Something about myself: TKID: TX-73876

Approved character: Del Meeko 

Why you chose: I've been interested in joining the 501st for almost a decade but the timing was never really right. 2 years ago I saw Janina Gavankar absolutely beside herself to join the starwars family and in every interview, clip or magazine article she was so happy to be Iden (which I'm also doing) that it reminded me of how starwars has always made me feel and it inspired me to finally make my little starwars dream come true in honour of that reminder I chose inferno squad as my first step into a larger world. 

Something about myself: I'm a life long starwars fan and dog lover I have a Shiba Inu named Saki. I have practiced Kendo and Muso Shinden Ryu Iaido for the past 22years and hold San (3rd) Dan's in both.

Approved character: Staff officer, social officer

Why you chose: Originally chosen because I like being able to wrangle in kit, but there's something so sharp about a well-dressed officer!

Something about myself: I'm a huge Warhammer player in my not-costuming spare time, primarily Warhammer 30/40k - I love painting models!

TKID:  TK72525

Approved character: Imperial Staff Officer

Why you chose: I like wearing black and being able to see whats around me so a Imperial Officer seemed like a good place to start my 501st journey. 

Something about myself: My mates call me Macca and I am involved in alot of the behind the scene aspects of Theatre. So actually being seen by people at 501st events is an interesting change for me

Approved character: Mara Jade

Why you chose: I chose to join the 501st legion to get the chance to some good in the community and meet some amazing people. The opportunity to dress as Mara Jade came up earlier this year and many suggested that it would suit me. After learning a little about the character and checking out the costume I’m so happy to be portraying her at events.

Something about myself: I’m a canine enthusiast and spend time volunteering with the Australian Working Dog Rescue Int. I also enjoy dressing up as superheroes and doing similar things to the 501st.
