Galaxy Guide 15: Attack of the Clones

There is a great disturbance in the Force. From the sleek shapes of the glimmering Coruscant skyscape to the lush gardens of pastoral Naboo, dissent is rolling. The Republic is failing, even under the leadership of Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, elected ten years earlier to save the crumbling government. Separatists threaten war and the Senate is hopelessly divided, unable to determine whether to raise an army for battle or keep the fragile peace. It is a stalemate that, once broken, could lead to galactic chaos.

Chapter One: The Republic

"I will not let this Republic, that has stood for a thousand years, be split in two!" — Supreme Chancellor Palpatine

Of the millions of inhabited worlds in the Galaxy, thousands were members of the Galactic Republic. The Republic's worlds were represented by Senators who served their term in the Galactic Senate on the capital world of Coruscant. The elected leader of the Republic was the Supreme Chancellor, who by law could serve no more than two four-year terms. Operating out of the Judicial Department under the office of Supreme Chancellor, the Jedi High Council had overall decision-making powers regarding the Jedi and their role in Galactic affairs. Although the Galactic Senate strived to maintain order through diplomacy and negotiation, it relied on the Jedi Order to enforce justice when all else failed. During the events of the Battle of Naboo, the Republic had grown unbearably corrupt. Senator Palpatine of Naboo became the Chancellor, after his predecessor, Finis Valorum, was thrown out in a no-confidence vote in a wave of protest against his handling of the conflict with the Trade Federation. Four years after the Battle of Naboo, the Galactic Senate reelected Supreme Chancellor Palpatine for a second term. Palpatine continued to maintain order in the Senate, forged alliances with powerful figures, remained free from scandal and never displayed any indication of bias against different species or cultures. But during his reign, many Senators came to question the very foundation of the Republic, which seemed to have evolved into nothing more than a political machine designed to funnel money and resources to the capital world of Coruscant. Unrest and dissent were beginning to spread throughout the galaxy, and in these troubled times, Palpatine frequently sought help from the Jedi. A feeling of disenfranchisement grew in the galaxy, particularly in outlying systems where heavy taxation was not balanced by improved services. Into this disarray stepped a charismatic man named Count Dooku, a former Jedi, who sought to teach the Republic a lesson. The status quo could be upended and there was an opportunity for change - radical change. Dooku led a popular Separatist movement that gained increasing momentum, and in two short years, he had a following of several thousand solar systems.

For the first time in a thousand years, fear of open warfare crept into the Republic. The valiant Jedi Knights were too few to prevent the scattered flashpoints of violence sparked by the Separatists. Supreme Chancellor Palpatine was confident in peaceful resolution through negotiation, but not everyone was so levelheaded. Alarmist Senators called for the creation of an Army of the Republic. The Military Creation Act was to be put to a vote, and many believed that the establishment of a Republic military would merely be the catalyst for an all-out civil war. The vote was delayed following an assassination attempt on the opposition leader, Padmé Amidala. Supreme Chancellor Palpatine took to the HoloNet to ask Count Dooku to parlay, but he received no response. He formed a loyalist committee to better help him deal with the crisis, but had to endure further scandal when it was revealed that even that entity had been infiltrated by Separatist sympathizers.

The Galactic Senate

The Galactic Senate was a place where all the Republic's elected and appointed Senators and representatives from the farthest reaches of the Galaxy would discuss major problems and come to decisions. The Senate was the legislative and executive power of the Republic (although at various times by the end of the Republic's existence, the Office of the Supreme Chancellor held de facto executive authority). It also had limited judicial authority, presumably for high-profile plaintiffs or cases too controversial for (or tied in) the Supreme Court. Such cases included trying Senators for treason, war crimes, and presumably corruption and treason of the Supreme Chancellor. The Galactic Constitution invested the Senate with the power to regulate trade, maintain maps of the Galaxy's hyperspace routes, and to maintain the Republic's military. It is not known what other duties the Senate held; it was still a relatively weak body at the end of the Old Sith Wars. Following the Ruusan Reformation, a large amount of power was removed from the Chancellor and granted to the Senate, which although resulting in greater regional involvement in galactic politics, also resulted in increased gridlock and corruption. The Senate convened in a massive domed structure over two kilometers in diameter that stood at the heart of Coruscant's governmental district. In the 10 years since the crisis on Naboo, this area was altered almost beyond recognition. New buildings and floors housed the thousands of extra departments and commissions that were formed in the name of bolstering the stability of the Republic. The center of this expansion was the huge domed Senate Office Building, standing directly in front of the Senate, where Palpatine himself had his formal, ceremonial office. In addition, corpulent Senators, keen to minimize their journey to the Senate, used every form of persuasion to ensure that their offices and suites were built as close to the chambers as possible. The Senate's interior was hued in lavender, the only color that has never been associated with war, anger or mourning in any of the myriad cultures found within its walls. Each Senatorial delegation was afforded huge banks of office space customized to the native environments of each culture. A total of 1,024 repulsorlift platforms lined the interior space of the Senate rotunda. The Senate was divided into many committees and subcommittees, each to handle various issues of Galactic government and lawmaking.

The Military Creation Act

The Military Creation Act was a bill proposed in the Galactic Senate ten years after the Battle of Naboo. Written in response to the growing number of worlds seceding from the Galactic Republic, and the rise of political hostility to the central authority on Coruscant, the act was meant to reestablish a formal military within the structure of the Republic, which had been scaled down considerably after the New Sith Wars. Prior to the act, the security of the Republic was maintained through local police, the operation of the Jedi Order and their coordinating activities with the Judicial Department, a branch of the Office of the Supreme Chancellor. It remains unknown which Senator originally proposed the act, though it drew much support from Orn Free Taa of Ryloth, Aks Moe of Malastare, and Onaconda Farr of Rodia. Opposition was led by Padmé Amidala of Naboo. However, the bill was never officially brought to a vote, as the discovery of a Separatist military on Geonosis spurred the remaining Loyalist Senators to grant Chancellor Palpatine emergency powers, which he used to create a Grand Army of the Republic based on the clone troopers of Kamino.

Palpatine

When Palpatine became Chancellor, he promised to reunite the disaffected, and bring order and justice to the government. Despite Palpatine's vocal promises of reform, the Republic continued to be mired in strife and chaos. Palpatine also maintained his private apartment at 500 Republica as his main residence, but as was customary, he also moved into the Chancellor's Suite in the Senate Office Building. Exercising the traditional prerogative to decorate the office as he saw fit, he purged all traces of Finis Valorum from it and made it practically a mirror image of his senatorial apartment. The color of blue, that had been Valorum's preference, was banished. Within weeks, no one who had spent any time in the Suite during the Valorum government would have recognized it. The color red now dominated the décor. There were also bronzium statues of Sistros, Faya, Yanjon, and Braata, the Four Sages of Dwartii, the controversial quartet of philosopher-lawgivers who lived in the early days of the Republic. But there were two most favored pieces which Palpatine brought in. The first was a new Chair of Office, black, thronelike, armored with ultradense lanthanide alloy. The second, and even more important piece, was the neuranium sculpture of Sistros. It was at this time that there first appeared the controversial and crimson-robed Chancellor's Guard, or simply Red Guard, supplanting the blue-robed Senate Guard, who were removed from the Chancellor's protection detail and now relegated to the protection of Senators only. A personal guard for a chief of state was seen as a violation of the Republic's values, and as such, some in the Senate were bound to object. But it was final; the Red Guard were here to stay. A decade after his nomination, Palpatine's Chancellery was faced with the challenge of a popular Separatist movement led by the charismatic leader, Count Dooku. Many in the galaxy feared that the conflict would escalate to full-scale warfare, but Palpatine was adamant that the crisis could be resolved by negotiation. The Separatists didn't agree. Upon the discovery of a secret army of droids, it became apparent that the Separatists were on the verge of declaring war against the Republic. To counter this, the Republic needed a military, and Palpatine required the authority to activate the Republic's newly forged army of clones. To that end, Senators loyal to Palpatine motioned that the Chancellor be given emergency powers to deal with the Separatist threat. With spoken regrets, Palpatine accepted the new mantle of power. He promised to return his absolute authority to the Senate after the emergency subsided. The Jedi were destroyed, the Senate disbanded, and in almost no time at all, the Republic was transformed into the first Galactic Empire.

Mas Amedda

Mas Amedda was the Vice Chair of the Galactic Senate during Chancellor Valorum's term, a position he continued to hold when Chancellor Palpatine rose to power. Mas Amedda was a Chagrian male, with well-developed lethorns draped from his shoulders. His pale blue skin screened out the harmful radiation of his native sun. Amedda's office was rife with scandal. He was accused of misusing his parliamentary powers for bribes, though Amedda stood firm to his own code of honor. A connoisseur of fine art and antiquity, one of Amedda's roles in Palpatine's office was to locate and secure rare treasures from around the galaxy.

Sly Moore

Sly Moore's taciturn demeanor kept her inner agenda unknown to most of her colleagues, though it was whispered that she possessed a very strong ambitious drive. Some gossiped that she somehow eliminated Sei Taria from public office, paving her ascent to the Supreme Chancellor's side, though nothing conclusive has ever come to light. Moore's enigmatic countenance derived from her Umbaran heritage. She was from a breed of near-humans hailing from a shadowed planet deep in the Ghost Nebula. Umbarans have an eerie reputation for being able to influence - perhaps even control - the minds of others. Moore's piercing gaze could only see in the ultraviolet spectrum, and her seemingly colorless shadowcloak was in actuality adorned with intricate patterns visible only to beings similarly sighted.

Padmé Amidala

Padmé Amidala became a Senator after her two terms as Queen expired. She became the leader of a faction opposed to the establishment of an army to quell the Confederacy of Independent Systems (also known as the Separatists) and its army of droids. After a failed attempt on her life (which was later revealed to have been organized by her old enemy Nute Gunray, the former Viceroy of the Trade Federation), Obi-Wan and his apprentice Anakin were assigned to protect her. After yet another attempt on her life, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine requested that Padmé go away on vacation on Naboo, seemingly out of harm's way under the protection of young Skywalker. Anakin had been nurturing a powerful infatuation with Padmé over the last decade, and after some time together on pastoral Naboo, he broke down and confessed his love for her. Padmé initially rejected him, disturbed by his intense anger and belief in the need for one strong leader, even if it meant forsaking the democratic principles that she stood for. Over time, however, she grew to return his feelings, much to her own surprise. However, she fought her attraction to him as much as she could, as they were both duty-bound to keep their relationship platonic: Jedi are forbidden to form emotional attachments, and a romance with one could endanger her position in the Senate. When Obi-Wan was kidnapped by Separatist leader Count Dooku on Geonosis, Padmé and Anakin rushed to his aid - only to get themselves captured and condemned to death in a public execution. Moments away from certain death, Anakin and Padmé declared their love for each other. In the arena, Padmé managed to hold her own against the killing beasts long enough for Jedi Masters Mace Windu and Yoda, along with a cadre of Jedi warriors, to come to the rescue. They burst into the arena to fight Dooku's army in the Battle of Geonosis, the opening salvo of the Clone Wars. There, Padmé continued to show herself more handy in combat than might be expected of a politician, more than holding her own alongside the great Jedi warriors. After the battle, Padmé and Anakin were taken to Coruscant, where Skywalker received a cybernetic replacement for the arm he lost dueling Dooku. Anakin was then assigned to escort Padmé to Naboo, where they wed in a secret ceremony attended only by R2-D2 and C-3PO.

Naboo Royal Cruiser

The Naboo Royal Cruiser was a starship used by the royalty of Naboo for diplomatic transport. Designed by the Theed Palace Space Vessel Engineering Corps, the craft succeeded the Naboo Royal Starship as primary transport for Naboo's queen and royal entourage. To remedy prior design flaws, the new vessel was fitted with improved deflector shield generators and multiple backup S-6 hyperdrive generators, ensuring hyperspace ability and crew safety while retaining the high speed and sleek aerodynamics that exemplified its predecessor. In accordance with Naboo custom for diplomatic ships, the Royal Cruiser was unarmed, instead relying on its high speed, powerful shields, and fighter escort to escape enemy fire. Because of the limited range of most escort fighters, the cruiser was equipped with four under-wing recharge sockets for use by N-1 starfighters during long voyages.

Naboo Yacht

The Naboo Yacht was the personal craft and royal starship of Padmé Amidala. It was a customized H-type Nubian yacht and was employed as a getaway vessel, being the smallest non-fighter craft in the Theed Hangars, though much faster than most civilian ships. It featured a powerful shield system, an array of electronic countermeasures, a slim, narrow profile and sheltered engines giving a small sensor signature for evading pursuits and an escape pod. The vessel was unarmed in accordance with the peaceful culture of Naboo. The yacht only required a small crew and Padmé could pilot the ship on her own from the cockpit in the central area of the yacht's upper section. Below the cockpit were maintenance consoles, the class 0.9 Nubian 150 hyperdrive core and stores to contain supplies and astromech droids. The lower and upper levels were connected by a turbolift platform, situated before the lounge and crew bunks on the upper level. At the front section of the upper level was Padmé's bedroom which could serve as a portable throne room.

Captain Typho

Captain Typho was Senator Amidala's head of security. Typho was the nephew of Captain Panaka, who had served Amidala when she was Queen. Striving for stronger security measures, Typho adopted several of his uncle's unfailing practices, including the use of disguised decoy "handmaidens" to protect the Senator. He sustained injuries and lost his eye in the Battle of Naboo, but was recognized for his service and made his uncle Panaka proud. Typho was raised to his Senatorial post because of his uncompromising loyalty and familial connections.

Cordé

Cordé was a handmaiden and double for Senator Amidala of Naboo. Cordé replaced Amidala's former bodyguard, Sabé, who was a decoy while Amidala was Queen of Naboo. Cordé was killed in an assassination attempt on Amidala when she returned to Coruscant for the Senate vote on the Military Creation Act. She died apologizing to Amidala. She felt that she had failed her duty to the Senator.

Dormé was one of the most devoted handmaidens of Padmé Amidala during her time as a senator of the Galactic Republic. After Padmé Amidala stepped down from her position of Queen of Naboo, and transitioned to Senatorial representative, she kept some of the trappings of her former office. A cadre of loyal "handmaidens" tended to her, serving as bodyguards and trusted confidants during trying times. Dormé was the most devoted of her aides, and held a deep concern for the Senator's safety. Watching quietly at all times, Dormé noticed the growing affection between Padmé and Anakin Skywalker prior to their departure from the capital.

Jar Jar Binks

Jar Jar Binks eventually became a Senior Representative for Naboo, serving alongside Padmé Amidala in the Galactic Senate. While his compassion spoke volumes of the quality of his character, his inherent gullibility and trusting nature were easily exploited by the less scrupulous in the field of politics. For many, Jar Jar was but a joke, the subject of derision, but in the corrupt inner confines of the Senate, his lanky frame stood as a rare example of a non-corrupt politician interested only in the greater good of the Republic and his people. Jar Jar was a member of the Loyalist Committee, a panel of Senators concerned with countering the increasing threat of a Separatist movement spreading throughout the galaxy. He and Padmé worked hard, favoring negotiation and peaceful resolution over the growing popularity of the Military Creation Act. While Padmé was away from Coruscant, it was Jar Jar who took her place in the Senate. After several botched assassination attempts on Senator Amidala forced her to flee the capital, Jar Jar again served in her stead. The Gungan politician was there, in Palpatine's office, when it became apparent that desperate measures would be required to stop a Separatist force determined to start a war with the Republic. Jar Jar took the initiative and proposed the motion granting emergency powers to Supreme Chancellor Palpatine - a move that would have profound impact on the Galactic Republic.

Bail Organa

Royal Highness, Prince Bail Prestor Organa of Alderaan was the Viceroy and Prince of Alderaan, the husband of Queen Breha Organa. A pragmatic man, Organa was nonetheless compassionate and championed benevolent causes such as the Refugee Relief Movement. With his approval, Alderaan loosened its immigration restrictions to allow an influx of refugees displaced by the growing Separatist crisis that preceded the Clone Wars. He was vocally critical of policies that targeted the downtrodden, such as a Senate-approved transit tax that made it difficult for refugees to resettle. A member of the Loyalist Committee, Bail Organa was deeply concerned with the stability of the Republic during the Separatist crisis. He realized that drastic measures were required if the Separatists continued to push the galaxy to the brink of war. While he recognized the need for the Senate to take ownership of the newly discovered Kamino clone army, he knew it was a political impossibility. Though it was not his recommendation, he stood by and watched as Palpatine was granted emergency powers to save the Republic from this dire threat.

Ister Paddie

Ister Paddie was a member of Sermeria's nobility, ascending from the Sermerian First House to join the ranks of the Galactic Senate. He carried with him the regal airs of his homeworld, including his orthodox Halbara hairstyle and his golden robes. Paddie was a strong supporter of Chancellor Palpatine, being one of the first Senators named to the Loyalist Committee. He was vocally critical of the Corellian withdrawal from the Military Creation Act vote prior to the Clone Wars.

Lexi Dio

Senator Lexi Dio was a Loyalist Senator close to the office of Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. One of the initial members of the Loyalist Committee, Senator Dio represented a peaceful agri-world known for a strong streak of independence from big government. To that end, she was believed to have been against the Military Creation Act vote, as most of her citizenry felt that such an act would place too much power at the disposal of the Republic government. During the Clone Wars, Lexi Dio was assassinated. Her position was filled by Malé-Dee, from the Visdic province of Uyter.

Ask Aak

A three-eyed Gran from Malastare, Senator Ask Aak was a member of the Loyalist Committee determined to keep the Republic from fragmenting under the strain of Separatist forces. The political career of Aak's predecessor, Aks Moe, left much of the Gran Protectorate mired in scandal and with no shortage of enemies. Malastare was plagued with social strife stemming from the second-class treatment of its native Dug citizenry. Dug activists even disrupted what was to be a placid, respectful funeral for the fallen Moe. Following Moe's death, Senator Ask Aak was sworn into office in his place. With the indelible example of danger set by Moe's murder, Aak became an even more vocal champion of the Military Creation Act than Moe was.

Orn Free Taa

Orn Free Taa was a Twi'lek of Rutian descent, with blue-tinted skin and enormous head-tails which stored his excess fat. A former tax collector, he was the leader of the Rim faction of senators; as such, he advocated lessening the Republic's interference in local affairs. Taa was a member of the Allocations, Appropriations, and Loyalist Committees. He was one of the biggest supporters of the Military Creation Act (which was counter to the Twi'lek's cultural disdain of violence).

Onaconda Farr was a Rodian, and a senator from Rodia. He was one of the senators who supported Finis Valorum's sanctions against the Yinchorri. He was very critical of Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, and a proponent of the Military Creation Act. Prior to the vote, Farr, in a Senate session, released a "list of 245" individuals he accused of Separatist ties, including Loyalist Committee member Havriso Looruya. Though the Senate protested this, the Judicial Department confirmed that the charge against Looruya was indeed legitimate. Farr replaced Looruya on the Committee. As of the Battle of Geonosis, Farr was made chairman of the Senate Action Subcommittee for Corellian Trade Spine Defense.

Chapter Two: The Jedi Order

"We are keepers of the peace, not soldiers." — Jedi Master Mace Windu

Jedi are the guardians of peace in the galaxy. Jedi use their powers to defend and to protect. Jedi respect all life, in any form. Jedi serve others rather than ruling over them, for the good of the galaxy. Jedi seek to improve themselves through knowledge and training. (the Jedi code) The Jedi Order has its origins in the earliest days of the Republic. The Jedi spent centuries contemplating the mysterious field known as the Force. They became masters at manipulating this energy and chose to use their skills for good and to help those in need. For more than 25,000 years, the Jedi served as peacekeepers of the Galactic Republic. Becoming a Jedi required the most profound commitment and astute mind. The life of a Jedi was one of sacrifice. Those who showed an aptitude for the Force were taken directly from birth (or soon afterward) to train in the Jedi Temple headquarters on Coruscant. From the beginning of their training a Jedi was expected to adhere to a strict Code that included concepts such as rational thought, patience, and benevolence. Emotions such as hate, anger, and fear were thought to be destructive and lead to the dark side, so such things were banned from Jedi practice. The Jedi Code was a mantra that served to reinforce the teachings of the Jedi.

The Jedi Code

• There is no emotion, there is peace: A Jedi must show no emotion, must be individual, must not feel love, hate or anger. Attachment to another being is dangerous. "The shadow of greed that is". If a Jedi was attached to a being who is lost, the Jedi might start feeling sorrow, pain and, most important, a will for vengeance or hate.
• There is no ignorance, there is knowledge: A Jedi must be circumspecting, trying to understand the world that surrounds him. A Jedi must always be open to knowledge. Knowledge can be a means to victory anytime.
• There is no passion, there is serenity: A Jedi must always try to find a peaceful solution. No lives were to be extinguished unless it was inevitable. Knowledge and patience were often the means to avoid combat, as well as skill in the Force.
• There is no chaos, there is harmony: Whatever a Jedi does must be thought through and well-planned. When more than one Jedi is on a mission or in combat, they must always co-operate, fighting for one another and trying to find the means to protect all fellow Force users.
• There is no death, there is the Force: Nothing dies. When a Jedi was slain or a non Force-sensitive being "died", it became part of the universe and continued to live as that.

