![]() ![]() Over the years, his injuries and aggressive attitude had kept him from being promoted to higher ranks, but he had gained expertise on a remarkable level when it came to battle analysis. To everyone’s surprise, Chopper had come up with a list of places he would be interested in moving, including Parable Outpost.Ĭhopper had been marked for infantry almost as soon as he was decanted, and he was karking good at it. No one was willing to take that chance, but Chopper had to be moved out of such a combat-heavy detachment. After all, if the GAR or the longnecks found out that there was a trooper with such severe injuries - and several psychological problems as well - they would order him sent back to Kamino for reconditioning. They had managed to disguise the amounts that had gone toward Chopper’s treatment due to - as the general put it - creative bookkeeping, but Coric had moved on and Chopper had shared his desire to do the same. Just before Coric had left the 501st, the medbay had been subjected to an audit and Coric, Captain Rex, and General Skywalker were required to submit a form detailing general medical expenses over the past year. No brother wanted to go to Parable, but more than a few ended up here. The outpost was the home of foolish brothers, the lazy ones, and any men who had found some way to piss off a superior officer badly enough enough. It was quiet to the point of dullness, there was no local life to speak of, and no combat had ever come within 100 parsecs of it. Parable Outpost was the kind of place troopers prayed they wouldn’t be assigned to. Much as Kix had gotten a reputation for treating his brothers whether they liked it or not, he didn’t enjoy torture, and that’s how Chopper saw their sessions.Īn hour later, the transport Kix had hopped was preparing for arrival at an outpost on the secluded edges of wild space… which was a nice way of saying it was in the middle of nowhere on the galaxy’s shebs. Even then, every vod had known that was code for reconditioning. The extensive scarring on Chopper’s face, chest, arms, and back required constant physical activity or they would stiffen and he would essentially become paralyzed by the scar tissue.Ĭhopper, for his part, was terrified of all medics and medical personnel, a holdover from his time being treated after the injuries, when the non-clone staff had debated sending him back to Kamino. Since then, Coric had been reassigned, but he had passed the physical therapy responsibility down to Kix. After the explosion that had caused such extreme injury to Chopper’s face, eyes, and body, the 501st’s medic at the time, Coric, had started Chopper on a strict physical therapy regimen. Neither of them liked their meetings, but they were extremely necessary. The dread he felt at the prospect was only slightly lessened because he knew his patient dreaded their appointment equally much. Kix packed his medic’s bag, preparing for the trip mentally as well as physically.

This is not Chopper the droid, but Chopper the clone trooper who was part of Slick’s squad before the battle on Christophsis. ![]()
