History[]

Top was a second-generation Genetic Infantryman created by the Clavel Corporation to fight a war on a world he knew as Nu Earth. Along with the rest of his regiment (except for Friday), he was apparently killed at Hill 392. His consciousness, and those of his comrades Lucky and Eightball, were preserved on biochips which were eventually retrieved from a ship belonging to the alien 'Scavenger of Souls' by Friday.

Top's biochip was placed in a slot in Friday's helmet, from which he dispensed advice. Along with the other biochips (by this time including the first-generation G.I. named Gunnar), Top was eventually captured by the religious order of zealots known as the Karvanu. His ultimate fate is unrecorded.

Paraphernalia[]

Equipment

Yes, he is.

Transportation

Carried about on Friday's head.

Weapons

Has a friend who is a gun.

Notes[]

Top was the 'Topkick' of Friday's unit before the massacre on Hill 392, and so technically outranked Friday.

Trivia[]

Top's position in the revived Rogue Trooper series was roughly analogous to that of Helm in the original series.