The strength of the Jedi Code and organization rested on three core tenets:

• Self-discipline
• Knowledge, as contained in the Archives
• The Force

When used correctly, these allowed a Jedi to solve any problem and overcome any obstacle, helping to make the Galaxy a better place. One of the main focuses of the Jedi Order was the study of the Force: an "energy field" that emanated from every living thing. The Jedi sought to understand the Force so that they could use its power to protect and aid the people that they served. The Jedi believed that the Force could be harnessed through careful study and contemplation to benefit the user and the world around them. As they studied the light side of the Force, the Jedi encouraged their members only to use the Force for healing and defense - never in anger or fear. Unfortunately, several of the Jedi Order disagreed with this view, arguing that other, darker uses of the Force should be allowed. This disagreement was one of the main issues the Jedi faced in their constant battle with the Sith. The dark side of the Force brought with it a great temptation for many Jedi; to many, the dark side seemed a quicker and easier path. Pursuit of the dark side, however, was a self-destructive endeavor, and many Jedi who tasted dark powers found it harder and harder to turn away. Though some Jedi could be redeemed back to the path of the light, many fell and became Dark Jedi, some of whom were members of the Sith Order. For this reason, practice of dark Force powers was expressly forbidden by the Jedi Council.

The Chosen One Prophecy

"And in the time of greatest despair, there shall come a savior, and he shall be known as: THE SON OF THE SUNS."

According to the ancient Jedi prophecy as written in the Journal of the Whills, a life-form would be conceived by midi-chlorians, charged with the destiny of bringing balance to the Force. Some members of the Jedi Order believed that the prophecy referred to young Anakin Skywalker. They supported this claim with several arguments: First, Skywalker had the highest midi-chlorian count ever recorded. It was above the limit of twenty thousand, at which the midi-chlorian level could be measured. Second, Anakin might have been conceived by the Force itself, as his mother claimed that there was no father. Third, he came from a world with two suns, a literal translation of the line, The Son of the Suns, although he might not have been born on Tatooine, just raised there. Even with all the signs, some members of the Jedi Council doubted that the young Padawan of Obi-Wan Kenobi could bring the Force back into balance. However, there was one person in Anakin's life that didn't doubt his abilities and believed he was destined for great things, if the Council would stop holding him back. That person was Supreme Chancellor Palpatine.

The Jedi offer their counsel to the Supreme Chancellor.

A Jedi's Career

As the Jedi instructed their members in the ways of the Jedi Code and the Force, each member progressed through four basic levels of rank:

• Jedi Initiate (or Youngling) — a Force-sensitive child. At a very young age, children were removed from their families and assigned to the Jedi Temple for training. Younglings were taught in communal groups known as clans.
• Jedi Padawan — an apprentice who began serious tutelage under a single Jedi Knight or Jedi Master. In order to graduate to Padawan status, an Initiate was required to be chosen by a Knight or Master and taken as their sole pupil. If a youngling was not chosen to be a Padawan by 13 years of age, the youngling was placed into another, lesser role in the Jedi Service Corps. Depending on where the student's talents lay, this might be the Agricultural Corps, the Medical Corps, or the Exploration Corps. Human Padawans typically wore a long braid of hair behind their right ear. When a Padawan was elevated to Knighthood the braid was cut during the knighting ceremony. (At least a few Jedi, though, were elevated to Knighthood simply by being told that they had passed whatever trials were considered necessary - most notably Obi-Wan Kenobi.) Some exceptions of late acceptances to Padawan training were made, most notably in the case of Anakin Skywalker.

Training Lightsaber

Model: Training Lightsaber
Type: Melee weapon
Scale: Character
Cost: 1,500
Availability: 4, X
Difficulty: Difficult
Damage: 5D (see notes)
Game Notes: A training lightsaber is in most respects like a standard lightsaber, with a few exceptions. Firstly, while the blade can be used to block blaster bolts (with the Lightsaber Combat Force power), these bolts cannot be deflected at targets. It is also much less lethal than a standard lightsaber, and can only inflict a maximum damage result of "Wounded" to any target struck (any result greater than "Wounded" is treated as a Wounded result). Last of all, training lightsabers do not focus their power strongly enough to cut through objects. When used against inanimate objects, the damage of a training lightsaber is reduced to 2D. If an attacking character misses the difficulty number by more than 10 points (the base difficulty; not their opponent's parry total), the character has injured himself with the lightsaber.

Bear Clan trains under Master Yoda.

• Jedi Knight — a disciplined Padawan could become a fully trained Jedi once they completed "the trials".
• Jedi Master — a Jedi Knight who showed great understanding of the Force and managed to instruct a Padawan and train them successfully to the level of a Jedi Knight. This title could also be achieved through the performance of extraordinary deeds. Self-proclamation of the Jedi Master title was rare and frowned upon by the Jedi Council.
• Jedi Grand Master was the title given to the acknowledged leader of the entire order. Yoda held this title during the waning years of the Jedi Order.

A Jedi Knight or Jedi Master could have only one apprentice at a time, and the Padawan had to be promoted to the rank of Jedi Knight before another apprentice could be chosen. The Jedi Trials were the challenges by which a Jedi Padawan was tested to see if they were ready for Knighthood. There were four trials:

• The first is a Trial of Skill, which usually consisted of a lightsaber duel with either another person or a manifestation of the Dark Side.
• The second is a Trial of the Flesh; examples of this are Anakin Skywalker losing his arm, Jedi Master Yaddle being kept captive for several decades, and possibly Obi-Wan Kenobi losing his master.
• Thirdly is The Trial of Courage, where a Padawan on the path to Knighthood would go through a test to put his fears to the test. Some of the ways to prove your courage was by fighting in a strong battle, completing a mission no matter how low the chances of survival were, or facing against an enemy that a Knight knew would most likely defeat them. Doing something on the line of this would also signify if a Padawan was ready for the Jedi Trials.
• And lastly is The Trial of the Spirit (Facing the Mirror). A Padawan would have to look deep within themselves, and see what they were truly made of. Oftentimes, the Padawan did not like what they saw, and it could be a highly traumatic experience.

The Jedi Temple

For at least 4,000 years, Jedi activity in the galaxy had been centered at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. From the outside, the Jedi Temple appeared as a high-raised ziggurat building in a stepped design, with five spires built on top, one taller spire surrounded by four smaller ones. These spires symbolized a Jedi's climb to enlightenment. Its design suggested that of a fortress, but for more than forty generations, it had stood as a symbol of peace and justice. The tallest Central Spire was known as the Temple Spire, and was traditionally the most important, since it held the ancient texts of the Founding Jedi, and those scrolls saved from Ossus. The official status of Knighthood, and Master were given in this spire. The first of the four smaller spires was where the twelve members of the High Council sat and debated the various facets of the Republic. This was the most important tower because the High Council had overall decision-making powers over the whole Jedi Order, and, thus, quite a bit of influence in the Galactic Republic. The next tower was that used by the Council of First Knowledge. This council took care of matters requiring the wisdom of past Jedi Masters or Council members, and gave advice to the High Council, or most any Jedi who requested it. The third spire was the Council of Reconciliation Tower, which sought to find peaceful settlements to political disputes at home on Coruscant or offworld in the Republic. The fourth and last spire was the Reassignment Council Tower, which handled the organization of work for young Jedi who had not been chosen by Jedi Masters to be apprentices. Each of these five spires carried high-gain communication transmitters, used to contact field Jedi or other offworlders as required by any of the four Councils. This explains the Temple's position high above any other buildings, where there was little or no interference with the antennas. The Temple itself was the home to the Jedi, where they lived for the first years of their apprenticeship, and where they learned of the ways of the Force and trained in the traditions of the Jedi Order. The inner Temple housed many different areas, including where Jedi Masters trained Younglings and where Jedi learned and developed their skills with the lightsaber, or areas that simply provided meditation space, as well as dormitories. The Temple's network of communication systems was controlled in the computer room; it held the Jedi beacon that allowed speedy contact between the Temple and Jedi without having to use the HoloNet. The Temple was surrounded by an extensive Precinct, which also offered docking space for larger spaceships, and contained other buildings built after the construction of the Temple.

Jedi Starfighter

The Temple also provided independent transport for any Jedi who needed it. The recently constructed Temple Hangars housed the Delta-7 Jedi Starfighters, capable of transporting Jedi anywhere in the Galaxy, which were launched from an extendible platform. Some of these new crafts, introduced after the blockade at Naboo, were assigned to a particular Jedi, while others were for general use.

The Delta-7 Aethersprite-class light interceptor, more commonly known as the Jedi Starfighter, was a starfighter from around the time of the Clone Wars. An evolution over the ancient Republic fighter, it was a small, sleek interceptor used by the Jedi Knights for reconnaissance missions. However, the starfighter was fitted with two twin-barrel laser cannons allowing the pilot to fight when necessary. Stationed in the hangar bays of the Jedi Temple on Coruscant and other facilities, Aethersprites were assigned to all field Jedi. As part of the Republic's Judicial Department, the starfighters owned by the Jedi Order were colored in the red and white hues that represented the diplomatic immunity that the Jedi enjoyed. The Aethersprite was too small for a hyperdrive, instead relying on other spacecraft or an external hyperdrive ring for faster-than-light travel. The size of the craft also would not allow for a factory model astromech droid navigator, as future starfighters such as the X-wing used. Instead, astromech droids were integrated directly into the starfighter, with only the droids' truncated heads visible. The Delta-series pre-dated the Jedi's use of the Delta-7, which came into service shortly before the Clone Wars. The Delta-6 starfighter was used previously by the Jedi, and the Delta-12 Skysprite was in operation during the launch of the Outbound Flight Project. Jedi Master Adi Gallia flight-tested a Delta-7 prototype.

Docking with the ring takes 3 rounds to accomplish, and requires a Difficult starfighter piloting skill check (the fighter's maneuverability counts for this roll). Additionally, the Delta-7 incorporates a specially-designed astromech droid (R4-P series), which is hardwired into the starfighter. Without the proper droid, the pilot suffers a -1D penalty to his astrogation skill checks. The droid suffers the same penalty to both its astrogation and starfighter repair skill checks.

The Jedi Archives

Whether it was a Padawan Learner or a Jedi Master, all Jedi relied on the same source for knowledge and research: the Jedi Archives. The Jedi Archives was a fathomless collection of ancient knowledge and research dating back possibly thousands of standard years. The Archives Library was located in the upper levels of the Temple's main body, under the control of Madame Jocasta Nu, a former Jedi Council member. The Archives covered a vast range of criteria, including details on supposedly every planet and species in the Galactic Republic. They also included Diagnostic Laboratories and held the Jedi Holocrons. After the world of Ossus was devastated, the Jedi removed the contents of the Great Library of Odan-Urr to the archives on Coruscant. The Archives were said to have dangerous knowledge of The Force. Just before the Battle of Geonosis, information had been emptied from the Jedi Archives concerning the planet Kamino. It was done by former Jedi Master Count Dooku, in order to conceal the creation of the Clone Army from the Jedi Council. This was uncovered by Obi-Wan Kenobi when he tried to identify the origin of Senator Amidala's attacker, who had used Kaminoan saber darts. This eventually led to the uncovering of the Separatists' plans for war, and the beginning of the Clone Wars. Yoda investigated the missing planet Kamino from the Archives and found at least 30 additional systems that had been erased, like Dagobah and Dromund Kaas. Also under the jurisdiction of the Temple Archives were the Analysis Rooms. They were used by Jedi for many tasks, including locating the provenance of alien objects, either organic or inorganic. SP-4 and JN-66 analysis droids that staffed the facility could access the computer system of the Jedi Archives to match identification indices. Their multispectral readers and polysensitive graspers detected even the slightest odor traces. The room was therefore hermetically sealed to humans or aliens, so no contamination could occur that would cause false readings from the highly sensitive equipment.

SP-4 Analysis Droid

The SP-4 droid was a variety of analysis droid used in the laboratories of the Jedi Temple. While the SP-4 was fairly intelligent on its own, wireless tie lines to the computers of the Jedi Temple gave it access to lore gathered from across the galaxy. When dealing with organics, it conveyed information through a mouth-stalk like vocodor that suggested that a Pa'lowick was on the SP-4's design team. During Obi-Wan Kenobi's investigation of a mysterious toxic dart fired by Padmé Amidala's would-be assassin, he consulted with an SP-4 droid. The droid cross-referenced the sophisticated sensor findings with the Jedi Temple's exhaustive database of known weapon types and cultures, and was unable to determine a match.

JN-66 Analysis Droid

Cybot Galactica crafted the JN-66 at the higher end of their spectrum of utility droids. These mechanicals possessed many of the same components as their less sophisticated PK-unit cousins, and were shipped standard with empty logic ports and sensor-cradles to allow for easy modification and customizations. Much of the framework also served Cybot Galactica IM-6 series of field medicine droid. The units kept by the Jedi Temple had advanced brains and sensor apparatus that multiplied the base price of droid considerably. The quadruple array of photoreceptors allowed for multi-wavelength imaging at extreme levels of magnification. Its gleaming surface was stripped of coverings to allow better penetration of its frequent sterilizing radiation baths. Its paired repulsor-field projectors ensured that it never touched a contaminated surface.

Yoda

Yoda was a respected senior member of the Jedi Council. Serving alongside such luminaries as Mace Windu and Ki-Adi-Mundi, Yoda was present during the turbulent events that would eventually unravel the centuries-old Republic and seal the fate of the Jedi Order. Yoda served an important role in the Jedi Council. When young Padawans began their first foray into Jedi training, they did so under Yoda's guidance. Many of the Republic's greatest Jedi trained under Yoda when they were children - schooled in groupings called clans. Once the Jedi hopefuls grew older, approaching their teenage years, they would then be paired to an elder Jedi Knight or Master to continue training one-on-one. The pall of the dark side fell over the Republic during its twilight years, and Yoda grew increasingly concerned. The emergence of the dark side created a disturbance in the Force strong enough to cloud the Jedi's insights into important matters. Sensing the grave uncertainty of the future, Yoda recognized the need for answers. The Jedi Council dispatched Obi-Wan Kenobi to investigate an assassination attempt apparently carried out by Separatist forces. What he found was all the more troubling. An entire clone army had been secretly created for the Republic, by decree of a late Jedi, Sifo-Dyas. None in the Council knew of this development, nor had they foreseen it. Further investigation revealed that the Separatists were gearing up for war. Count Dooku, one of Yoda's former Padawans, was consolidating a military force out of the droid armies of the commerce guilds. Something needed to be done. Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, newly granted emergency powers, took possession of the Clone Army, and ordered the Jedi into action. Yoda voyaged to the distant world of Kamino to gather the newly created Republic Military, and arrived on Geonosis to rescue the survivors of an ill-fated Jedi taskforce. As Republic clones engaged Separatist droids, the Clone Wars began. Yoda, acting as general, oversaw the battle from the forward command center. The clones handily defeated the Separatists on Geonosis, but many escaped. Yoda followed his instincts to a darkened hangar where Count Dooku had grievously wounded Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker. Yoda and Dooku engaged in battle. First, their powers in the Force were put to test, as Dooku attempted to crush the tiny Jedi Master with hurled debris. Yoda easily deflected such assaults, and even repulsed Dooku's Force lightning attacks. The contest came down to a duel of lightsabers. In a climactic battle, the two master combatants displayed amazing speed and agility. Yoda, empowered by the Force, leaped through the air, twirling and battering at Dooku's defenses. Dooku only managed to escape by using the Force to once again jeopardize Anakin and Obi-Wan. Knowing that Yoda's nobility would buy him time, Dooku fled as the ancient Jedi Master saved his younger compatriots. This first battle of the Clone Wars was a victory for the Republic, but Yoda was troubled. Too much had been clouded by the dark side, and the judgment of the Jedi Order was perhaps sullied by complacency and arrogance. Not only had many Jedi died on Geonosis, but the very nature of death itself was now unclear to the wise old master. While meditating, Yoda had felt a traumatic event befall young Anakin Skywalker. At that very moment, he also heard the voice of Qui-Gon Jinn, a Jedi Master slain a decade previous. It was impossible for a Jedi to retain his identity after becoming one with the Force, yet he had heard it. It was another dangerous and disturbing puzzle for Yoda to solve while the Republic collapsed around him. Through meditation, he was able to commune with the spirit of Qui-Gon Jinn. The dead Jedi Master had discovered an esoteric yet powerful technique to preserve identity even after death. A Force ability honed outside the Jedi Order, this method was developed by a Shaman of the Whills.

Mace Windu

Mace Windu was originally from the planet Haruun Kal. Windu was a senior member of the Jedi Council. His wisdom and power were legendary, as was the weight of his words. He was an excellent chief mentor and considered a wise and powerful Jedi Master of the Jedi Order. He created Vaapad, a dueling technique within the seventh form of lightsaber combat which contained certain elements of dark side practices. Only Windu, his former student Depa Billaba, and legendary lightsaber instructor Sora Bulq ever mastered this eclectic form. It is said that Yoda and Count Dooku were the only ones who could ever outspar him. There is speculation by some, however, that Windu may have been outsparred as a teenager by his older and more experienced Jedi friends, like Ki-Adi-Mundi, Qui-Gon Jinn, and Plo Koon. And by his own admission, he considered Obi-Wan Kenobi "the" master of Soresu. Windu, a diplomat by nature, believed in the power of words over action. But as the galaxy found itself increasingly fragmented by the rise of a powerful secessionist movement, he grew to question some of his firmest held beliefs. He thought it impossible that the Separatist leader, former Jedi Count Dooku, could be behind the escalating flashpoints of violence in the galaxy. Such aggression was not in his character, Mace reasoned. When an intelligence report from Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi revealed the Separatists gearing up for war, Windu came to realize that the time for negotiation had passed. Though he reminded the Supreme Chancellor that the Jedi were peacekeepers and not soldiers, as the Clone Wars began, the Jedi found themselves leading platoons of clone troopers into battle. Reversals such as these troubled Master Windu, for they came about too suddenly, and the usually prescient Jedi were unprepared. Something was clouding the future, and the order's very connection to the Force was weakening. That a Sith Lord existed somewhere in the galaxy was not in doubt, but could this shadowy villain really bring this much imbalance to the Force? At the first engagement on Geonosis, Windu arrived ahead of the clone trooper army with a Jedi taskforce. He was there to free the Jedi held captive by Count Dooku. In the battle that ensued, Windu faced Dooku's hired gun, bounty hunter Jango Fett. Though Fett had proven himself deadly against other Jedi, he was no match against Windu. The Jedi Master repeatedly deflected Jango's incoming blasts, and quickly decapitated the hunter with his lightsaber. As the Clone Wars erupted on Geonosis, Windu led a special squad of commando clone troopers into the thick of battle. He would be one of the few Jedi to return unscathed from that first engagement... at least physically. His spirit would suffer in the years that followed.

Ki-Adi-Mundi

Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi served on the Jedi Council. He was present during one of the gravest crises ever to face the Jedi Order: the Separatist movement that threatened to split the Republic. Like most in the order, Ki-Adi-Mundi refused to believe that the movement's architect, former Jedi Count Dooku, was behind its more violent actions. As a political idealist trained in Jedi philosophies, such acts would be beneath Dooku, Ki-Adi-Mundi reasoned. Ki-Adi-Mundi was not the only Jedi to be mistaken about Dooku's limits. The former Jedi oversaw the scheduled execution of Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker and Senator Padmé Amidala. The sudden arrival of a Jedi taskforce - including Ki-Adi-Mundi - rescued the three captives. Ki-Adi-Mundi and several of his fellow Jedi Council members did battle with Geonosian and Separatist droid forces. While the Jedi were prepared to handle the Geonosians, they were surprised by the immensity of the Separatist droid army. Many Jedi died that day, though Ki-Adi-Mundi was one of the survivors. When Republic reinforcements arrived, Ki-Adi-Mundi hopped aboard a Republic gunship, and later led units of clone troopers into the thick of combat.

The Tale of Sifo-Dyas

Sifo-Dyas was a Jedi Master from the planet of Esiken, who had the gift of foresight. He had predicted the coming war and knew the Republic would soon face dark times. Fearing that the Jedi had become just as corrupt as the senate, he decided to bypass the Jedi Council and go straight to the Supreme Chancellor. Once the Supreme Chancellor Palpatine was informed of Sifo's predictions, he saw the opening he had been searching for. Palpatine manipulated and duped Sifo-Dyas into secretly commissioning a clone army on Kamino, in order to defend the Republic from this terrible vision.

Prior to these events, Count Dooku of Serenno, a close and personal friend of Sifo-Dyas, had left the Jedi Order and fallen in league with Darth Sidious. He was told by the Sith Lord about Sifo-Dyas' actions, and Sidious also revealed his plans to use the clone army for their own ends. As a final test of Dooku's allegiance to the Dark Side of the Force, the newly christened Darth Tyranus was to murder his close friend Sifo-Dyas. When the opportunity arose, Dooku murdered Sifo-Dyas in his sleep, and then took control of the clone project for himself. It was Sidious' true intention to use Sifo-Dyas only as a dead-end cover for Palpatine's order of a clone army. Sidious had just one more request for his new apprentice and that was to save the lightsaber of the fallen Jedi Master and keep his body frozen, until the time came for Master Sifo-Dyas to fulfill one more favor for the Sith Lord.

When Obi-Wan Kenobi traveled to Kamino to investigate the source of the dart that silenced Padmé's attempted killer, Zam Wesell, the Kaminoan prime minister Lama Su informed him that Sifo-Dyas had ordered the creation of a clone army on Kamino at the request of the Senate, in order to help the Galactic Republic. The Jedi Council was not aware of the order until Kenobi informed them of it after his meeting with the Kaminoans.

