One thing that I have found in building all of these different Dungeons & Dragons characters is there are a lot of different ways to achieve certain character results. When I wanted to make a Clone Trooper, I wanted a ranged weapon character. I started with the Ranger (Hunter) as the obvious choice and ended up with
Hevy and
Jek. The Archer Warlord was another obvious choice, resulting in
Commander Cody. As I continued to research, I found some classes that seemed less obvious at first but fit well for a character like
Captain Rex. Sometimes, though, it takes me a while to find even the most obvious permutation.

Pretty simple power set. |
When I did Hevy, the only "Domino Squad" episode I had seen was the first season episode, Rookies. I never would have guessed that these clones would appear in later episodes. When I finally got to season three, I was quite pleased that not only did these clones get a back story (in the episode Clone Cadets), but also a sequel to the original episode where the survivors of Rishi Station return to Kamino. Excepting Cody and Rex, these were the first clones that really stuck out as characters. It only seemed appropriate that I feature as many of them as I can as Dungeons & Dragons characters.
I made Echo at roughly the same time I did
Charon, so the similarities between the two is easy to see. Like Charon, Echo is a slayer fighter focused on Dexterity and ranged combat. As a human, Echo got an additional feat. This allowed the selection of the Greatbow proficiency, giving him enormous range and a higher damage range. Dealing 1d12 + 10 damage on every hit, Echo is no slouch in the damage dealing department. I felt like the Poised Assault stance seemed more appropriate for Echo than the Unfettered Fury stance that Charon had as Echo served as a sniper when he helped defend Kamino.
