Description: "Mayday" was the name of a clone commander who was stationed on the icy planet Barton IV during the Imperial Era. By 18 BBY, he and CT-9904 "Crosshair" were tasked by Imperial Lieutenant Nolan with recovering imperial supplies that had been stolen by local bandits. The mission ended up being unsuccessful but Crosshair refused to abandon his brother. In an attempt to save Mayday from the injuries he had sustained from an avalanche, Crosshair brought him back to the planet's imperial depot, despite the freezing conditions they both had to endure. However, Mayday was denied medical support by Nolan and died in front of a helpless Crosshair.
Biography
Assigned to Barton IV
"Mayday" was created on the planet Kamino as a clone of the human male bounty hunter Jango Fett to serve as a clone trooper in the Galactic Republic clone army during the Clone Wars against the Separatist Alliance. He eventually attained the rank of commander during his service. Following the war's end in 19 BBY and the formation of the Galactic Empire, the clone troopers continued their military service as stormtroopers in the Imperial Army. Mayday and his squad were assigned to an Imperial outpost on the planet of Barton IV to oversee the storage and shipment of critical Imperial supplies vital to the expansion of the Empire's military. Over the course of a year, Mayday and his men were continually attacked by local raiders until only he and two other clones, Hexx and Veetch, remained. Despite the heavy losses, Mayday and his troops continued to guard the outpost.
Arrival of reinforcements
Sometime in 18 BBY, the clone commando CT-9904 "Crosshair" and a small group of clone stormtroopers were assigned to Barton IV to reinforce Mayday and his troopers. Under the command of the Imperial Lieutenant Nolan, the unit arrived on Barton IV amidst a storm and was received by Mayday and his surviving stormtroopers. After briefly speaking with Crosshair in private, the two clones exited the base to survey its surroundings. As the duo observed the landscape, the Imperial depot was attacked by a group of local raiders. While Crosshair and Mayday repelled the attack despite losing some Imperial cargo, Hexx and Veetch were killed by the raiders during the skirmish. Furious, Nolan ordered Crosshair and Mayday to retrieve the stolen cargo.
Tracking the cargo
Following the blood trail left from one of the raiders, Crosshair and Mayday entered a cave system. While traversing the caves, Crosshair stepped on a pressure mine, but Mayday assured him that it could be disabled before it exploded. As he worked on disarming the mine, Mayday expressed his dissatisfaction with the Empire's treatment of the clones, and considered the mission to guard the depot and its cargo to be menial. After disarming the mine, the duo came across the raiders' camp. After silently taking out two sentries, the two Imperials opened fire on the camp as the raiders were gathered around a fire. After managing to dispatch the raiders, Mayday looked upon the stolen cargo and realized that it contained supplies for the ever-prevalent TK stormtroopers, who were intended to be the eventual replacements for clone stormtroopers after the passing of the Imperial Defense Recruitment Bill. Shocked, Mayday stated that they had spent months protecting equipment that they could have worn, before reflecting on the sacrifices that the clones had done.
Before the supplies could be collected, however, an avalanche buried Crosshair and Mayday despite their attempt to flee. Crosshair quickly recovered and managed to dig Mayday, who was now weak and injured, out of the snow. Though Mayday told Crosshair to leave, the commando instead lifted the trooper out of the snow, and the two weakly started going back to the Imperial depot.
Death
As night fell, Crosshair and Mayday collapsed behind a rock and huddled together in an attempt to stay warm. Stranded, Mayday's condition worsened throughout the night. By morning, the blizzard had calmed, and Crosshair and Mayday approached the Imperial depot, now garrisoned entirely by TK stormtroopers. Upon noticing the arrival of the clones, Nolan denied Mayday medical attention despite Crosshair's pleas, as he believed it would be a waste of Imperial resources. As Mayday succumbed in front of the two, Nolan proclaimed that the clone had fulfilled his service as a soldier to the Empire before he reminded Crosshair that, as a clone, he was expendable. Angered, Crosshair shot and killed Nolan before falling unconscious as a group of TK stormtroopers rushed over.
Personality and traits
As a clone of bounty hunter Jango Fett, Mayday was a human male with tan skin, overgrown black hair, and brown eyes. As a clone trooper, he stood 1.83 meters tall. Though Mayday was loyal to the Galactic Empire, he considered the mission to guard the Imperial depot on Barton IV to be menial and was especially unsatisfied with the Empire's treatment of clones. Mayday cared greatly for the troopers under his command, and kept the helmets of his deceased squad mates displayed inside the Imperial depot.
Equipment
As a clone stormtrooper, Mayday was equipped with standard-issue Phase II clone trooper armor. After a year of being stationed on Barton IV, Mayday's armor was disheveled and supplemented with various fabrics to combat the weather conditions. He armed himself with a DC-15A blaster carbine. He also carried a small hammer to disarm pressure mines, which he learned despite the Empire giving him proper equipment.