Plo Koon

Plo Koon was a Kel Dor from the planet Dorin whose well-muscled humanoid form filled out his Jedi robes. His physiology was such that he wore protective goggles and his face-concealing antiox mask whenever in oxygen-rich environments. As a Kel Dor, Koon naturally possessed highly developed extrasensory organs that supplemented his already formidable Jedi attributes. His species tended to see issues in black and white, and favored what was termed "rough justice", a method of solving disputes that to non-Kel Dor seemed overly retributive and too close to vigilantism. Somewhat controversially, Plo Koon employed a Force technique that he called "Electric Judgement". This seemed overly harsh in comparison to his fellow Jedi. A skilled and adept warrior, he fought many battles during his career. Plo hailed from a long Kel Dor Jedi dynasty, including an uncle and Plo Koon's own niece, Sha Koon, who fought in the war, as well. Plo was a master of the powerful Form V lightsaber combat. Also, Master Plo Koon possessed an extensive knowledge of the physical sciences. In particular, he used his expert knowledge of physics along with the Force to alter the environment: the resourceful Jedi could create whirlwinds as well as a dense fog over a limited area, freeze rivers and lakes, and raise or lower the temperature of his surroundings enough to incapacitate an opponent. He was a master of telekinesis, considering he could move objects without even having to face them. He wore talons over his fingertips, allowing him to further augment his already-prodigious Force powers. Koon was trained by the Wookiee Jedi Master Tyvokka. Plo Koon fought on Geonosis and aided Ki-Adi-Mundi in a failed attack on the droid control ship.

Saesee Tiin

Master Saesee Tiin appeared as a tall, peach-skinned humanoid with long, inwardly curved horns on each side of his head. His grim appearance made him a very intimidating figure in the Jedi Order. Saesee Tiin belonged to the Iktotchi race, with telepathic abilities and superb Force-enhanced piloting skills. Helming his SoroSuub Cutlass-9 craft, the Sharp Spiral, through the relentless winds of Iktotch taught him unparalleled control. Tiin was so in tune with his vessel, that he had no need of a navigational computer; he relied on the Force to instinctively astrogate his way through lightspeed. He also made one of the few successful in-system hyperspace jumps toward the close of the Battle of Geonosis. Secretly, his colleagues on the Jedi Council questioned his contributions to that body, as he sat in solemn silence. Despite their accusations, Master Tiin was firmly loyal to the Order. It seemed the death of his master, who would later visit him as a Force spirit, had deeply affected Tiin. He had a keen eye for flight technology and took considerable interest in Darth Maul's Sith Infiltrator when it was discovered on Naboo.

Shaak Ti

Shaak Ti was a Togruta, a humanoid species from the planet Shili. To protect themselves from the dangerous predators of their homeworld, the Togruta would band together in dense tribes and rely on their disruptive natural pigmentation patterns to confuse the slow-witted beasts. Shaak Ti was a notable exception to the communal-minded Togruta in that she preferred to operate alone. Nonetheless, her heritage was evident in the accuracy and agility she demonstrated when moving and fighting in bustling crowds. Aiding in her perception of her surroundings were hollow spaces in her montrals that gathered information ultrasonically. Her Jedi sense of detachment allowed her to hide her pain over the deaths of her two Padawans, who were murdered by vicious killers just after passing the trials. One of those students was Fe Sun. She met her untimely end at the hands of the Zeltron criminal Lyshaa. Master Ti was a very cunning warrior. She was among the Jedi sent to rescue Obi-Wan Kenobi on Geonosis which led to the Battle of Geonosis and the start of the Clone Wars. Unlike many Jedi who fell that day, Shaak Ti managed to survive.

Even Piell

The humorless and fierce Even Piell hailed from Lannik, a planet long plagued by violence. Corellian diplomats attempted to help the struggling world, but were ambushed by Red Iaro terrorists in the heart of the Lannik High Court. Even Piell came to their rescue, and single-handedly defeated seven attackers, though he lost his left eye in the melee. The daughter of the diplomats, the Jedi Adi Gallia, had long felt indebted to Piell. Piell carried his scar as a badge of pride and symbol of his honor, bravery and persistence. His fate is unknown.

Oppo Rancisis

A former student of fellow Council member Yaddle, Oppo Rancisis was a well-respected Jedi Master known for his unerring tactical mind and military expertise. His familial heritage earned him the title of Blood Monarch of Thisspias, though Rancisis denied the position, choosing instead to devote his life to the ways of the Force. His elegant strategies had allowed the Jedi to emerge victorious from several large-scale conflicts. Rancisis was a master of malacia, a Jedi technique that produced powerful dizziness and nausea in his targets. The results were incapacitating, though they did not cause any permanent physical damage. Rancisis trained fellow Jedi in this art, but few mastered it to his level of proficiency. Rancisis was 174 standard years old during the Battle of Naboo, an incredibly ancient age for a Thisspiasian. Among his exploits was serving as a fleet battle strategist during the bloody Stark Hyperspace Wars.

After the second round the opponent is back to feeling better and suffers no more penalties. However, the opponent can make an opposed stamina roll (non-Force user) or control Force skill (Force users) to cut the penalty down to -1D for one round. The Jedi Master Oppo Rancisis is a master of Malacia who has taught the technique to a small number of Jedi.
Note: This power must be taught to you by a master.

Adi Gallia

A beautiful Jedi Master of astonishing power and charisma from the planet Corellia, Adi Gallia was a member of the Jedi Council during the Battle of Geonosis. Gallia had piercing blue eyes that alone gave her a powerful presence. She had great intuition and skill in research. Also, she possessed a notable understanding of the economics of politics, as her parents were famed Corellian diplomats. A skilled pilot, she was among those who tested the new Jedi Starfighter and flew in air support above Geonosis along with her former Padawan, Siri Tachi. One of Adi's most distinguishing features was her unorthodox lightsaber style. She held her lightsaber in a reverse grip resulting in wide, long swings. Gallia was a superb pilot and skillful warrior. Although her own record of accomplishments and talents was impressive, Gallia took great pride in the actions of her apprentice Siri.

Joining the High Council after the death of Yarael Poof, Coleman Trebor's wisdom and insight was greatly revered by his fellow Jedi. He peacefully settled a number of major interplanetary disputes, and was considered more of a negotiator than a combatant. Still, when required to do so, Trebor brandished his lightsaber in the defense of the Republic. Trebor was a male Vurk from the watery world of Sembla. The planet is marked by warm seas separated by volcanic ridges that are generally considered primitive by the rest of the galaxy. When a Jedi taskforce was needed, before the clone wars, to rescue captives and face a dangerous Separatist movement gearing for war, Master Trebor was one of the 200 Jedi that voyaged to Geonosis. Attempting to confront Count Dooku, former Jedi and leader of the Separatists, Coleman was callously shot by Dooku's henchman, bounty hunter Jango Fett.

Eeth Koth

Eeth Koth was a member of the Jedi High Council in the final years of the order. From within the polished towers of the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, the Council governed the actions of the Jedi Knights. Master Koth was a close friend of Mace Windu since they exchanged lightsabers for a while. He trained the legendary Jedi Sharad "Howlrunner" Hett. Eeth Koth fought in the Battle of Geonosis and died when his Republic gunship exploded. Though a Zabrak (the same species as Darth Maul and Agen Kolar), Koth did not hail from the planet Iridonia. Instead, he was born in the squalor of Nar Shaddaa, the smuggler's moon orbiting the Hutt-controlled planet of Nal Hutta. The term Iridonian Zabrak simply refers to a difference in horn patterns between different Zabraks. Like those of his species, Koth had great mental endurance. He also possessed seemingly interminable willpower and endurance to physical pain. His raw physical abilities, mental disciplines and Force talents were honed by his master, and once Koth attained Knighthood, he shared his talents with his Padawan Sharad Hett.

Depa Billaba

Depa Billaba was a Chalactan Jedi Master serving on the Jedi Council. Before her trials, she had been the Padawan learner of Jedi Master Mace Windu. The respected Windu saved her from the space pirates that killed her parents. He brought the six-month old Force-sensitive child to the temple and took her as his Padawan when she was of age. Mace, the creator of Vaapad, taught her all he knew and she became as close as a daughter. Depa embraced the culture of Chalacta, making her attuned to the minds and personalities of her peers in the Jedi Council Chamber. Decorating the bridge of her nose were Chalactan marks of illumination, testament to her spirituality. She was a calm but powerful presence on the High Council. During the Battle of Geonosis, Billaba had looked after the "younglings," while the other Jedi were dispatched to fight. A spiritual individual, but capable enough to take quick action if need be. A consummate lightsaber duelist, she mastered the Juyo form of lightsaber combat, and was also one of only three Jedi to master Vaapad, a series of techniques that was widely regarded to complete the Juyo lightsaber form, but also posed a grave spiritual threat for its wielder. According to Mace, Depa's bladework had already surpassed the Vaapad he created.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Obi-Wan Kenobi was a Jedi Knight at the time of the Battle of Geonosis. Shortly after the death of his master Qui-Gon Jinn, he took Anakin Skywalker as his Padawan learner. With Anakin as his Padawan, Obi-Wan traveled to the mysterious planet Zonama Sekot to find the missing Jedi Vergere. They were present when Vergere was taken by the Far Outsiders and the planet jumped into Hyperspace to hide for the next fifty years. A few years later, they were involved in the events surrounding the departure of the Outbound Flight Project from Yaga Minor, though they did not join the expedition itself. They would later foil the plots of Granta Omega, the son of Xanatos, on the planet Korriban and protect Senator Simon Greyshade from the assassin that had claimed the life of his relative, Jheramahd. Ten years after the Invasion of Naboo, shortly after returning from a border dispute on Ansion, Kenobi and Skywalker were tasked with protecting Padmé Amidala after an attempt on her life. Through a ruse organized by Anakin, the assassin, a Clawdite named Zam Wesell, was soon uncovered and Kenobi pursued her through the streets of Coruscant, finally cornering her inside the Outlander Club. Unfortunately Wesell soon became a victim herself, falling to the poisoned dart of a mysterious hunter garbed in Mandalorian armor. The only clue to his identity was the very dart that killed Wesell - a weapon of Kaminoan make. With the aid of long-time associate Dexter Jettster, Kenobi tracked the mysterious second assassin to Kamino, in the process discovering a massive clone army that the Kaminoans were raising for the Republic. Kenobi attempted to apprehend the bounty hunter, now identified as one Jango Fett, but Fett escaped to Geonosis with his son Boba. Kenobi followed them, and on Geonosis, he uncovered a conspiracy of star systems that wanted to secede from the Republic, led by Count Dooku. Kenobi was captured shortly after sending a message to Anakin. Dooku attempted to persuade Kenobi to join the Confederacy of Independent Systems, using Kenobi's memory of Qui-Gon Jinn as bait. Much to Dooku's disappointment, Kenobi rejected his alliance and Dooku left, musing that it would be difficult to secure Kenobi's release. Anakin and Padmé arrived on Geonosis, but they too were captured, and all three were sentenced to death by the Geonosians. It was the timely arrival of Jedi and clone reinforcements, led by Jedi Masters Mace Windu and Yoda that prevented the executions. Kenobi and Skywalker confronted Count Dooku and fought him, but were defeated by the masterful Sith Lord, who later escaped after a fierce duel with Yoda.

Anakin Skywalker

As a young adult, Anakin Skywalker developed as arrogant and somewhat socially awkward, doubtless in part because of his rapid transition from scrapyard slave to rising star of the Jedi Order. His natural abilities placed him leaps and bounds above his peers, and this fed his ego as well as distancing himself from other learners of his age. He frequently showed off, chafed against authority, and displayed little respect for Obi-Wan, whom he partially viewed as inferior. Despite this perception, he did state that Obi-Wan was like a father to him and he claimed he had the wisdom of Master Yoda and the power of Master Windu, but this praise may have been just another expression of Anakin's own arrogance, as he amended that he himself was "beyond" Kenobi in many ways and felt he was holding him back. His relationship with his master was complicated. Frustrated, Anakin would turn to another mentor for advice. His early friendship with Palpatine continued, with the Chancellor lending Anakin a sympathetic ear, and saying things to further fuel his pride. After an attempt on her life, Anakin was assigned to guard Padmé Amidala, now the Senator of Naboo. Anakin had not seen her in ten years, though he thought about her every day since their parting at Naboo. His childhood fascination with her had turned into a powerful infatuation. In conversation, he revealed his affection for her, a distrust of the political process, and his view of the need for one strong leader. He fell in love with Padmé, and, eventually, she with him. Both seemed entranced with the other and their different social castes, though Padmé had foresight enough to know their current situations would not allow for a relationship between them. Anakin's pursuit of this relationship was in violation of Jedi tradition, which held that although Jedi were not required to be celibate, they were to avoid attachment to all but the Force itself. Anakin suffered recurring nightmares about his mother, Shmi, and went against the spirit of his orders to guard Padmé by bringing her to Tatooine to find Shmi. After speaking to Cliegg Lars, the moisture farmer who had freed and married Shmi in the years since Anakin had been away, he found that she had been carried off by Sand People, and set out in pursuit on a swoop bike. The young Jedi discovered their camp beyond the B'Thazoshe Bridge, and slipped into the tent that contained his mother, most likely locating her with his Jedi senses. Battered, sleep-deprived, and dehydrated, Shmi Skywalker died in his arms, presumably of massive cardiac failure. Anakin allowed the shock of her death to catalyze an explosion of his long-nursed anger and selfishness. He flew into a rage, killing everyone present - even, as he confessed to Padmé later, "the women and children." A number of Jedi, including the deceased Qui-Gon Jinn, sensed the shock of this massacre, amplified by Anakin's powerful Force presence bordering the dark side. His acts of hatred caused that specific area of Tatooine to become a location of darkness, corrupting the creatures that lived nearby, much like that of the former world of Malachor V. Padmé was clearly troubled by what he had done, but had invested herself too much in him to be truly repulsed; she tried to soothe him with sympathy.

Luminara Unduli

Luminara Unduli was a Mirialan female Jedi hailing from the cold desert planet of Mirial. Her lower lip was stained a permanent purplish-black, and a series of interlocking black diamonds ran down her chin, while more intricate markings covered her knuckle joints; these tattoos denoted her physical discipline. Her eyes were of an intense blue color, a contrast to her olive colored skin. Luminara had power that very few Jedi would be able to parallel. Some say that she would easily match the skills of fallen Jedi Master Count Dooku. Among the Seven Forms of Lightsaber Combat, Master Unduli favored Form III above the rest, believing that a true master of that lightsaber technique was invincible. Not only were her lightsaber skills superb, but she had also trained herself to become so incredibly flexible that she could easily twist to evade almost any attack that she did not block with her green lightsaber. Years of intense training turned her body into a weapon itself, increasing the flexibility of her joints to allow her inhuman agility and contortionist-like feats during combat. Just before the Clone Wars, Luminara and her apprentice, Barriss Offee, together with Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi and his Padawan Anakin Skywalker, were dispatched to the minor world of Ansion to settle a dispute, thus solidifying Ansion's place in the Republic, and dissuading them from joining the Separatist movement. Unduli would continue to use her diplomatic skills, quick wit, and strength in the Force in the war to come.

Jedi Business

From the notes of Jocasta Nu, Jedi Archivist.

While wrapping up my investigation of Senator Amidala's assassination attempt, I have been able to piece together all the events but a few. I needed more details on what happened that night right after Obi-Wan leapt out the window clinging to an assassin droid. I had gathered some reports of disturbances in the senator's building, but they were confusing. So I decided to go directly to the source, Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan's Padawan. He was not hard to find; he beamed with the Force. When I caught up to young Skywalker, he was waiting most impatiently outside of the Jedi High Council Chambers for his Master to finish a briefing on the current situation. Upon approaching Skywalker I informed him that I was trying to finish a detailed report of that day's events, and that all I was missing was his point of view of things right after Master Kenobi jumped through the glass. This is what he said: "Well, right after Master Obi-Wan recklessly dove through the window after the assassin droid, I contacted Captain Typho, head of security, and made sure Padmé was alright. With that done I ran out of the room, but I couldn't afford to wait around for the turbolift; my Master needed my help and Padmé's attacker was getting away. So I ignited my lightsaber, cut a hole through the doors and jumped in. After freefalling several floors, I used my training to buffer the fall as I landed on top of the roof of the turbolift. Once again I ignited my lightsaber and cut through the roof of the turbolift. Once the hole was big enough, I dropped through and landed in between two very scared Senators. "Jedi business" I told them, but they still looked pretty outraged. After taking a second to assess the situation, I asked the two senators where the docking bay level was, because I needed to get a speeder or something to catch up with Master Obi-Wan. The human senator said that the docking bay was on level 47 and that they had already passed that and were headed to level 64. So I slammed on the braking mechanism to try and stop the lift's forward progress, but when that didn't work fast enough, I then reached through the Force, grabbed the brakes and stopped the turbolift. At this point, for some reason, the door refused to open. So, once again, I realized I had to cut through it with my lightsaber; this whole thing was taking way too long. About the time I ignited my saber to stab through, I felt a light tap on my shoulder. I turned around to see the human senator grinning at me from ear to ear as he reached over and hit the open button on the lift and the door gracefully slid open. Smiling and feeling a little embarrassed, I sprinted out of the turbolift to the docking bay, where there wasn't a whole lot to choose from. So I picked the one I thought would be the fastest, and had an open cockpit, which would make it easier for Obi-Wan to enter. It just happened to be a very gonzo yellow snub-nose speeder, owned by some pampered noble, as I learned later. After that I believe you pretty much know what happened, right? The usual chase through Coruscant's busy skylanes routine, standard fare. In the end we caught the crook, that's what matters." He finished just as the chamber doors opened and Master Kenobi appeared. Obi-Wan asked me to excuse his Padawan and escorted him to a meeting with the High Council.

Barriss Offee

Barriss Offee was taken from her parents at an early age to be raised within the confines of the Jedi Temple and the tenets of the Jedi Code. Despite rigid schooling in Jedi doctrine, the young Offee possessed an impulsive streak frowned upon by more conservative Jedi Masters. While she was reserved by nature, and not easily intimidated, there were times when she preferred wielding her lightsaber rather than following the protocols of diplomacy. Her attempts to overcompensate for her youthful exuberance sometimes gave her a cold demeanor.

In combat, Barriss Offee specialized in tandem fighting. Her connection to the Force allowed her to perfectly synchronize her actions with that of her Master. A few months before the Battle of Geonosis, Barriss and her Master, Luminara Unduli, joined Master Kenobi and his Padawan Anakin Skywalker on a mission to aid in a border dispute on Ansion. During the mission, she found herself becoming infatuated by Anakin but did not let that bond become any stronger.

Agen Kolar

Agen Kolar was a Jedi Master and a member of the Zabrak species, born on the planet Iridonia. He fought on Geonosis and survived in the battle's end, though his young Padawan Tan Yuster, did not. He held a seat on the Jedi High Council and Mace Windu considered him one of the Order's finest members. Master Kolar had considerable skill and was a tough combatant, but diplomacy was not his strong suit.

Kit Fisto

An amphibious Nautolan from the Sabilon region of watery Glee Anselm, Kit Fisto had head tentacles that contained highly sensitive olfactory receptors, allowing him to detect pheromonal expressions of emotion and other changes in body chemistry. Fisto could live in air or in water. He was an extremely powerful swimmer, and honed his Jedi abilities to take advantage of his aquatic origins. He had perfected difficult Force techniques that manipulated the movement of water for defensive or offensive use. Master Fisto practiced the Form I style of lightsaber combat (also known as Shii-Cho), and his lightsaber could be used underwater due to the two rare crystals it harnessed. He was one of the four Jedi commanders at the Battle of Geonosis, along with Mace Windu, Shaak Ti and Luminara Unduli. His former Padawan, Bant Eerin, fought in the space battle overhead.

Low-Light Vision: A Nautolan can see twice as far as a normal human in poor lighting conditions.
Pheromone Detection: Nautolans possess tendrils which act as their major sensory organs, and they barely function outside of water. The tendrils are so sensitive that they can sense odors and pheromones, which can allow an observant Nautolan some idea of a target's emotional state. Because of this, Nautolans gain a +1D bonus to all skills rolls involving interpersonal relations (ie, Bargain, Command, Con, Intimidation, Investigation, or Persuasion) when in water. When outside of water, this bonus is reduced to a mere +1 pip.

Sora Bulq

Sora Bulq was one of the greatest lightsaber instructors the Jedi Order had ever known, perfecting the various forms of combat techniques, both classical and experimental. He even helped Mace Windu perfect the art of Vaapad, the seventh form of lightsaber combat so intense and dangerous that to practice it was to tread perilously close to the dark side. Bulq had trained many of the Jedi combatants who perished in the Geonosis arena, including his then-current Padawan, Galdos Stouff. Sadly enough, Bulq was listed as one of the casualties of that fateful battle.

Pablo-Jill

An Ongree Jedi Knight from the Skustell Cluster, Pablo-Jill was famous for his role in bringing a temporary peace to the lawless world of Ord Mantell. Though the Jedi Council encouraged him to take a Padawan, he never began training a student before the start of the Clone Wars. Pablo-Jill was a member of the 200 Jedi taskforce sent to Geonosis to help Obi-Wan, Anakin and Padmé.

