Name: Jaing Skirata
Rank: ARC Lieutenant
Tier: Low 1
Background: Jaing Skirata, originally known as Null-10 or simply N-10, was a Null-class Advanced Recon Commando in the Grand Army of the Republic. He is also a member of Clan Skirata. He was named after the Mandalorian training master Jaing.
According to Kal Skirata, Jaing was an "artist amongst data deceivers" and could, along with fellow Null Kom'rk, "track a flitnat across the galaxy." His weapon of choice was the Verpine shatter gun Due to high casualties among the Clone commandos during the Battle of Geonosis, new special forces troops were needed and Jaing assisted in the training of the Covert Ops clone troopers, who were ordinary troopers who had shown special forces potential.
As of a year into the Clone Wars, Jaing was, as Fi Skirata put it, "cannoned up and hiking with extreme prejudice in the Bakura sector". Along with Kom'rk and clone shadow troopers, he was part of one of the Clone Intelligence units responsible for locating General Grievous on Utapau as early as 21 BBY. However, Jaing felt that the information had come to them too easily, and that someone wanted them to know that Grievous was based there, so he withheld that information.
Jaing was then sent above Korriban for minor sabotage while the 415th was on the ground below. Jaing then fell off the radar, doing various slicing work across the galaxy as the Nulls went their separate ways. In 20 BBY Jaing returned to Kamino after the rebellion to hand over all of Kamino's clearance and codes over the Republic, and to crack into Lama Su's encryptions. Jaing also was curious in what Kamino had to offer, including what they had in terms of DNA samples. Jaing also spent his time collecting dead Kaminoans and making Kaminoan Leather plainsclothes for himself.
After his assignment on Kamino, he went to Geonosis to reunite with Mereel, Prudii, and Ordo. While there, Jaing knocked out ARC Trooper Klutz. Jaing shortly left with the rest of the Nulls to reunite all together on Coruscant, where Jaing and his brothers were called upon by Thrawn to complete a mission.

Weaknesses: Like all the other Nulls, they are “the most insufferable clones in the Grand Army of the Republic”. Arrogant, elitist, and closed off; Jaing could barely maintain a professional relationship with those outside of his family. However, due to the most recent incident with Skirata, Jaing and the rest of the Nulls have completely gone off balance. Even mentioning Kal Skirata will set Jaing off, and cause him to make costly and stupid mistakes. Nulls see themselves as one-man armies, and as such, this arrogance can be used to dispatch them when they make a costly mistake. Finally, Jaing will do anything to protect the rest of the Null troopers, especially after the trouble caused by Skirata. Having one in a hostage-like situation will cause him to drop everything, thus rendering their objective obsolete. Jaing prefers using electronics to fight, even if he doesn’t realise it. As such, an EMP or electronic disabling device could completely throw him off. Jaing cares about the Covert Troopers he trained and will become emotional when things go wrong for them.
