401st Division

"I'll need to divide the 401st and make a special unit."

- Del Morrigan

The 401st Division was a division of the 401st Legion that was active late in the Clone Wars. The division was led by Jedi General Del Morrigan, Jedi Commander Main Character and Clone Commander CC-7427 "Rayvis". During the Battle of Abrion Major, Morrigan stationed the division aboard the Venator-class Star Destroyer Integrity as they prepared to invade the Separatist Research Center on the planet Abrion Major.

Description
The 401st Division was formed within the 401st Legion of the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars. It was led by Jedi General Del Morrigan, Jedi Commander Main Character and Clone Commander CC-7427 "Rayvis". Clone Captain CT-1209 "Zeke", Clone Lieutenant CT-5552 "Stinger", Clone Sergeant CT-5765-86 "Mak" and Clone Corporal CT-7797 "Bolt" served as officers within the unit, which consisted of clone troopers equipped with Phase II clone armor and the standard maroon markings of the 401st Legion that existed prior to the division's formation. The division also utilized All Terrain Attack Pods, All Terrain Reconnaissance Transports and All Terrain Tactical Enforcers. During the execution of Order 66, the division was accompanied by a platoon led by Lieutenant Stinger aboard the Venator-class Star Destroyer Integrity.

Battle of Abrion Major
In the last months of the Clone Wars, Republic Intelligence discovered that the Confederacy of Independent Systems had established a droid factory and research facility on the planet Abrion Major. After learning of this, the Jedi High Council sent Jedi General Del Morrigan and Jedi Commander Main Character to destroy the Separatist facilities on Abrion Major. As a sub-unit of the 401st Legion, the 401st Division was deployed on the Venator-class Star Destroyer Integrity as they arrived over Abrion Major.

Prior to the battle, Morrigan formulated a plan to infiltrate the heavily fortified Separatist Research Center. He sent Clone Marshal Commander CC-7713 "Apollo" to lead the 401st Legion in the invasion of the droid factory while he stayed aboard the Integrity with the division. Morrigan planned to meet the 401st at the research facility with the 401st Division.

Order 66
Upon discussing strategies for the battle, Commander Rayvis received Order 66 from Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine, secretly the Sith Lord Darth Sidious. As a few clone troopers entered the briefing room, Rayvis and the clone troopers pointed their blasters at Morrigan and TBD. As the clones opened fire on the Jedi, they managed to escape and snuck around the Integrity to the droid storage room, where they met their personal astromech droids, R3-D3 and R4-P11. Rayvis split the division into groups and ordered the clones to search for Morrigan and TBD. During their search, the Jedi cleared the hangar control room with the help of the droids and began opening the bay doors.

Faceoff in the hangar
As they put their escape plan into action, Rayvis entered the main hangar with the remainder of the division, along with clones of the 401st. Morrigan and TBD walked out with their hands up, attempting to reason with Rayvis and stall for R4-P11 as the droid prepared a Nu-class attack/transport shuttle. Morrigan pleaded to Rayvis regarding their comradeship and his belief that a greater power is causing the clone's betrayal. However, the diversion didn't work as Rayvis ordered the clones to open fire on the Jedi. While Morrigan and TBD were fighting off the clones, R4 arrived with a shuttle and began firing on the clones as Morrigan instructed.

Before the Jedi could get to the shuttle, more of Rayvis' reinforcements charged in the hangar and started firing at the shuttle. R4 lost control of the shuttle and crashed it into the side of the hangar, destroying himself in the explosion. After assessing the damage, R3-D3 flew back to retrieve another escape shuttle for his companions. Upon his return, he cleared majority of the clones along with Morrigan and TBD decimating several clones. TBD Force jumped over the clones and got inside the shuttle, taking over for the droid. When Morrigan made his way to the shuttle, TBD evacuated them out of the Integrity. As the clones recovered from their injuries and loss of numbers, a clone trooper from the division contacted Commander Apollo regarding their failure to execute the Jedi. Furious with their failure, Apollo ordered all of the remaining forces to regroup with him on Abrion Major.