Aayla Secura

A Rutian Twi'lek born to an influential clan on Ryloth, Aayla Secura was apprenticed to Quinlan Vos at a young age and raised as a Jedi. Like most Twi'leks, Aayla was athletic and graceful. She was highly empathic, intelligent, and impulsive but seemingly devoid of anger. She had an impish and sometimes mischievous sense of humor. While capable with a lightsaber, she preferred to use it in a strictly defensive mode; like most of her people, she preferred cunning over violence. While investigating the illegal trafficking of glitteryll, a hybrid drug combining glitterstim and ryll spices, both Aayla and Quinlan were robbed of their memories by Pol Secura, the scheming drug baron and Aayla's uncle. So unscrupulous was Pol that he kept the confused Aayla as one of his possessions, holding his unknowing niece as insurance against future Jedi reprisals. Quinlan Vos, struggling with the memory wipe, nonetheless found Aayla. Aayla's latent Force abilities, unburdened by the rules of the forgotten Jedi Code, were unleashed in a fit of confused rage. Her uncontrollable outburst resulted in the apparent death of her uncle. With her master's patient guidance, Aayla eventually recovered her memories and rejoined the Jedi Order.

Stass Allie

Stass Allie was the cousin of Jedi Master Adi Gallia, though considerably younger. Her cool blue eyes and her swaying Tholoth headdress pointed to her familial connection to Master Gallia, but Stass Allie had only ascended to the level of Jedi Knight shortly before the Battle of Geonosis. Though an experienced warrior and field agent of note - her accomplishments included the fracturing of Lojrak Shrag's salt cartel on Cona - Stass Allie was a devoted Jedi healer and possessed amazing lightsaber skills, having mastered Form I (Shii-Cho) (see the seven forms of lightsaber combat). She however did not have a connection to the Force as powerful as other Masters.

Bultar Swan

Apprenticed to Micah Giett, Bultar Swan showed promise in a number of combat disciplines, though she never applied her acrobatic styles to take a life prior to the outbreak of the Clone Wars. With the tragic death of Giett at the hands of Yinchorri extremists, Swan continued her training under Jedi Master Plo Koon. In practice, Swan excelled at drawing opponents toward her by minimizing her own physical movements, and then striking forward in a flawless attack of blinding celerity. Just prior to the outbreak of the Clone Wars, Bultar Swan was part of a diplomatic team trying to broker peace in the heated Sepan Civil War. She was one of the 200-member Jedi taskforce that arrived on Geonosis on a rescue mission to free Jedi captives from Separatist forces. Her skills with the lightsaber were put to the test as she faced off against Geonosian warriors and a seemingly endless horde of battle droids.

Chapter Three: The Separatist Movement

"The Jedi will be overwhelmed, the Republic will agree to any demands we make." — Count Dooku

The Separatist movement began eight years after Supreme Chancellor Palpatine's election, though many of the roots of its origins date back much earlier than that. Palpatine's stint as Supreme Chancellor was so rocked by various crises that he was able to outlast term limitations while dealing with them. When former Jedi Count Dooku appeared on Raxus Prime with a fiery brand of political rhetoric demanding reform, many were prepared to listen. Dooku's words resonated with the galaxy's disaffected populace, and many picked up the banner of the Separatist cause even though they had no direct connection to Dooku. Opportunists used Dooku's name to further their own agendas under the guise of political protest, and this led to scattered violence across the Republic. The organization's main goal was to split from the Republic and form a new government on grounds that the Republic had become too corrupt. The members of this organization were called "Separatists". Count Dooku was the political head of the movement, although, unbeknown to the galaxy, he answered to his master, the Dark Lord of the Sith, Darth Sidious. After the death of Darth Maul at the Battle of Naboo, Sidious had to find a new apprentice. Count Dooku, who was disheartened by the lack of vision of the Senate as well as the Jedi, fit the bill perfectly. Thus, following the Sith mandate set by Darth Bane that there would be only two, a master and an apprentice, Dooku took the name Darth Tyranus and dedicated his new life to the dark side and his new master. During the months prior to the formal consolidation of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, many violent confrontations were attributed to Separatist forces, though the Jedi Council discounted any attempts to blame Dooku for such activities. The Jedi had to weather an increasingly tarnished public image as their forces were spread too thin to protect against the acts of treason seemingly orchestrated by one of their own. Supreme Chancellor Palpatine took to the HoloNet to ask Count Dooku to parlay, but he received no response. He formed a loyalist committee to better help him deal with the crisis, but had to endure further scandal when it was revealed that even that entity had been infiltrated by Separatist sympathizers. What none in the Senate knew was that the Separatists were gearing up for war. Count Dooku courted the massive engines of commerce in the galaxy - institutions such as the Corporate Alliance, the Trade Federation, the Techno Union, InterGalactic Banking Clan and Commerce Guild - with promises of reform and unyielding devotion to capitalism. In exchange, these bodies would commit their immense armies to the Separatist cause. With their droid armies scattered throughout the galaxy, the Separatists would overwhelm the Republic. Dooku felt confident that ten thousand more systems would join the Separatists. It was at the first engagement of the Clone Wars, the Battle of Geonosis, that the Confederacy of Independent Systems formally emerged, protected by the droid armies of various corporate entities. Though they were routed at the battle, the Separatists would regroup, and the Clone Wars spread to many battlefronts across the galaxy.

At a secret meeting on Geonosis, the Confederacy of Independent Systems is consolidated.

Count Dooku (Darth Tyranus)

Count Dooku of Serenno was a Jedi Master and the Count of Serenno, who fell to the dark side of the Force and became Darth Tyranus, the apprentice of Darth Sidious. Under Sidious's orders, he formed the Confederacy of Independent Systems and was the political leader of the Separatist movement. Dooku was once an esteemed Jedi who, like all Jedi of his time, trained under Grand Master Yoda as a youngling until he became a Padawan under Thame Cerulian at the age of thirteen.

Cerulian molded Dooku into a powerful Jedi, tapping into the vast potential he sensed in his learner. Attaining knighthood, Dooku took young Qui-Gon Jinn as his Padawan Learner, training him into a great Jedi. Dooku left the public eye around the time of the Battle of Naboo and disappeared, not surfacing until eight years later. By that time, Dooku was no longer the Jedi Master that he once was, but a fully-fledged Dark Lord of the Sith. It is unknown when or how Dooku met Darth Sidious. After the death of Darth Maul, a Sith Lord who was under training for many years, Sidious had no time to mold another potential Sith into a perfect warrior, as the Battle of Naboo sparked the start of his climb through the Republic. Requiring another apprentice, he chose the maverick Jedi Master. Dooku fell to the dark side of the Force and became Sidious' Sith apprentice Darth Tyranus. His murder of his friend Sifo-Dyas sealed his transition. As Darth Tyranus, Dooku's first mission was to recruit a template for the Grand Army of the Republic's clone troopers to be used by Supreme Chancellor Palpatine and the Republic. He placed an extremely large bounty of 5,000,000 credits on Bando Gora leader Komari Vosa, a former pupil of his, and pitted the galaxy's most fearsome bounty hunters against each other. In the end, the ex-Mandalorians Montross and Jango Fett faced each other on Kohlma. Fett triumphed over his rival, killing Vosa and claiming the reward. He agreed to be cloned on the condition he received the first unit "unaltered". With his plans in motion, Count Dooku reappeared on Raxus Prime heavily criticizing the Republic and the Jedi Order for their decadence, hypocrisy and corruption. Dooku, a political mastermind, publicly called for entire systems to secede from the Republic and join the Separatist movement, culminating in the old teacher, Yoda, confronting him. After a battle of Force powers, Dooku insisted on settling their contest with a lightsaber duel. A powerful and incredible duel followed. Yoda, using his mastery of the Force and Form IV, showed amazing agility as he jumped all around the room, though Dooku skillfully defended himself. Realizing that he could not prolong the duel without suffering a critically nigh defeat, Dooku used the Force to drop a crane on the wounded Obi-Wan and Anakin to distract Yoda long enough to make his escape. Count Dooku soon arrived on Coruscant where he met with his master, Darth Sidious, and informed him that the Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems were officially at war.

Geonosian Solar Sailer

The Punworcca-116 interstellar sloop was a solar sailer designed by the Huppla Pasa Tisc Shipwrights Collective of Geonosis, using Gree technology for the sail. The seed-shaped vessel bore a resemblance to the smaller Geonosian starfighter, though the sloop had room inside for two pilots, a bunk and cargo space. Though unarmed, the solar sloop featured 84 miniature tractor beam projectors fitted to the forward prongs, which acted both as steering aids and emergency grapple weapons. Count Dooku received an interstellar sloop as a gift from his Geonosian benefactors prior to the Clone Wars. To the Geonosian sloop, Dooku added a unique and ancient solar sail acquired in the Gree Enclave. Fitted to his vessel, the solar sail propels the sailer through mysterious means; regular solar sailers use sails that unfurl to moonlike diameters, catching tachyon streams and ultraviolet lasers. An FA-4 pilot droid flew the sailer for Dooku, who was often found in the rear hold, perusing the onboard databook library.

Poggle the Lesser

Originally, Poggle was a member of the Geonosian lower caste, hence his surname "the Lesser". He sought the position held by then-Archduke Hadiss the Vaulted and organized a revolt against him, which seemed to be of little concern to Hadiss, who easily dealt with the rebels. Over time, Poggle's rebels finally seized power and Poggle at last became Archduke of the Stalgasin Hive, the ruling hive of Geonosis, and Hadiss was executed in the Geonosian arena. Shortly after the Trade Federation was defeated at the Battle of Naboo, Poggle was approached by the rogue Jedi Count Dooku, revealing himself as Darth Tyranus, the new apprentice of Darth Sidious. Dooku formed a partnership with Poggle; the Archduke would ensure that Geonosis was among the founding worlds of the Confederacy of Independent Systems and provide a large supply of the Confederacy droid army. In return, Poggle would be paid large sums of money for his trouble and Geonosis would earn a place on the high order of the new Confederacy. This partnership was lucrative; Poggle even took the liberty to create a new B-2 battle droid for the Confederacy. Nearly ten years after their initial meeting, Poggle the Lesser hosted the first meeting of the Confederacy in the Stalgasin Hive. The Geonosians captured the intruding Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Senator Padmé Amidala soon after this meeting, and Poggle himself presided over their trials, charging them with espionage and sentencing them to execution at the Geonosian arena. Senator Amidala warned Poggle that to execute three officials of the Republic was an act of war; Poggle scoffed that, as a builder of weapons, he was more than prepared for it. The execution did not go as Poggle planned, but despite the prisoners managing to outwit the arena beasts (and Nute Gunray's constant complaining), Poggle was satisfied by the display, until Mace Windu and several Jedi arrived to rescue them. Poggle's battle droids outnumbered the Jedi and victory seemed sure, until the Republic Army arrived. Poggle and the Separatists retreated to a war room and watched helplessly as the Republic Army, suddenly manned by squads of clone troopers, slaughtered their droid army. Poggle ordered his soldiers to retreat and hide, but before he joined them, he turned over plans to the Great Weapon - a secret project he had been contracted to build by the Separatists which would later become the Galactic Empire's feared battle station, the dreaded Death Star - to Count Dooku and erased all data from his computers.

The Rise of Poggle, the Lesser

It's hard to believe that Poggle the Lesser, Archduke of Geonosis, was once a member of the Geonosian Lower Caste. He had been sentenced to die in a Geonosian Execution Arena by the bloody teeth of an Acklay, but that was the way it was if one committed a crime under Geonosian law. Poggle knew this, knew the consequences of his actions, but started the revolt anyway. It was a revolt that then-Archduke Hadiss easily crushed and dealt with. Hadiss the Vaulted was the Archduke of Geonosis before Poggle. Hadiss preferred to solve issues in battle. Rather than to simply allow criminals to survive in the gladiatorial arenas, Hadiss made sure that any individual that survived the trials would face an enraged Acklay. So was Poggle's fate; he survived his trial, but was sentenced to death by facing the Acklay. But much to the shock of all, Poggle not only defeated the Acklay but managed to escape as well. For the next several months Poggle hid and sowed the seeds of deceit among Hadiss's ranks. As months and months passed, more and more people came to Poggle and voiced their displeasure with Hadiss. Before long Poggle went from a small revolt to a large insurrection, but Poggle lacked the one thing he needed to get this revolution started, and that was financial backing and weapons. That was until Sith Lord Darth Sidious came to Poggle's aid and secretly funded his revolution. Over time, Poggle's rebels finally seized power and Poggle at last became Archduke of the Stalgasin hive, the ruling hive of Geonosis. In a twist of fate, Poggle attacked Hadiss while riding on the back of an Acklay, which cut Hadiss into three pieces before devouring him. Poggle then took parts of Hadiss's corpse and made it part of his cane.

He had a good relationship with fellow Senator and Confederacy of Independent Systems member/leader Po Nudo. He was a highly wanted bounty, as many of the Galaxy's best bounty hunters, such as Jango Fett, Zam Wesell, and Bossk, tried to capture or assassinate him. Shortly before the start of the Clone Wars, Tikkes was implicated as being involved in a slaving ring, along with senators Bufus Ritsomas, Danry Ledwellow, and Wuja Wojaine. Tikkes was placed under house arrest, and a week later, escaped. It was later learned that he had joined the Separatist movement, and soon became part of the Separatist Council.

Trade Federation

Even after the Senate's reprimands for the Naboo incident, the Trade Federation nonetheless continued to operate, becoming all the more influential in the political chaos that would follow. Nute Gunray avoided hard time for his transgressions, and even after four trials in the Supreme Court, still managed to hold onto his Viceroy title. Feeling betrayed by the Sith after their debacle at Naboo, Gunray allied himself to Count Dooku, a renegade Jedi leading a growing Separatist movement in the galaxy. Dooku courted a number of major commercial interests to back his rebellion, and his promises of absolute commitment to capitalism resonated deeply among the greedy. Gunray was willing to pledge the forces of the Trade Federation to the Confederacy of Independent System on one condition: the death of Padmé Amidala. The young Naboo politician became the target of several assassination attempts, but she escaped time and again. Nonetheless, Gunray committed the Trade Federation to the Separatist cause, and in the first battle of the Clone Wars, the Trade Federation droid army fought against the clone army of the Republic.

Nute Gunray

After four trials in the Republic Supreme Court, Nute Gunray still maintained control over the Trade Federation, although several of his associates were killed in the Battle of Naboo. Sidious then instructed Gunray to join the Confederacy of Independent Systems, which wished to secede from the Republic.

Gilramos Libkath

A Neimoidian, Gilramos Libkath was a pompous and conniving Trade Federation senator who served as Nute Gunray's assistant during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. When Viceroy Gunray was on Geonosis to sign the treaty that would combine the Trade Federation droid armies with those of the Techno Union, Libkath accompanied him. When an army of Jedi Knights and Clone troopers invaded, it was Libkath who suggested to the Viceroy that they flee the planet. Libkath escaped Geonosis with Gunray aboard their shuttle. Libkath left the Trade Federation two months after the Battle of Geonosis and became a slaver on Tatooine, forcing children to steal for him. He eventually attracted Jabba the Hutt's wrath by stealing from him, which led to Libkath's death by the hands of the young bounty hunter Boba Fett.

Sheathipede Shuttle

The Sheathipede-class shuttle, also known as the Neimoidian Shuttle, was a craft used by high-ranking officials of the Trade Federation to visit potential clients and marketplaces. They were shaped like giant beetle-like insects and their landing-legs could only settle down on hard surfaces. This was due to the businessmen's distaste for dealing with poor, underdeveloped worlds. These shuttles often had their cockpits removed and replaced by automated pilots, so that cabin space could be increased. The Sheathipede-class shuttle was a short-range ship, used only for planetary travel or to ferry passengers to and from an orbital starship. The personal shuttle of Viceroy Nute Gunray was named the Lapiz Cutter. This ship had no weapons, although it was protected by powerful deflector shields. Sheathipede-class shuttles were used by Neimoidian officials to land on Naboo after they had invaded the planet. Later, when the Battle of Geonosis appeared to go in favor of the Republic, the Neimoidian representatives took off in one of these craft.

Techno Union

The Techno Union was a large coalition of high technology firms. Formed primarily of heavy manufacturing concerns, the Techno Union lobbied the Republic's Senate on behalf of its members' interests and attempted to ensure fair commerce between its members. In time, the Techno Union would grow to include galactic shipping magnates to further ensure the free flow of goods. Corporate signatories, which included Baktoid Armor Workshop, Haor Chall Engineering, Republic Sienar Systems, Kuat Systems Engineering, TaggeCo, BlasTech Industries, and Corellian Engineering Corporation, were provided access to cutting edge technology and research and development facilities. The Union also included the manufacturing worlds of Fondor, Mechis III, Foundry, Metalorn, Telti, Foerost, and Xagobah. It should be noted that the level to which members backed the union varied considerably. Foreman Wat Tambor led the Techno Union to model its behaviors after the Trade Federation, earning a seat in the Senate and the right to defend itself with a droid army. When the Separatist crisis came to a head, the Techno Union was one of the first to pledge its support to the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

Wat Tambor

Wat Tambor was Foreman of the Techno Union. He was a member of the Crimlin Clan. He was also the Techno Union's representative in the Galactic Senate and later a member of the Separatist Council. A Skakoan from Skako, Tambor spent much of his time on the harsh industrial world of Metalorn. As one of the few Skakoans to venture offworld, Wat Tambor wore a full-body pressure suit, to prevent being explosively decompressed in standard atmospheres, as the native atmospheric pressure of Skako is completely different from that of most planets. Wat Tambor pledged the Techno Union army to the military forces of the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

InterGalactic Banking Clan

The InterGalactic Banking Clan or IGBC was a union of Muunilinst ruling Council of Banking Clans and several other banking powers. Its name likely refers to its extragalactic influence; it is known that the Banking Clan controlled assets as far as halfway between the Galaxy and its nearest satellite galaxy. This financial juggernaut was represented by San Hill, a Muun from the planet Muunilinst. Despite a façade of consumer-friendliness, the IGBC maintained a sizable droid military in its euphemistically named "Collections and Securities Division." Its hoop-wheeled Hailfire droids could make loan negotiations proceed at a chillingly expedient pace. The economic turbulence that accompanied the Separatist movement prior to the Clone Wars actually benefited the IGBC, as it became the most prominent lending institution that many new independent worlds turned to for economic assistance.

San Hill

San Hill was the Chairman of the InterGalactic Banking Clan. He was from the planet Muunilinst and of the Muun species. In the economic turbulence that accompanied the Separatist movement, InterGalactic Banking Clan executives profited handsomely from numerous worlds minting their own independent currencies. He also was one of the key leaders of the Confederacy of Independent Systems and was present at the meeting on Geonosis, where he supplied Hailfire droid tanks to the droid armies of the Confederacy.

Corporate Alliance

The Corporate Alliance was the negotiating body for several of the Galaxy's largest commercial firms. Because of its members' large financial and economic influence, the Corporate Alliance was very wealthy and held considerable influence in the Galactic Senate. The Corporate Alliance was represented in the Senate by its Magistrate, Passel Argente, a member of the Koorivar species. The company was headquartered on the planet Murkhana. Like its contemporaries, the Trade Federation and InterGalactic Banking Clan, the Corporate Alliance had its own security forces to defend its interests. It was also ruled by a directorate, like the Trade Federation. Over time, the Corporate Alliance grew frustrated with the Senate's limitations on its actions. It supported the Trade Federation blockade of Naboo, and it eventually aligned itself with Count Dooku's emerging Separatist movement with the promise of unlimited profit under a new government. The Corporate Alliance would remain a silent supporter and regulated the distribution of retail products in favor of the Separatists.

Passel Argente

Passel Argente was the leader of the Corporate Alliance and a member of the Confederacy of Independent Systems. He was a Koorivar, and his homeworld was the planet Kooriva, though he later made his home on Murkhana. As Magistrate of the Corporate Alliance, Passel Argente was also a key member of Count Dooku's Separatist movement. He was present at the Separatist meeting shortly before the Battle of Geonosis. After serving as a Republic Senator during the term of Supreme Chancellor Valorum and during much of Supreme Chancellor Palpatine's reign, he abandoned the Republic and joined the Separatist movement with the promise of more wealth, and pledged the Corporate Alliance's forces to support the Separatist cause. Passel Argente funded and marketed both anti-Jedi and anti-Republic propaganda which helped keep the public in Confederate territory pro-war.

Commerce Guild

The Commerce Guild was a trade group made up of major corporations such as the SoroSuub Corporation. It was known to force smaller companies to join the Guild. Companies that resisted were placed under tremendous pressure by the Guild. Like the Trade Federation and the InterGalactic Banking Clan, the Commerce Guild had its own security forces, which ensured cooperation from smaller companies. The Guild was also powerful and had several corrupt planetary officials, senators, and industrial spies in its fold. The Commerce Guild also had the power to buy entire planets. One such planet was Castell, the homeworld of the Gossam Shu Mai. The Commerce Guild enslaved the entire population of Castell. At the time, Shu Mai was the Commerce Guild's Chief of Property Resources. She initially used her position to liberate her people, but then followed this by raising the required tribute from her fellow Gossam. The Commerce Guild was so pleased with Shu Mai that they gave her the office of President of the Commerce Guild. In the years leading to the Clone Wars, Shu Mai greatly increased the military and commercial clout of the Guild. She also instigated strife on Ansion, and aligned the guild with Count Dooku's Separatist movement.

