Ha, made you look!
Since Bill has spoiled so many character names that we can't have a new BT for RaR right away, :P I thought folks with nothing better to might enjoy keeping their skills sharp by solving one on an existing character.

Play if you wish, or you can let this thread join the Weequay Mercenary in the Eternal Bin of Darkness.
I'll be nice and give you one already sorted out. :)

This looks fun, but with BlooMilk down at the moment I don't really feel like trying to figure it out from memory.

However, those capital G's are interesting, and make me think of General Grievous. It can't be Scourge of the Jedi, because he has the capital J in his name and Jedi Hunter, and can't be Grievous Jedi Hunter because there's no capital Q for Quadruple. Off the top of my head I can't think of anything that any of the other Grievouses (Grievii? :) ) have that starts with a capital J, but like I said, without BlooMilk I'm not totally sure...

It is a full stat card, including flavor text.

It is not any of the Grievii :lol: funny

I just noticed that there are only 2 "+" signs, also, so that means nothing with Jedi Hunter (or Cunning, Opportunist, etc.), since 1 of them should be for +X Attack. Also, the H will have to be for "HP" (man, I suck at these....). So before I go any further with getting confused, I'll go ahead and take out the obvious stuff.

/ (for the set number)
Cost
HP
Defense
+ Attack
Damage

That leaves me with...

That apostrophe is probably for "character's", for something like "on this character's turn", but I suppose it could be flavor text (or something else; what else are apostrophes used for?).

No capital R means no Force Renewal, but there is a capital F and P so Force Powers and Force Points might be there.

My bad - should be three +, and so two of them remain (forgot the one on Attack somehow)

to narrow this down, it is a non-unique character and it might be a commander

Is it from a pre-Clone Wars set or post-Clone Wars set?

Is this where I have to decide how stingy I should be with hints? :P

Ok, I'll be nice. It is Pre-CW :)

Well, it makes a difference about the letters in the name. Pre-CW is all caps. :)

Yikes - this clue was cross referenced between Bloo and Minimanager. The name is NOT all caps in the clue, unless of course the name would normally be all caps anyway. ;)

I was thinking of something else...

[edit: and NO using Minimanager to filter pieces on stats once enough are known :evil: :lol: ]

Is it a Corellian security officer?

Nope, afraid not.

Knock out some stats, SAs and such and it might get easier.
I'll confirm any correct items as they are posted.

This is basically Bothan Transmission solving practice. :)
