Homebrew Reference Book: Clone Wars Saga Edition Fan Sourcebook - Grand Army of the Republic (Part 2)
Affiliations: The Mandalorians, The Galactic Republic
Heir to the Count of Gesl, Admiral Vau, Walon was savagely beaten by his father throughout his childhood. When he was finally old enough to join the Imperial Irmenu Navy, his father denied him entry, causing Vau to run from home and join The Mandalorians. Upon hearing news he had become a mercenary, Vau's family disowned him and passed succession of the title of Count of Gesl to Vau's cousin.
Over time, Vau became close with Jango Fett, though twenty two years before the Clone Wars, obligations kept him from answering Jango's call to arms to fight Jedi at Galidraan. Stricken with guilt, he was unable to refuse Jango just over twelve years later when he asked Vau to join and help him assemble his Cuy'val Dar to train Clone Troopers for the Republic on Kamino. Despite Jango's reservations, Vau insisted on the inclusion of Mandalorian Kal Skirata in the Cuy'val Dar.
Vau quickly gained a reputation as a brutal trainer, who often forced his recruits to fight each other until one was physically unable to continue. Those who refused to fight each other were forced to fight Vau himself, though only Clone Commando Atin ever dared. Vau and Skirata were constantly at each other's throats over training methods, but Vau wasn't all brutality, for he trained his men harshly to protect them, and to ensure their survival.
Thirteen months after the Battle of Geonosis, Vau was brought back to the Grand Army of the Republic as a civilian advisor to the Special Operations Brigade under Jedi-General Zey to assist Kal Skirata with covert counter-terrorism operations on Coruscant. He was given the chance to work with Skirata's crew, which included Atin, who had been moved to Omega Squad after the death of his original squad-mates. Still, Vau considered the fact that he had only lost three trainees, the fewest of all the Cuy'val Dar, since Geonosis as proof his harsh training worked. During the counter-terrorism op, Vau was largely employed as an interrogator and executioner. During the final assault on CoruFresh, he worked with Mird and Etain to kill Perrive, the terrorist cell leader, in the diplomatic district. After the operation, Vau tried to make his peace with Atin, who still harbored a grudge. A fistfight with Atin seemed to exorcise his demons, though Vau was still forced to tread carefully with Skirata.
Fifteen months into the Clone Wars, after returning from a covert assignment from Zey, Vau was sent with Delta Squad to Mygeeto to provide reconnaissance and support. Instead, Vau planned an elaborate heist at the Dressian Kilosh Merchant Bank, where his father kept a number of safety deposit boxes. During his getaway, Vau fell down a tunnel created by a crystal ice worm, and ordered Delta to leave him behind. He was later rescued by Skirata and Null ARC Trooper Ordo. In thanks, he gifted Skirata the fifty-three million credits netted by his heist for Kal's clone retirement fund, and gave Ordo his mother's 143 karat Shoroni Sapphires to give to his girlfriend Besany Wennen. He only kept one item for himself, his birth rite, the Arakyd Special Blaster Pistol, mark of office for the Count of Gesl. The donation went a long way toward making his peace with Skirata.
Vau accompanied Skirata and Mereel to Dorumaa during their hunt for Ko Sai, but remained in Aay'han while they captured the infamous Kaminoan. After a brief stop on Coruscant, Vau returned to Skirata's compound at Kyrimorut on Mandalore, where he got Null ARC Trooper Jaing to promise to look after Mird should anything happen to Vau. Nine months later, on the second anniversary of Geonosis, Vau had returned to SOB's Arca Barracks on Coruscant to cross-train regular clones in commando skills. Vau was given a mission by Jedi-General Zey to spy on Skirata, and make sure he wasn't a traitor, on the basis that his daughter was a prisoner of the Republic. Vau immediately informed Skirata of Ruusaan's location, and later, alongside Ordo and fellow Cuy'val Dar Wad'e Tay'haai broke Jilka Zan Zentis out of prison and brought her back to Kyrimorut just before the Battle of Coruscant.
During Palpatine's kidnapping by General Grievous, Vau acted as getaway driver for Kal, Fi, Ordo, and Bardan during their mission to break geneticist Ovolot Qail Uthan and Arla Fett out of prison, taking advantage of the chaos the Separatist fleet was causing in orbit. Upon returning to Kyrimorut, Vau heard distressing news that Sev of Delta Squad was M.I.A. on Kashyyyk, and spent much of the next month desperately searching for his trainee.
Upon his return, he learned that Skirata had opened his home to three more Jedi, including former Jedi-General Zey. Enraged that Kal would endanger the clones seeking refuge at Kyrimorut, he once again had it out with Skirata. Vau believed The Jedi got what they deserved, and that the Clone Army wasn't just a job for Jango Fett, it was built to destroy The Jedi Order from the start, as a sort of revenge for the Battle of Galidraan twenty two years ago. Despite the friction, Vau still helped Kal Skirata, Mij Gilamar and the Null ARCs spread the FG36 immuno-virus in Keldabe, and was the first to spot Isabet Reau and Dred Priest sporting their new Death Watch iconography.

Heroic Traits
Organization Score (The Galactic Republic): 17
Event (Disgraced): Vau was once in line to be the next Count of Gesl, but fled that life to live amongst Mandalorian warriors. As a result, Stealth is always considered a Class Skill for Vau, and he treats any attempt to create a Deceptive Appearance for himself as one step simpler.