Shu Mai

President Shu Mai was a Gossam from the planet Castell. She was the Chief of Property Resources for the Commerce Guild when she used an economic depression on her own homeworld Castell to further her position in the Commerce Guild. She saved the Gossam by rescuing them from the Commerce Guild's servitude. Instead, she repurchased Castell only to raise the rent and demand more tribute from her own people. Impressed, the Commerce Guild promoted her to the office of President. Later, Shu Mai stirred up secession on Ansion in the hopes that the resulting separation would further the Commerce Guild's profit. However, the Jedi were able to stop the secession and keep Ansion loyal to the Republic. Shu Mai remained undetected thanks to her position. She was present during a secret Separatist conference on Geonosis, where she pledged her droid and security forces to the Confederacy. During the Battle of Geonosis, her homing spider droids and dwarf spider droids were mobilized as part of the Confederacy defense. Shu Mai escaped Geonosis and prepared her armies for war.

Chapter Four: Planets

Coruscant

Throughout the thousands of generations of galactic history, the entire surface of Coruscant was covered over by sprawling skyscrapers and cities. The planet's oceans were all drained and kept in vast underground caverns for future reuse. The only body of water visible was the Western Sea, a body of water left alone by the workers to be preserved for tourists and natives alike. The Western Sea had many artificially created islands floating on it, used by tourists on holidays. The only other piece of Coruscant landmass that was left untouched were the Manarai Mountains. Many floating restaurants revolved around the Mountains, giving patrons a unique view of the natural wonders. Galactic Standard Time was developed on Coruscant and revolved around the hours Coruscant had in a single day, which was 24 hours, with 368 local days a year. Since there were no bodies of water available to feed and water its trillion inhabitants, Coruscant architects along with many others from around the galaxy worked together to build a self-contained eco-system in the massive buildings set all over the planet. Engineers also developed a complex series of huge pipes through which polar ice is pumped through to the cities of Coruscant. Almost everything on the planet, from clothes to packaging and machinery was recyclable. Another problem for a world like Coruscant was the unimaginable amounts of carbon dioxide that its trillion-being population generated each day, so atmospheric dampeners were put into place in orbit to remove it.

Transport Systems

Seen from above the cloudline, Coruscant appeared still and serene, with just the tops of the tallest building visible. Beneath the clouds, however, one found a heavily populated and very busy multilayered metropolis. Its skylanes were constantly busy with traffic, from small personal speeders to air buses and larger freighters. Most skylanes on Coruscant were autonavigated, with each vehicle traveling along a preprogrammed route to minimize the risk of collisions. The fastest traffic made use of the highest skylanes as it traveled long distances across Galactic City. Below the elevated skylanes, traffic moved in a more disorderly way, vying for space with garbage scows, unmarked speedervans, and small private conveyances. Vehicles could change skylanes at giant spiral interchanges, where they moved up or down, or switched directions. The massive flux of cargo to and from Coruscant was managed by the many freighter spaceports littered across Galactic City. The huge craft that docked there were cargo carriers, transporting luxury goods from Coruscant to every corner of the galaxy, and returning with raw materials not available on the urbanized capital planet. These craft were not passenger ships, although many impoverished emigrants obtained steerage on them. As well as migrants, the spaceport was busy with loading droids and overseers ensuring that each ship received its correct load of cargo.

AA-9 Starfreighter

The AA-9 Coruscant freighter was a massive freighter-model used to transport large groups of people to and from Coruscant. One such ship, the Jendirian Valley, transported Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala to Naboo after a failed assassination attempt on Amidala's life. AA-9 freighters were built at the Botajef shipyards. They employed Type Dyne-2577 sublight drives. As a result of the dislocation of populations by the Separatist crisis, the RRM converted numerous AA-9 freighters into makeshift passenger transports, the middle deck modified to carry 30,000 people. These passenger areas were made and furnished with makeshift components, with unreliable air and life-support.

City Districts

Coruscant was divided into several thousand quadrants, with each quadrant subdivided into numbered sectors. Some of these numbered sectors received colloquial names. For example, H-46 was also called Sah'c Town, named for the family that owned much of it. Some areas were specifically designated senatorial, governmental, financial (including banking zones), commercial, and residential. Larger areas of the planet were designated for industrial or manufacturing use only.

The Uscru Entertainment District was located near the Senate District. This popular area was alive at night, with holograms that lit up the streets. It was considered the outer layer between the jewel city and the Coruscant Underworld. The upper region of the district attracted a more refined clientele, with establishments such as the Galaxies Opera House, while the seedier lower levels were famous for such venues as the Outlander Club and the Snapping Septoid cantina. The Outlander Club, a facility owned by the Baath brothers, was a hangout for gamblers and glitterati of many species on Vos Gesal Street. It had once been a place of high class, but degenerated over the years. It featured games of sabacc and betting on such sports as podracing, nuna-ball and Odupiendo racing visible by telescreen. The criminal underworld also had a presence in the club, and the intersection of Daring Way and Vos Gesal Street in Uscru was considered one of the highest crime-rate areas on Coruscant. Another colorful area of Coruscant was Coco Town (short for "collective commerce"), a commercial district located in the upper levels. Many diverse species lived there and worked in manufacturing. Here one found exclusive stores and restaurants that catered to the wealthy highest-level citizens, as well as small canteens that served the maintenance crews and support staff working in those lofty heights. Notable locations in CoCo Town included Dex's Diner, the CoCo Penitentiary, Pom Plaza, Pets' "N" Pieces, and an archive building of the Galactic Museum. Many of CoCo Town's seedier canteens (including Dex's), which operated without trading licenses, were fitted with repulsorlifts for quick getaways from the CoCo District Constabulary.

The largest of these areas was known colloquially as "The Works". The Works had manufactured spacecraft parts, droids, and building materials at an astonishing rate for hundreds of years, but as construction in space became more efficient, The Works fell in disrepair. It gained the reputation as a hub of high criminal activity and many locals stayed away from it. The Works was the Sith meeting place of Darth Sidious and Darth Tyranus, Sidious's second apprentice and Confederate head of state and government, Count Dooku.

Magaloof

Magaloof, a Leffingite from the planet Almak, was a small-time crook wanting to become a bigger player in the Coruscant underground. His criminal career began when he stole an airspeeder on Coruscant, giving him a position in the gang of Hat Lo, a local crime boss. Magaloof was hoping to eventually work for higher profile crime syndicates such as the Baath brothers and Black Sun. Magaloof soon joined forces with Achk Med-Beq, and Med-Beq became a mentor of sorts. Together they orchestrated a number of successful raids. Med-Beq once convinced Magaloof to rob a Coco Town jewelry store; however, it was a con — Dannl Faytonni arrived on the scene disguised as a security officer and confiscated Magaloof's loot. Magaloof was later arrested by the real authorities for the robbery.

Acros-Krik

Acros-Krik was the corrupt Ongree mayor of Coruscant Uscru Entertainment District. Mayor Acros-Krik came to power through an election rigged by Black Sun operatives. In return, he used his newly elected position to gain valuable information for the crime syndicate. Because of Uscru's location close to the Senate Building, Acros-Krik had considerable access to highly placed Republic officials. Acros-Krik would offer up a trio of attractive females as guides to targets he wanted monitored. The Nalle triplets reported any useful information their guests may have foolishly divulged. During Acros-Krik's many years in office, the lower levels of the Uscru District festered with illegal activity. Mayor Acros-Krik himself had ties with the Baath brothers and other criminals. Unlike many other criminals operating in the shadows, Acros-Krik was a boisterous, gregarious man who liked to be viewed by the denizens of his district as a father figure who made all things possible.

Dannl Faytonni

Dannl Faytonni dreamed of a career as an officer in service to the Republic. His two main strengths led him astray: a nimble mind attuned to the variables of sabacc, and a suavely mature way with women that inspired awe and admiration. It was the latter attribute that caused him to fall for the wrong woman, a shifty changeling who conned him into fronting a spice-mining scheme. While he narrowly escaped arrest, he found himself with both CorSec and alien enemies on his tail.

Enlisting the help of his ambitious and inventive friend, Achk Med-Beq, Dannl escaped Corellia. His hopes for serving in uniform dashed, Dannl realized that there was profit and excitement to be had in the art of confidence and grafting. A series of misadventures later, the two ended up on Coruscant. A short stint in the Moderate Security Ward of the Coco District Penitentiary ended when they conned their ways aboard a laundry speeder. A profitable evening's worth of gambling later, the two conmen ended up with Republic uniforms. Now a "Lieutenant" (or so his rank piping indicated), Faytonni and Med-Beq hit the Outlander Club, looking for marks and entertainment.

Achk Med-Beq and Lt. Dannl Faytonni were partners in crime, though Med-Beq was probably the more inventive and ambitious of the two. Faytonni and Med-Beq took the plunge into the underworld when a botched spice mine front nearly landed Faytonni in jail. With Med-Beq's help, Dannl fled Corellia, and eventually ended up on Coruscant. They did a very brief stint at the Moderate Security Ward of the Coco District Penitentiary, before escaping in a laundry speeder. Dannl's gambling skills won them a pair of Republic official uniforms, which they wore to the Outlander Club that night.

Ayy Vida

Ayy Vida was a Twi'lek exotic dancer in the Outlander Club. Ayy Vida's life had been tainted by the criminal underworld. She had long been a consort of Hat Lo, a local crime boss with delusions of grandeur. She would have fled from him, were it not for her fear of Tas Kee, Hat Lo's Weequay enforcer. One night, at the Outlander Club, she locked eyes with a rather dapper Republic Guard. She may have entertained thoughts of a hero coming to rescue her from the rough life, but this guard was nothing more than a con-artist in an official's uniform.

Tas Kee

For a self-proclaimed criminal mastermind, Hat Lo made several crucial errors in judgment. The crook encouraged the belief that he was the biggest fish in the underworld waters of the Coruscant crime scene, but in truth, he was little more than an errand boy for wealthy and powerful Hutts. The grotesque gastropod gangsters grew annoyed with Lo, but he kept a screen of protectors nearby whenever possible. One such hired thug is Tas Kee, a female Weequay from Sriluur. She routinely carried several concealed weapons, crafted to evade what few detectors can be found in the shadowed undercity.

Elan Sleazebaggano

Elan Sleazebaggano was on the path to a promising life as a medical student studying on Coruscant when he fell in with the wrong crowd. He did nothing to dispel the stereotype that Balosars are shifty cheats and scoundrels, and ended up stealing the university medical supplies and selling them to local mobster, Hat Lo. Sleazebaggano parlayed his aborted post-secondary education into a career as a slythmonger, a hustler of pharmaceutical contraband in the entertainment districts of Coruscant. His bestseller? Death sticks - treated Ixetal cilona extract that offers euphoria in exchange for a shortened life. His Balosar physiology gives him a heightened resistance to the more damaging side effects of the drug, but he too is an addict. It is only the quality of his product that gains him any popularity in the seedy Coruscant scene. In truth, the clubbers view him as little more than an oily, awkward, embarrassing parasite.

Death Sticks

Death sticks were a widespread problem in Coruscant. The potent drug, developed in Coco Town's illegal pharmaceutical labs, resulted in thousands of deaths and millions of addicts in communities throughout Galactic City. Users experienced a temporary explosion of bliss when they administered a death stick dosage, neither noticing nor caring that the drug was killing them at the same time. Death sticks came in two forms, both derived from treated Ixetal cilona extract and sold in clear tubes, both offering the same effects to the user. Liquid sticks were imbibed (usually mixed with drinks) or injected, while hard sticks, which contained dried granules of the drug, were crushed, then smoked or inhaled. Slythmongers, the street term for death stick dealers, spread the drug from the decadent nobles in the entertainment district, to the desperate indigents in the Southern Underground. Death sticks were highly addictive, each dosage only increasing the users craving, which made slythmonging a very profitable venture.

Model: Ixetal Cilona Extract Drug (fluid or solid)
Type: Narcotic
Availability: 3, X
Game Notes: Users experience a temporary explosion of bliss. Anyone who samples a death stick must make a Difficult willpower skill check. If failed, the character suffers a -1D penalty to both his Dexterity and Knowledge attributes. After 1-2 hours, the effects wear off, and the character must attempt a Very Difficult Strength check. Failure indicates addiction and the loss of -1 pips of Strength (which is permanent, unless treated). Anyone wishing to break their addiction can seek treatment, but this is costly. At the GM's option, lost points of Strength can be recovered by using the (A) medicine skill (difficulty equal to 20, +1 per lost point of Strength), or the Accelerate Healing or Accelerate Another's Healing Force powers.

Kalyn Farnmir

Kalyn Farnmir was a member of the Kuati Security Forces, until she was set up by corrupt KDY officers to take the fall for their underhanded dealings fencing corporate secrets to Neimoidian agents. After being unceremoniously discharged, she put her skills to use as a bounty hunter and continued to bring the lawless to justice. She took on a partner, the skilled slicer Cian Shee, and the two enjoyed some level of success ferreting out small-time criminals and corporate thieves. One night on Coruscant, an informant told Farnmir that sinister elements of the Zealots of Psusan cult were planning revenge for her bringing down their corrupt High Priest, Scri Oscuro. Oscuro had been using the church as a front for illicit activities. This informant also told her that Cian was in on the plot and was about to sell Farnmir out. Shee was to receive a hefty payout for her role in their final betrayal. Shaken, Kalyn had to know the truth for herself. Knowing that Zealots of Psusan were enjoying a flash of popularity in the trendy districts of Coruscant, she invited Cian to meet at the Outlander Club to discuss work. Farnmir arrived first. Scoping out the flesh on display at the club, she spotted several distinctive Psusan designs. She easily intimidated and interrogated Nyrat Agira, who was able to confirm that the High Priest was on Coruscant, and that he had had meetings with Cian Shee. Kalyn knew what had to be done. When Cian arrived, Kalyn pretended nothing was wrong, and acted friendly to allay suspicion. Seeing a Jedi mete out his own brand of justice in the club that night steeled her resolve. As the two left the club, Farnmir tried to pin Shee before she could spring her attack, but Shee's reflexes enabled her to avoid capture. She fled into the night.

Dexter Jettster

Many in the Coco Town district knew that Dexter Jettster was not only the source of quick and hearty meals, but also unerring information on an astonishing array of topics. Dexter's past included work with expeditionary oil-harvesting crews, manning rigs, running guns, tending bar, and brawling for a living. With his latest endeavor, Dex's Diner, he hoped to make a fresh and stable start, and enjoyed the more sedate and quiet life of a cook. Dex first met Obi-Wan Kenobi when he was running a rough-and-tumble bar on Ord Sigatt, an Outer Rim mining world. Though Dex was on the wrong side of the law (his bar was a front for a gun-running racket), he took a liking to the young Jedi. Dex next opened a weapon shop on the Outland Transit Station, supplying mercenaries and bounty hunters alike. Narrowly escaping an attack on the station, Dex gave up the shadier life and sold the last of his wares, eventually settling on Coruscant.

WA-7 Server Droid

A spirited antique droid waitress, WA-7 served the patrons of Dexter's Diner with officious precision and the programmed equivalent of sass. A streamlined mechanical in a shape that suggests a humanoid female, WA-7 had a sleek build complete with a decorative metallic skirt and an agile unipod wheel. WA-7 featured a built-in order transmitter that kept her in touch with the kitchen at all times. A paired set of repulsor stabilizers helped her maintain balance as she rolled about on her unipod wheel. WA-7 disliked low tippers, and was often seen shamelessly flirting with the dishwasher unit.

Zam Wesell

Zam Wesell was a shapeshifting Clawdite bounty hunter from the planet Zolan. In her true form, Wesell was a green-skinned reptilian, although she often appeared as a beautiful woman with short reddish-blonde hair, a tight-fitting purple bodysuit and a veil over her face. Zam honed her skills among the Mabari, an ancient order of Zolan warrior knights. She achieved third level mastery in Mabari martial arts before fleeing Zolan for the megalopolitan world of Denon. Amidst the immense cities of that center of commerce, Zam made a name for herself as a corporate security sergeant and later, an executive bodyguard. Zam preferred the solitude that came with that vocation. She would occasionally team up with Jango Fett, a bounty hunter she met on Oovo IV while tracking down smuggler Bendix Fust. Once, after inadvertently delivering a deadly weapon into the hands of a known terrorist, Wesell and Fett joined forces to prevent a planet-wide cataclysm. While not exactly close, the two hunters shared a mutual respect for one another. They continued to collaborate after Fust was turned in to Sebolto. Jango had been working a larger job, tracking Komari Vosa, a former Jedi who had become the leader of the death-obsessed Bando Gora cult. After Sebolto's clues led Jango and Wesell to Tatooine, Wesell was forced to betray Jango to save herself from Gardulla the Hutt. Nevertheless, Jango escaped certain death and found what he needed from Gardulla, killing her as a favor to Jabba the Hutt. For her treason, Jango left Wesell in Gardulla's dungeon. Somehow, she managed to escape and track Jango to one of the moons of Bogden, headquarters of the Bando Gora. Jango was captured by Komari Vosa and only Wesell's timely interference saved him, though her blasts were deflected by Vosa's twin lightsabers. Before Vosa could finish her, Zam blasted the bonds holding Jango, allowing him to rush for his weapons. Startled, Vosa fled, but not before Jango reached her and after a long battle, defeated her. As Jango carried the wounded Wesell back to the Slave I, he explained that he had been hired by Darth Tyranus, otherwise known as former Jedi Count Dooku, to become the template for an army of clones on Kamino, and stranger still, he had asked Tyranus to give him one unaltered clone to raise as his son. Though Wesell thought the idea rather silly, she eventually had an almost maternal relationship with Jango's son, Boba Fett. Though she and Jango considered each other romantic interests, their relationship never went beyond partner, as their careers came first. Though both Wesell and Jango preferred working alone, they would team up from time to time. Around ten years after they first met, Jango was hired by Count Dooku and Nute Gunray to assassinate Senator Padmé Amidala. In order to keep the plot a secret, Jango sub-contracted the hit to Wesell. At first, she planted explosives on the senator's landing platform, but killed her decoy instead. Jango then provided her with deadly kouhuns, which she loaded into her assassin droid ASN-121 to slip them into the senator's bedroom. Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi foiled the assassination attempt, and used the droid to track Zam down and as she escaped in her personal speeder. They chased her through the skies of Coruscant, until Wesell crash-landed near the seedy Outlander Club. She hid for a few moments and attempted to sneak up on Kenobi, but his Jedi reflexes allowed him to dismember her. When Skywalker pressed Wesell to reveal who had hired her, Jango was forced to silence her with a Kamino saberdart. Jango then returned to Kamino, and his return marked the only occasion his son had ever seen him emotionally disturbed.

All In a Day's Work

Hanging on the underside of a floating private landing platform, kilometers above Coruscant's surface, would be enough to wreck anybody's nerves. For bounty hunter Zam Wesell it was just another day's work. Tightening her adhesion discs and prepping the explosives, Zam considered what easy credits this mission was proving to be; later she'd really have to thank Jango for subcontracting this hit. She was on a remarkable lucky streak. Her careful, intricate plans for getting to the platform had proven completely unnecessary, when, at the last minute, a heavy fog descended on this sector of Galactic City. Acting on instinct is what makes a great bounty hunter, and Zam didn't stall. Grabbing an ascension gun and setting her Koro-2 airspeeder on auto-pilot, she had approached the underside of the landing platform in an unsuspicious vector and fired her cable. Hitting a landing platform was easier than shooting Gungans in a barrel, even in this heavy fog, from a moving vehicle, and at maximum range. This was a very easy job; the security on the platform had never noticed anything as she reeled herself upwards. Zam opened a maintenance hatch and looked in. Planting the explosives inside would ensure that the blast went upwards to the senator's ship, instead of downwards. She removed a detonite cube from her backpack and affixed it to the platform. Medium Nubian Transport, shields probably activated... ten kilograms should do. Better make it twelve, just to be on the safe side. There could be no mistakes. Jango was counting on her and she didn't like to let him down. This was a job for Lord Tyranus, the same man who hired Jango for the Kamino operation. Thinking of Kamino reminded her of Boba. Blast, she really missed the kid. She'd known him since his birth (if that could be called birth); she'd taught him how to read, how to pilot an airspeeder, and how to fire a slugthrower rifle. She was the closest thing he had to a mother. Well, besides that Kaminoan psychologist, Taun We... Shrugging against the cold wind, Zam prepped another detonite charge. Of course, this was the fun part of the job. Everything up to this point had been terribly dull. Acquiring the target senator's landing schedule had not been difficult. Apparently Lord Tyranus had some incredibly well-placed friend in the Republic, which facilitated matters. The really dull part of the job had been fulfilling the "catch" (and every job has a "catch"): the assassination had to look like it was the work of disgruntled miners from Naboo's moon. People often dismissed the threat posed by a Clawdite shapeshifter on account of their inability to mimic a specific person. However, what they fail to acknowledge is that you don't need to transform into an existing person, if you can create an identity for whatever person you manage to transform into. Scratching her beard, Zam recalled the month spent on Rori, the swampy moon of Naboo, establishing her miner persona's identity. What a dreadful time she'd had there, posing as a human male spice miner, getting involved with the Miners Union and associating herself with a group particularly discontented with Naboo's policies. Now she just had to make sure she was identified acting suspiciously around the target platform, and the trail would lead them to the Naboo miners. Zam would deal with that later; now she had to install the detonator. An antigrav trigger, activated by the ship's landing repulsorlifts, should do the trick. Set the delay for twenty seconds, to account for any landing difficulties... With this weather, better make it thirty seconds. There can be no mistakes. Closing the maintenance hatch, Zam considered whether or not she should also rig the secondary platforms. No sense in doing that; the Nubian transport couldn't possibly fit on one of those, and those senator types wouldn't be caught dead flying a snubfighter. Besides, if the fighter escorts landed first, detonating the explosives, it would all be lost. No, there could be no mistakes. Now Zam only had to figure out a way to get out of there. Since she'd scrapped her original plan, instead taking advantage of the fog's cover, she didn't really have a means of escaping the platform. Well, she would just have to improvise, then. Acting on instinct is what makes a great bounty hunter, and Zam didn't stall.

