Clones, he was biologically twenty from their accelerated growth, and one of the most extensively trained soldiers in the galaxy. Soon after his training was complete, the Grand Army of the Republic made it's debut on the plains of Geonosis. The Clone Commando's were deployed in force, however, the inexperienced Jedi used them as infantry rather than their trained role of special operations. This resulted in high casualties amongst the Commando's, reducing their 10,000 strong Brigade to 5,018 men. Despite this, Talyc displayed great leadership under fire, and due in large part from their harsh training, his Squad walked away with zero casualties.
The Clone Wars began, and raged across the span of the galaxy. Talyc's Squad operated under the Special Operation's Brigade, finally being used as they had been trained to do. RC-01/027 conducted many sensitive and delicate operations behind enemy lines, with an extremely high 95% mission success rate. Throughout the three years of the war, the Commando's Squad maintained it's zero-casualty rate, along with many of Vau's Squads. The Clones became even more efficient as they gained experience, mastering their profession.
After three long years, in 19 BBY, the Clone Wars came to a close with the issuing of Order 66. Talyc and his Squad killed the Jedi General in charge of the Battalion they had been operating alongside, on the planet of Tatooine. Afterwards, they were recalled to Coruscant, alongside the remaining Republic Commando's. Barely a 1,000 Commando's remained by the end of the war, along with a handful of ARC troopers, all having served in the Special Operations Brigade. The Galactic Republic was renamed the Galactic Empire, and thus RC-01/027's designation was changed to IC-01/027. The remaining Commando's and ARC's formed the Imperial Commando Special Unit, and were placed within the ranks of the 501st Legion, under personal command of Darth Vader. The halt the advanced aging of the Clones, Imperial scientists quickly formulated a cure and administered it to the Commando's, to lengthen how long they'd be able to serve.
The Special Unit was tasked with hunting down Republic Commando's that had deserted after Order 66, and Jedi that had survived the purge. They were extremely effective at this, scoring many kills, until soon enough no more deserters or Jedi could be found in the galaxy. The Commando's continued to operate, conducting delicate, classified pacification operations on discontent worlds; which often included assassination. Until, in 2 BBY, the Galactic Civil War began. Talyc and his Squad were tasked with high-risk operations, striking hardened Rebel targets, conducting an unconventional guerrilla war against the Rebel Alliance. This was extremely effective, resulting in a large kill count and fracturing many Rebel cells.
However, the war raged on. Two years after it began, the Battle of Yavin occured, and the Death Star was destroyed. Over half of the 501st Legion was caught in the blast, including two of Talyc's Squad. Talyc and his remaining friend, angered over the loss of brothers they'd fought alongside for over twenty years, regrouped with the remaining members of the 501st, and launched an assault on Yavin IV. They took relatively light casualties, killing thousands of Rebels and destroying their fleet. The war did not end, though. The Empire recovered, as did the Rebel Alliance. The war raged for another three years, before the Emperor and Darth Vader were both killed at the Battle of Endor. Soon after, the Rebel Alliance became the New Republic, and changed it's tactics to a conventional war.
With much of it's leadership dead, the Empire slowly fractured. The Imperial Commando Special Unit fell apart as Coruscant was captured by the New Republic. Talyc and his remaining comrade came under the leadership of an Imperial Warlord, who had once been a Moff. They served as enforcers, quelling dissent through the ranks, no longer sure what to do - with the Empire practically destroyed, and the Emperor dead, they no longer had anyone that they owed their loyalty to. Talyc began to adapt to the new life, gaining much more independence. He took on a last name, Drexl, after the fearsome winged beast from the planet of Onderon.
A few times during the waning Galactic Civil War, the Empire came under a unified leadership, and would launch a counter-attack against the New Republic. No matter how successful these attacks may have been, they ultimately failed, but Talyc never stopped fighting. It wasn't until 19 ABY, after a full twenty-one years of war, the Imperial Remnant signed the Pellaeon-Gavrisom Treaty, finally ending the war.
Growing old, and tired of warfare, Talyc's remaining companion chose to retire from the Stormtrooper Corps, moving off to become a farmer for the last years of his life. Despite this, IC-01/027 couldn't bring himself to face a life that wasn't military, and thus still holds his position with the Remnants.
Family: Talyc doesn't have any literal definition of family, however it could be said that the Clones were his brothers, and Walon Vau was his father. Talyc never saw Vau after the Clone Wars, the man having disappeared to Mandalore. And as Jango Fett Clone Troopers stopped being produced, a high attrition rate slowly saw them disappear from the galaxy, leaving Talyc without a family.
Training and Education:
IC-01/027 often comes off as mechanical, or uncaring to those not familiar with the nature of a Clone. While he does often feel compassion for something, he is incapable of feeling remorse. Despite having seen and done terrible things that would break most men, Talyc in unfazed by his actions in the past. He did exactly what he was supposed to do, which was follow orders. The man does feel fear, or cowardice, these emotions either removed from him genetically, or indoctrinated out of him. Overall, Talyc is a fantastic soldier, but is hardly able to function socially, which could be crippling in the new world he faces.

Training and Education:
- Ten years of extensive combat training, focused primarily on small-unit tactics and special operations.
- 41 years of combat experience under the Grand Army of the Republic, then the Galactic Empire.
- Qualified to operate every vehicle and weapon system employed by the Grand Army of the Republic or Galactic Empire.
- Has only been educated in Mandalorian culture, math, and galactic history of war.
- Lacks any proper skills beyond the task he was designed for, war. This will severely hamper his ability to operate in a civilian environment.
IC-01/027 often comes off as mechanical, or uncaring to those not familiar with the nature of a Clone. While he does often feel compassion for something, he is incapable of feeling remorse.
