Noted for his passion for personal combat and fervent loyalty, Rom was a “soldier’s soldier,” serving with distinction in the Clone Wars and later in the Galactic Civil War. His experiences in the Clone Wars imparted on him a nearly obsessive fascination with droids and cybernetic technology. He would go so far as to pit himself against the galaxies most deadly droids in single combat to test both his combat skills and the abilities of his droid opponents. His stint as an Imperial Spacetrooper and the post-war sanctions on droid technology caused him endless frustration. He saw Imperial cybernetic technology as extraordinarily limited; a flaw which Rom planned to correct. Using his vast experience and knowledge, Rom outlined an innovative and deadly design which would come to be known as the Dark Trooper Project.

Rom and his creations met their match in the mercenary Kyle Katarn, who was tasked by Rebel High Command to put an end to the project. After systematically destroying the projects production facilities, Katarn confronted the general onboard his own factory ship, the Arc Hammer. Donning an experimental third phase exoskeleton, Rom dueled the rebel agent and was ultimately defeated. Kyle went on to destroy the factory ship itself, bringing a premature end to Rom’s greatest work.

Rom Mohc Encounters

Encounters with Rom vary depending on the Era in which he is encountered.

During the Clone Wars he was an up-and-coming junior officer who delighted in fighting side by side with the clones under his command. His overzealousness to engage droids in personal combat could get him in over his head, requiring a rescue from the PCs, or ruining their carefully laid plans.

In the time of the Empire, the vast infrastructure of the Dark Trooper project extends to the farthest corners of the Empire. PCs could be hired by Jabba the Hutt to transport ore or by Rebel Command to find out why the Emperor is diverting huge sums of currency. Rom has the full might of the Empire behind him, and has access to any troops, ships or supplies he may need. He is never found without a least a squad of Stormtroopers as an escort, and spends the majority of his time intightly secured military installations or aboard the Arc Hammer.

Rom Mohc Tactics

General Mohc rarely sees any active combat after he is promoted out of his Spacetrooper unit, but relishes the opportunity if it arises. He will use his Grizzled Warrior and Veteran abilities followed by Coordinate on his men, directing them to concentrate fire on the most dangerous opponents. If he can, he will grab a rifle or heavy weapon off of a fallen trooper and utilize well-placed area attacks when possible or burst fire on the toughest looking foe.

If he is encountered as a Spacetrooper or in the later periods of the Dark Trooper project, he will don his armor and stay mobile using the suits jet pack, but otherwise follow a similar battle stratagem.