Kouhun

Kouhun worms were vermiform arthropods with poisonous stingers and teeth. While the stinger poison was only painful for most creatures, the bite poison was lethal for human-sized or smaller beings. They were native to Indoumodo, but could also be found on many planets of the Outer Rim. Two kouhun worms were used by the bounty hunter Zam Wesell in an attempted assassination of Senator Amidala.

Koro-2 Airspeeder

Zam Wesell typically used stolen and disposable speeders on her routine assignments, but when a job called for raw speed and performance, she brought in her own personal model. Her Koro-2 exodrive airspeeder was a lean getaway vessel, with no offensive armaments. The Desler Gizh Outworld Mobility Corporation built the craft to survive in hostile environments, and as such it had a contained and pressurized cabin with a two-week air supply. While the Koro-2 employed standard repulsorlifts for altitude, it featured an uncommon external electromagnetic-propulsion system. The forward mandibles intensely irradiated the air around them, inducing ionization and making it conductive. Paired electrodes then electrified the airstream, and it was magnetically propelled toward the rear of the craft, resulting in the air literally dragging the vessel through the skies at speeds approaching 800 kilometers per hour. The speeder wasn't designated to fly in crowded urban zones such as those on Coruscant, and the radiation spill and noxious wake of the craft were several of the deleterious side effects to which Zam was indifferent.

Ansion

Nestled between The Malarian Alliance and the Keitumite Mutual Military Treaty was the not-so-insignificant planet of Ansion. Located in the Mid Rim, Ansion was the linchpin to several treaties and alliances that held several sectors of the Mid Rim together. Ansion was a wind-blown planet with vast prairies and grasslands. There were several different species that inhabited the planet of Ansion, but the native Ansionians made up most of the population, even though there were few Humans, Armalats and even a Hutt or two. The capital city of Ansion was Cuipernam, located on the Sorr-ul-Paan Plateau. Cuipernam was the center of commerce, designed to accommodate the native Alwari and their trading carts. As the city grew, more offworld businessbeings established their companies in Cuipernam, and thus credits flowed freely through the city. Ansion's only major spaceport was located near Cuipernam. The other three major cities were Doigon, Flerauw and Dashbalar. The vast majority of Ansion was open prairies and grasslands, home to a spiky tumbleweed called the Chawix that impaled its prey. The skies could become as dark as night when a flock of insects called Kyren, 100 million strong, flew overhead. Another species native to Ansion were the Suubatars, furry six-legged omnivores, often used as swift and sure transportation.

Suubatar

The omnivorous suubatar has evolved into one of the most successful predators on the planet of Ansion. The furry six-legged beasts are three times as tall as a human and stand on wide-splayed toes that end in long claws. Its smooth, tapered skull hints that it is a creature of impressive speed. Suubatars pump their six muscular legs when in full gait, gripping the grasslands with their claws, and launching themselves across the prairies in a speedy, yet smooth, run. The creatures are covered in green stripes unique to each individual and sandy brown underbellies that act as camouflage in their natural prairie habitat. Though their diets can be as widely varied as that of a Human, their protruding canines, flattened skulls, and snakelike, unhinged jaw give their faces the look of savage attack animal.

Ansionian

The Ansionians were slender humanoids with pale-yellow skin. Shorter than the average human, they were hairless, save for a single brush of dense fur about fifteen centimeters wide that ran from their foreheads to the tip of a short tail. Although the color varied naturally across the whole spectrum, many Ansionians dyed their manes in a variety of colors and patterns. The Ansionians were divided among two distinct groups: the city dwellers, who lived in one of Ansion's four major cities, and the Alwari Nomads, who lived on the windswept prairies. The Alwari were traditionalists at heart, and had adapted modern technology to their own uses. Even glowlamps were modified to flicker, like the natural flames used by their ancestors. When Ansion started thinking about seceding from the Republic, the Alwari were certain that the Republic - especially the Jedi Knights sent to settle the dispute - sided with the city dwellers. The Alwari were led by the overclans of the Borokii and the Januul. The Situng Borokii were one of the two most powerful overclans of the Alwari Ansionians, during the past decade they had been challenged in size and power only by the Hovsgol Januul overclan. Like the Januul, the Borokii overclan was made up from several smaller clans, forming a large unit. The Borokii and Januul had been enemies for many generations, until Obi-Wan Kenobi and Luminara Unduli, along with their Padawans Anakin Skywalker and Barriss Offee, met to discuss a treaty between not only the Borokii and Januul, but between the Alwari and the city-dwelling Ansionians of Cuipernam. The Jedi hoped to avoid the secession of Ansion from the Republic. After Obi-Wan and Luminara were able to establish peace between the Borokii and Januul, both overclans agreed to the treaty with the city dwellers.

Subterrel

Subterrel was located in the Outer Rim near wild space in the Subterrel Sector. Subterrel was known all over the galaxy for its vast mining operations. These mines were operated by everything from Kaminoan clones to Polis Massans. There were no major cities, just underground mining colonies. The biggest of these mining colonies was owned and operated by the Kaminoans. The Kaminoans used their cloning technology to engineer clones designed specifically to work in this type of underground terrain. The name "Subterrel" most likely stemmed from the root word "subterranean", giving a clue to how the planet was inhabited. Subterrel had no moons and the closest planet to it was Polis Massa. The inhabitants of both planets had regular dealings.

Naboo

The third of five planets orbiting a yellow star in the Chommell sector, Naboo was first settled by human colonists from the planet Grizmallt thousands of years ago. Naboo was inhabited by peaceful humans known as the Naboo, and an indigenous species of intelligent amphibians called the Gungans. Naboo's river cities were resplendent with classical architecture and greenery, while the underwater Gungan settlements were a beautiful display of exotic hydrostatic bubble technology. Naboo had long been an enigma to astrophysicists. Its porous, plasma-rich interior and lack of a molten core was a phenomenon not found on any known planet in the galaxy. The surface of Naboo was covered by dense swamps, rolling grass plains, and verdant hills. The largest mountain chain, the Gallo Mountains, bisected the largest continent and divided the great grass plains of the north from the Lianorm Swamp in the south. South of the Lianorm Swamp was Paonga Sea, where at the bottom lay the Gungan city of Otoh Gunga. Underneath the planet's surface was a tremendous maze of passages and caves, home to immense aquatic animals and creatures that were never seen on the surface. Gungans dominated these 'underwaterways', using them as a highway of sorts between their surface Holy Places and their underwater cities.

Naboo Politics

After Queen Amidala stepped down from her position as Naboo's elected monarch, Queen Jamillia took up the crown. Like her predecessor, she was regal and dignified, though not as young as Padmé had been during her reign. During the Separatist crisis, millions of loyal citizens were displaced as worlds seceded from the Republic. When Coruscant began restricting immigration to better deal with port crowding and security concerns, the worlds of the Mid Rim opened up their borders. Jamillia, a compassionate ruler, loosened Naboo's immigration policies to accept the influx of refugees. Naboo was not entirely free from trouble, however. Migrant workers staged protests about their work conditions, only to be forcibly removed by Theed police. Naboo's leaders were largely sheltered from these events by their security advisors in order to preserve - for the time being at least - the utopian outlook of which the planet was so proud.

Queen Jamillia

Queen Jamillia was the successor of Queen Amidala, formally styled as Her Royal Highness, Queen Jamillia of Naboo. Jamillia, like her predecessor, was a young woman when elected (though not as young as Padmé Amidala was during her first term), with a regal and dignified bearing. Jamillia wore many of the same symbols of office as Amidala did. Her white face paint was also decorated with the symmetrical beauty marks and the lip-dividing "scar of remembrance." Her regal accent of enunciated consonants pointed to her roots in Naboo's southeastern regions. Jamillia's predecessor, after serving two successful four-year terms as Queen, was popular enough that many of the Naboo wanted to amend their constitution to allow Amidala to serve a third term. However, Padmé Amidala graciously declined the honor, and Jamillia became Naboo's next elected monarch. The new Queen asked her still-popular predecessor to continue her career in public service by becoming Naboo's Senator, even though Amidala had reached the normal age for the Naboo to retire from politics and was well within her rights to do so. Padmé agreed and became Naboo's representative in the Galactic Senate. After surviving a Separatist-backed assassination attempt, Padmé left Coruscant for the safety of Naboo. Jamillia was responsible for finding a safe-house in the Lake District of Naboo where the senator could secretly find refuge. During the Separatist crisis, Jamillia was one of many planetary rulers who opened up their worlds to aid many refugees loyal to the Galactic Republic who were fleeing the worlds seceding from the Republic.

Theed

One of the major cities on Naboo was the city of Theed. Points of interest in Theed included the Hall of Perri-Teeka, a breathtaking monument to a revered statesman; Broadbery Meadow, a secluded garden reachable only by boat; the banqueting rotunda built by the Earl of Vis, a cousin of the old king; Guido's Tower, one of the oldest structures in the city; the Parnelli Museum of Art; Virdugo Plunge, the largest waterfall in Theed, fed by the Solleu River; and the new Palace Courtyard, built over a part of the city that had been severely bombed by the Trade Federation during their occupation of Naboo. This new enclosure was designed to foster and encourage principles of enlightened thought and practice. Theed's inhabitants would wander through the courtyard's graceful walkways and sit in the shade of the circular colonnade, within which a holographic frieze depicted great philosophers and artists from the planet's history. Dominating the land below the great cliffs, Theed Spaceport was an unprecedented development in the Naboo's tradition-bound culture. Its unadorned, functional construction was testament to the speed and urgency with which it had been built. The only nod to the Naboo design aesthetics was its elegantly curved docking platform, which mimicked the natural sweep of the cliffs. Built with reparation money from the Republic after the Trade Federation invasion, the spaceport accommodated the increased space traffic resulting from Senator Amidala's high-profile tenure. The spaceport also received immigrants seeking mining work on Naboo's spice-rich moons.

Lake Country

The Lake Country was a remote area of the planet Naboo that was dominated by beautiful lakes, surrounded by mountains and valleys. Wide meadows of grass and wildflowers, communally owned by the Pastoral Collective, sat among the waterfalls and lakes, and much of the planet's native shaak population made their homes there. In springtime, the festival of Glad Arrival was held there, when, for several days, the meadows were transformed by colorful pageants and music-making. The Lake Country was sealed off from Naboo's underground waterways and caverns, making the lakes safe from sea monsters. The sparse population was made up mostly of farmers and hermit-craftsworkers famed for their almost mystically bewitching glassworks. On the lake's most distant island stood the large Varykino villa, owned by the Naberrie family. The house had been occupied centuries earlier by the tragic Naboo poet Omar Berenko, who had lived in an unconventional community of Naboo - and even Gungan - outsiders.

Shaaks were plump quadrupedal herd animals, often raised for their meat. They were native to the grasslands of Naboo, where they grazed on flowers and grass. Shaaks had multiple wombs, allowing for a remarkable reproduction rate. They were good swimmers, but often tumbled over waterfalls. The calm and friendly shaak was a harmless creature. Moving in herds, shaaks roamed the plains of Naboo in order to find sustenance: flowers and young shoots of tall grass. Shaaks did not confine themselves to one region, and could be found in most dry areas on Naboo. Not fond of damp surroundings, shaaks avoided the numerous swamps of their home planet. The rather weak four-legged beast was rarely used as a pack animal and never as a mount, but it constituted an excellent source of food for the peoples of Naboo. Shaak meat could be easily stored and required little preparation before consumption.

Forbidden Union

Anakin Skywalker stands with his arms crossed, overlooking the sparkling blue lake; he can't help but think about the many events that have taken place over the past two weeks. He's been through so much to just be standing there, the loss of his mother, the Jedi lost at Geonosis and, of course, the loss of his arm by Count Dooku. He continues to struggle daily with what happened on Tatooine, not just the death of his mother, but the slaughter of an entire village of Tuskens. But here he stands, here on Naboo under a rose-covered arbor. Anakin and Padmé stand hand in hand. Anakin in his formal Jedi robes, Padmé in a beautiful white gown with flowered trim. Anakin's new mechanical arm hangs at his side, the fingers clenching and opening in a reflexive movement. Before them stands a Naboo holy man, his hands raised above their heads as he recites the ancient texts of marriage. And when the proclamation is made, R2-D2 and C-3PO, bearing witness to the union, whistle and clap. And Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala share their first kiss as husband and wife.

Kamino

Kamino was the watery world where the Clone Army for the Republic was created. It was inhabited by a race of tall, elegant creatures, called Kaminoans, who kept to themselves and were known for their cloning technology. Kamino was located just south of the Rishi Maze, inside a dwarf satellite galaxy in a decaying orbit around the main galaxy, beyond the Outer Rim. Kamino had never recovered from the global warming that melted huge shelves of inland continental ice. Its oceans swelled, covering the landmasses, forcing the native Kaminoans to adapt. Their stilt cities echoed their former land colonies, but were built to withstand the ceaseless storms that buffeted the world. The amphibious Kaminoans often traveled between their stilt-cities on cloned aiwhas, animals that could both fly and swim. For much of the year, severe electrical storms raged across the planet. At these times, Kaminoan aiwha-riders tended to travel underwater to escape the lashing tempests, surfacing as they neared their destination. Another, more unusual imperative drove the Kaminoans under the waves - pilgrimages to the sunken cities on the seabed, relics of the ancient land-based Kaminoan civilization that existed before the entire planet was flooded. These sacred journeys were made purely to honor their ancestors, rather than for scientific or archeological research, and seemed highly inconsistent with the Kaminoans' more characteristic scientific rationalism. Though the Kaminoans turned to genetic sciences to counteract the hardships of the planet's environmental chaos, they were not self-sufficient. They traded their advanced cloning knowledge in exchange for vital raw materials. Though few were privy to such knowledge, the Kaminoans were reputed to be the best cloners in the galaxy. In addition to creating clones, the Kaminoans produced a range of specialized, high-tech weapons and missiles for a number of clients, for example, interrogation devices and an array of saberdarts, mainly for use by professional bounty hunters and security specialists. The cloners subcontracted the manufacturing of larger weapons and vehicles for their clone armies to off-world suppliers such as Rothana Heavy Engineering.

Aiwha

Aiwhas and similar creatures could be found on several worlds, including Naboo and Kamino. On Naboo, they lived in medium-size "pods," feeding on surface-dwelling krill and the fishes found in the huge Naboo lakes. Like other cetaceans, aiwhas filtered food through the sieveplates in their baleen. The Gungans of Naboo had domesticated aiwhas to accept mounts and provide airborne transportation. Aiwhas employed a water-vascular system that allowed them to control their relative density. When they needed to swim underwater, their spongy tissues absorbed water. When flight was required, they expelled this water and shed it to lighten themselves.

Tipoca City

The capital city of Kamino and home to a major cloning facility was Tipoca City. The city consisted of a network of stilt structures that spanned 150,000 kilometers along Kamino's western equator and was considered by many to be the heart of Kaminoan society. The millions of Kaminoans who occupied Tipoca worked either with the cloning program or with the bureaucracy, activities that were closely interlinked in Kaminoan society. The only living spaces in the city were the quarters of the prime minister and the military staff, and a group of apartments for cloning scientists. The scientists resided in Tipoca in alternating shifts of three months each before returning to their homes and families. There were no public spaces within the capital city, and all other Kaminoans who worked there lived in numerous satellite cities situated around the capital. Constant traffic ran to and from Tipoca, as workers, bureaucrats, and many others traveled to and from their homes. The center at Tipoca extended throughout the domes, and included cloning hatcheries, growth pods, learning and training facilities, as well as dormitories and dining halls for the products. The Clone Military Education Complex was the biggest training center on Kamino, being fully committed to fulfilling the Republic contract. The first Republic batch consisted of 200,000 clone troops, while facilities across the planet were equipped to produce millions more. Clones received extensive military experience, from hand-to-hand combat on upper training floors to battle training in a variety of simulated landscapes on kilometer-wide rooms located in the base of the domes. These environments could consist of anything from desert terrain to snow-blasted mountains, thanks to atmospheric systems that created climate and weather conditions, and repulsor-lifted floor plates which could shift to produce a variety of geological features. Aside from the governmental and clone manufacturing functions, Tipoca City also served as the seat of both the Kamino Space Control and the Kamino Planetary Defense Forces. Most of the Space Control's data came from the huge communication towers that dominated much of the city's skyline. Largely due to the cloning facilities' importance to Kamino, the Planetary Defense Forces were coordinated from Tipoca. The city relied on passive measures (in the form of energy shielding) and more "proactive" turbolaser emplacements. Because the defensive shields provided little protection against troop invasions, the KPD also retained thousands of Kaminoan soldiers in the barracks. Tipoca City's architecture was influenced by two primary architectural styles originating from Alderaan and Kashyyyk. The concept for the city being built on stilts was derived from the Alderaanian Oversea style. Middle-period Krorral was adopted in the form of the sweeping and centralized dome structures. An additional appeal of the Krorral element was that the rain-sloughing nature of the architecture bore numerous similarities to the first Kaminoan land colonies. Despite the severity of weather conditions on Kamino, landing platforms on the planet were generally uncovered. A shield generator array on the underside, however, could be activated to protect the ship from power overloads during electrical storms.

Lama Su

Lama Su was a male Kaminoan who served as Prime Minister of Kamino at the beginning of the Clone Wars. He lived in the planet's capital, Tipoca City. As head of the ruling council of Kamino colony governors, Lama Su was one of the select Kaminoans to deal directly with offworlders. Despite this, he was still rather ignorant of Human customs and behavior. He recognized how vital cloning was to Kamino's economy, and took it upon himself to personally give visiting Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi a tour of the facility. He eagerly explained the cloning process, as well as the behavioral conditioning and combat training of the clone troopers. In his eagerness, Lama Su ignored the Jedi's apparent ignorance of the entire Clone Army project.

KE-8 Enforcer Ship

The KE-8 Enforcer was the primary starfighter of the Kaminoans. The KE-8 was used to protect the floating cities of Kamino, the Clone Military Education Complex, and the vital cloning facilities contained therein. It was also used for isolating clones straying from the process and for finding new and better ways to deal with them. The KE-8 was a single-being craft, measuring thirteen meters in height and four meters across. While capable of space flight, the KE-8 primarily relied on its advanced bay of repulsors. To keep clones in line and detect aberrants, the KE-8 was armed with a sophisticated sensor suite and an electroshock stun device. It also had a pair of manipulator arms that could be used to move materials, although those generally required a co-pilot to operate.

Jango Fett

Jango Fett was already renowned as the finest bounty hunter in the galaxy when he was approached by the mysterious Lord Tyranus about a bounty. Jango was hired to track down and neutralize Dooku's former Jedi Padawan Komari Vosa, now a deranged leader of a crime syndicate known as the Bando Gora. Jango eventually tracked Vosa to her hideout on Kohlma, a burial moon of Bogden, where he fought and defeated the dark Jedi. The bounty had been a test of Jango's skills against a Jedi, and Lord Tyranus was impressed with the results. He made Fett an offer he couldn't refuse and, before long the bounty hunter had agreed to relocate to Tipoca City on Kamino. Jango allowed himself to be cloned by the Kaminoans, who used his genetic model to create an army of genetically modified troopers apparently commissioned by Jedi Master Sifo-Dyas on behalf of the Republic. Jango was handsomely paid, and lived in comfort on Tipoca, free to come and go as he pleased, on the condition he helped train the clone army. In addition, Jango made one further demand of the Kaminoans: an unaltered clone of himself whom he named Boba. Jango emerged from Kamino only when the price was right, occasionally collaborating with Zam Wesell on especially demanding missions. Boba had given Jango a good reason to stay alive, and he was now content for Zam to risk her neck on his behalf. Obi-Wan Kenobi first encountered Jango Fett when the rocket man swooped into the smog-filled sky of Coruscant after killing Zam Wesell with a toxic saberdart. Jango had a reputation for ruthlessness towards victims that extended to expendable colleagues such as Zam. He subsequently proved himself powerful in close combat with Obi-Wan, who struggled to overcome the well-equipped warrior after tracing him back to Kamino. Jango's armour bristled with weaponry and gadgets, including retractable wrist-blades, a snare, and a rocket-firing jetpack. Jango and Boba escaped in the Slave I, but Kenobi tracked them to Geonosis, where he learned that Jango and Count Dooku were in league with the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Kenobi was captured and sentenced to death in the arena for espionage, as were Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala, who had come to rescue him. Count Dooku, Nute Gunray, Gilramos Libkath, Jango, and his son Boba were special guests at the execution when a Jedi taskforce led by Mace Windu intervened. In the chaos that followed, Mace Windu decapitated Jango with a single stroke of his lightsaber - a sight that his son Boba witnessed firsthand.

Slave I

Originally, the Slave I was a police vehicle from the asteroid prison Oovo IV. When Jango Fett was collecting a bounty on the asteroid prison, he was unable to return to his former ship Jaster's Legacy due to Zam Wesell's interference. He escaped with one of the new Firesprays docked in the hangar and destroyed all of the others, making the Slave I ship model a rather rare one.

Boba Fett

Boba Fett was created by Kaminoans as an unaltered clone, at the request of his "father," Jango Fett, before the start of the Clone Wars. He was intended to be both Jango's heir and "Jaster Mereel's Legacy". As a young boy, Fett grew up on the planet Kamino. Jango raised and cared for him with the assistance of the Kaminoan, Taun We, who ultimately took on the role of being a foster mother to him. Along with the Clawdite Zam Wesell, she was the sole female influence in young Fett's life. Boba was very fond of books, which he commonly checked out and read from the library of Tipoca City. Boba Fett was ten years old when Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi came to Kamino to investigate the mysterious creation of a clone army for the Republic.

Bogden

Bogden was located in the Inner Rim, near the Hydian Way, between Arkania and Ploo. It was orbited by at least 19 moons, the most famous of those being Bogg 4 or Kohlma. Following a catastrophic war on Bogden, Kohlma was set up as a memorial tomb for those who had fallen. It would later be the hideout for Komari Vosa and her cult, the Bando Gora. It would also be where Jango Fett was recruited by Darth Tyranus to become the template of the clone army. Boba Fett visited the moon ten years later. The moon suffered severe gravitational tides, resulting in a constantly shifting landscape. The planet of Bogden suffered from the same fate, the surface was literally being pulled apart. The few that called Bogden home were forced to adapt to the shifting seismic terrain. This made for the perfect home for outlaws on the run, smugglers and bounty hunters.

Tatooine

Tatooine was a desert planet in a binary star system (the two suns were named Tatoo I & Tatoo II), inhabited by poor locals who mostly farmed moisture for a living. The planet had been the site of repeated and failed attempts at colonization. Before the Clone Wars, it was ruled for a long period by the Hutts, being beyond the reach of the Galactic Republic. Due to not being a member of the Republic, Republic Credits were rarely used by merchants on the planet, who preferred to use Peggats, Truguts or Wupiupi. Notable geological features included the Dune Sea, an enormous desert, and the Jundland Wastes, a rocky region. Despite the planet's extreme aridity, some forms of life did thrive on Tatooine, including the rodent-like womp rat, elephant-like bantha, and the enormous, fearsome krayt dragon. Tatooine was also home to two apparently native sentient bipedal species: Jawas, pygmy-like mechanical scavengers, and Tusken Raiders, also known as Sand People, who were mysterious, reclusive, and extremely hostile to outsiders. Both races wore fully-concealing robes that kept their true forms hidden from outsiders.

Settlements

Tatooine had several sizable settlements, the largest of which was the spaceport Mos Eisley, widely known for its rough-and-tumble nature and vast criminal underworld. Other settlements included Bestine, Anchorhead, Tosche Station, Mos Entha, Wayfar and Mos Espa, home of a sector-famous podracing track. The city of Mos Espa had been the home of Anakin and Shmi Skywalker and also held the famous Mos Espa Grand Arena, at which the annual Boonta Eve Classic podrace was held. Mos Espa consisted of the dome-roofed, adobe buildings found in cities across Tatooine, and was said to appear as a great, twisting snake, hunkered down to escape the heat. Most residents were either involved in crime business with the Hutts or poor shopkeepers and moisture farmers trying to eke out a living in the inhospitable desert. The biggest retail business in Mos Espa seemed to be junk-dealing, and even small dealers like Watto the Toydarian managed to rake in a substantial amount of money. Mos Espa was dotted with dozens of small to mid-size docking bays, equipped for refueling and general repairs. Many bays were rented by spacers running missions ranging from simple cargo and passenger delivery to smuggling of contraband. Arrivals were usually greeted with a flood of mechanics-for-hire, droid taxis, con-artists, beggars, and courtesans. Mos Eisley spaceport town was located roughly 50 miles north from Anchorhead. It contained 362 docking bays and housed a population of around 40 to 60 thousand people, varying seasonally. Anchorhead was one of the oldest settlements located on the planet, having stood for over 4,000 years. Originally a mining outpost, Anchorhead had been abandoned and resettled many times, as each mining company came to discover the poor quality of the ore located there. The companies would abandon their equipment each time, due to the prohibitive costs of transporting them off-world, and the indigenous Jawas would take them as their own. This gave rise to the use of Sandcrawlers, mobile smelting machines, as mobile homes for the Jawas.

Watto

Watto was a Toydarian merchant who lived on Tatooine. He owned a junkyard in Mos Espa from which he sold a variety of used mechanical parts, ranging from spaceship parts to droid components. He was also a keen gambler, often betting on the local podraces, and occasionally even entering his own pod and pilot in the races. Watto also treated his slaves more humanely than most others. The former owner of Anakin Skywalker and Shmi Skywalker, he lost young Anakin in a wager to Qui-Gon Jinn concerning the outcome of the Boonta Eve Classic. Losing this bet marked the beginning of a period in Watto's life during which he lost many of his assets. This included Shmi Skywalker, who he was forced to sell to a moisture farmer named Cliegg Lars. Despite purchasing parts of the adjoining buildings in order to enlarge his junk shop, Watto's business future seemed uncertain thanks to numerous betting losses. His locales were also severely understaffed, with Watto doing most of the work himself. He was visited by Anakin and Padmé, when Anakin returned to Tatooine to find his mother.

RIC-920 General Purpose Droid

A utilitarian droid built for general-purpose applications, RIC-920 ended up functioning as a rickshaw droid in the busy streets of Mos Espa. Other RIC-units had found employ in professional sports, playing in widely broadcast games of nuna-ball. RIC-920 was a reliable, unsophisticated unipod droid of a model that had gone largely unchanged for centuries. The stoutly built droids had simplistic processors housed in their curved heads.

Tatooine Wilderness

The Dune Sea was a sand desert that stretched across Tatooine's wastes. In the Tatooine navigation system, it was located in the planet's first quadrant. This large area was once a large inland sea. Extreme temperatures and lack of water made the area inhospitable to most lifeforms. Forming the eastern border of the Western Dune Sea was the Jundland Wastes, a dry, hot, and rocky region that consisted of a canyon and mesa. It was dotted with unusual rock forms, many of which had significance to the Tusken tribes who had inhabited that area for thousands of years. One such feature was the 90-meter high B'Thazoshe Bridge (which translates into basic as "bantha horn turned to stone"). Formed by ancient drainage channels, it was the largest natural bridge on Tatooine. The bridge marked the boundary of the Tuskens' ancient hunting territory. Sand People had a tradition of firing into the air before passing through - failure to do so was said to bring bad luck to the tribe.

Tusken settlements were scattered across Tatooine's deserts. Because the Tuskens were a nomadic species, they kept few possessions beyond weapons and food stores, although they set great stores on the spoils of raids on Jawas or human settlers. These raids were not entirely mercenary, but were intrinsic to Tusken culture, which demanded that males prove their prowess or skill to maintain their standing in the tribe. Prisoners taken in a raid were subjected to harsh rituals; sometimes they were used to improve the breeding of the tribe.

Massiff

Massiffs were burly quadruped carnivores, standing about a meter tall at the shoulder. They had coarse skin, large jaws, toothy mouths, big dark eyes, and a line of hard spines along their backs. They were found on both Tatooine and Geonosis. The close proximity of Geonosis and Tatooine undoubtedly led to the migration of the creature from one world to another, most likely the result of careless traders introducing the animal into a new ecosphere. On Geonosis, massiffs were emblems of the Geonosian aristocracy, and domesticated massiffs were used to rid the hives of vermin. On occasion, massiffs were used in arena fighting. On Tatooine, they were similarly domesticated as camp guard animals.

See-Threepio

C-3PO was a protocol droid - a droid specifically designed to interact with organics. Threepio's TranLang III Communicator module combined with his AA-1 VerboBrain allowed him to be "fluent in over six million forms of communication." He was also equipped with "over thirty secondary functions". His main function as a protocol droid was to assist with etiquette, customs, and translation so that meetings of different cultures ran smoothly; a function he rarely performed during his first decade of existence on backwater Tatooine, being usually relegated to communicating with machinery. After Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala's visit to Tatooine, C-3PO left with his old master. He also became an unwilling combatant in the Battle of Geonosis when he went to find Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala. He found himself in a droid construction facility and, after being pushed onto one of the platforms by his 'friend' Artoo his head was taken off and temporarily attached to the torso of a B-1 battle droid, while the head of the droid was placed onto Threepio's torso. Threepio's troubled experience in the arena battlefield was cut short by Jedi Kit Fisto. After being rescued by Artoo and reunited with his body, C-3PO left Geonosis, and later became one of the only witnesses to Padmé and Anakin's marriage on Naboo.

Cliegg Lars

Cliegg Lars's father was a very kind moisture farmer on Tatooine, but the young Cliegg rebelled against the elder Lars and left Tatooine for the Core World of Ator. He married a young woman named Aika, and they had a son, Owen. Aika died when Owen was young, and a devastated Cliegg returned to Tatooine with his son, made amends with his father, and took over the family farm. During his routine trips to Mos Espa to acquire parts, Cliegg fell in love with Watto's slave, Shmi Skywalker. He eventually managed to purchase Shmi from Watto and subsequently freed and married her. Shmi often told her new family how much she missed her son Anakin who had been freed by a Jedi to join the Jedi Order years before. Years later, Cliegg was visited on Tatooine by Anakin and Padmé Amidala, who learned that Shmi had been abducted by Tusken Raiders a month before. Cliegg and a few other settlers had attempted to rescue her, but most of the settlers were killed and Cliegg lost his right leg from the knee-down. Anakin set off to rescue her, and eventually brought Shmi's body back to the Lars Homestead, where she was buried alongside Cliegg's first wife and parents.

Owen Lars

Owen lived with his father Cliegg on their moisture farm on Tatooine. He helped his father buy Shmi Skywalker from Watto. Shortly after freeing her and her son Anakin's protocol droid, C-3PO, Shmi and Cliegg married, making her Owen's stepmother. Shmi often told her new family how much she missed her son Anakin who had been freed by a Jedi to join the Jedi Order years before. Over the next few years, Owen met a beautiful girl named Beru Whitesun, and the two fell in love. Beru moved in with Owen and his family and they lived contentedly together. However, tragedy would soon strike when Shmi was kidnapped by Tusken Raiders, about a month before the start of the Clone Wars. Organizing a group of thirty other local settlers, Owen and Cliegg set out to find Shmi; however, it was a doomed mission, resulting in the loss of one of Cliegg's legs and the deaths of all but four of the settlers. Owen built a hover chair for his father to maneuver, following the loss of his leg. A number of weeks after Shmi's kidnapping, her Jedi son (now Owen's stepbrother), Anakin, came to the Lars' moisture farm looking for Shmi. Owen introduced himself and Beru to the guests, and Cliegg explained the Tusken Raiders' taking of Shmi. That night Anakin set out to look for Shmi on his own, and the next morning, he brought back Shmi's body. A small funeral was organized and soon, Anakin and Padmé left, and were allowed to take C-3PO with them.

They Came Just Before Dawn

From the notes of Jocasta Nu, Jedi Archivist.

Upon interviewing young Anakin Skywalker, I realized that more happened on Tatooine than he had let on. So I traveled back to the Lars homestead on Tatooine to ascertain what actually happened, because whatever it was had truly left a lasting effect on young Skywalker. The journey through Tatooine's desert wasteland, although uncomfortable, was eventless. Upon reaching the Lars homestead, I was greeted by the younger Lars, Owen. Cliegg, Owen's father, was fixing some damage to a moisture vaporator caused by a sandstorm the night before. When I asked what he knew about young Skywalker and his purpose on Tatooine a month prior, needless to say I was shocked by his answer. Owen said with a deep sigh and hesitation: "It was to visit his mother." "And how did that go?" I asked. "Not very well... One month prior, Mom, I mean Shmi, had been kidnapped by Tusken Raiders, while collecting mushrooms early that morning." Realizing that I was beginning to see why young Skywalker was so reluctant to comment, I continued: "What happened after the kidnapping?" "Dad organized the local farmers into a search party..." Young Owen seemed reluctant to go on. "What happened next?" I pressed on. "We were ambushed." The voice was stern and came from the front door. As I turned, I saw Cliegg Lars come through the door on his hoverchair. "They knew we would come, so they sat and waited." he said with great despair. "I had just warned her the day before not to go alone, but Shmi never listened; she went every morning." With a grim expression on his face, Cliegg settled his hoverchair by my side. Owen's girlfriend, Beru Whitesun, served us each a glass of blue milk. After a moment, Cliegg resumed his story: "When I realized Shmi had been taken by the Sand People, I immediately organized a search party. Moisture farmers live solitary lives, but we stick up for each other; soon I had a group of thirty men, armed with whatever they had. We headed out on speeder bikes, and not long afterwards we spotted the dust clouds coming from their Banthas. When we got within a few meters, I saw the trap, a wire cleverly strung across the field about head height to a man riding a speeder. I saw ten of my friends die instantly as they plowed headlong into the wire. I managed to leap from my speeder over the wire just in time, or so I thought. As I landed I felt a stab of pain come through my leg into my thigh. As I lay there in pain I saw the very familiar leather wrappings of a Tusken, and with all the rage and hate I could muster I reached out and tripped him. When he fell I crawled on top of him and strangled the savage until he didn't move. I then heard Owen yelling, and as I started to rise, I fell hard, my balance inexplicably gone. Confused I looked down expecting that another Tusken had tripped me. Then I realized that it was my body that had failed me; my leg was gone, evidently severed by the wire. The fighting continued for a while longer. Tuskens leaped out of the shadows, hacking at my friends with their gaffi sticks, while others fired their slugthrowers from the top of the rocks. We defended ourselves the best we could, until all of a sudden the Sand People turned away and headed into the deep desert. Out of the thirty farmers that went, only four came back, and all I could think of was how I had failed Shmi. I had come to the conclusion that my love was dead and I would never see her again, and then Anakin showed up. He was convinced that she still lived; I don't know if it was that Jedi stuff or just hope, but he set out after her on Owen's swoop bike. Next day around dinner he showed up with something wrapped in burlap on the back of the swoop. Even though I had already convinced myself that she was dead, seeing her like that brought it all back to me and I broke down. Later that same day we buried her." Cliegg took a deep, heartfelt breath, turned his hoverchair and headed out the door. Owen and I followed him for about several hundred feet, until we stopped at a wooden grave marker with flowers laid at its base. We stood in silence for several minutes, until Cliegg broke the silence: "The one thing I did not get to do was thank him, for at least bringing us a little peace." With that, everything became clear; young Skywalker was just saddened by the loss of his mother.

Zephyr-G Swoop

The Zephyr-G swoop was a swoop bike produced by Mobquet around thirty years before the Battle of Naboo. The Mobquet Zephyr-G was a utilitarian repulsorlift swoop, able to seat a single rider, though a passenger could perch somewhat uncomfortably on the drive section. The power generator was located at the rear of the bike, flanked by two cargo panniers capable of holding up to 100 kilograms of supplies. Owen Lars purchased his swoop bike from a Revwien trader in Mos Nytram. Already twenty years old at the time of purchase, the battered Zephyr-G was converted by Owen from a sports bike to work as a farm vehicle.

Beru Whitesun

Beru Whitesun was the girlfriend of Owen Lars. Of the local farming families, the Whitesuns were recognized as the most well adapted to the harsh desert climes of Tatooine, having pulled moisture from the parched skies for three generations. Beru grew up near Mos Eisley, but met Owen during a trip to Anchorhead. She fit in perfectly with the Lars family. As a young, shy girl, Beru Whitesun's aspirations did not venture beyond the horizon of Tatooine. She was content to marry Owen Lars and lead the tough life of a moisture farmer. Along with her husband, Beru proudly toiled under harsh conditions.

Shmi Skywalker Lars

Shmi Skywalker Lars was the mother of Anakin Skywalker. Shmi was sold to a very kind moisture farmer named Cliegg Lars. Lars freed and married Shmi, making her stepmother to Owen Lars. Shmi often told her new family how much she missed her son Anakin who had been freed by a Jedi to join the Jedi Order years before. During those years she kept a journal where she recorded events almost every day. This journal would eventually come into the possession of her granddaughter Leia Organa Solo many years later. About ten years after he left to join the Jedi, Anakin sensed through the Force that his mother was in pain. Anakin travelled to Tatooine to find her, and upon arriving learned that she had been abducted by a tribe of violent Tusken Raiders. Young Skywalker used his Jedi powers to find her inside one of their encampments just in time for her to die in his arms. Enraged, Anakin slaughtered every single Tusken Raider in the camp, including all the women and children. This was one of the first incidents where Anakin's potential to slide into the Dark Side of the Force was apparent. Anakin later took her body, completely wrapped up, back to the Lars Homestead where she was buried. Anakin voiced his regret in front of her grave that he could not save her.

Geonosis

Geonosis was a ringed planet beyond the borders of the Galactic Republic. Its uninviting surface was marked by mesas and buttes, and barren stretches of parched desert hardpan. The rocks and sky were tinted in red, and the creatures that evolved on Geonosis were well equipped to survive in the harsh ecology. Radiation storms occasionally blasted the surface, driving lifeforms underground for protection. Dense high-altitude fog produced gloomy, night-like conditions that could last for weeks. Life on Geonosis had adapted for such circumstances, and many creatures were bioluminescent. The rings that orbited Geonosis were a mixed blessing. Geonosians harvested their rich metallic content for raw materials used in their secretive manufacturing processes; however, the asteroids themselves formed a security liability. Corporate spies could hide within the ring, and asteroids falling through the atmosphere were so common that cunning pilots could exploit the laziness of Geonosian scanner operators by flying down to the surface with only the most basic of sensor stealth. A casual glance at the planet's desert plains would suggest the world was uninhabited, so carefully crafted was the Geonosian architecture. Immense, organic spires were actual hivemounds built by the Geonosians, and upon closer inspection, escaping steam and exhaust vents betrayed its artificial nature. Geonosians cultivated a parasitic creature called a phidna that excreted raw material that Geonosian artisans mixed with stone powders to form a rock paste substance. The most advanced lifeform on the planet were the Geonosians, sentient insectoids that inhabited towering spire-hives. The Geonosians maintained large factories for the production of droids and weapons. Save for attending to clients that ventured to the planet to place orders, the Geonosians typically kept to themselves. The droid foundries and the planet's remote location made it an ideal base of operations for the Separatist movement that spread through the galaxy in the later years of the Republic.

Sun Fac

Sun Fac was a Geonosian of the upper caste living in the Stalgasin hive on Geonosis. Sun Fac served as Archduke Poggle the Lesser's chief lieutenant. His position was evident in his sect-like wings. Like most other Geonosian aristocrats, he was ruthless in his management of the wingless lower-caste workers, forcing them to work in harsh conditions regardless of any dangers. As with most Geonosians, Sun Fac was strong, despite his slender build. His tough exoskeleton protected him from physical assaults and the bouts of radiation that occasionally showered Geonosis. Over time, Sun Fac, who ensured that his master's will was executed throughout Geonosis, proved to the Archduke that he was both unusually intelligent and very creative for a Geonosian. In the events leading to the Clone Wars, he also proved that he was as adaptable as intelligent. He was adept at playing any role required of him. Sun Fac could do it all - from supporting the Archduke to becoming a ruthless executioner. Prior to the Battle of Geonosis, Sun Fac convicted Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala of espionage, sentencing them to death in the Geonosian execution arena. He was responsible for delivering the verdict of the Geonosian court to the two Humans who had come to Geonosis in an attempt to rescue Obi-Wan Kenobi. The news was delivered to a courtroom filled with Separatist Senators, Trade Federation officials, Commerce Guild dignitaries, and InterGalactic Banking Clan members.

Geonosian Warriors

Along with the droid army, the Separatist forces were aided by the Geonosians, although they did not have a standing military. So they had to rely on their winged warrior caste. The Warrior Caste grew to adulthood rapidly, and was ready for combat at the age of six. They also formed the aristocracy of Geonosian society. While they possessed enough intelligence to defend their hives from natural predators, they proved easily conquerable by more sharp-witted foes. Like their society at large, the warrior caste was divided between the elite and the regulars. The elite warriors were genetically superior to the regulars, having greater abilities in the art of war. While the regulars were only equipped with weak force pikes, the elite were given beam weapons capable of cutting through the enemies' personal shielding and armor. These beam weapons, like their pilots and ships, were intricately connected to create the Geonosians' brand of a perfect warrior, unified and highly dangerous.

Geonosian aristocrats hold the power within their society, while the workers are considered more or less expendable.

Geonosian Starfighter

The Nantex-class Territorial Defense starfighter, also known as the Geonosian Starfighter, was a starfighter used by the Geonosians to guard their territories against intruders. It was a lean, needle-nosed fighter craft with great speed and superior agility. The Nantex was specifically designed for use by Geonosian pilots. The ship's complex multi-axis control yokes required a Geonosian's dexterity, while vital performance feedback was given to the pilot via a scent-stimulator mask that took advantage of the Geonosians' acute sense of smell. A single Geonosian pilot sat within a small cockpit with his head poking up to see out of a transparent bubble canopy allowing a 360-degree field of vision. The fighter's main weapon was a turret-mounted laser cannon cradled underneath its forward needles. In addition to the cannon, the fighter was also lined with dozens of small, independent-aiming tractor beam and repulsorlift generators. They could be used to give the Nantex increased maneuverability in an atmosphere, as well as to limit the mobility of enemy craft.

Droid Factory

The two major sites on the planet's surface were the Droid Foundries and the Geonosian execution arena. The Geonosis droid foundries were massive subterranean droid factories. The foundries were built by Baktoid Armor Workshop, a member of the Techno Union, in response to increasing legislation by the Republic against the legality of their industry. Hoping to circumvent these new laws, BAW began investing in production facilities outside the Republic's sphere of influence: more specifically, in the Outer Rim. Geonosis was ideal as a base for droid foundries in many regards: it was home to a technologically advanced but independent species, the Geonosians, who could monitor and aid in droid production; its rugged, forbidding terrain more or less isolated it from outsiders, and its large underground caverns provided excellent camouflage against prying eyes. Another prime benefit of locating the foundries on Geonosis was the planet's mineral-rich ring-system, used to provide the factories with ample raw metal and alloys. Like most other BAW production facilities, the foundries on Geonosis were highly automated, requiring some sentient oversight and a steady flow of raw materials but little else. Each facility boasted hundreds of conveyor belts and robot assembly arms, capable of creating thousands of droids per day from scratch. Some of the main droid models produced by foundries on Geonosis included the B-1 battle droids, B-2 battle droids, and the powerful Droidekas. Droids produced at these foundries likely saw first action at the Battle of Geonosis, where they were defeated by Republic forces.

Execution Arena

The Petranaki Arena, commonly known as the Geonosian execution arena, was brought about by both a need for entertainment in the rigid Geonosian society, and an efficient way of disposing of otherwise resource-draining prisoners. The most popular attractions used deadly beasts in combat, resulting in the extinction of some of the more crowd-pleasing creatures on Geonosis. Those looking to trade with Geonosis would often provide exotic predators for the arena entertainment as payment. Such creatures included acklays, nexu, reeks, and mongworsts. The arena itself was a natural formation carved out by millennia of weathering. Its floor consisted of sand and silt upon which events took place. The lower walls of the arena base included ancient low-relief carvings depicting famous battles and events. The arena could also be flooded if needed for aquatic events. A large tunnel connected the arena to an underground Geonosian droid factory.

A Day at the Arena

From the notes of Jocasta Nu, Jedi Archivist.

During my stay on Geonosis, I was invited to witness an event that had not taken place there since the Republic liberation, an arena spectacle. The Republic interim governor of Geonosis, a charming young human by the name of Kren Blista-Vanee, explained, as he escorted me on his personal shuttle, that in order to show the Republic's goodwill towards the Geonosians, he'd decided to allow the return of the ancient Geonosian gladiatorial tradition. As barbaric as he found it, he said it should please the masses, and maybe put a stop to the constant nuisance of pocket insurrections. Arriving at the Petranaki Arena was a spectacle in itself. A swarm of flying Geonosians filled the sky, funneling into the huge natural formation of the arena, its rocky spires darting ominously into the cinnamon morning sky. We landed in a private hangar and were taken through the solemn galleried entrance chamber, which much reminded me of the Jedi Temple's Sacred Spires interior. Clone troopers escorted me and some Republic dignitaries straight to the governor's box (previously the archducal box). The arena uncurtained before me, the vast enclosed space teeming with anticipation, the grand stands seemingly alive with thousands of Geonosians perched on it all the way to the top, and their constant buzzing and clicking creating an ever present humming noise. However, the scars of the recent battle were still all around to be seen. A whole section of the stands was destroyed, although some Geonosians still managed to perch on it somehow; the stone was scorched by blaster fire, and even the private box I stood in was charred, as if someone had used a flamethrower on it. A sudden rise in the constant noise made me aware that four wingless Geonosians had made their way into the center of the arena floor, armed with crude melee weapons. Governor Blista-Vanee assured me that we were not about to witness a public execution; he would never allow such a thing. These four workers had volunteered to fight.

If they survived it, they would achieve as much status as is possible for a Geonosian from the low caste. That meant some fame and fortune, and the right to be recognized by the Geonosian aristocrats, though not as equals. It was the only hope for an aspiring drone. A much greater rise in the noise indicated that the guest of honor had entered the silt and sand floor, a gundark. I had never actually seen one before, though Obi-Wan Kenobi had told me some nasty tales about them. The picadors didn't even get down to the floor; they simply opened the gate and the four-armed beast charged in. Blista-Vanee explained that the gundark had been a gift from a visiting Bothan representative. When I confronted him about the fact that it was illegal to hunt or capture gundarks, he answered that it had been already there when he arrived, and he had no better way to deal with the irregular creature than to put it to good use in the arena. Instead of carrying on with the argument, I decided to just focus on the arena floor below. As soon as the gundark sensed the four Geonosians, it charged at them madly. The drones tried to form a defensive formation with their spears, but the hulk simply shrugged them aside, grappling and crushing the first one with its four clawed paws. Two of the drones dove behind a fallen stone pillar, while the other stabbed the gundark's side with a spear. The beast howled and lashed out at the Geonosian with such force that it nearly tore him in half. Then it went hunting around the pillar for the remaining two. While one stood his ground, the other circled around and climbed the fallen pillar, preparing to pounce on the gundark from behind. He nearly succeeded, but while in midair, the creature sensed him and lashed out with its claws. His spear was shattered and the disarmed worker landed on the gundark's head. The beast grabbed him with its top arms, pulling him down as the helpless drone feebly pulled at his large ears. Grappling now with its four arms, the gundark lowered the Geonosian and swiftly bit his head off. I never saw what happened to the last Geonosian, as I left the box in disgust and took a shuttle straight to the spaceport. Somehow I don't think he ever attained fame and fortune.

Orray

Hardy pack animals used by the Geonosians, orrays were leathery-skinned quadrupeds with great strength and a quick gait. They were used to haul heavy loads, and as mounts for the picadors found in the Geonosis execution arena. Before their domestication by the Geonosians, orrays would use their long snouts to root into the sensitive egg chambers of a new Geonosian hive, devouring thousands of larvae in a single meal.

Acklay

The acklay originally hailed from the lushly fertile planet of Vendaxa, a world with a dense ecosystem that produced predators of nightmarish proportions. Acklay were diurnal creatures that hunted for drowsy nocturnal lemnai and speared them with their immense claws. When offworld interests began coming to Geonosis for droid and technology contracts, they would occasionally pay the Archduke with exotic beasts to fill the Geonosian execution arena. The acklay was a prized specimen delivered decades ago, and the Geonosians took to breeding them for arena entertainment. Escaped acklays resulted in the deaths of entire hives, and the spiny creatures quickly carved themselves a niche in the brutal Geonosian ecology. They infested the shallow filmy brine of the Ebon Sea, becoming the dominant predator of the area. The acklay was well equipped for survival in the harshest of environs. Its long postcranial frill not only served as a display of aggression, but also protected the sensitive neck area from attacks. While the acklay itself lacked armor, its limbs were long enough that it could swipe from a safe distance. The acklay's forward slashing claws were actually hypertrophied fingertips sheathed in hardened skin incapable of feeling pain.

Nexu

Nexu were feline creatures native to the forest of Indona, on the planet of Cholganna. Forest nexu had a set of eyes able to view in infrared wavelength, aiding in their hunting. They were often exported and trained as security beasts, as used for patrolling on Malastare, or used in arena combat, as seen on Geonosis. They appeared to be cat-like in nature, with claws which could slice a man in half. They had spikes along their back, and a long tail. They also had extremely sharp instincts and reflexes; however, they easily tired out, using their fast movements to finish an enemy quickly.

Reek

The reek was a large thick-skinned, horned quadruped, native of Ylesia, and also found in ranches on the Codian Moon and Tatooine.

They were not very intelligent creatures since they needed to be constantly shocked by a Geonosian to attack.

Chapter Five: The Battle of Geonosis

"Begun, the Clone War has." — Jedi Master Yoda

The first battle of the Clone Wars came about after Separatist forces captured Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi on Geonosis and charged him with spying for the Republic. His Padawan Anakin Skywalker and Senator Padmé Amidala attempted to rescue Kenobi, but were also captured and sentenced to death. The Galactic Senate granted Supreme Chancellor Palpatine "emergency powers" to deal with the crisis. A group of about 212 Jedi, led by Jedi Masters Mace Windu, Luminara Unduli, Shaak Ti, and Kit Fisto were sent to Geonosis by the Jedi Council to rescue Obi-Wan and investigate reports that Separatists were constructing an army on Geonosis. After deploying into the arena in which Kenobi, Skywalker and Amidala were to be executed, in the hope of scaring the Geonosians into surrender, the Jedi were ambushed by a massive droid army. It had been a trap, and a great number of Jedi died due to their lack of military organization. The few Jedi who remained were forced into a circle, prepared to make their last stand, but at the last minute they were rescued by the timely arrival of Jedi Master Yoda leading the Republic clone army grown in secret on Kamino. After the rescue of the Jedi, the droid and clone armies engaged one another in a complex series of engagements on a number of different fronts, across Geonosis' wastelands. The Republic's army landed in twelve Acclamator-class assault ships, offloading infantry, armored vehicles, artillery and air support. The Separatist army consisted of droid infantry of varying strength and larger droid-controlled vehicles. Crucially, the Republic conducted an aerial bombardment of the Separatists' fighter craft, allowing the Republic's gunships to maintain air superiority throughout much of the battle. Although the clone troopers were vastly outnumbered by droids, the droids were heavily exposed to attacks from the air by Republic gunships. The Republic's armoured AT-TEs were strong against the lightly armored spider droids employed by the Separatists, but were vulnerable to the rockets on the hailfire droids. The Republic gunships, again, were instrumental in clearing away the hailfire droids and allowing the AT-TEs to establish superiority on the battlefield. Having beaten the droid army into retreat, Yoda took note of the fact that much of the Separatist starfleet was still grounded receiving shipments of droids when the Republic attacked. Lightly armored and vulnerable Techno Union starships attempted to withdraw immediately, but many were destroyed in the first wave of attacks from the Republic gunships. The Jedi Master now ordered the army's heavy artillery to attempt to take down as many of the Trade Federation Core Ships as possible, as they each held hundreds of thousands of deadly battle droids. The Republic was successful in this, but it became evident that, despite taking control of the surface of the planet, they were unable to capture the Separatist leadership and stop the war before it began. In the midst of the battle, the Separatist leader Count Dooku tried to escape to a hangar where his starship was located. A gunship carrying Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala gave chase. Upon arriving at Dooku's hangar, the gunship was hit by a stray blast. Padmé fell from the gunship and lay unconscious on the desert sands. Anakin and Obi-Wan continued their pursuit and engaged Dooku in a lightsaber duel. Dooku bested them both, grievously wounding Obi-Wan and severing Anakin's arm, and was only stopped by the arrival of Master Yoda. After a fierce battle of Force powers and lightsabers, Dooku escaped by threatening the fallen Kenobi and Skywalker. Dooku returned to Coruscant and met with Darth Sidious, reporting that the Clone Wars had begun.

Master Yoda faces off against Count Dooku.

Clone Trooper

Clone troopers were soldiers bred and trained to serve as the Republic's first ever military force during the conflict that came to be known as the Clone Wars. Born and raised in the stilt-cities of Kamino, the clone troops, trained and drilled since birth, came to be regarded as one of the best military forces ever to have existed in the Galaxy's history. This was not only due to their unrivaled training, but also to their unwavering loyalty to the Galactic Republic and its leader, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. The first series of clone trooper armor (designated Phase I armor) consisted of 20 form-fitting plastoid-alloy composite plates sealed to a temperature-control body glove via magnatomic gription panels. Jango Fett's Mandalorian heritage influenced the design of the armor, as seen in the t-shaped visor plate. The Kaminoans' aesthetic influence was also visible, in its stark coloration and detailing. As the Kaminoans were not fully versed in human ergonomics, the armor was uncomfortable to sit in, though future generations of the suit corrected this flaw. The clone trooper helmet included a comlink and enhanced breath filter for combat in hostile environments. The unique clone trooper identification number was embedded in each clone's DNA. The clones themselves had no physical markings indicating their unique identities. A special scanner incorporated into the clone trooper helmet identified the trooper and this info was displayed on a tiny LED viewscreen incorporated in the back of the helmet. The information displayed on the helmet could also be transmitted to a central location so that combat commanders could "track" a battle. In the first units, color-coded flashes on the armor denoted rank, with green troopers being sergeants, blue being lieutenants, red being captains, and yellow being commanders. The clones designated for command duty were specifically trained in that capacity in advanced academies on Kamino. A variant in armor and training also created Clone Pilots, assigned to operate the army's diverse machines of war.

SPHA-T

The Self-Propelled Heavy Artillery (SPHA) walker was a modular artillery unit used by the Grand Army of the Republic during the Battle of Geonosis. Developed by Rothana Heavy Engineering, a covert subsidiary of Kuat Drive Yards, the SPHA walker was designed to fulfill the role of mobile ground-based long-range artillery support. In development of the system, engineers on Rothana essentially had to build their prototype around the requirements of the primary weapon: a large, dorsally-mounted external weapon assembly, a powerful reactor core to fulfill the weapon's high energy requirements, and all of the necessary support equipment and crew stations. In order to save weight, designers rejected a complex turreting mechanism, instead relying on the entire walker to reposition in order to adjust for different firing coordinates. Like other walkers, the use of articulated legs prevented the SPHA from being vulnerable to anti-repulsorlift weapons, at the cost of some mobility. The result of this development process was a walker that possessed a very capable capital-ship class weapon, but was hampered by its low mobility and lack of heavy armor. The powerful reactor core used to provide power to the main weapon was susceptible to meltdowns when under enemy fire, causing tremendous collateral damage. As such, SPHA units were used primarily in safe firebases, far behind friendly lines and guarded heavily.

AT-TE

The All Terrain Tactical Enforcer (AT-TE) was an all-terrain assault walker and the first precursor of the AT-AT walker. The AT-TE was a multi-purpose assault vehicle capable of tasks that ranged from transporting platoons of clone troopers around a battlefield to full-scale attacks upon enemy installations. The AT-TE performed most admirably in support roles that involved providing cover fire for battalions of soldiers at once. They were very often deployed in large swarms so as to overwhelm the enemy with sheer volume of fire. The walker was also impervious to ion damage due to built-in electromagnetic shielding. The walker had a top speed of 60 kmh, more than fast enough to flank or outmaneuver a surprised foe. This plodding pace allowed it to penetrate energy shields, a feat that was impossible for repulsorlift craft. It contained enough fuel to stride at full speed for over 500 kilometers, and possessed enough scrubbed air and military rations to last its crew for three weeks out in the harsh conditions of the battlefield. Seven specially trained crew members were needed for this monstrosity to achieve its full potential.

Carrier Gunship

The Low Altitude Assault Transport/carrier was a carrier gunship employed by the Grand Army of the Republic during the Battle of Geonosis. These atmospheric transports were also referred to as LAAT/c Gunships or colloquially, AT-TE Carriers. The Rothana Heavy Engineering LAAT/carrier variant was designed primarily to airlift assault walkers and other heavy cargo into battle. Similar in design to the LAAT/i version, the carrier gunship removed the infantry model's troop hold, and featured heavy-lift agrav drives that held payloads in place under the main hull. A wide wingspan allowed for maximum distribution of repulsorlift vanes when carrying heavy weights.

Attack Gunship

The Low Altitude Assault Transport (LAAT) was a specialized gunship used by the Grand Army of the Republic. The LAAT was affectionately known as the "larty" by the clone troopers. The LAATs first appeared at the Battle of Geonosis, where they rescued the surviving Jedi from the execution arena, disabled and destroyed many of the fleeing Separatist capital ships and destroyed many of the Hailfire droids on the battlefield. The gunships mounted numerous weapons emplacements, including three blasters, two single and two twin composite-beam lasers, eight anti-aircraft rockets, and two mass drivers for launching larger missile weapons. They were equipped with atmospheric containment shielding and could be deployed from space, but their optimal fighting range was still in the lower atmosphere.

Dwarf Spider Droid

The dwarf spider droid, also known as the burrowing spider droid because it was first used to destroy opposition in narrow mine shafts, was a battle droid manufactured by the Commerce Guild to support the cause of the Separatists. It was similar in function to a typical combat vehicle. It was also used to punish customers who had declined to pay their taxes to the Commerce Guild. Its main weapon was a central laser cannon mounted on its face to look like a nose. The droid's small frame and four all-terrain legs made it suitable for warfare in dangerous mines. However, because of the fixed laser cannon, it could not turn around to track enemies, thus making it inferior to speedy targets.

Hailfire Droid

The Hailfire-class droid tank was a self-aware mobile missile platform capable of destroying entire platoons of enemy soldiers. It was well equipped, with missile launchers fitted on each side of its head; each missile rack carrying 30 guided rocket warheads powerful enough to cause terrible damage to enemy targets. A well-placed shot with one of these missiles was enough to destroy a Republic AT-TE walker. Each Hailfire droid also had a retractable double blaster for use against infantry and other "soft" targets. The Hailfire droid ran on large hoop-like wheels on either side of the main armored command module, which enabled it to operate on almost any terrain. Before the Clone Wars, the Hailfire droid was used by the Banking Clan to punish customers who had declined to pay their debts. Hailfire droids first appeared as part of the army of the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Battle of Geonosis, where they disabled or destroyed numerous AT-TEs and injured or killed countless clone troopers before being destroyed by Republic gunships.

Homing Spider Droid

The OG-9 Homing Spider Droid, sometimes referred to as the Spider Walker, was a droid walker manufactured for anti-vehicular combat by the Commerce Guild. Like the other combat automata deployed by the Commerce Guild, the homing spider droids were originally developed to enforce the Guild's laws and to ensure that its customers paid their debts. The homing droid's round, armoured body contained a volatile reactor. If the core was breached, the reactor violently exploded. The homing spider could cover wide areas of the battlefield with its four all-terrain legs. Because of its great height and extendable hydraulics, the walker could position its homing laser above enemy targets or move to higher ground to blast at air vehicles. However, the legs were vulnerable to damage, and if just one hydraulic leg was disabled, the entire vehicle would crash to the ground. Despite its weaknesses, the homing spider could walk along the bottom of seabeds, fully submerged in water, as well as scale steep cliffs. The spider walker's chief weapon was a laser emplacement mounted above the droid's round body. This circular dish fired a precision homing laser that could be maintained until the drone's target was destroyed.

Techno Union Starship

The Hardcell-class interstellar transport was a capital ship used by both the Techno Union and the InterGalactic Banking Clan. These vessels were deployed to travel between star systems for striking business deals, scouting and collecting taxes from member companies. Nine Hardcells were used in the fleet Kinman Doriana was assigned to destroy Outbound Flight. It resembled a tall, towering rocket and was 220 meters long. The Hardcell also had six primary thruster units around its base that were capable of offering a fast take-off speed of 4,000 kmh. In space, the thrusters could change modes, and could also push a Hardcell to sublight speeds of 400 MGLT. These starships were designed to work in space and in planetary atmospheres. These thrusters could generate retro-rocket thrust for vertical landings at speed of 800 kmh. Just before touchdown, the starship could deploy a huge set of tripedal landing gears for stabilization on the ground. Some variants even featured landing claws for landing on low-gravity planetoids. All Hardcells had hyperdrive systems, defenses and powerful light support systems. The conical nose on the upper portion of the craft had quarters for the organic crew, command decks and medical decks.

Trade Federation Core Ship

After the Battle of Naboo, the Republic ordered the Trade Federation to disband its military forces. The Trade Federation pretended to comply with this command by apparently disassembling most of its battleships, only to transform their centrispheres into detachable Lucrehulk-class core ships capable of carrying supplies. These core ships were seen during the Battle of Geonosis, where they carried legions of battle droids. To allow these colossal freighters to land planetside and take on supplies, they were equipped with massive repulsorlift suspensor units installed on their ventral section. In addition to these repulsorlift units, a ventral ion-thruster allowed for an expeditious launch and ascent, and once in space allowed a core ship to travel outside the gravity well of the planet. The core ship was also equipped with numerous landing legs, though these were never demonstrated to support the full weight of the ship without repulsorlift assistance for more than an hour. The hierarchical arrangement of living quarters on a core ship resembled that of Neimoidian hives. The command bridges, executive suites and treasuries were located in the core ship's upper pole and towers. Lower levels were for junior managers, publicists and droid storage. While engineering areas and conference rooms were located on the lowest levels of the core ship, these decks tended to be shunned by high-ranking Trade Federation officials, as the officers preferred to send in droids.

Closing Notes from the Jedi Archives

From the notes of Jocasta Nu, Jedi Archivist.

In this time of great uncertainty, darkness and upheaval, we Jedi must remain vigilant. The Sith have returned, the Republic stands on the brink, and a great many Jedi have already perished. None will be spared. In this time of need is when the prophecy of the Chosen One will surely either be fulfilled or proven false. Which will be, no one truly knows. In a galaxy where it seems the day-to-day struggles of conflicting interests are insurmountable, remember we are all in this together. We must work together, or we are doomed to suffer together.

May The Force Be With You, May The Force Be With Us All.
